PumKa

This will look sick.

Was a FRP engine, Removed from a salvage FRP, Inlet wouldnt fit under the bonnet, bonnet was already cut out to fit the standard puma manifold. So yes it is a FRP engine.

Hey, Yerh on the Ka, couldnt really go for anymore stretch, wernt really that drivable with them tyres and that much power in the first place! Picking up the Porsche wheels up Friday now, waiting for the adapters to come through the post aswell. Also what would be the best coilovers? On the old Fords we used Ap's, they went down 75mm, Hmm, i know the conversion wouldnt be 'easy' but it shouldt be too hard if the Fox is based on a 9n Polo, is it a case of changing the engine loom, ecu, engine and box? Just thinking something a whole lot easier to do than the Ka, that was all custom mounts, engine was shifted over to the left as much as posible to fit the Puma box in, still wouldnt fit so a hybrid box was made, Loom was made from scratch, was running 2 ECUs at first, slam panel was cut out to fit the manifold in and the bonnet was also cut out to clear the manifold. So im just looking for a easier option Will get more pics up when the wheels go on, bumpers and boot are smoothed! Cheers for the interest! Harry,

Hey, Joined up along time ago, when i was originally looking for a Fox, but never got one in the end. Well recently i sold my Ka and got this Fox! Heres a little detail on the Ka, looking to go the same route with the Fox. Had a 6 Page feature in Performance Ford, another in Fast Ford mag. It in Performance Ford this month aswell, it was a very very well known car, but i had it for 3 years this month, so time to go! A new project to start, went for a Fox as noones really done one, same with the Ka, thats why it got noticed! Heres a few pics just for record 1.7 16v Puma Racing Conversion, 155bhp, 0-60 - 7.3 It had fully flocked dash, engine cover. Escort Cosworth Brakes, Focus Rs rear discs, full cossie leather. So, now time for the Fox's turn! Bought it Cat C, got damage to the bonnet, wing and bumper, so all bolt on bits, bought it because it was a decent colour compared to the range! Also it was a 1.4, and and Urban, so got all the goodies, got a new front bumper going on just waiting for it to be finished smoothing, What ive got alreay, Fk Adapters, 17" Porsche twists German import spoiler Done all the badges black, de striped etc.. while i wait for the boot to go in for smoothing, Golf Gti Mk5 Steering wheel, (no pics yet) Took the stereo out of the Ka (hit 142.3db) thats going in the Fox, Thats about it for the minute, Just waiting for the adapters to come through the post and the wheels can go on! Waiting for coilovers aswell, Heres some pics, some of the first day when i picked it up and the day after, I just cant beleive how high it is! Need some slammage Wheels i bought, Looking at Porsche brakes, anyone got any idea how to make that work? Im all new to this VAG stuff But being 5x100 TT225 Brakes shouldnt be too hard to fit? Also, same as a Mk7 Polo engine i believe? So the 1.8T out of one of them shouldnt be too hard of a conversion? Vw's all seem to go by engine codes, wereas in a Ford you could make practically anything fit haha, Lemme know what you all think, and look foward to getting to know you all! Cheers, Harry,

Hey, Dunno were to start Well, ive got my Ka. Its a 1.7 VVTI Puma Racing conversion (1 of 2 ever converted) running the engine stock atm 155bhp. 0-60 in 7 secs-ish. Slammed 75mm on coilovers running 195/45 over a 8j rim, full flocked dash etc.. Its a well known car in the Ford scene, its been in various mags (Performance Ford, Fast Ford etc...) Ive had this for nearly 2 years now (i bought it when i was 16) and now its all finished! So time to move onto a new project! Heres a couple of pics of it: Anyway, ive found a Fox (i know alot of you are not to keen on them ) But fancied something different to a Lupo and havnt seen a Fox done yet! I just fancy a change, i test drove a 1.2 8v the other day at a dealer just to see what they drove like. The one im found is a 1.4 but obv still seems **** low compared to my car So looking at a engine conversion, am i right in thinking the Lupo engine is the same as a Fox engine? So the Polo Gti enine would be a easy conversion? Or am i totally wrong Engine conversions arnt a trouble for me but just thinking of a easy route for the time being. the Ka had a new loom from scratch made up! So i know what a conversion involves and am a bit experienced in them, well on fords haha. Anyway the plans for a Fox are: Engine conversion of somesort Lowest setting on coilovers (100mm or more) Smoothing Mk5 Gti front and rear brakes. 996 Porsche interior Proberly something like teledials or 994 wheels, Flocked dash And things like that haha, am i on the right track? Anyway, just wondered to hear what you all think and loving some of the Lupos on here! Cheers, Harry P.s the Fox is a 1.4, 59 plate with 4k on the clock in black. It needs a new wing (cat D) but its just under 2.5k so nice and cheap for a new car and ill have money left over after i break/sell the Ka.
