coming on nice mate.
maybe the bar is there on that boot flor to ensure the sprae wheel doesnt move around? maybe it clamps up against it, although i cant see the need for it as ford would just make different wheel trys like they did on the mk3, so if its not for that, i dunno

could be only thing i can think of stop it htting the floor. it wired because theres only a bolt to hold it on at one end, the other it just slots into a whole and is loose within the whole

[jayrs]

its not there to make anything stronger then thats for sure

[jonyb4]

Tbh they must have under rated them seen plenty of zs on rolling roads making 115hp standard in fast ford mag,

The 1.6 se is a hidden gem imo, I'd have one over the 1.7

[hb69]

Jony, your 1.8 is only 130 spec, wouldn't say it has "more power"

Cossie/ST brakes coupled with braided lines are good for track and emergency stopping

someone failed maths...

130spec= 130ps at factory, the Zetec s has 99-105ps depending which year it is, therefore it has less

Ive never seen a 130 spec zetec make 130, in standard form.

Im sure we could all enjoy quoting estimated bhp all day. I suspect yours and Tobys would turn out to be nearly the same bhp if they were rolling roaded.

[jonyb4]

only one way to find out sadly


or a drag race but thats not strictly scientific


but no, i disagree completely sorry

[Ratspeed]

Jony, just put the damn thing on a RR and end all this!

[jonyb4]

Jony, just put the damn thing on a RR and end all this!

tell me about it! im dieing to do that, might just get £35 and go to my local regardless,

[Minstral]

well i finally decided to wash the zs today. i washed my mums the other day and it just looked so bad next to it. hadnt washed it since i last detailed it and posted the pics up on here.
i only rinsed it and shapoo'd it the dry'd it. from were i detailed it last time the dirt came straight off and was left with an awesome finish again.
before all dirty


quick wash and rinse

then after using some dodo juise shampoo and drying, all clean!





also i picked up some fiesta st brakes the other day so hope to fit them at the weekend, and i picked up a new areil from the same bloke as mine was all cracked.
old one on the left

fitted


so should have another update soonish

[Smo]

[Minstral]

worked fine. is in Henry's bin though now if it hasnt been colected yet ask him to have as look

[Smo]

Yeah, if it hasn't gone, could do with that!

[hb69]

Yeah, if it hasn't gone, could do with that!

Only for smo ill go through my wheelie bin

[Smo]

Aww, thanks

Toby, do you know how much your rear springs lower it by? Like, are they meant to be -35mm, -40mm or something?

[fiend]

Looking good. Once you detail a car its so easy to keep it clean with a quick wash.

Which Dodo juice shampoo did you use?

[Dave G fsi]

Looking really nice again mate

[jonyb4]

come up well, usual with your washing you make it seem like an art

got your hands full there with it being black

[bakewell001]

Sort that front grill out, it let's the car down!

Otherwise I'll bring my paint round tomorrow and do it while you're not looking

[Minstral]

Aww, thanks

Toby, do you know how much your rear springs lower it by? Like, are they meant to be -35mm, -40mm or something?

got to about 40mm i think. i found out after some research that weitec sold a half coilover kit which is why i have the front but not rears.

cheers Dave n Jon, i was only gave it a quick once over but i was suprised it came up so well after the second wash

Steve i actually took the grille apart yesterday to check what i needed and if it could be saved without buying a rip off price on ebay as they go for so much. turns out i only need the back plastic and a new badge. ill order one soon

[fiend]

Awesome, I've never used that one. Was on my list as next to buy.

I have the Dodo Juice 'Sour Power' smells like apples.

Dirty and on a hill

[MK2 Jamie]

Toby looks like a homeless person whos stumbled across a fiesta with its window open and climbed in.

[Excursion]

I recommend it.

Dirty and on a hill

You look like a dogger. I bet you are real dirty.

[jonyb4]

comical, why was steve undoing the back wheel for?

happy with the upgrade?

[Minstral]

Berk

it is good james alloys will probably be up for sale the show wheels as im thinking of changing plans

good pics henry we will have to do the rear lines at some point

[bakewell001]

:lol: comical, why was steve undoing the back wheel for?

Toby has 4 braided brake lines so we were going to change the rears too, but then Tony changed his mind
