Depends on diff ratio, tyre size, gearbox used, carburation, tuning of engine and lots of things sounds good to me tho

Hey guys been looking round but cant seem to find why 2.8 billys are better than normal escort struts. All i seem to find is 'Billys are better' just cant find why, so if someone can tell me why that would be great

Pure

Thicker strut tubes so basically stronger, unless rallying shouldnt need to change from standard

Did customs not charge you anything?

Theres two size strut tops, sounds like your car is the small type and you have ordered the large ones

Not off trademe,been sitting hidden away in a "half" shed for some years,Drivers side is fairly bad,passagers is pretty mint,Trying to source another shell to use for pannels etc,Thank god the doors are pretty perfect and dont need replacing be a tall task finding some.

Plans are to get body straight and go from there.....Zetec or somthing maybe a idea for motor

Get in touch with hrdengines on trademe, they may be able to help with your two door bits.

Presume you are talking mk2 escort? http://www.burtonpower.com/esclens3.html

Ahh its so nice to see my sport In your Sig bigfoot haha.

Im in Whangarei too, Mk2 Esky Van and a Mk2 Sport ^^ Red one there

PM Mackaz he might be able to help, cant say I know much bout toyotas 's

Fuel supply issue perhaps

See that driving around all the time

What sort of car?

On the flange where it mounts to the manifold is a stamping with DGAV 32/36 3D3 etc

bloody awesome...is that lemon yellow??

Suzuki - Champion yellow

Looking good! Can you still get fishnet recaros?

I think the ones I got are out of a bighorn or something, Had them tidied up at a auto upholster

yes! i was secretly hopeing that they were 175/50s. pretty much sold me on getting some now haha cheers. where did you get them from/how muchies?

Got them thru Deon ( MACKAZ ) at the local firestone

13x7 rims, Yokohama a539s 175/50/13's on em

Wheels on and lowered a bit, front should come down a bit with the HEAVYWEIGHT Pinto in there

New shocks front and back, just KYB's

Maybe a stuck valve? Or really taking abit to work the oil into itself? Reading much higher pressure than the other new pump?

Makes you wish burtons wasnt half the world away doesnt it! Certainly sounds like the pump is at fault, pin etc holding gear to shaft all in place? Dont rip it apart otherwise they might not replace.

Stick with the new one, or would you rather a wrecked engine? Not worth mucking around with the old one imo

Day/Time: Evenings

Preferred vehicle: Toyota 7 race car for P1 class until I get something beter Posibly mazda cosmo for gt2 class

Sounds like I am going to have some fun getting this car through on more than one front in the end. Even with my card! But it will be worth doing in the long run. I just want to be able to use the car on the road when ever I like so may have to rig up some for of inertia system in there. Pain in teh arse but if its needed.

Then try get the Mk1 through with no rear belts! Its going to be bad enough fitting a high level brake light...ouch!

Cheers for the input all

Dave...

Dont worry about rear seat belts for the mk1, cars older than 1979 dont need to have them, took a passenger in the back of the cortina the other day and relised it didnt have any rear belts!

You holding out on me??

Lol, no I had two, the one you got was in that lot of parts, my other ive had for years...

Rotor is pointing at number one in this pic, set it from that

Low speed circuit on carb may be blocked or mixture set very lean, or timing out
