[FRST SILVER]

thought its about time to get a thread up on my escort cosworth...

after selling my silver frst just over a year ago i searched high and low for an AURALIS BLUE escort cosworth...

found this on pistonheads. it was up for £16,600,, then dropped to £15,600,, after about 100 emails + texts and drivin up to newcastle i bought her for the sum of £12,000

the car has 3 owners, 70,000 miles, full lux pack, stacks + stacks of old m.o.ts , reciepts and bills..

the spec of the car when i got it was

big turbo conversion ( done by zoo motorsport )
level 8 pectal board
dark greens
3 bar map sensor
cams have been done
mongoose exhaust
organic ap clutch
few other bits + bobs

heres a few pics of when i bought her

18" rondells fully refurbed
quads
carbon fibre splitter package
RS 500 spot light grills

slimline fans
uprated front brakes ( brembo )

Beautiful car mate

[Brammer]

Wow that is absolutely amazing, great spec too

[jonboisescort]

that going to look great once done

[MattPym]

Gorgeous car!!....Well wear

[FRST SILVER]

cheers for the comments fellas...

i had a complete nightmare getting the intercooler to fit as i wanted to keep the original air-con system, most people just do anyway with it when fitting larger intercoolers , and had to cut the front cut about and new plates welded in .. took its time but was well worth it in the end as i managed to keep all the original air-con pipework + radiator .. ( so its still all standard escort cozzy bits if it does ever go wrong )

Wow that is absolutely amazing, great spec too

i recently read the feature on your car ( must say that is a stunning 3 door ).. noticed you also have the wasted spark kit from msd... did you wire in yourself... ive already got the wasted spark kit and anti lag and launch control, but i no it all needs to be set up again once fitted. so i might just wait until around march and plan a weekend down blackpool and let msd do it all for me, as they chipped the car after the big turbo conversion was done.. might also get them to fit an air injecter whilst there

[MENACE]

glad you have finally put a post up mate.need to put the pics up of it all fitted back together trust me people looks stunning was well amazed at the finish.

[FRSJON]

Looks like a really good job there, although you've got a job on your hands getting the primer off of the door loom connector pins

[FRST SILVER]

good old thinners comes to the rescue there

ive started the underside of the car over winter... what a nightmare, be worth it in the end
