Nice car but get some pics up of your seats

How easy were they to fit?

[HCS PIMP]

just some random pics to update ill show some more once running

[jayrs]

whats the body like on that mk2?

[HCS PIMP]

gr8 thats the one i told u about u spanner

and heres a vid of the car running !!!! yes i know with GURU 1.6 16V ECU lol

it runs

[HCS PIMP]

got the dewy ecu today i love the smoothness and power now wait till ive fettled it and got a few more ponies me likes

[Tweek]

I think it's pretty obvious from that video that the engine isn't really "running" is it cos it sounds like a bag of s**t

[HCS PIMP]

that was using the 1.6 ecu lol it was written on the page got a dewy ecu now but still need to clean the iscv, clean and redo the throtle, fit my homemade decat and then fit a 2.0 maf then go for another spin it's 90% better now filled with redex been for a 45 min drive its fantastic

[HCS PIMP]

fiesta runs almost perfect now picking up new zorst sat so ill post loads of pics and a vid sunday

[HCS PIMP]

hi everyone finally time for u all to see my 2.0 fiesta on the dyno

the car cost me £750 pound

ive spent about £300 pound on parts to get the car perfect

filters, oil, coolant, wishbones, gearbox mounts, belts, switches, fitting indicators, wheel clyinders, wax oil, exhuats bits i.e all the niggles


engine cost 125 with auto box and all ansillaries which sold at work and made 60 so engine cost 65 pound and the driving to babingtons in leeds to collect the engine

ecu was 50 for a dewy ecu from scrappy in wigan

maf and throttle body were free from work

oil and filter before the swap were £15 pound

the exhasut system was a swap with a guy from nottingham you know who u are

the h&rs coilovers are from rhys which cost £165

cossy brakes were £275 all in one new caliper, on scrap one, omp discs and pads and refurb kit and paint

wheels and tyres wheel were £75 plus £30 to refurb them myslef/ tyres yokohama prad spec 2's were £145

so all in all has been failry cheap the k&n, speakers and other bits along the way didnt cost much but still make a diff to me

anywho here the pics and videos







thanks everyone for all the help

[HCS PIMP]

car has 122 bhp when i did it and 125 when the dyno man had a shot so either way a respectable figure with an si box and cat

[jayrs]

not bad power but why is there not a big fan at the front of the car?

[HCS PIMP]

guy said it wasnt needed ??? so i went with what he said gonna give him a lesson when i return its a 4wheel dyno and was free if anyone wants to come next time give me a ring or pm,

[jayrs]

next time gime him a back hander and tell him to put the fan there

[xr2irhys]

pics of car on coilys?

[jimmyesh]

Crikey, a dyno run with no fan- seen it all now!

Should hopefully be nearer 130-140bhp soon, it's what they made in the repmobile's Mondy after all...

Got those coilovers for a good price

[HCS PIMP]

yeh i did get em for a good price took 3 weeks to get em though lol

well i know the box and the manfold / cat are killing it and i think ill do the plug gaps before ther next run lol

im aiming for 150 for the time being or 145 ish so an st fiesta cant run away

then when im at uni after a year or 2 im gonna treta myself to throttle bodies and then get an oil cooler and then wait for a while till i decide wether to turbo it or just enjoy the power im v happy with what it makes now as doesnt drink and the powerflow is quiet

[xr2irhys]

pics of car on coilys?

[HCS PIMP]

i will post some pics of the car on coilovers but first ill need to spend 4 hours cleaning it and i currently have 6 stitches in my wrist from a stanley knife so im not gonna risk gettign the bandages wet lol

but rest assured pics and vid to follow if next week

[TIL13R]

Crikey, a dyno run with no fan- seen it all now!

Thats what i thought.....????

[HCS PIMP]

4 hours of cleaning later

[xr2irhys]

some ones sitting lowwwwwww

[HCS PIMP]

yeh but it still handles gr8 so im happy and even with an engine and 8 alloys in the boot with my 25+kg tool box back still didnt rub as the coilies have given a lgith adverse camber no adjustable tops needed lol and gonna remove the cat tomorow and fix the fan belt as the tension still isnt right lol but by tomorow evnign should have the 130bhp i want and just wating on an ebayer to refund me for the wrong ecu they sent then i can drive to brummy land for my rs1800 box gonna strip and clean the box paint it gunmetal grey and redo the seals then refit with synthetic oil and a new inner cv boot and some cv grease and my car will then do 130mph on the dyno i worked out the car does 4 miles to a litre if not more so not bad really as that was on twisty roads with a heavy foot

ive also refitted the sub as it was in the garage and wont make that much difference with a 2.0's torque

[CrAzY kAyLL]

looks spot on mate - bet it wont be that clean by the end of the week though bloody winter weather

[HCS PIMP]

depends if i get a job if i dont only use it to get to college so wont get toooo dirty gonna wax it tomorow with some meg tech wax so should look even more like a ribena berry lol

[lachojski2005]

that exhaust looks a bit sexy now its clean.lol.sits in the gap perfect.

[HCS PIMP]

yep and thanks again for the swap sounds perfect will be even nicer when i remove the cat

[HCS PIMP]

home made decat fitted, replaced the bottom tensioner on the fan belt and seems to have freed up revs alot before u woudl build speed and as u change gear the engine would slow down now it keeps going
just need the rs1800 box and a fully synthetic service then find where the coolant leak is ???

[Jonezy]

try blowing air into the radiator cap with an air line and see if you can get the leak to spray water, then it will be easier to find, if not just drain it then blow air through and you will definatly hear where it is coming from.

tidy car now mate,
what saxo did you have, i had one for a year, great to drive fast, uncomfortable, noisy etc.

[HCS PIMP]

i had a mk2 vtr spent 2.5 k on it and had a few custom touches like my 4-1, stainless decat , piper system, custom air box, custom intall ect lol was sexy lil mofo but couldnt handle s**t at speed was scary and when doing 110mph was overheating, but my fez never had that issue and was always ace handeling wise

hence my now 2.0 si lol i would go back as the saxo may have been newer and sexier but chavy and not safe at speed, so a lil compromise with an older car thats now sexy im happy lol

[Jonezy]

id be slightly worrdied about a saxo that doesnt handle at speed, lol.

contemplating a toy when i turn 21 but not sure what to get, see what is about at the time.

i built a vts engine for my vtr, 4-2-1, p+p cylinder head, and other stuff, just couldnt get it to start due to electrics and stuff.

[HCS PIMP]

yeh the vts engine is a work of art lol but mine was crap at speed granted was standard supension but i had toyos and good brakes but when cornering at 60 it would slide and skid and really got to me as i wanted a safe mean fast car so it had to be gone

[HCS PIMP]

some more pic one of my cleaned maf and the fez after 4 hour cleaning and a wax lol

just looking for the future of my fez

[HCS PIMP]

i think im loosing the love for my fez as im not sure whether to keep it when i go back to uni

if so may be up for sale

[jimmyesh]
