Xr4i 24v - Drifting forum

Corey_XR4I · 25-02-2008, 23:46

Well hello Guys and Gals and Retrodan

I aint made a thread about my car here yet and jammie has just persuaded me to make one

I got this car about 6months ago and done nothing but fiddle with it, litterally i mean if i didnt have anything to do on it i go round the garage drive it out and reverse it back in numerous times a day, but atleast now im fairly good at reversing for when i turn 17 and on my test

anyway enough jibba jabba here she is:

Spec:

Ford seirra xr4i
24v cosworth engine conversion done by Baz @ xr4ispares
Fully adjustable konis
Decat
air filter, oil filters etc
Cosworth rear lsd

i know
No rear brakes

fully stripped

Things to do:

Get a welded sorted
Rear brake calipers
PAS cooler fitted
Twin electric fans fitted
cage (hopefully)
2 nice buckets as im currently using 3door cosworth interior which is worth a canny bit money
Get to as much dorift events possible this year

AFTER THE DIET:

also here is me at Teeside on NYE

YouTube - corey at drift practice in his xr4i

Comments and advice very much welcome lads , apart from the ones who say scrap it!!!!!

Corey_XR4I · 25-02-2008, 23:57

Yea shes a good old girl, got to be Ford

MARKPRIOR · 26-02-2008, 10:39

looking good any engine plans for it then? who's is the scooby that always parks there now ?

Corey_XR4I · 26-02-2008, 10:54

Hi mark m8 the scooby was my dads but he sold it about a month ago, a lad called Fudge is hammering it round thorney now if you see it, it aint us lol

Engine plans, atm i have to take prority on brakes and things that make it run before i go for more power, but next power mod will be BOB cams then maybe a chager if my dads m8 sells me his

MARKPRIOR · 26-02-2008, 11:15

should go well with a charger, i seen the scooby its always round my way

Corey_XR4I · 26-02-2008, 11:17

Yea, the lads an idiot who has got it, but he flashed the cash so we took it

and yea id be hoping for some good power with cams and charger 300ish?

Jimthejunior · 26-02-2008, 12:41

Why you talking about more power already. Surely the main thing should be getting it running then learning how to drift it good. What power you reckon its running now?

agreed that power is silly for a first car imo and should drift easily

Corey_XR4I · 26-02-2008, 15:40

I aint going for more power at all, im saying them are future plans in say a year or so once ive got better,

id say running 200+bhp but the guy my dad bought it off told us 245bhp but had no proof or figures or upgrades so i just say its in standard form with decat and air filters

paulfluke · 26-02-2008, 16:54

Nice motor dude ! I used ta have one in an old granada , plenty of poke , shame mine was auto. Had an lsd and she still skidded fairly well, hard ta keep it skiddin tho.

You runnin a modified MT gear box then?

Corey_XR4I · 26-02-2008, 17:53

Yea paul its running a mt75 box with escozz clutch and xr4x4 bell i believe

plenty of poke for sure and same with lsd i couldnt keep a skid going for long

Jeek™ · 26-02-2008, 19:15

nice one! more 24v is good!

Corey_XR4I · 26-02-2008, 19:25

Cheers jeek m8, hopefully more and more will start to use the 24v

monkeysan · 26-02-2008, 19:54

nice work corey - still dont know whats going on with our tramp

we were going to get a 24v, but TBH i think were just going to fix the DOHC and kick 7 shades out of that instead!

iirc the mt75 box wont take that much power as i seem to remember it wont take much more than the standard 24v so i would recomend having a look before blowing a box! lol!

Corey_XR4I · 26-02-2008, 23:36

Monkeysan- cheers bud, just 24v £200 will get you an engine

Brennon - nah m8 i think your on about the standard xr4i boxes they are like scoobys, made of chocolate the mt75 is sometimes used on some rally cars and are getting quite rare now

Comeragh YB e36 · 27-02-2008, 13:59

Corey_XR4I · 28-02-2008, 02:31
