Hi,

I am posting on behave of a friend, who is deciding to buy a Zetec 2.0 powered Fiesta or a VTR. Because I don't really want him to buy a VTR, I'm seeking a Zetec 2.0 for him...

So please people, show me what you got.
Budget is maximum 2,500, but of course the cheaper the better.

Criteria
1. Must be MK3 or MK3.5 (preferred)
2. Proper Zetec 2.0 conversion done, non-turbo
3. Prefer an Si
4. No rust, or only tiny repairable rust
5. Prefer less than 100k miles done
6. Prefer not too many mods done (especially exterior)
7. 3-door
8. Prefer NOT white car
9. MOT and tax preferred

Thanks.

Anyone?

surely for £2500 you could buy a 16v si and have the conversion done yourself. mmogenius does this conversion, £700 for everything. he'll offer you about £80 for your old engine too. this is what he told me anyway

car probably wont be modded or anything but 2.0 fiestas are very rare anywayz

btw remind him that a 2.0 fez would not only completely and utterly destroy a vtr, but it would probably (from what i've heard) destroy a vts too

SantaHul :anyone got pics of his engine bay, i so wanna see it

I think its quite secret, probably due to his "custom engine mounts".

What a good feature, very nice car & spec :devil:

Arent the series 3 engines a nightmare to fit?

Are they easier to go in a MK3.5?

by **XR2i Chick** on Sat Feb 07, 2004 8:05 pm

There ya go!

Yeah but thier still a nightmare 2 fit aint they?

Depends on what you think is a nightmare. Going from a HCS to CVH is not too bad, so it would be the same depending which series zetec you get.

by **Sphinx** on Thu Feb 12, 2004 9:40 pm

Well i'm planning on goin from the 1.6 series 2 zetec in my Si to the series 2 2.0 in mondeo's purly cos its a simple(ish) conversion.
I'd LOVE to get a black top 2.0 in there but after reading excursions site on how 2 fit 1, i'm goin off the idea.

by **PaulC** on Thu Feb 12, 2004 9:59 pm

Going to another series 2 will be easy enough

Pretty much a straight swap.

So... If its so easy how come YOU didnt do your 1.0 -> 1.6 converstion then?

by **PaulC** on Thu Feb 19, 2004 6:31 pm

XR2i Chick :So... If its so easy how come YOU didnt do your 1.0 -> 1.6 converstion then?

Cos I havent got the all tools to do it and 1.0 isnt that easy to convert?

Two zetecs are both injected, so fuel tank is the same, fuel lines are the same, and dont neeed to touch the car loom.

Sswapping a zetec for a different zetec is not as big a job compared to swapping a HCS to a zetec

by **TomRS1800** on Thu Feb 19, 2004 6:39 pm

I see hes got his header tank cap on or has he still got it off?

watching with intent if you try to zetec yours..

Whats the point in putting a zetec in a shed? :lol:

by **XR2i Chick** on Mon Feb 23, 2004 2:18 pm

Well you put a 1.6 in didnt see the point there either!

by **PaulC** on Mon Feb 23, 2004 3:59 pm

XR2i Chick :Well you put a 1.6 in didnt see the point there either!

A valid point, a 1.0 is too slow tho :lol:

Plus the exhaust manifold was broke and would have meant probably f*cking the 1.0 completely anyway when trying to the the manifold off. :rolleyes:
