Oh no cant believe you given it up for Jap crap
I know where your coming from, mines been off the road for two years now and although i feel ive done a fair amount on it im really only nibbling away at it now and then when i should be getting stuck in, everything else seems to get priority
Sometime i lose the motivation to carry on and finish the RS, but then i think how much ive spent and think jeez i cant turn back now!
Have fun with your new car mate

saying as i've already got a lot of bits still lying around in the garage, ive decided to close this thread by finishing the engine to a lower spec than originally intended.

Charlie Chalk thats not a cuppa radders, its a new kind of oil cooler... its disguise helps prevent it being nicked when on display at shows.
a zetec S fiesta would be pretty nifty... bit of a sleeper
pistons n rods together
2 breather fittings and one oil return fitting
exhaust manifold components
