RT Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Cheers dude, I've done a 14sec on a Gtech, but that was with loads of wheel spin and a huge miss at 3500rpm. Now that all this is sorted I am expecting mid 13's at least. I'm not taking it too the track until I have my w57 gearbox in there. After that.. its on!

Leebo3 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Was it hard to convert from the square to circle lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 nope.. easy as, just bolt them in and a bit of wiring, and mounting some mk1 escort indicators in the grill. This is exactly what the American models look like. I guess the hardest part was finding some decent mk1 escort indicators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leebo3 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 What was wrong with your old one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 it's not straight.. it's got too many vents..in the wrong places.. and it's been blistered so much from the turbo it looks like a Chernobyl victim.. I have another bonnet which is better but it's got a few dents and bog.. and its got underseal all underneath. This is a brand new bonnet which has never been on a car.. hasn't even been painted. Way too good an opportunity to pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfadog Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Love the exterior of the car man. Just perfect. The twin round headlights do SO MUCH for the car... amazing. I'm a little disappointed with the interior though to be honest. Sorry, just don't like it at all. Regardless, HOT car and the wheels are just perfect. Perfect!

peteretep Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 I agree with alfadog on the interior, I think maybe it just looks too newschool or something, just doesnt fit. All leather interior would be king I think without the red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 yeah I've had a few people say that.. others love it. well, I had an all black interior once and it was.. well boring to be honest. Interiors are one of those personal things, like white out interiors.. seems to be all the rage but I think it looks posey and gay. Straight black interiors are timeless and classic but are very mundane. I didn't really plan out the red.. it just sorta happened. haha. I do plan on getting black leather seats at some stage, perhaps that would tone it down a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
