Glad my advise worked shame about the box and clutch though, this is going to be a problem for I many I feel.
Hopefully we can come up for something for track and Pod, will need settings altered etc but I aim to use the same hardware.

Can only vote for one car Ive got an FRST, 2 ERST'2 and a Focus RS but most interested in parts for the FRST. Current stats are 12.78 1/4, 0-60 4.9, 0-100 9.5 running on Yoko Advan's 195-50-15's at 14 psi. Been looking at running a 205-50-15 on the front. Any recommendations fro a road legal and also a nice sticky strip only tyre?

And also I'm going to be doing a promotion on the new Avon ZZR road legal track day tyre in early 2006
with regards to Ford only work, I'll work on ANY type of car and I'm willing to try anything new with regards customers own ideas, the only thing I ask from a customer is that there end result is to GO FAST!!!

S1 with 400bhp.
Got Avo coilovers on the front, Bilstein coilovers on the rear, adjustable tca's , safety devices 6 point cage with door bars too. Was fully corner weighted and that made a hell of a difference
Will be looking for the other bits to make it handle well and help put the power down with more grip.
Very interested in what you come up with Danny
