welcome :wave:

Welcome to the site! Thumbs up on the hood pins.

welcome

:wave:

i was actually suprised how quick my old mechanics car was, it looked exactly like this, only a lot more rust/a bunch of little bolt ons. it moved pretty good :tup:

thx for the welcome and not bashing on my car, it used to have a lx bumper on it now it has a gt bumper thats why the bumper is white and the hood is carbon fiber.

i plan on getting a j-spec mazda 323 gtx bp-t engine swap 180hp 170tq stock

the car isnt that bad for 130hp 114 tq stock

mods
timing set to 18*
Custom intake
Genie header 4-2-1
Pacesetter cat-back = the junk
Es engine mount inserts
Cross drilled/slotted rotors f/r
Tokico struts Sprint 1.8" drop
Es poly kit not installed yet
Front & Rear strut bars

Timing at 18 degrees? Wow, it handles that ok? I advanced my MR2 to 12 degrees with my friendā€™s timing light, but thatā€™s only 2 degress more than the 10 itā€™s supposed to be at. Didnā€™t want to mess with it too much. Anyways, cool car you got there.

idk maybe you did i was at lancaster a few times got some pics of the civic

i found the site after i seen the sticker on someones car thaught i would check it out

just have to run 93oct its a bp engine aka fwd miata so i can use a bunch of miata bolt-onā€™s and internals from the 1.8l pistons,rods,cams,valves things like that

na man iv talked to u when i hang out at Stacyā€™s house on Abbott i think

ok now i know who you are

Welome

Welcome, seems like you know a lot about your car :tup:

Xā€¦

hi there

mine is 17 stockā€¦people have been running 30ā€¦all depends on the car

BTW u gonna do AWD with that motor swapā€¦

word, my impala was running 18deg retarded base timing. and i did not know they made carbon fibre hoods for that gen escort, you do learn something new every day

howdy.

please donā€™t put big wing on, seems like you go your head on straight :slight_smile:

cant really make the car awd the only way i could do that is if i found a awd protege and swaped a bpt into that

im running 18deg advanced timing

no parkbench for me ugly things

Not everyday you see an Escort GT with little rust on it. And where in the heck did you find a CF hood for that. Should be nice once itā€™s done. :tup:
