was at FCS last year but not running, wasn't AWD when i saw it which was a shame

EDIT: just read the thread, totally different car! lol

Brilliant, Evos are the ultimate driving machine on the road, they just look a bit, well you know, put all that technology in a old shell, best of both for me. I wonder how much shorter it is, I know the Norris bogie was shortened and that performed well. I'm going to have a good read of this thread :)

Shame it's not an escort mk3 series 1 turbo :(

You can't ruin a series 1, however good the running gear is !

Crazy and amazing project :devil: That is some serious ambition to persue that project and make a pukka job of it, in the drive and overall finish of it. Good luck to him and i'll keep my eye on that! Thanks for posting that link up brigsy!

You make it sound so easy! Not as much work as you think though, I see what you mean. How does either of them drive, which ones yours? Difficult but entertaining i'd imagine?

there was a white pug 205 with evo 8 engine at ppc in the park last weekend, running 608 bhp fwd, gt3580r turbo and a heavy modded focus gearbox with gear ratios picked out of diesel/rs/st models:) using final drive as signal/pick up to limit boost in the 6 gears:cool:

went very well:smokin:
