although technically not a car spotted but went past an accident repair centre tonight local to me and it had these two, plus a capri and another classic ford! Brilliant to see.
No, I’ve got the bits again, but I think it may be my laptop. I might give it a go if I can borrow a laptop from someone. Really want it done but I’m not paying £175 for it!
How is this for a conversion?

Yeah I had the petrol blue 182 at the time! Crazy how long ago that was.
sad to hear the cup went that way, but the 182 looks nice.
the 220 though, beautiful!!
I wish I had RS monitor to try this! On a separate note @Don did you (have you) got the 172 cup? Didn’t you used to be the rep for the midlands or something? I remember you coming to Stafford for a meet years ago I’m sure!
Wowsers!! I can get 40 on the motorway but my daily drive is only short when I use her at the minute and my mpg is reading 27! And I drive like a granny EVERYWHERE!
Yeah it’s a shame there aren’t more on here, they do seem to be popular, but not with the enthusiasts who would frequent this site sadly.
I absolutely love mine, wish I’d had one sooner (apart from the rubbish mpg!!)
There are places that fit second hand engines, and some will collect car and return it. I’d be looking at those kind of places. Failing that a mobile mechanic with the correct equipment will probably do the job if you source the engine.
Yeah to quote my wife ‘it’s full of rubble’. Which is strange to see that wheee you are is the same. There is a lot of Middle East influence in Malta and also Italy and other countries that have invaded over the years. Just expected over there to be all posh and clean. I guess most places have a...
40p a litre!! Amazing and crazy that it’s expensive to you/them. I remember being in the states when it was $1.87 a gallon and they were complaining! We were paying £5 a gallon!
I’d be interested too. Looks like some awesome cars, as you’d expect from there! Is fuel cheap there? One thing I can’t get over is how much it looks like Malta! I thought it was for a few pictures. Made me chuckle.
I might look at one of those, someone on the bookface page does a 220 trumpet and silicone hose for about £125 odd but didn’t know if it would make a difference. Glad to know it does.
have you changed your hot side silicone pipe too?
@karlos0891 Yeah I don’t think it will do much, but there is definitely a smoother flow for the air and it’s a wider diameter so maybe some improvement of some kind somewhere.
yeah the lights are awesome and such an improvement. I was looking at the larger intake thing, how is it?
Fitted some facelift rear lights today, pretty straight forward apart from a little bit of wiring needed. Look much better than pre facelift I think.
Also fitted an airtec cold side pipe. What an absolute nightmare it was! I’ve not sworn so much at this car as I have today doing this...
That is awesome!! What kind of cost is involved with something like that if you don’t mind me asking?
Too late just saw. That is an extreme amount of money, but looks like it takes driving games to another level!!
Nope, no ball. It must be my laptop not working correctly but I don’t know why. I’ll try and borrow a laptop and try again, I really want RS monitor but don’t have the money to throw on stagex.
I’m hoping someone close to me can do it for some beer tokens instead if I fail again.
that was a...
