this channel should have 300k not 3k your knowledge of motors is spot on mate 👌

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Thankyou man! Maybe one day you never know 💪🏻

[@johnhook2372]

Lol bucket seat

[@yowhatsmyname6393]

Loving the vids, straight to the point no bullshit. Keep looking for similar vids for MK1 focus RS but there's fuck all!!

[@medievilassassin]

I would have wire brushed the steering knuckles and painted them black

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

We have another set being powder coated 😎

[@medievilassassin]

Aaron Unknown splendid 😎

[@CRAZYRUSTYVW]

I was thinking that aswell haha

[@Phil-1969]

I may be talking complete bollocks but my mate had a early RS escort like this back in the 80s did any of them have some sort of belt on the prop shaft that did the ABS or something like that I’m sure I saw something like that a ribbed belt coming off the drive shafts ?

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Nope your absolutely right mate! The S2 abs had belts on the driveshafts was a dreadfull design 🤣

[@Phil-1969]

Aaron Unknown cheers they are great cars , yours look great, my mate had 2 white ones D reg and F reg I think

[@shaneirle]

Aaron where abouts your from if your near I'll come and machine polish your cosworth and Astra for free. I'm a detailer

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Thats a very kind offer dude. Drop me a message on my instagram officialaaronaaron

[@shaneirle]

[@jordanbidmead6918]

This must have cost you a fortune! Love these videos keep it up

[@CRAZYRUSTYVW]

It's worth it why do half a job when you might aswell do a full build =)

[@themechanic7561]

You can’t beat the burble of the rs with a scorpion. Fantastic car mate you should be proud

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

One of the best sounds mate! 💪🏻

[@adamsmith8367]

Loving the scorpion exhaust the sound took back great memories of my series 2 with one fitted 😍

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Yeah very nostalgic! Ive run most systems on my Rs’s and scorpion is awesome

[@_Hangman]

"Bucket seat" brilliant, getting your money's worth from that iron out too. Agree that a track car can still look good even if it is a track car, just not to a show car level of course.

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

That iron out is working hard! From all the fab work. Yeah i hate untidy and tatty track cars its just lazy imo

[@markblacklock588]

Aaron cheers for sharing your knowledge and tips on these cars it will help me massively 👍

[@broken12367]

I believe mine was the first ever Mongoose exhaust fitted to an RS Turbo in the UK in 1996, that’s what the supplier told me anyway

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Thats pretty kool man! The legend was born

[@broken12367]

Aaron Unknown Yeah I loved it, didn’t turned the stereo on days just loved listening to the deep burble from the exhaust.

[@e36racer44]

They told me the same. Can’t believe you believed it 😂😂😂

[@CRAZYRUSTYVW]

Aaron where in the UK are you? I'm into building old. Classic cars and I notice you like vauxhalls I work for them haha 😂

[@MrStreetboy80]

This is in proper good nick! That white is going to come up mint when you Clay bar and wax it. Glad you changing the spoiler to 90 spec. Their a lot more interesting to look at. I had a 90 spec a few years ago, it was tuned by power+ back in the day, for whoever remembers them. I stripped out all the abs out. The abs was shocking on the models that had it. Welded up all the rust and painted all underneath and arch’s. I spent many months fixing all its flaws. Just fitted a new clutch and some barstards nicked it! Being sorn because I was working on it ment no pay out. It was recovered but was ragged so bad I just couldn’t deal with starting a rebuild again. I ended up selling it to recover costs from it being recovered and stored at a compound. I did enjoy the car for a little while before taking it off road for a rebuild. It was one hell of a fun car to drive!

[@phil6812]

Another great video 👍. Subscribed a few months ago and really enjoy watching your older content as well as the newer stuff. I'm looking for someone to install wossner pistons and pec rods to my z16 in the new year if you're interested in making a video 😉

[@sugar4522]

My new fav KZbinr wicked as always

[@PKDiag]

All about the Scorpion outwardly rolled noise!

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Its awesome to see the vids reaching the otherside of the world! Thanks alot, next year the will be lots of action vids

[@simonmcfeely5860]

Nice video - keep on showing the small how to’s and all. The wheel bearing was a good one. Maybe something like how to gap the plugs etc. keep it up. Nice one

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Thanks man! ill try to include more detail!

[@bluntyr5gtt]

just watched all your vids on this, brilliant work and attention to detail, certainly making a fantastic job of it. Looking forward to the next one

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

[@michaelmatthews8171]

Great vid as usal, Those outwardly rolled tail pipes remind me of the old janspeed tail pipes back in the day. Looking forward to the next video..

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Yep the classic ford tailpipe! Should of came from factory 🤣

[@danmark2040]

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

I agree! I had my first rs turbo when i turned 18 its nostalgic

[@gdfggggg]

The sound of the turbs is pucker. Lovely warble from the rear.

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

I agree! That cvh noise 😎

[@kevinD.S]

I want the same back bumper from youre vxr the underlip spoiler it looks clean where can i get the parts. And nice videos btw. amazing job on all of those cars

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Its the original prodrive rear bumper mate. I painted the centre black

[@kevinD.S]

It looks nice i hope i can find one

[@MattHale121]

Great, thanks for sharing 👍

[@cba360]

Never been a big fan of modern day fast fords, but the old true fast fords are just brilliant and the work gone into this is outstanding.

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Modern fords are all boring! Mk1 focus Rs was the last of them. Thanks man

[@cba360]

Aaron Unknown yeah I can agree with that completely, the new cars are nice but nothing like the old days. Mind I was never a fan of the interior of the mk1 rs as it reminded me of the crap aisle at Halfords but nowadays it’s grown on me. Trying to get my mate to sell me his before it rusts away or appreciates to silly money 😂

[@danglee1786]

Iv got a cossy managed rst just wondering who mapped it for u

[@thewippit2400]

Dan baler - my mate had his 2.0l zetec turbo t3 fiesta Rs turbo mapped up at a.t speed racing in Essex also he upgraded from coast management to full omex management on it cars a monster to be fair they did awesome job on it

[@ivorbiggun4919]

The side skirts are not just double sided tape’d on you should have a plastic trim pop riveted to the sill that the side skirt clips on to That stops it from sagging

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Yeah they disappeared a long time ago when it was last resprayed unfortunately. The sills have now been bonded on

[@sr71blackbirddr]

Looks like you're doing better work in your back yard than these "technicians" at main dealers.

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Funny you say that a few of the people i do builds for a main dealer techs 🤣

[@sr71blackbirddr]

@@AaronUnknownPerformance If they cant plug it in and get an exact diagnosis there shafted 😂

[@bigcountrykris4444]

One of the beat youtuber's about mate, give loads of info & always explain things in a straight forward way, the rs turbo looks awesome, cant wait to see it all finished & on the track 👌👍

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Thanks dude really appreciate that! I feel its better to explain whats going on as not everyone is mechanically minded! Not long now it will be out on track

[@bigcountrykris4444]

Best* lol

[@mickyfin32]

CURIOUS RUNNING A EFI WITH AN EXTERNAL FUEL PUMP HMM.. BETTER PERFORMANCE OR?

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Thats how the Cosworths ran them but i prefer in tank pumps due to surging

[@jritchiejritchie2687]

Tidy mate👌 love the way you work... no messing

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Cheers dude! The only way 😎

[@medievilassassin]

Love the car by the way

[@tylermorris3780]

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Yes mate you can

[@gavinb3988]

Just found your channel mate.. liken it. Got the same in my garage. Your maken me want to get it sorted & get it out. Keep the good work up!

[@jackwilson8753]

As a mechanic myself it’s fresh to see quality work being done instead of cowboys 😂 keep it up mate looks sweet

[@mikesdixon3734]

Top work mate! Keep it up 🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@liamgeorge8477]

Hello mate car is looking awesome and sounding sweet, was just wondering how you got the original bearings out?

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

Cheers dude! The outer casings were tapped out with a small chisel, being careful not to damage the inner hub

[@liamgeorge8477]

Are they different to MK3 as my bearing just won't come out

[@mannion1985]
