Why is that wrong? Loads of people have done it.A c20xe can get 200bhp easier than a zetec.

Not that wrong to be honest. Its still standard on the outside and if it has hidden power (of any kind) then its worth it IMO.

I'm all for it, that's a good engine and it's nice to have some variation in the scene.

only thing that is wrong is that he didnt conver the dis to a coil pack to save hacking the bulkhead up to fit it!

bloody good engine the c20xe's. they can not really be faulted, apart from the cheaper cast heads on the later ones as they go pourous. Loads better than a zetec engine in terms of reliability, performance and tuning ability per pound spent.

How is it technically a ford engine tho? if you are refering to the earlier coscast head's... that doesnt make it a ford engine!

xe 's are an awsome engine, i'm all for it but i know it upsets some people, sacreligious some might say :rolleyes:

i think it would be a shame so do it to a genuine RS or mexico but if you can save a shell from the scrapyard the go for it

but the max power sticker !!!!!! :o

a 2oosx lump sounds fun too

:aviator:


a mate of mine wanted to put a 200sx engine in one! i told him he was bloody stupid as they are about as reliable as a train is likely to arrive on time!

he ended up selling the car on as he couldnt be bothered with it and is building a R32 GTR 4dr skyline at the moment which owes him about 1k to 1.5k for the whole thing including the body kit! its going to be a very cheap track car and drift toy for him.
