Ford Fiesta RS turbo. *Now with pic's*
by Mint FRST on Fri Sep 19, 2003 7:14 pm
1991 'J' reg, Black in colour. 87K with part S/H.
I am the 5th owner of this car and have owned it for just under 12 months.I purchased the car after really regretting selling my previous FRST. As my previous car was completely standard and very low mileage I decided I would undertake some sensible mods to this car, these include:
A brand new hybrid T2 turbo supplied by Universal turbos via ML Developments.
Amhed Bayjoo Chip (OFAC Management)
Pace Alloy intercooler
Piper X airfilter (Element in box)
White front indicator lenses (O.E. Ford Items)
Following a full service at Ford which included the cambelt the following was also replaced:
Both front lower suspension arms(O.E. Ford Correct 3 pin items)
Front A.R.B's bushes
Rear brake cylinders & Rear brake shoes (EBC)
Thermostat & Thermo switch (Fan Switch)
Alternator
4 X Brand new Pierelli 185/55/R14 tyres.
When the turbo was replaced it was evident that the radiator was shot. This was proffessinally recored. I also have a Pace alloy item which is not fitted but will be sold with the car.
The car has been fitted with the obligatory CatII immobiliser and is also alarmed,
When I brought the car it was completely standard including amber indicators and original stereo. The only mod was an aftermarket exhaust of unknown origin. This is still fitted and has a stainless 4" tailpipe.
This car is still pretty much original, it is not a show winning concourse fire breathing beast but is a nice usable example which are becomming rarer.
I am reluctant to sell this car but I do not use it and as I have a Co car and I dont have a garage for it otherwise I'd probably keep it! As I have said this car is by no means mint it does have the usual FRST problems being:
Piping worn on driver seat very slightly.
Has started to scab around the fuel filler cap.
In all I have spent over £1500.00 getting this car up to a level I wanted like most others and perhaps with alittle paint work would make an excellent example.
Sorry to witter on but this may save my own time as well as others!
£2750.00 O.V.N.O
Pics available on request!

you'll probably get a lot more interest if you resize the pictures or host the high res ones somewhere else (http://www.tripod.lycos.co.uk is good for this - free too), email is slow
