Welcome Ryan and love the ST3 great cars really miss mine

djryan25

a few more pics. all taken from my mobile:




























eventually got them neatly enough to get the head unit it

sridgett

Welcome matey!!! Very nice car there dude!

djryan25

cheers fellas, its my last purchase before I get an house lol. so it needs looking after, next on the list is some k sport brakes. mod block maybe more power. im just after getting it spotless first.

sridgett

Sounds like a plane matey! She looks pretty mint, what else is there to fix up?

djryan25

front end chips, carbon needs re glossing. I want to get underside cleaned painted. new bushes etc. im fussy with stuff like that. spending for sake of it I guess. interior heated screen switches were mucky so ended up replacing them. need a hazard switch now. new exhaust tips, cannot get them clean. also gonna upgrade all the usual faults you here before any more modding. im no mechanic but I try my best. I never try to do somet I cant tho. I pay to have it done right.

djryan25

back to the ford lol.

sridgett

Yeah i'm a tad ocd with stuff like that too matey! That will be mint mate! What the fook happend to the front of that 206???

sridgett

It realy is a beautie! Will you be taking it to ford fair?

djryan25

its the 206 gt bumper. it never looked right on photos, looked well in person.

definitely going. prob as a visitor tho. we will see, some lovely motors on here. theres defo some money and skills about. need to get saving.

sridgett

So thats standard peugeot bumper? Thats cool mate, is a shame your not taking the car though, would of loved to of seen it!!!

djryan25

Its not the original gti 180 bumper. But the gt had two larger bumpers. Because it had to be a certain length to compete in the rally. Cheating really lol. The rear bumper looks daft.
I may go yet. See how i get on. Its going with a group to. Still getting to know people.

sridgett

Ahh right, cool! Didn't Richard Burns drive one of those in the WRC? Good stuff do you know anybody round by you in to fords you can go with?

djryan25

Yeah. They will prob want to be a passenger tho lol.

sridgett

Haha lol, have you found regional part of the forum? You should find some people round by you!

djryan25

Yeah. Found it pal. Brains baffled to what to get next. Im in middle of my sound system. But im really wanting a set of k sports. May get bits and bats first. There quite a big purchase at min.

sridgett

Haha this is gonna be such a cool car! I like that your not doing a FRS replica like most do at the mo!, if you don't mind me asking, are k sports pricey then? Any plans engine wise?

djryan25

Na. No rs replica. Even tho it has the wheels and vents. But thats all. About Ł1200 i think for breaks. Not massively expensive but enough for now. Trying to save for an house too.

djryan25

nothing majour to report but fitted all leds in the car including boot and footwells. rear reg plate and cree leds in the sidelights, all around 6000k

djryan25

Also have these to fit. but gonna wait till I purchase the rear coaxials, soundproofing and a decent amp to run all the speakers.





the subwoofer is all ready connected. I was shocked with the power for the size as im used to having dual 12" in the rear, really recommend it too. ive not connected it through the low level but the rca leads, 4 gauge cables throughout.

The rca in the corner are for the front and rear ready for when ive connected and purchased a suitable amp.

sridgett

Good stuff dude! Ł1200!? Really though, that's not to bad! Is that for a complete kit? Where in the uk are you then mate? I live in france but can't wait to move back to the uk! The speakers look cool dude, you know a lot about audio stuff then dude?

djryan25

Sheffield, yeah for the fronts. depends on pads you have. but there is a 12 week delivery lol, shipped by sea, probably by rowing boat but you can pay more but still take up to 8 weeks for delivery. im quite good with the audio, no master. you can get silly again with cost. had about Ł3k worth in last car.

sridgett

Is it nice there mate? 12 weeks?! fook me! Rowing boat, more like paper boat! 3k? Bloody hell that must of had some sound dude! Think i've got two tiny speakers in the back of my mk2 fiesta! Mind you i plan on a straight through exhaust so prob won't here them anyway!!!

NobbyClark

Lovely ST mate. Great colour and I love the mods you have done!!

djryan25

thanx clarkie,
well today I made a start on cleaning the arches, suspension arms etc and painting the calipers. ive gone for red but im not sure if im going keep them that colour. just to freshen it up a little till the weather pics up. only one side done because its feezing ..







I gave the arches a little paint also, just because when I clean the car im fed up of the arches looking filthy even tho they are clean. the disc guard and suspension arms have all been painted with matt black

sridgett

Wow thats looks mint dude! I love the red on the brakes!!!

djryan25

cheers. its growing on me, wanted gun metal grey tho. ill see when I order my calipers on final colour choice. ill give it all a better job, braided hoses, grooved discs and pads. need to do the other side now.

sridgett

Looks very cool to me mate! But woundn't you not see the grey though the wheels as much as red???

djryan25

I wanted subtle at first. then Kawasaki green lol, the reds not ott through the wheels as much as I thought.

sridgett

Looks mint to me mate, so whats you plan for it tomorrow???

djryan25

nothing tomorrow, out with our lass. next week hopefully paint the other side.

Looking good mate

Best colour for an ST IMO. Really liked mine but swapped it for a mk1 Focus RS

djryan25

Thanx. I was in two minds of the rs. But i saw this and loved it. Wanted something a bit newer. I never even took it for a test drive lol. Saw it on the net local to me. Went down loved it and ended buying it. I did give it good look over first. Plus i have a 6 month warranty which includes the turbo. O and maybe had a bit more trust in the garage as it was probably the cheapest car they had. It was parked between a maserati and a bentley.

djryan25

Due to the weather im still of work so I decided to brave the cold and finish my calipers and clean up.
















Ive also stripped the original centre caps and painted them black so I couldn't see no silver round the edge when re-fitted, then added new gel overlays with black with silver writing. Also some bolt covers in black.

sridgett

Looking good matey! Any plans to work on it over the weekend?

djryan25

not this weekend. got nothing for it. maybe a clean tho. if I do it'll be just painting various parts I can strip without a ramp. its a bit too cold to be messing really. just wanted to get these painted as I had already started. Maybe fit my engine cover. we will see lol

sridgett

How bad is the cold where you are dude? You had any snow? What engine cover you got then?

djryan25

around 0 to 2 in the day. had snow the other day but its still around. the engine covers in my first few pics
