1.3 mk3 ford escort....remember modifying it from to an XR3 replica then fitting a series 1 RS turbo kit to it lol

Agree with you mate...which is why Vince will be building up my cabmastrs engine....he knows the VR6 engines intimately lol

Cheers mate, I’m based in mk so bit of a mission, I’ll give them a call, reckon I’ll end up diy rewiring though

FYI - cabmasters engine have been sat for a few years, I purchased one and would highly recommend stripping engine, inspecting, replacing any bits that look slightly off and replacing all seals and gaskets, would also recommend replacing chain guides and tensioners, they are still old....kind of a mini rebuild

Going with TT fronts as well with drilled/grooved discs, not going to bother with Brembos as I want to keep a similar brake pedal feel. Rears will be upgraded to TT as well with vented and drilled/grooved discs

Cheers, not going to be a resto, just want to keep it on the road for a good few more years....brakes are necessity, they have a tendency to smoke when I drive hard lol

The charger only provides a mild boost, the flap in the manifold is tiny, so doubt the low boost will do much to restrict it...almost not sure wether to just sell the schrick and stick and shorter intake on it. Biggest issue I have at the moment is the loom, I have a mate who does resto who will be taking a look tonight :)

Finally started work on the car again, plan to give a clean, de-rust where I can, weld where needed and paint where needed...will chuck some other bits in that I have been collecting as well such as samco hose set, vibratrchnics engine mounts, poly bushes, bigger brakes all round...generaly car is not in bad nick rust wise.

Started work on sorting my enigne bay and have noticed the loom is cripy in places, can anyone recommend a good place to get a loom made up? figured I dont want to risk and engine fire for the sake of cuttin gcorners on wiring

After a set of carbon wings

Cheers fellas...order a couple of tools

Hi All, Looking to repair sections of my engine loom, can anyone recommend a decent tool/kit to help remove electrical connectors? don’t fancy breaking stuff then trying to replace connectors

Hello, I think when you login you have to tick the box for "Remember me", failing that if you message me your email address I can send the pics across.

Cheer smate...yep that was back in 2017...how time flies!

Thanks for the positive comments, price wise I feel it’s a good price for someone to put the minor things right and have something to show for it. Hopefully will go to a good home.

Hello All, Reluctantlty putting the Storm up for sale…. mileage is arround 97,000miles, the car is MOT’d untill 9th June 2019 (car flew threw last few with no advisories). Work to date: - Just had a major service - oil filter ,fuel filter , air filter, plugs, leads etc - New top mounts plus bearings fitted all round - Roof lining retrimmed - Alloys remanufactured by Pristine in Woburn - Tyres are excellent - Re-trimmed OEM gear knob - New rad flange - New outer sunroof seal - New Aerial + base - Uniroyal Rainport 3 all round with approx 6mm tread The car is pretty much stock (still has the orginal tools, first aid, warning triangle and OEM mats) the only aftermarket items are: - Koni struts & H&R springs (not coilovers) - Alpine head unit + alpline OEM fit speakers - Toad CAT 1 Alarm (2 x alarm fobs + keys present) The car has stack of paperwork with it, along with the original leather bound wallet with all the manuals and service book.
