updates page 1

[simhopper]

why have you cut the new front arches,there are meant to be bolt on not bond

you will not be able to lower the rear anymore as the axle will have no travel if you try

if you want to go lower on the front the tops of the chassis legs need to be cut to follow the curve of the wheel

if i was you i would bin those replica arches and get some proper spec items from mdv,those that you have look a recipe for disaster and i would expect them to crack very quicky

looks like its going to be a beast

[fezSTturbo]

the back will have to go lower,its about 8 inch above the wheel
im blending the arches in,not just bolting them on.
the front is fine hight wise,im happy with it.
there will be no cracks with skillcustoms buildng it belive me mate.
i would of got the kit from m-sport but i only met my contact there after id bought it from pumaspeed,gutted.
it will be fine anyway.

[RAT8OY]

You will not go wrong with Ian @ Area six.

Used him for 10+ years and cant fault him one bit!

Keep up the good work fella!

even the shortest springs that gaz will sell you will not get the back down

a standard spring is around 9", a kw item is around 7" and thats before its compressed

only other option is to strengthen the rear turrets and put a full coilover damper on like i did,but again you will have to modify the axle to suit,get m-sport to send you some pics of how there modify theres

[fezSTturbo]

dont worry mate,it will be fine trust me.

[COCHYN]

Awsome!

[fezSTturbo]

just to let people know the full stright through exhaust on this car is up for sale,its unreal,and hasnt been used apart from to go down the road to test the engine build,it sounds like a rally car.
only selling coz its in the way of the back being loward so im having another made up specially.
pm me if interested.
its a full 3" stainless area six built stright through and is not for the faint hearted or those with moaning neighbours.

[ultrav87]

Looks like it has the potential to be a great car, but if was you i would take all the advice simhoppers giving you as hes been there before with a project like this, learn from other peoples experiences!

Keep up the project, should be a great ar when it's finished.

[steve7786]

Agreed with the above comment, i'd be asking him all sorts of questions with regards to finishing the project off.

[fezSTturbo]

ok,
we have found a way to get the back down AND keep the exhaust,so i *think* its no longer for sale.
got some good quality pics tonight,will upload in a bit.
dont actually need any advise,but i will allways listen.(no offence)

Oh it is! Love the build,, going to be a stunning car

[wide ka]

looks very good, hats off to you for doing this to such a new car not sure on some of the bits like the smoothed doors and a car pc,

[fezSTturbo]

the car pc connects to the pectal ecu,just like a laptop would,and displays info about whats going on under the bonnet.... make sence now??
also has built in sat-nav/routefinder.
photoshopped the handles and it looked really nice actually mate so heres hoping it looks ok.

[wide ka]

yeah does buddy, will be cool as

[fezSTturbo]

QUICK UPDATE ON PAGE ONE,VIDEO CLIP.
will get some updated pics tonight...

[Luca]

i have serious concerns with your rear arches

Mate these will need to be cut much much higher or your shell arches will slice your tyre and wheel in half…

[fezSTturbo]

not the final height mate,waiting for new coilovers and cutting more.
dont worry.

[Luca]

Happy days mate

Be good fun that will....

[G1EN]

i agree. put the updates on the last page and just update the title to say update on page such n such.. lol

but looking awsome m8. love the way the mk6 looks with jwrc on.

[jammy86]

Sweet!

I dont know if anyone knows heeman form FT but he puts his update as a new post and then edits his first post with a link to the latest update and all other updates. its a good system, means you can just jump to the relevant posts.

JAmes.

[fezSTturbo]

UPDATES UPDATE UPDATES UPDATES UPDATE UPDATES UPDATES UPDATE UPDATES

trail fitting the focusRS fins





splitter will not fit flush as the intercooler wont allow it because of the airscoops to the brakes and its too low down so adjustments will have to be made


and random pics,sorry,not the steadiest of hands.will let g/f do it next time lol.

[smitsturbo]

[fezSTturbo]

teamRS colours,white and blue (like the pic on the in car pc screen)

[dumptackler]

im considering doin a similar project 2 this where did you get your body kit from and are there any cheaper versions im not worried about weight because its gunna have a cossie lump in it ( well i hope anyways if i get the money together). are you 4 wheel driving it mate or you having all your power through front wheels? if you are 4 wheel driving it where did you get all your kit from i cant't seem to find any ive seen other 4wd fiestas around so someone must do them
