Hello guys,

Newb from Laois here, not a drifter but I am putting a sr20det into a mk1 escort. So I will be needing info on this engine as I go along and thought here might be good place to start.

Cheers,
Brian

grafted in a tunnel from the s14 donor car, it will be more nissan that ford because I am also using nissan seats, centre console, handbrake, and brake calipers!

Cheers for the welcomes.

To be honest no real plans for it, road use mainly. This car just kind of evolved. I started out with intentions of a mild resto with a pinto engine. And before I know it I bought a crashed s14a and was 6 linking the rear of the escort! :huh:

Best things are unplanned I guess :cool:
