From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.

I know, I'm gutted it's a ford only show. Was so looking forward to my slow frugal drive to silverstone

Well I ordered up a set of Wilwood four pots for the car as I wasn't convinced by the sheer weight of the Cossie ones and they weren't going to fit under my wheels.
So they arrived on Monday and got them on last night after getting all my wheel weights shifted a bit further in
Got them bled tonight and they are fucking awesome!!! Only done 30 or so miles but they are just getting better and better each time they are used!!



Had a play around with fitting my seats and harnesses tonight as well and I need different eyebolts as the fez isn't metric for the seat belt anchor points!!
Small mod to do on the side mount frames I've got and drivers seat should be in. Hopefully can get eyebolts for Saturday and get harnesses in for Ford Fair too : D

Paul

They look smart I always wanted a set but haven't got round to it yet. Did you buy these new?

very nice buddy

some very nice bits being fitted to the old fezza

Danny,
Yeah bought new from Rally Design. They are part number Bk12H but his isn't listed on their website. It's the replacement for the old Bk12D kit which is obsolete.

Cheers Terry, hopefully the car stays in one piece long enough to enjoy them lol

Paul

A tidy fit

They are perfect for the wheels.
With weights on in line with the calipers they are about 2mm too proud and catch on one edge so just perfect with the weights moved inboard slightly

My seat mounts are being modified at work just now to fit on the standard runner upright bolts so should get them fitted tomorrow (out tonight or it would be done then!) and new eyebolts coming for the harnesses hopefully tomorrow so they'll get put in at the same time

Then all I need to do is drive to Silverstone, not kill myself on track and drive it back without breaking down

We shall see

Was that you I caught up with today and overtook?

Yes, I was "stuck" behind that ST!!
Should have put my coilovers on as it was all over the place in the corners lol

Pfft! Stuck behind an ST? I had no problem with them haha.

Was a good session! Coilovers would make all the difference for sure.

he had a slight breather chucking oil everywhere issue to

Well I think I have the breathing problem sorted. Have ordered one of Will Pedley Racings Zetec breather fittings as my standard one is clearly not doing it's job properly and I'm getting a bailey catch tank off a mate. Ordered some hoses for it all today too so will get that installed some time soon!

As for the coil overs I'm in two minds as to whether to install them on this shell or not as I'm 90% certain I'm getting a 3door one shortly. Will see what happens with that....

nice Paul. Those wilwoods look the tits.

hurry up with this video too!

Guessing you've been looking at the minty mint ones on ebay?

Right, well as there has been no update from me in the last 6 months I guess it's fair to say bugger all has happened with the Fiesta...and that's my problem, I don't have time to tinker with it any more as I'm on my own with my daughter so once she's in bed I can't go out to the garage in case she needs me....soooo....as much as it pains me she's up for sale (the car that is not my daughter although if anyone wants to offer a decent price I can throw her into the deal to )

I'll get around to putting up a proper for sale thread, one for the car and one for all the shite I have accumulated, but if anyone wants the car or any bits above just give me a shout.

Car as is, quick spec 2.0 with HO Inlet, Sparco buckets and harnesses, Wilwood fronts, Focus Disc rears, MOT'd to August'ish looking for around £750.
For a grand I'll throw in the brand new GAZ coilovers.
For 2 grand i'll throw in the coilovers and the refurbished quaife straight cut BC box with Ford LSD

Price is open for discussion as I don't really want to break her, but if I need to I will as I have a garage so can store the bits and moneys not required urgently!!

What have I got to replace her I hear you may be asking?! Well, I wanted rid of the Civic also as I hate driving it so needed something practical(ish), safe and fairly quick to cover all bases from the Civic and Fiesta so I went and bought this















Needless to say covers all bases and a few more

sweet

will you still come to shows?

Cheers dude

Yeah man, I'm still up for heading to shows, still love Fords and will always have a soft spot for the Si
One day I'll maybe get another Ford and track it, but for the forseeable it ain't gonna happen so would rather someone else made use of my one and the stuff I have.

Paul

that's fair enough mate

How's the S3 then?

Hell of a nice car! shame about the Si but practicality rules all the older we get.
