Love love love the interior in this

cheers pal

[pauldolman]

water injection system all plumbed in now


new showplate, motorbike size



tyre finally fitted on my new 5th azev alloy





had some new stainless vin tags made up

wasn't best impressed with all the surface scratches


but after a polish on the wheel at work they came up as new




picked this up off ebay the other week, a old spec-r alley brake master cylinder reservoir, i think there very rare these days, it origionally ran abs and the holes have been welded up but i've been asured it's a striaght fit onto a non abs brake master cylinder

this is how it arrived




welds ground down just needs a final polish at work






few pics of the fiesta at the rsoc central day

[jonyb4]

My pleasure, i was telling my mates how it still has my old mirrors

i got a habit of wide angle engine shots
i did spot the new vin plates, nice touch





arty shot of another on your stand

[pauldolman]

cheers mate it's always nice to see other peoples pics of my car

[pauldolman]

gave my spec-r brake reservoir a final polish at work today, looks good






just need to work out how to drain my brake reservoir, any ideas?, are they just a push fit?

update

i'm in the process of collecting parts to convert my fiesta to run air injectors, proper wrc technology because i run a ex wrc cosworth p8 ecu it was always a extra i could add on to the car, no extra mapp needed

here's the bits so far

air injector loom







brand new bosch air injectors



i've just ordered the RS Cosworth twin air injector alloy mounting bracket all CNC machined which should come through early part of next week, then ill need some high pressure festo connections and vacum lines, but parts are coming together now

[FRSJON]

all looking good paul,just need to see this car used in anger now

[pauldolman]

all looking good paul,just need to see this car used in anger now

will be when i can get all the arch issues sorted

[pauldolman]

cnc machined air injector bodys


striped and polished at work






ordered a small stainless plate to mount everything on and next is to get high pressure fittings and a few bits of vacum pipe and should be all there

[pauldolman]

air injectors all mocked up





new fittings sourced, look really smart






changed my mind about the vacume lines and decided to run some metal braided lines for the air injector and also ordered some finishing joints too, air injectors have been turned round in the body so they face the bleed blank, loom plugged in so should be all ready to go







everything all working now, just needs a tweek to the engine map and see what boost levels we can get away with running

Looking good mate iv not your since your car since you got everything put in ,braided hose on the air injectors looks good where did you get the black hose ends from? I need to get some for my fuel return hose

hi chris cheers fella the black fittings came from ebay by a trader called torques on there

[pauldolman]

fiesta has been at the painters/welders since fordfair, it’s been in there for 2 main jobs the first was to have the inner/outer/floor sill joint completely cut off all the way along the drivers side( the other side was all done a few years ago) which once we got into it was a bit more involved than we first thought but pleased to say it’s all done, super impressed with the blokes work, the bodykit that had to be removed has been repainted, it was really overdue to be done had loads of cracks in it which I’ve known for some time but wasn’t worth doing it before as I knew it would need doing when everything was stripped off to do the sill anyway


galvonised sill














the other job it’s in there for is a mod to the scuttle panel, I’m having the extra wiper hole welded up and smoothed over, also found a company who can supply me a new heated windscreen which we are putting in as well, not sure how differcult to wire in but I’m sure it can’t be too hard

quile it's been away I've sourced another s/h bailey header tank and swirl pot, both needed a bit of a refurb but I've done this oat work, removed loads of gouges and deep scratches in the metal and a good machine polish





after

[willowandmikey]

Wow that's come up nicely how did you polish it up so nicely

[pauldolman]

Wow that's come up nicely how did you polish it up so nicely

the goudges were sanded out and machined polished out at work, part of my work is a metal polished of brass and silver items so I can use it for personal bits as well

[pauldolman]

small update

popped down to check on the rs earlier this week, , the old windscreen is out now which is still in one piece which will be going into my daily runaround and my new flash heated screen has arrived, looks totally awesome, the windscreen channel on the whole is in very good condition, think I was expecting the worse but was plesently surprised, the spare wiper arm hole will be cut out and a new piece fabricated and smoothed, hopfully won't be much longer before it arrives back home again

[pauldolman]

right heated screen is here now, looks the nuts, small bit of rot in both bottom corners of the scuttle but concidering the age it's not that bad I think I was expecting a lot worse, I've somehow come across on ebay a heated windscreen loom from a fiesta rs1800, with relays, switches looks in really good nik too, I've never seen these advertised before so I think I was very lucky to come across it, I've been down to the painters today and all the rot has been cut out, new metal lip fabricated and wiper hole has been cut out and smoothed off, I really like this mod, makes it look quite standard, I guess that the mark of a great fabricator

[FRSJON]

looking good paul

[pauldolman]

looking good paul

cheers matey, long time, really can't wait to get it back now, the fabrication skills of my painter is amazing, it looks like it was always ment to be that way, but it should be back this week at some point then I need to work out how the screen connects up, having the proper loom should really help just not sure where abouts it all plugs in yet

[Fraggle]

Looking sweet fella...can i ask where u got the windscreen from?

[pauldolman]

Looking sweet fella...can i ask where u got the windscreen from?

Cheers pal, the screen is brand new and my painter got it through his mobile screen fitter that he uses, if you want the screen company details at any point let me know and I'll pm them to you

[rsturbonutter]

Best way to get a new screen and the insurance job it will only cost you £25 you will be paying £200 or thereabouts if you source one yourself

[pauldolman]

only if you had a heated screen in there before, I had a screen replaced through the insurance by autoglass and they wouldn't put a heated screen in there, just like for like

[pauldolman]

[FRSJON]

i do hope your cars rust free now paul as its had more body work than jordan
