do not lower the back its perfect for handling looking smashing tho

[AdamB]

looked awesome at the show mate

[RS rob]

Absolutely love it! Its just how i want my car to look in the next year or so. Its already imperial blue, and i want the zetec s rear and mcr front, its just finding the funds!

Love it

cheers mate
its not imperial blue tho,
its called electric blue from the new evo,
its a mica paint with loads of pearle and metallic flake

[RS rob]

I knew i recognised this I nearly stole your front fogs! Are they new? How much

yes they were brand new, £70 plus vat each off the top of my head

[RS rob]

thanks for the rest of your comments,
really been an awesome weekend,
really enjoyed having the car back, was suprised at the attention it got

might be lowering the car sometime this week,
not in any rush to though, i dont get any rubbing at all except full lock
(which is expected)

should be more updates later this week

[Max M4X WW]

EACH? Thats like over £300

[RS rob]

thats per side, comes with black surrounding brackets
two lamps with no bulbs or loom, also screws come with them to,

[RS rob]

well its been a while since trax and the progress has been slow,
but nether the less been enjoying the car with its new look,

so firstly taken proper pics since trax, lovely location



one showing my seats


this is my fave, shows the straight panels, width on the wheels and a cracking reflection


also very soon i should have some silicone hoses etc for the engine bay,
so got two bits ready,
my nice new radiator and header tank



also trimmed the sides of my number plates as they were far too wide,
but kept them legal also, i think the law states you have to have 11mm border around each font
so i've kept 20mm, a little touch but i'm happier so its all good
i'll have proper day light pics soon to show them better,
but for now,
you'll notice i've put the clear rears on, this is because my german rear lights had indicators which shined white, so waiting for some silvatech indicator bulbs



also changed all the bulbs and cleaned all the connections and got my lights on the front bumper working,
was only expecting the fogs to work as i thought the loom was different to the xr2i/frst which also have spot or driving lamps,

but much to my shock, they work, so i'm really chuffed

[mickylee]

car really is gorgeous. i love it.

[russ_si]

Nice pics mate cars looking great

[sk8xtrm]

looks a stunner, i live locally to you (brackla) and id love to see that, any new updates

[XRMike]

Looks fantastic mate, a nicely modded fiesta

[sk8xtrm]

im still abit shocked i havent seen you going around in that...trust i wouldnt miss it.lol

where did u get the ford racing ht leads from i been trying to get a set for ages

[heeman10]

I hadn't noticed any updates since the beginning of September, and certainly didn't know the car had made it to Trax It looks cracking on the Cossie wheels, and that paint should be a brilliant one to keep looking deep and new When's it getting power?

[RS rob]

sk8xtrm - i'm out nearly everynight so i'm suprised you aint seen me,


heeman10 - still in two minds on which way to go for power, tb's or turbo?
not in a rush to do it, just making sure the car is ready for the power first,

[mike_wall15]

It looks very smart, paint looks ace!
If you're not into detailing, then check out detailing world, and it'll make sure the paint stays perfect

[heeman10]

Turbo. You can't have a car on Cossie wheels running a normally-aspirated engine!

[Xr_Dub]

i love this pic
get a decent engine in to finish the car off

[AndyRS1800]

Bloody hell thats cool, Nice 1

[RS rob]

heres how my engine bay has looked for sometime, dirty etc




so with a few chrome bits,new hearder tank, rad and hoses
thought i'd make a start

out with the old rad and header tank,
shocking the difference compared to the new


changed the thermo stat aswell for good measure


one of the new hoses on


the new header tank with chrome cap and new hoses connected


the overall engine bay, much happier with the new rad
still loads to change and do, like colour coded cam cover etc
but i'm happy with the changes so far


you can even see the rad with the bonnet closed, so i'm happier

[XRMike]

Awsome looking car mate

[RS rob]

also got some other pics,
decided i'd try some different wheels for a change
diamond cut RS 7's
bit dark in the first two






also got some seat covers to help look after the puma racing seats

[ant pittaway]

amazing car! a real credit to you mate, all the hard work has been worth it deffo mate, love the cossie rims, mmmm straight panels! what most fiesta driver dream off!


well done mate

[RS rob]

cheers mike and ant
the novelty has worn off now,
so i just tend to look at the car with more idea's and shopping list lol

[M4tty]

looks class! the RS 7's suit the car alot better imo.

[heeman10]

I can't make my mind up which I prefer out of the Cossie wheels or RS7s. It's a nightmare with wheels as popular as the RS7s as they're on about 15% of all Fords on the road now Same goes for Escort GTI 15s and Mondy 16s. Yes, they look good, but they're not individual any more. If that's not your thing (the individuality thing) then it's fine. I'm not after having a completely unique car, just a car that I like, so it doesn't bother me that 3 in 4 Mk3 Fiestas have my wheels

The radiator and header tank were much needed! Why does it look like the header tank already has tea in it though Is it weird anti-freeze or does the engine all need a good flushing out? It'd be a shame to stain a brand new tank straight away

Can you lower it any without it scrubbing?

[RS rob]

its fords own anti freeze, which did'nt have much colour to it a slight purple only,
i really wanted to flush the head out, but did'nt want to look for more work
as i dont really want to spend any money on this engine, i just want it to last until the new lump is ready,

the rs7's are nice and look great at night,
but dont have the same full fat effect the cossie's do,
so they'll be back on soon,

as for lowering, a dodgy vibrating from either gearbox or shaft when going right, so have'nt lowered her since being back from the bodyshop as it gets worse the lower the car,

still got the low milage diesel box to go in for now,
also new gearbox linkage, but waiting to sort a b&m selector hopefully so i can do it all at once,
then she'll be tastefully lowered

[dennehyboy]

i love ur car lol
