2000 Fisher Fury, 2024 top spec rebuild, Tracsport LSD, 170bhp Zetec

Bought as a project car and stripped back to a bare chassis, before being freshly powdercoated and equipped with an MSA-regulation roll bar (which flares out to provide a little side impact protection). All bearings, polybushes, rose-joints, rubber drivebelts, CVs etc are new.
The build was fully documented in Complete Kit Car and almost every nut, bolt, seal and fixing is new. The idea was to create a near race-spec car for fast road use and track days (so no full cage as they ruin road usability).
The original Dunnell 165 Zetec silvertop engine had only covered just over 4000 miles prior to the rebuild and judging by the condition of the cams (checked when the cambelt was changed) this is correct. It had a carb rebuild and new K&N air filters as well as being rolling road tuned. It actually made 170bhp on the rolling road.
Since the rebuild the car has covered under 200 miles including one track day and one sprint. Thanks to the unique custom Great British Sportscars CAD-designed fully independent rear suspension and the new ATR dampers the handling is excellent. It also has a Tracsport (super expensive) LSD fitted so it is very stable when under full power on track, even when running the curbs.
It’s surprisingly quick and can really get the power down. It’s a pleasant roadcar while still being able to do the business on track.

Spec as follows:
• Dunnell 165 engine on twin Weber carbs (rebuilt with new seals) developing 170bhp
• Dunnell ignition mappable ECU
• New fuel pump, E85 compatible hoses, fuel filter and fuel regulator
• All new silicone hoses
• New custom-made aluminium radiator with new electric fan
• Type 9 gearbox
• New clutch with lightened flywheel
• Hydraulic clutch conversion from Retroford
• Wilwood hydraulic pedal box with twin-master cylinders and on-dash bias adjustment
• Tracsport plate LSD diff set up by BGH Geartech (this is the ultimate LSD set-up)
• Rebuilt rear driveshafts with new joints on all ends
• New wheel bearings front and rear
• Custom rear independent suspension designed in CAD and fabricated by Great British Sportcars
• Custom ATR aluminium fully adjustable dampers set up by GBS
• Unique adjustable rising rate suspension adjustment platforms front and rear
• Alignment and geometry set up by GBS
• New Powerflex bushes and rose-joints throughout suspension
• Quick rack steering with polybush mounts
• All track-rod ends and ball-joints are new
• New Nankang AR1s on freshly powdercoated period GT wheels
• Spare rear wheels and new Nankang AR1 tyres ( to give choice of 205 or 185 rears)
• New front calipers, drilled and vented discs and Mintex 1144 pads
• New brakes shoes, slave cylinders and drums at rear
• All brake pipes new with Goodridge stainless hoses
• Chassis freshly powdercoated and reinforced around the front suspension / steering rack
• All aluminium panels, removed, powdercoated and resealed
• Custom JP Cages MSA-spec tall roll bar fitted (loads of helmet clearance)
• Twin fiberglass seats with removable padding
• New Schroth Enduro six-point harness (dated 2028)
• Momo steering wheel with removable boss
• New Autosparks wiring loom and all instruments and switchgear
• GPS speedo
• FEV plumbed-in fire extinguisher system with external cables and six nozzles
• FIA-spec battery and ignition cut-out switch with external cables
• LED lights front and rear
• New Varley Red Top battery

Negative points – paintwork isn’t the best as I resprayed it in my garage (the original red gelcoat had faded in patches). It chips with enthusiasm!

So why am I selling it? Well I bought the car to save it more than anything else and as this is now complete, it’s time to move on. I’m after a pre-94 Formula Ford next.
Based in Nottingham so contact me on 07866 634086 to view and test drive it. Offers around £9000
