Pretty sure the mondeos used the 2.5 V6 duratec not the lantis motor... unless there the same i am not sure they are tho.
Yeah, had to be under 2000cc for Super tourers.
Just for fun:
I like the Carina's of rouse etc:
Dont think anyones posted this yet, def worth a look if you haven't seen it:

You can do it fairly cheap with injection but need a link ECU. Jase did it with a mk4 cortina and Subaru injection + Throttle body.

Motor, pedalbox etc in my car is from an NZTC Corona, they are were pretty mild in comparison.
My motor runs small cams - 257in 231ex with about 10mm lift and only 10:1ish compression. Pretty lame really , will give it more when I refresh the engine.
These ones were NZL:
British:

He's going next month I think.
Whereabouts is the setup? Palmy? Let me know too, pretty certain my brother would be keen on that for the VB110. He won't need to save the cash either... damn engineers.
Yeah man in palmy. PM me and I'll give you his e-mail.

I know of an SR20DET conversion w/ loom, ecu and gearbox, 140km S14 blacktop for $1000 - The dude is moving to Iraq soon so needs a quick sale.

^^^ Thats a cheap 3SGTE.
Heres a complete 3TGTE conversion:

But yeah, how much power do you want? I've seen 3tgte's with 180-200KW in the past, and it would bolt straight to your engine mounts and box.

Was mean. Do again with more people for sure!

Got Durtys wheels in the Manawatu now.
To add to this, on of the Hamilton boys is coming down next weekend and I'd say they wouldn't mind fitting some coil overs in on the way home for some gas money.

Sweet man saves me from possibility of getting lost in Wellington!
-
Thats pretty fast from what I remember . I went real slow in their buggy with bald front tyres in the rain + spun.
Hilarious with no sway bar btw.
-
Oh yeah 0274444222 tell me where they are in Wel. I'll be in mount vic / at the hospital.
-
I'm in wellington tomorrow afternoon and going to Hamilton on Saturday with Simon. Could do that for you if you want to chip in some gas?
... Provided they fit in the corona with 4 15's and 5 tyres ... Could always add a trailer.

Whats going sparkle? It at your house? I'm going with so can direct him to Manson if it's there/

Yeah I would definitely change the pads! I fitted Metalkings to my car and gave the discs a skim before even looking at the track, and every openday I've been to someone cooks their brakes and either cant make it home, or have to go to repco during the day.
Plus I would hope that he will get more than 3 6-8 lap runs! That would be a pathetic day out . It's a trackday so anything under 100km of track time is a rip off .
-
brake pads are all near new i am going to do a rear pad change as they arent good quality, i have metal kings in the front tho and fluid is allready dot 5 less, than a couple months old, might re bleed them when i change pads/quote]
Is it Dot5 or Dot5.1?
If it's dot 5 get rid of it, because thats silicone fluid and it does really funny things to your pedal when under stress.
Otherwise, same copy what everyone else has said and paste it here. My first time out I had no idea about how the car actually handled, spun out a few times and learned a lot! Then first wet trackday spun out more often and learned even more!
So long as you're not being a dick, or a wuss you should be fine.

How many do you need? Just get in touch with a screen printers, there is bound to be at least one in the south island . The place I've been dealing with supply everything you need and make the screen up for $20 if it's easy to cut, then add the price for shirts and each print.... They generally do good bulk rates for 10+ shirts.
Im getting 20 shirts done in the next couple of weeks and they are going to cost about $25 each for nice quality shirts + a different print front and rear.
-
Aww man! Those wheels were good as seats.... But appear to be better as wheels!
-
Sweet man, this is a bit different. You don't see many people that do NA SR conversions... I think they should be more common.
Good car for some club sprints etc to get you into racing.
-
I am keen.
If Palmy folk would like a lift and to split costs of gasoline, then let me know, I will be taking a sensible late model family car.
Keen - Pending confirmation of work off Sat morning.

Where does that go at the moment? It's hard to tell.
Is the bend at the end the start of an over-diff setup?
M & H Mufflers.. from segedins, Flowmaster copies. Anyone

If it's a flowmaster type then you normally get a good sound, depends greatly on the motor and other components of the exhaust though.
