Bought this cracking Focus off Tel, my thread is a continuation of his https://passionford.com/forum/restor...-focus-rs.html









Loads of little jobs started, door cards removed, CD player and speakers gone, scan gauge and boost controller to be mounted in center consol, adjustable seat runner came today and the list goes on

 

stunning in that colour

 

Looks very cool

 

love this

 

that colour is awesome

 

is that sunstrip just satin vinyl?

 

Cool track car.

 

looks like it, Tel who i bought the car off will comfirm what it is when he see's this no doubt

 

very nice cant wait to see it out and about

 

Matt black it is.

Are the inside of the doors getting carbo panels or painted white?

Nice to see a thread up.....keep the updates coming.

 

I like carbon panels but will paint it white for now, got to get the cage in first that's the priority

 

Wired in the tyre pressure monitor and thought it was faulty, front 2 tyres were 36psi, rear passenger was 48psi and drivers side rear 11psi. Checked with my normal gauge and was bang on lol. stuck a tow sticker on the front aswel

 

Hi Steve,

Was excited to hear through the grap vine you had this. Looks great... top purchase.

Where/how do I book my ride!?!

 

Dude, this is going to be so much fun , really can't wait for it to hit the track

Don't want to pay your tyre or fuel bills lol

Never been called a grape before lol

 

Looks good mate

 

I think the first trackday is probably going to be next April, got loads on in the next few months and the car needs some bits to get it up to spec

 

Nice colour, wheels look tough as fcuk

 

Grey club....nice one

 

that looks an intersting project mate

 

They both look tough in grey don't they

 

maybe i need grey hair then

 

would take more than grey hair

 

that 3dr in your sig is the best looking sierra ive ever seen.

 

Sweet focus, great project for the track

 

One of the best colors for a track car imo!!! Love it!!

 

Love it.id be scared to use it on track tho as its too clean for that!

 

10 mins with the socket set and the fronts off, need to see if it will go into my garage (fairly steep ramp down to it) and also has a missing exhaust manifold stud and another that has snapped off so will strip rad out and remove turbo and manifold to sort that. Also will wrap the manifold once its off

 

Was a bit of a pain but got her into my garage, the ramp in front is quite steep and had to use the long ramps off the trailer.

 

After an hour with the spanners she looks like this, sort out the broken manifold stud and wrap the exhaust manifold and check everything over



















Looking forward to performance ford tomorrow, should be a good read

 

Love this car

 

It's all Tel's work but i will improve it and make it my own

 

Love this FRS

I have loads of pictures of this from RS national day


Brian

 

Performance Ford wanted it on their stand on sunday, shame I took it apart now lol

 

I hope you remember we're everything goes Steve

Good read in PF

 

should be ok Sinbad, was supprised how easy it comes apart lol

 

my only purchase at national day, pair ford racing badges

 

You and your frigging stickers lol

 

I like stickers, whats wrong with stickers? think u need some stickers

 

B1tch of a job doing the manifold wrap but got there in the end

 

That looks a neat job.

While its in bits, is it not worth getting the engine bay painted grey?
