ROLLCAGE DONE (well,2 little triangles to go in the rear cross bar that match the door bar ones)
this is a proper J-WRC cage fitted by mark who did the first 6 m-sport fiesta J-WRC cars and still does alot of the WRC cars today.
its conected to the suspension so the car is rock solid when cornering etc.
ive missed out a diagonal bar from corner of roof to floor behind seats as i thought it looked abit clumsy,and a cross brace accross the roof which was missed out (as the 1st J-WRC cars did because of the position of the roof scoops which is why the next batch of cars had the scoops closer together to alow the big roof cross brace)
i like them spread apart though...
the guy is a wealth of knowledge on J-WRC cars and has been interrogated thoroughly haha.

i know...getting some smaller springs i think.
we thought they would be fine but like you say,theres nothing inside it i guess.
all the other JWRC cars about are really high but i dont want mine quiet that high so we`ll have to see.

thanks mate.
prob more like 300 but still more then enough in a car that weighs as much as my nan...lol
OK,
update time.
dash has been fitted in around the cage nicely,then taken back out and is in my living room now waiting for me to take it to be flocked lol.
had some good extra ideas about the body which were working on (which is partly why its taking so long as i keep adding new sugestions).
the MAD fez is in the spray booth to get the cage in prima,starting to look more and more awsome...
(ignore the overspray inside,car is being resprayed frozen white anyway)

its that time again i guess,updates!!!!!
now then,weve been a bit quiet lately as the rear bumper is being totally changed to take the number plate in a way that if we can pull it off should look really nice so im not going to show that.
what i can show (as well as the paint pics) is this idea i had about the front bumper which we have canned,as it didnt look as good in real life as it did in my head lol.
inspiration obviously from the new focus...
and a very quick mock up (forgive my paintshop skills) of roughly what it could of looked like
(sorry if this is your car lol )
anyway,opinions on that? should i have gone ahead and done it?
ok,paint pics.
frozen white,stripes not painted yet (only had my phone with me so the paint gets absoloutly no justice here but belive me,
it looks awsome and its not even finished on these pics.
i had some mats made up by the way with the area six and STT logos stiched in.
and finally,just for fun,a pic i found which my car will look alot like

fantastic work mate
but such a shame it isnt going to get a proper engine and transmisission to match the awesome looks and jwrc cage etc,
no the less i love it and cant to wait to get to that stage with mine although i only got the base shell yesterday so it will be a while to say the least

but you said proper engine AND transmission,they are two seperate things.
this confirms you meant engine AND transmission.
yea,i know too mate,i have one.
i dont like your attitude,so...no.

not a single one of my post were said with any kind of attitude towards you or your car, they were purely my own preferences or opinions and i kindly asked a couple of questions for you to answer to which you ignored or did not see so i asked again, and you got defensive about my comments so i clarified i did not mean your engine was not a proper engine etc, you just took it wrong! so i will not post on your topic and waste anymore of your or my own time.
so you can go and put all your little toys back in your pram or amuse someone else with your childish replies, you obviously have alot of growing up to do.
good luck with the project
