Tuning
Established in 1998, this is the 12th year on the World Wide Web for Zetecinside.com. On this site you'll find (amongst other things) how to install and modify the Ford Zetec and Ford Duratec engines for fast road/competition use.
A quick overview
Based in the UK (
) the Zetecinside web site documents how I built my 1983 Ford Fiesta XR2 for hillclimbing and sprinting, and how I tackled many of the obstacles to installing the Zetec (and now the Duratec) engine, and it also lists my results in speed events in and around the United Kingdom.
The website attracts more than 10,000 visitors a month, and it's popularity is growing all the time.
Please remember that this is a hobby site.
I'm not running a business, just trying to make ends meet and using the Internet to publicise my activities to help raise sponsorship, and in turn, publicity for my sponsors.The zetecinside.com site today, features almost 1GB of information amassed since 1998, including the full build diary, and natural evolution of my Sports Libre specification 1983 Mk1 Ford Fiesta from Series II Zetec 2.0, to the latest 2008 spec Mazda designed Ford Duratec DHE420 engine as used in the European Ford Fiesta ST Mk6, the Focus, and the Mondeo. At the same time, the XR2 is being completely revamped, with the very latest DTA S80Pro engine management system, new wiring loom, carbon dashboard, and a completely revised lightweight competition specification front and rear suspension system.

I require sponsorship, for the 2010 British Sprint Championship season, and in return for financial support, discounts, or services, I can provide advertising space on both the web site and the car.
How to get in touch
Due to the volume of SPAM that I receive, my email address changes periodically and from 2008 onwards it is the one shown on the left. Please use this address if you wish to send me an email. Most of my old addresses are now set to be bounced, so if you receive a message saying Unknown User, please try again using the address shown here. I do try to answer all my emails, but sometimes I do get distracted by the toy in the garage.

 | Check out my high quality Youtube videos, taken on board the Fiesta, and also from the track side, using bullet cameras and digital video recorders. And not just footage of my car, there are clips of other hillclimbers too. And some other silly stuff naturally. |
 | During August 2006, my XR2 appeared on page 81 of the US Grassroots Motorsports magazine. The Fiesta appeared on the front cover of October 2003's Retro Cars Magazine, and has also made appearances in The Clinic in Cars and Car Conversions. She's also appeared in Performance Ford, Fast Ford, and even Revs! Check the Stop Press page for details on all the magazine appearances. Regularly winning awards for the Best Prepared Car, she continues to draw crowds wherever she goes. |
