Snoozin Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Yah, rims need some attention, two of em are curbed quite bad, all good however, shouldn't be to spendy to get them repaired. Other than that, the usual hours and hours with the polishing buff will bring them up good as. Star exhaust FTL, I'm not ruining it like that muntface.

cute wee gem Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hey, can you tell me where you got those lights from or where you can get some?, my mate is after some for a mk2 escort Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolan Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 I sourced them for him. alledgedly they're not all that easy to find in NZ etc... these ones wont fit escort, not sure whether they're available for 7" round, and wouldn't imagine they'd do squares to fit an escort. Is he running round? I can find out if they're available if need be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cute wee gem Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 I'll get back to you on that, he only just got the car and I havn't seen it but will see it in a few days I'd say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Why don't you just bung the 5k in as is with some nice solex mikuni sidies off a 2t-g and those extractors that you got off the 3k (i assume they fit) and then save up and spend your money on a nice modern twincam like a 3s? I've heard the 5ks rev like buses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 5k period is where its at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Oh, is that the reasoning behind it. Ahwell thats fair enough then. I'm still not sold on the 5k idea though. How about building up an atlantic 2t-g replica. That would be super cool, would still rev well and be in period + insanely fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 I like the idea of staying K out of simplicity, and staying in the Jap style I'm after with the car. 5K's do rev like a bus engine, they're restricted in part by the advance curve on the standard dizzy's, recurve that shit and you're laughing. I'm going to use a 4K-U head, swap to solid lifters etc so I'll be happy if it sees a useable 7000rpm. In other news, the cars mostly a pile of parts on the garage floor, actually feels like a project now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Still not sold but 7k sounds pretty decent. So you'll use the dizzy off the 4k or will you be doing electronic ignition of some sort? Will be pretty awesome with that amount of work to the head, should sound the part aswell. I guess its just the fact that you go to all that effort and money spent and I wouldn't imagine it having more power than a stock 4age.
