as said the body kit is from a MK1 Mondeo which was the closest car in size to the Granada so the kit has had to be modified to fit that modification work has not yet been completed it has just been fitted to the car and has ben painted just so it is all one colour as I have a show season to do as I am the events organizer for the Granada 123 club and have no time to work on the car at the mo and I would not expect you to spray an unfinished car and the spoilers are there because I wish to be different yes they are not to every body's liking I am also a member of Granada and Scorpio online forum where the car has not had one bad comment there are a lot nice cars on this site which are all individual to the owner own idea's and I would not dream of critzing them for what they have done to there cars if I like them or not thats what they want to do to there cars its up to them and I think you have been far to over critical of something that is not finished and I do not have a workshop so its al being done on my drive and in my very small garage and Rome was not built in a day

I personally love Granadas, but think they are best left looking close to standard.

i havent even seen a granada on the road for a long long time tbh

Mr.T

Right... i love the idea of the cossie turbo. But the rest of the car?? And there was me thinking you couldnt fuck up a scorpio But serieus. Like the engine loose the horrible body kit. Loose the chrome arches. And the rest...

Mr.T

Must be a reason for that

Hi yes you can and they are very few and far between now and as said I wished to be different as I have a Granada RS kit in the loft of my garage and as you say its worth Ł200+ I only paid Ł50 for the one on the car and as I said its about individuality everybody has their own idea's weather they are right or wrong and the body kit is being changed soon any way as the one on the car has been damaged which is why it also looks a mess at the mo and I could say I done like the mods on your cars but they are your idea's and you like what you have done to your cars and if I did not think the look worked then I would not have carried out the mod

I don't quite know where the idea comes from that all the stuff on my car comes from every car shop in the land as it dose not and yes mat your car is very nice we have a Cossie just as good in the 123 club and I like it because its a mint Granada Cossie and its where the engine should be and long may it live as there are not many of them left as people keep breaking them for there engines to put in Sierra's and Capri's and loads of other Fords but for me a standard car is boring I drive for a living and see standard boring cars every day Granada and Scorpio online is not the only forum I am on I am also on Powered by Ford,Scorpio unleased,Your Ford,S2RS and Ford Sport and none of these sites have slagg my car off like you guys but I don't really care what you lot think I like my car and when its finished and painted properly I will like it even more and that's all I have to say so you lot can go to hell

Not my cup of tea by a long shot, but imagine how fucking gutted you would be if that thing hands your arse to you

Ginger Will

As I said earlier if you take a step back and like what you see, then you are in luck. However if you post up a car on a website, you will get a response. You are not however going to always get the response you might want.


I think that your car would benefit from the removal of the spoiler. Chunkier wheels; as I think the lightweight versions you have are out of proportion. I also think that you have put loads of badges on which are tacky. In my opinion.

That is my response. You may or may not like it. I am not bothered either way.

I,ve got a granade do you want to see it in action ?

Hi Wil yes mate to me thats constructive critizism thats something I can take as idea's can always be bundled about but some people on here are being dam right nasty and called my car a pile of shit how would they like it I did the same to them they would be offended and yes there cars I like on here and there are cars I don't like and Rob DOHC as for my dress sense happens to be very good

i dont understand how u can run an 18? a granada cosworth runs 16s? so add a turbo a manual box and 100kg worth of fiberglass and u loose 2 seconds?
my p100 thats un aerodynamic, 4x4 with a slipping viscuss, full tank and a standard engine bar a power chip and some other little tweeks runs a 15.
i dont much rate the top boss guy, id blame him!! ... lol

Kam B

bloody hell guys, you lot are horrible.

There are ways of saying things. He said WIP

Mate good project, just keep external subtle and concentrate on making it mint on the outside and powerful on the inside. Would make a nice car mate. Must sound good

Rob_DOHC

iTrader: (4)

Mate you've been seriously demoted, enterprise to granada.... what happened?



Don't be too upset that people dont like your car fella...



and for the record i don't think your a twat as said above, i think thats a bit harsh, i just think your a bit misguided. I love the 24v cosworth lump, would probably go for a twin turbo setup in a sierra, but congratulations on giving it a go.


Rob,

Funny as fuck Rob.

Noones having a go at you because you havent finished the paint or its a work in progress, they are having a go because youve picked a godawful bodykit from a different car and tried to make a fit a car which it looks even worse on. Whats with all the badges?

Youve done a good job with the engine but please spend the rest of the time tidying up the wiring etc and not sticking on tat that doesnt compliment the car. I dont go to work in a suit wearing one pink frigging wellington with a pet hamster glued to the side, theres a reason for that. If youre going to think outside the box then you need to have some sort of an eye for it. Also as a designer that sticker font down the side of the car makes my eyes bleed and looks like it was done by a 5 yr old in MS word, seriously, if you must have stickers at least use the matching granada or ford type face.

This is abit harsh guys TBH, I do agrea that its not a good look but the engine has had some time put into it and I like that.
Dont like the body work one bit, and I think its best left as standard with suitable mods.

alanfordtw-15

im not going to add anything to whats already been said cos what im interested in is the engine and will give you the benifit of the doubt that its a wip.
what size turbo is it, any internal work done and what does it go like?
