My Focus WRC
hey whats everybody upto these days, not been on here properly for a while.
Im currently driving this..
Focus 2 litre Zetec WRC replica, genuine Pumaspeed widearch kit (the spoiler isnt to everybodys taste and not mine really thinking of removing it), 10x18 Compomotives, K&N filter, stainless manifold, stainless straight through exhaust, Remapped ECU, ST focus Recaro interior.
its a genuine nice motor and i think it could be a long term turbo project, the next plan though is to fit Coilovers.

Im unsure on the spoiler to be honest, i think it stands our way to much for my liking lol.
Cochyn, do you know much about the car mate?

yeah im the same mate, its definately a talking point... i just cant make my mind up - i think it looks better on the white car but i think thats also down to the fact the white car has graphics etc.

*UPDATE*
I now have the car 12 months MOT, Tax and have removed the spoiler so to speak.. it almost removed itself because it was poorly fitted!
Took the car to the local hand carwash who done a wicked job getting it looking back to its best.
Next plan is to remove the rubber moulding on the back window where the spoiler was mounted (if it will remove, otherwise replace the glass or boot!) then im going to be on the hunt for an RS spoiler!
Exhaust needs a slight adjustment because its just hitting the diffuser and causing a little bit of rattle but this is just me being picky!!

In the future im definately going to either turbo the 2 litre engine in it or put some kind of rs/cossie engine in there - when money permits though!
It is immense in real life, so wide :P

The spoiler is for sale...
Some slight splitting in the middle but nothing that cant be repaired, that to the bottom left of the spoiler on this pic is a reflection from the window aswell not a scuff.
