So happy I found this video. I've seen a few videos featuring your car, first one I saw was when Raymond sent me the link about the bodykit and I knew it was a 2.0 from the sound but thought you'd done a rear drive conversion with a cosworth. Car is awesome I like it its very inspirational. If you would be so kind as to send me as much info on your build as possible to pnsgroup1255@googlemail.com I'd greatly appreciate it. Many thanks and keep up the goodwork

ford escort a 1 3 pic cam long time a go lol

oh myy GOSH!! Bro!! You HAVE to let me knoe where you got all those parts!!!!! i've been looking to do the same thing to my Zx2!

Hello ! Nice !! See my porting of Cosworth/Zectec syl head. + other car`s JVB.

@tez162003 hey, i wonder why you would prefer the mtx175 instead of of an standard, both are not suited for turbo...only difference is the syncro added to the reverse gear, beside you also need to change the drive shafts due to the difference in length...take an ib5 housing and add the diff from an rs turbo but still it wouldn't live long......buy quaife if you don't want any problems with the gearbox....if you wanna play hard, you gotta pay hard....

@Rsspecial1 LOL you alright alex!!

@dannyboi3001 Hello danny. I'm also in SWF - i do beleive the car your talking about is the escort cosworth [the only orange one i know of in Rayleigh.] I could be wrong though. My RST is on here, search for "rsspecial1" It's not an orange escort but still -

You live in Rayleigh by any chance mate? if so I LOVE your car!! Make an effort to drive past it whenever I'm in Rayleigh, in SWF myself so not particularly far.. if you ever fancy taking a complete stranger out for a drive I'm that stranger =P

@cheese3656 the chavtastic days of flamer kits lol. Didnt need it a while after this video, as i fitted jenvey throttle bodies and megasquirt stand alone management, that pops flames on its own lol

@ashleyuk2007 1.8 gearbox is fine, only need the MTX75 box if you turbo it or go into 200bhp area

@nockr21 1.6 IB5 Gearbox, no need to uprated them really, if you do go turbo you could do with going to the MTX75 box off the RS2000's. Front brakes, i used a 300mm set up, focus st170 disks, mark 3 mondeo calipers (same as st170 calipers) and goodridge braided hoses. On the rear i used an RS2000 rear disk beam, 2wd rs2000 handbrake cable and Goodridge braided hoses. Although i did later uprate the fronts to 330mm Focus RS 4 Pot Brembo's just before braking the car :( hope that helps

What gearbox did you use for this engine as i bought my escort with the engine conversion already done and apparently its got a 1.8 gti gearbox in.

wat was that switch for?

yep its a rst charge pipe, i have just done a jenvey throttle body conversion so i no longer need any of the intake stuff from this vid, so i will have the hoses, chrome pipe, 2.0 throttle body, 2.0 MAF air filter etc for sale, theres a for sale thread for them on escort evolution ;)

the plugs are the same but you do need to alter 7 or 8 wires, theres a easy to follow guide on escort evolution if you need one

Zetec from a focus will involve custom rear engine mount, if you want a 2.0 zetec thats easy to do, get a silvertop. if you have a zetec in the car already its an easy swap as all the loom is the same, all you change is the, sump, pick up, ecu, tb, maf, block, head, fuel rail, and couple of 2.0 sensors, can be done in a weekend. This engine has just been ripped apart and being built again to be even cleaner! :)

Hi there, i`m also interested in ur project. I have escort 1.6 and planning to swap the eingine with 2.0 zetec SE from focus.

thanks, i like it, id love to re spray it again in a different shade of orange and do a few tweaks, but well see, currently jobless due to redundancy so wont be happening soon, thats for sure

engine looks lovely and ya car

that why you modify the airbox so you get the benefit of both sound and performance!

not a fan of panels filters personally, i like the bit of induction noise, its not running quite right in this vid as the MAF has had it!

Get a panel filter in there and it will go lovely!
