Default My FRST from germany
hello, here some pics and my short story from my FRST.
somebody will know my car from the fiestaturbo.com forums.
better pics comes in summer!
hope you like it!

when i bought it 4years ago






engine rebuild after some broken piston rings
















when the engine mods finished, after only 500km, another car crashed my FRST...
rebuild from the shell and new spraying with some mods




















first meeting with my nearly "new" FRST








and one little pic in the december 2008 performance-ford issue (thanks to andrew "wiseman" from FCGB to contact me)





best regards from germany!

ok mates, i think its time for a new update...
there is some progress...

i started a t3 conversion beginning of the year.




i weld a new s/s t3 downpipe, think its better then the genuine ERST pipe








then, cut out the front panel, fit the turbo and coolers...







ok, this one looks better...




the oilcooler find a new place...




after a few test drives, i mount a turbo-cooler to drop the temp piks... it works perfect!







a few weeks later i feel bored an fit a set silicon water hoses, some stainless part, and cnc mashined rear window bolts (alloy)...












the next step was to fit a innovate wide-band-controller and same new spa-design gauges, it think the best i ever used...




last but not least, fit new french fog lights... and here some fresh pics...












at the moment i fit a new engine loom for a dta-management, hope the car is mapped next month...

hope you like it!
best regards from germany!
