A few years ago i had a rev1 n/a and stuck a bomex front bumper and veilside skirts and rear bumper on.I loved it but just wasnt quick enough so swapped it for a Rover coupe turbo running 250bhp.That was quick enough but an offer came up to swap for a 1 owner escort rs turbo.I swapped but it turned out to be rotten so i swapped what i could inc.the engine to a cabriolet shell. Then this rev2 turbo came up so i swapped my cab turbo and £500 for this.I think i got a right bargain!!OK, heres the pics:
1st ones are the ones off ebay when i got it.
I cant believe we managed to drive it 150miles home without getting pulled for those number plates!! We even pulled up behind a cop car and over took it and still they never pulled us!!!
Anyway, ive since got rid of the horrible silver turbo stickers down the side bottom of doors and also ive pulled off the silver twin cam stickers on the bump strips as the previous owner didnt even put them on straight.
Heres how it looks now:
Once the money is better im hoping to go black 17s and maybe some sort of grafix down the side?!
Its currently gfot a HKS Dump valve
(Bit quiet but i like it)Departure twin exhaust
(Lovely)HKS Air Filter
and thats about it.
Im looking to fit some black 17s, boost gauge and run about 1.1bar.
Also to give it a service,cambelt and make sure all is running nicely.Then i might think of getting it resprayed and fitting a nice bodykit.
...........we will see!
