Default Ford Focus ST170, Coilovers fitted! 29/11/09

I'm only new to the site so thought id share a few pictures of the motor.

Pretty standard car bar aero wipers and philips blue vision bulbs lol

I have a set of coilovers ordered so hopefully by next weekend it will be sitting slightly lower.

Thats a tidy ST170 fella, looks like as low milage one too. Very nice. Subtle is the way to go with these. My only comment would be that im not keen on the number plate. Would look much better with a standard plate.

Looking forward to getting the coils fitted!

I no their not the best but all im looking is the car to be level. It sits high at the back like any other st170 but id rather have it level. Have bought new top mounts aswell.

and if anyone wants to help with this it would be great

Up-date!

Over the last couple of days I received and fitted a set of coil-overs. A vast improvement over the standard ride height and handling. They could go a lot lower but for drive-ability I'm happy with the setting for the mean time and i don't want the car to look like one of them ep3 civics wiping its ass on the ground. I'm sure they will settle more over time as well.

A few pic's in the driveway.

Thanks for the comments, the interior is very clean although the picture above does show the mats out but i do have genuine ford mats for it also. The drivers seat also sports a seat cover to keep it in good condition.

Next step hopefully will be a milltek system if one pops up on ebay lol
