for what little the liner weigh you may as well leave them in mate, you can lose more than what they are in other areas

[purple_fiesta]

I never had liners in my fiesta, had no problems

[Max M4X WW]

Maybe leave the bits that cover holes into the engine bay!

[luca]

Take the liners out, i have no problems mate. the one occasion i got caught out it didt splash in the bay at all just inner wings...

Im making a new carbon liner on passenger this year though to sheild the air filter that will be located there

[Turboboy67]

Well I've just picked these up



Best £100 I have spent for a while
Cheers to ads_t for them and my free 4 point Willans harness , your a star mate

Might have to uprate the springs on the front of the car but will see how they handle first

fitting tomorrow

£100 for those coil overs bargain hunter

[jayrs]

nice mate

[Captain Tightpants]

Good price.

I've seen and looked after a few Fiestas without Liners, 16v & Turbos over the years. None ever saw any problems from it.

so do i

[Turboboy67]

Your making me fell slightly guilty guys .................not

Fitted the coilovers today,

also fitted my track wheels to see how she will sit, in a word, low

Front can still come down 20mm & rear about 30mm

but I wasn't that brave and might not of got it out of my parents drive if I had dumped it any lower



From ground to arch lip its 525mm on the rear front is atm 530mm

When I set them up the rears were 10mm higher but after a small test drive they settled down , front didn't move, but I will lower front another 10mm for my first track day.

But omg, is it a hard ride, mind you its all set up on the hardest settings, love it






So tomorrow I'm mopping the paint,

not even polished it since I've owned it so it due a bit of a pamper.

Results tomorrow evening

[jayrs]

loving it mate

[ads_t]

Looking good shaun!

Is that it pretty much finished then except for the polycarb front windows???

[heeman10]

I say the rear is fine matey, but the front could do with coming down relative to the back end I would think. It'd be good to have a play, even if you only make one height adjustment, during the Combe sessions, to see what works best Looks great on those wheels!

[Turboboy67]

Cheers for the comments guys,

ads, Got to fit my small battery, replace cam-belt, tensioners, water pump, lower arms,

lighten the front bumper, dash, rear bumper,rear panel more, and yeah do the front windows

James, I'm gonna lower the front by another 10mm tomorrow,
as I say it was intially set up 5mm lower than the rears, after they settled it was 5mm higher

But when I fit my Super T's back on for road use,
I'm sure I will need to raise it by at least 20mm.

I find that extremely hard to believe

Looking a bit mean now mate on them wheels, I like it

[heeman10]

Just checking, since you said it could come a further 20mm down on the front and 30mm on the rear I know you like it all at the rear if possible!

[Turboboy67]

Its true Ross

Its untrue James

( Think I got that around the correct way )

[Tweek]

[hb69]

Looks good, i do like those wheels, the only problem i had with them on mine was they allow too much body roll on track with the large sidewall, they do look mighty fine though

[luca]

Hello boss

Looking good indeed, i would raise the back slightly though.

WHY?

Why not

[happypaul]

Looks wicked, I want mine sitting like that!

[Turboboy67]

Either the back will be raised or preferably the front will be dumped further

I have a crafty plan which will eliminate the need to guess the ride heights on the various wheels combos the car will be running.

Once I 'm happy with each set up I measure and record the distance between the spring height adjuster and the base of the strut, This will ensure that I don't spend hours jacking the car up and down

[Sphinx]

If you're REALLY serious about cutting down the weight you should ditch the bumpers and bodykit all-together

[Turboboy67]

I have a cunning plan for the bumpers fella,

body kit better stay, I'm fairly sure what I will find if I take it off

[Sphinx]

body kit better stay, I'm fairly sure what I will find if I take it off

I thought that might be the case
Plus, they just look boring without Gotta look good when you're hooning around the track

[Tweek]

body kit better stay, I'm fairly sure what I will find if I take it off

At least it helps with weight reduction

[luca]

shaun - what tyres and size are those

[Turboboy67]

They are Yokohama 032-r fella 185/60/13

The tyre walls are tougher than normal they had a job to get them on the rims

Profiles looks huge though

Bodykit doesn't weight much, bumpers will be lightened further.

Lots still to do, I am going as fast as I can guys

[jayrs]

any luck with that guy i put you on to with the race tyres/wheels?

[Turboboy67]

Not yet mate, I will give him a ring on Monday

[jayrs]

cool
if you pick up, you wanna grab me some rear belts out of his xr2

[rs-tom]

alright mate lovin that car i was the first to see the post for them coilovers and i already have the same set but for a hundred quid i did think about buying em as they can sell for 200 - 250 alllday. i just have one small question about em though.do the front rebound adjusters click into place or do they just turn. mine just turn but the rears click into place as u turn it
