Trig Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Hi all I'm from Bristol/Bath area I came across the forum after looking for a engine site looks great so thought I would join up. I'm into classic escorts really but do love a nice jap car too. I have just bought a mk1 escort estate project that I'm looking to build into a track/drift car and was thinking that a 350z motor would be a good hart for this project? I also do lots of shows at Castle Combe Circuit and for the last five years I've been hiring out the track for my birthday to share with friends. Wanted 350z engine in good working order. Pm me if you know of anything please. Quote

Lexx Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Welcome. There are a few members you can speak to for used motors. Zmanalex, Keyser, and R35LEE could all be able to help you out. Clark Motorsport, CS, and Tarmac Sportz (as well as other traders here) would be able to assist with clutches and the like. 1 Quote
