basicly, i want to put a better engine in,at the moment it has a 1.6 CVH EFI engine which is ok, but not perfect, so i want either a ZVH turbo, or a 2.0 zetec turbo, which one would you recommend and how much would it cost?

looks mint mate

[XRMike]

thanks, very much appreciated, its gonna be a long project but it will get there!

what came with the car..........£108

random number, you shoulda chucked in the £2

[XRMike]

this was the car when i got it,


i got it for £108 because i got it from where i work, and i had discount.

Sell it meeeeeee I love black.

Personally I'd put a 1600 CVH Turbo in it. Cheaper and still a good engine. ZVH and ZT will cause many-a-headache and be very pricey.

why is the numberplate stuck on the side of the bumper ! [/quote]

[XRMike]

ready for when i put my intercooler in the bumper and it looks different

[XRMike]

oh, and it also came with XR2i recaro interior, heated front screen. its done 94.000 miles. ive heard that a black top focus engine fits an 1.6 XR2i easily.

looks quality mate, always wanted a black one with the blue stripe, looks stunning. I want a ZVH turbo, but as said, you almost always get trouble and end up spending tons more than its really worth. Stick a 2.0l zetec in, if ain't fast enough then unless you are a die hard Fiesta fan then i'd go for something else.

Not easily, no.


(this guide might help you work out what you can put in there though)

is this the car you bought from the scrappy ? if it is then youve done a hell of a lot of work to it well done mate it looks gorgeous, i'm wondering if my fezzy should be black now i always thought my colour was the best mercury grey but yours looks quality

[XRMike]

i didnt buy the car from a scrappy, i bought it from a salvage car auction called Universal Salvage where i work, it had a lot of ignition damage, the door was bent( its kinked to death now as i have bent it back untill i get another) and it was immobilised. the car was standard when i got it. i dont want to go ott with it on looks etc because ive kinda got it how i want it on the outside, ive sorted out the suspension too. next on the list to do are
a zetec S beam with focus disks,new engine and tidying up of bodywork.
im not in a rush to finish it, and with sourcing the parts too that i need it will take a while, but i dont mind. thanks for the comments.

there is also more pictures in my profile

nice car. how much is it lowered at the back? plus what size tyres do you have?

pete.

[XRMike]

im not to sure how much it is lowered by because the springs and shocks were second hand, but they are konis. the wheels are 16" granada scorpio wheels with 195/45/16 inch tyres with 5mm spacers on the rear. they rub a little but not often, and i am going to limit my full lock a little. cheers for the comments

[XRMike]

just a quick question, does anybody know if an xr2i head is different to an rs turbo fiesta head? cheers

[XRMike]

anyone please? cheers
