A French Man un XR2i

Postby SamC on Mon Feb 02, 2015 2:03 pm

Hi everybody
I'm Samuel, French and happy processor of a XR2i 1991 Mercury Grey :Q
I work in Clermont Ferrand in a big tires manufacturer :D

I'm here because in France it is difficult to find information about the conversion of a 2i in RS Turbo, so I'm looking for information :Q

An other picture of my 2i

- Supersport Suspension -60mm with wedges to rise to -40
- Front and rear strut bar
- Powerflex front and rear
- OMP Mille Miglia wheels en 6.5"x15" in ET 18.5 (that will be repainted in anthracite grey)
- Front and rear RS2000 brakes

It lacks more than adequate engine :D

Looks like graphite grey, I'm sure they didn't come in mercury grey. I know the XR3i was graphite grey

Welcome! I remember driving by the tyre manufacturer in Clermont Ferrand when I was driving along the A75.

Have you found a Turbo engine yet?
