Re: My Fiesta st (new wheels fitted 18/3/2009)
the to do list for the st
spray the plastics black
get fading black to silver st side stripe's
fit facelift de-tangoed headlights
carbon mirror covers
get eibach 35mm lowereing spring might just get coilovers depending if i can find a cheap set
drilled and grooved discs i did have some focus rs calipers and fitting brackets up till last week but i think 325mm discs and 4 pots would been over kill on my standard st
k&n induction kit
denso iridium plugs and and magnecor leads iv been told they make it run beter as st's run a bit lumpy when cold and on idle
full exhaust system with be de-cat and 4-1 manifold im still deciding which make to go for
dreamscience

Re: My Fiesta st (k&n 57i induction kit fitted 5/4/2009)
I got an k&n induction kit yesterday and just fitted it this morning its well worth doing on the st the airbox is very restrictive and sits on top of the engine so it gets so hot .

Re: My Fiesta st (need help what colour 7th march)
i think i might go for the satin black cos if i use that i will keep the textured look of the plastics.

fiestakingfisher :Whats the K&N like? Am considering getting one for mine.
The k&n is great gives a nice sound and frees up a few extra bhp as the stock airbox is very restrictive and you get alot of heat soak from the engine.

sounds good im not that keen on the pink them but im sure once it done it will look good.
xr2irhys :standard wheels looked better
Im thinking about puting gloss black standard wheels back on it and lowering it 45mm.
