Ford rs2000 with a wrong color but could be a top car

[pagani]

Change the color sell the ice setup and you have decent car.
Underneat all that pink work is a decent rallycar not you ususal yunk 1,0 litre engine.

[ZondaC12]

[pagani]

But ít's has mountune f2 engine under the bonnet.
I a hate a pink car as much as you people how cool would be if you did enter a pink rallycar and beat them al
:D :o

Hey, that's the car that MAXPOWER modded afew years back when I used to buy it. Amazing its still around and in 1 piece!!!

If you can find a place that can respray it for not too much $$$ why not :D

[TopGearNL]

Yep Respray it, nothing more wrong with it!!

Just pulling your leg :wink:

[pagani]

What i would change is the suspension setup for something more advanced.
Get a standalone ecu from motec or pectel only their top of range ecu's.
Sell the ice setup get some compomotive rally wheels 17 or 18 inch big. Get ap racing big brake kit 380 mm front dics's with six pod calipers and fast road brake pads and in the rear ap racing 330 mm whit four pot calipers and fast road brakepads.
Maby xtrac orr ffd gearbox with straight cut gears.
And rebuild engine to engine a higher level.

Can somebody explain to me why I shouldn't take a real Escort Cosworth over this ugly RS2000?

[pagani]

Because it's has rally spec montune engine and 14 point rollcage and fia spec seats.
:D :o

1. What's the output of that engine? Is it a full blown eninge or the RS2000 block with some add-ons?
2. If it's a fully modified engine, how can it work with a pretty much stock RS2000 transmission?
3. Why does it have a ghastly bodykit instead of a functional kit, if this would be a serious rally spec car?
4. The car has "ice", pretty pointless.

LOL@investing £76,000.00 in this car...and advertising this as a Group B rally car. No doubt it is pretty fast for a little hatchback, but it doesn't seem close to a real Cosworth.

[dutchmasterflex]

Way to ruin a perfectly nice car.. :puke:

[pagani]

This car is never been a ford cosworth just a ford rs(rallysport)
All of the real ford cosworth roadcars where ford cosworth and the rs2000 is badged rs not cosworth.

And the stock escort rs 2000 is good for 150 hp and i believe they had fwd and 4x4 versions of the car but it's was never fitted from the factory with the famous yb cosworth the one that you talk about.

The owner made a mistake thay say it's group b rally car but it's closer to f2 class ford ford rs2000 maxi evo 2 rallycar
Here is example of such a car

The car in the last link looks a lot more serious that that pink heap of crap.

[pagani]

Yes but because thats the real deal and pink escort rs2000 is just a road car whit a rally spec engine but i don't kown how much diffent the engine in the pink one is compared to then works rallyspec rs 2000.
And the rest of the pink escort is now where the level of the rally rs2000.
The fia f2 class was class for cars whit 2000 cc and no turbos and front wheel drive and the rs2000 i posted is made to rally in this class but think the f2 class was scraped by the fia.
:D :o
