hi guys,
ive been a member on here for a while now, but lurk a lot more than i post so havent said much
thought it was about time i put my head above the water.
my name is obv Ross, i live in Lancashire and am 20years old
my daily driver:
Ford Focus Sport
map'd, coilover, st170 brakes + wheels, colour coded, clifford alarm ect
my weekend/track/autosolo toy
1.7 engine and gearbox, st150 clutch, st170 brakes, full strut braces, vibratechnics mounts, 4-2-1, stripped, plastic windows, and a load of other bits that i will have forgotten
since the pics ive now fitted a 6 point trs harness for me. and have bought an inlet plenum, FRP cams, and piper vernier pullies, and a decat back system. yet to fit though
and now for the car you guys are more likely to be interested in
Corsa C20LET. quite a few mods on this, too many to list. but it ran an F28 box, 200sx turbo elbox, fmic and hardpipe kit. now been stripped thoug

Hi mate welcome, Not a fan of the Focus but that looks pretty good, not too over the top. Love the Fiesta, bet it's a great little toy, they handle quite well so I'm told. Love the colour of the Corsa, is it off the road at the minute?

fiesta is cool,
never really see the point in the 1.7 conversion though, its the exact same engine as the ZS just bored out and nikasil lined
you'd see almost identical end results tuning the standard 1.6 and far less cost

wow, there is some funny comments in here LOL
the cage is available, its a 4 point
gidged500 - yea, i own Northern-Modified mate the previous owner of the corsa had a play with a lot of cars mate. i saw it take a 911 turbo so im guessing if a type R did have a play it wouldnt have got far lol
Steve- not sure where the idea about it being a bored out 1.6 comes from? the 1.7 shares some items like exhaust manifolds, but the 1.7 is vct, and has a different head. to get to 150bhp out of the 1.6 you need itb's. i can get that out of the 1.7 for less money but each to their own
i agree with Havoc - the colour was some 2pack poor excuse for a spray LOL

yes thats true it does have vct, its eseentially a bored out black top zetec s block though, with the slightly different head having the vct solenoid and unit on the inlet cam as you state.
still i think any advantage you will get is minimal
