Ford escort 1.8 GTI

[Elliott]

Anyone drove one of these?
I drove one the otherday and there flat as a dodo!
for a 1.8 GTi they are slow as sheep!

Thats all.

My old RS2000 was slow as well but pulled like a train while in gear

Easy solution would be to transplant an RS2000 top end with a galxy 2.3 bottom end. Instant 180bhp

i just bought a 3 door 1 the other day power band doesnt kick in till 4,000rpm
but i was told if you put the mondeo 2.0L cams and throttle body + ecu they can make 150bhp and you fit a power boost valve to get rid of the flat spot

plus mines immaculate low milage got it for 500 quid needed a feul pump gt a brand new tank and pump for free off a m8. so it aint tht bad

[Karl]

slower than a VTR..

well worthy of a GTi badge then.

[boabVTR]

well mine certainly isnt slower than a vtr. ive only got this for a cheap run around till i finish building my saxo.

i think they did them in 115 and 130 flavours,
either way...maybe a good runabout but theyre still a shit gti.

bit OT, love the avatar :y: ^^

[boabVTR]

they sure did ive got the 130. im sitting on a good earner here as long as i dont crash it i could sell it 4 at least 1500 ive seen other ones go 4 that and there no where near as clean as mine

[MiniGibbo]

There wank.

[St_James]

they're crap, totally gutless and rust like all escorts do, Had an R reg for a few weeks to sell for a friend and hated evey min of driving it, couldnt give it away, chucked it into the auctions in the end with no reserve lol.
