    Re: Fiesta mk3 2.0 zetec from Czech republic

    sorry for long delay... I had lot of work

    what happen with the car? One screw inside the gearbox loosen and totaly destroy all the gearbox except differential. So I found the right donor boxes and built "new" one. Its the same like last one: RS1800 gears, an old XR3i 4,27 final drive ratio and RST S2 diff. Now I put there the "old style" synchros for 3rd and 4th gear and maybe it shifts little faster.

    There is necessary to re-drill the holes in diff tooth-wheel, S2 LSD have 8holes, XR3i 6 only. The wheel is hardened!

    So I repair the car for last event of hill climb chapionship, 1st place was clear, and we were battle for 2nd, 3rd and 4th place... And I did this mistake...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWFiB-R1KQsYouTube - MČR ÚAMK do vrchu Stará Živohošť.

    the second race in this video I drove wery carefully, I cant pull down that accident... so we are 4th for this season.

    video from the last hillclimb event:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU-8SzKMYNQYouTube- Vrchařský epilog 2009 - Velká chuchle.


    and this weekend I visited track day at Sosnova circuit
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Uf9V6W-hlEYouTube- Autocar day Sosnová Ford Fiesta.

    (I film it by a new micro camera, bought a cheap one - aprox 70pounds, and it works...)

    The car is still for sale, looking for 4200pounds but nobody really interested there in czech republic... Dont like to sell it for less money.

    enterher: replied to your PM

    rear beam - I had problems with roll bar brackets, even I bought new ones from ford, they broke after few runs. So I strenghtened the beam and take out roll bar. It was lifting inner rear wheel in corners more, but no problem with that, car handles perfect.


    Fiesta is sold now, I only keep the engine and electronics. Now Im working on my mk2 escort zetec.

    This was perfect car and can only reccomend this!!!
