Now I know why I couldn't get my old fiesta around the track faster.
No lexus lights.
If you're making a track car on a budget, sack all the weight off you can, put decent tyres on it and go have fun, everything else comes afterwards.

Michelin pilot exalto 2's are the king of wet if you are sticking with a road tyre.
I've also got some 300mm st170 brakes for sale if you're interested, along with a billion other fiesta related bits!

well when ajc came down in his st i was 4 seconds a lap slower than him and that was with me have 100bhp less (min my 1.25 is dieing lol) and on std tyres with him on semi slicks and i had std suspension where he doesnt. So hopeful when he comes down next or i go up the fiesta will only be down on abit of power but good handling lol and should run rings around him then lol. (hopefully)

Yeah i heared the old ones were good and the new wasnt so good but didnt know how bad, My Buget tyres were griping better in the wet than the t1r's lol, thay was so bad the bloke swap them for semi slicks which he said there much better for grip in the wet.

not getting svt rear bumper,(for now) but getting svt sideskirts off same guy sending me front bumper but not until christmas probably.. and as i said i dont really want the rear svt bumper, it sticks out so much, although it would finish off the svt look a treat if i got it, so it is something to ponder on for next year. I could get the rear bumper easily enough, that is not a problem.

Well ive finaly start the conversion and started ripping things out of the car, Inside im done to just the carpet, dash and two front seats, Engine bay ive disconected all the coolant system and wire plugs.
Also ive going out and picked up everything i need to put on the new engine and gearbox engine oil, gearbox oil, coolant, oil filter, aux drive belt, cam belt kit all for a nice Ł175 lol (nearly cost more than the engine lol)
Ps. Im doing a full wiring change hence why the inside is coming out, Ill be on the dive ecu for the mine but am going to get the tape ecu.

Haha yeh a yb would be nice!! Lol. This really didn't cost too much to do!! It's a focus rs mk1 engine.'i fabricated a new engine mount and I'm running it with an ib5 box at the mo so it uses the same gearbox and dogbone mounts. It's running an eaton m45 charger while the m62 is being rebuilt. Got a front mount ic and then a water inj setup for if the temps start to climb.

And today ive stripped out all the inside done to a bare shell and fitted the new digi loom and stripped out the engine bay loom and fitted the 1.7 loom which will be all for today as ive got to get ready for work but the engine and gearbox will be fitted tomorrow.

Well not much to say really i finaly got the old bushs out of the rear beam and hit the poly ones in and bolted on the 12mm spacers and 280mm st setup and then bolted it onto the car still need to sort out the brake lines and hand brake, Also ive fitted the 1.7 engine as well but still needs the driveshafts and water pipes fitted but i need to replace the whole front suspension setup first.
Ill get some pictures up after work or after ive sorted out a party im plan for saturday.
Must say i fking hate the drivers side wishbone caused problems with removal and fitting of the engines.
