Morning gents. Nothing really impressive, just a bit of a diary about the life of my ST170 track car. I wont bore you with all the modifications fitted to it, but if there's any questions feel free to ask.
Bought the car pretty much as it stands now. Credit to the previous owner.... he really put together a nice handling car.
as soon as i got it home, first thing on the list was to have a general nosey round the car to see if/what parts need replacing. After getting underneath, it was pretty apparent i was going to need to replace the front subframe (which luckily was included in the sale)
along side this rot, both sills needed plating at the rear, the power cable needed a gromet on it where it went through the bulkhead, brake lines need replacing on the back within the next 12 months, drivehsaft seals need doing, and i was in diar need of a set of harnesses.
Straight on ebay, and managed to bag myself a set of TRS 6 points.
rightly or wrongly, i've used the holes originally for the base of the seats, and drilled through the floor for the remaining points and plated them underneath.
Booked myself some track time at FordFair. Unfortunately only 1 20 minute session. Loved every second of it! The car held it's own on the track and i felt very confident driving it.
more to follow
