Escort_Owner16v Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Hey! not posted on here for a good while, but i'm gonna be on the look out for a 2ltr escort at the start of next year and was looking at the Rs2000 or similar. What're the main differences between that and a 2ltr zetec. also, what does an Rs2k 4x4 handle like? Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs_daz Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 The std rs 2000 is 150ps you also have the choice of the mk5 or mk6.They are well good cars engine is basicly bomb proof. Ive owned 4 rs2k and never had any worries on engine related issues.. Handling on the 4x4 is pretty good altho if that 4x4 trans box fucks up there hard to find. Also the 2wd would be faster.

gavmk6 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 As said defo either a mk5 rs2000 or a mk6 2wd rs2000 over a 2ltr zetec IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskiddanny Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I'd go for the rs2k 4x4 if i could find one and insure one lol. It will run rings around the 2wd in every way apart from in a straight line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk6 Si Ross Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I'd go for the rs2k 4x4 if i could find one and insure one lol. It will run rings around the 2wd in every way apart from in a straight line. i bet if you got some coilovers on a 2WD and got em set up properly at somewhere like Northampton Motorsport then it'd be an interesting race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
