Who here owns a Fiesta ST?

Had the car detailed on Saturday, very pleased on how it turned out

shauncr91 · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:09

Looks great, but it's so high

killer_uk · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:10

Haha, I've been looking into the Eibach extra lows

We will see

shauncr91 · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:12

Mine is on Eibach's, they are spot on. For ~£150 it's gotta be the best mod available

killer_uk · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:13

I was put off a little as RJK said he drove one and it didn't seem very settled, the guy who's it was had apparently had the tracking etc done as well. But everyone who's had them fitted have said how good they are, so I'm guessing something must have been wrong with his set up?

shauncr91 · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:15

Sounds like the guys car had something up with it, I've taken some ridiculous liberty's with my car in the corners and it's the opposite of being unsettled.

Possibly it had coilovers on with some strange setup?

killer_uk · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:16

I haven't really read a lot into it - yet

, standard shocks hold up fine with them?

shauncr91 · 17 Sep 2012 at 21:18

The shocks are fine, there's people who've been running standard shocks with Eibach springs for years without issue.

Also Rybo is you read this, I got a quote of £140 to fit manifold and rear spacers, could you please ask your friend if he can beat it?

Oh dear, the credit card may be making an appearance very shortly.

Car looks really nice.

Can't really go wrong with Eibach springs, one of the best pound for pound mods out there tbh.

It's going to get confusing with both Will and Killer having mountune sigs! :eek:

I think i may be getting the itch for some H&Rs...Just not sure i can deal with the hassle of fitting the mod, insurance and then weird tracking issues. Then again though the MK7 looks gash lowered too much.

There is no adjustment on the rears except buying shims also...

Remember you'll probably be wanting these too if you lower it, the rear wheels sit really deep in the arches and look silly. I bought some from JamesM ages ago and still haven't got them on :mad:

Logsi · 18 Sep 2012 at 12:03

I'd be lazy, spend the extra and get hubcentrics! Hehe!

Shikkaka · 18 Sep 2012 at 12:23

Had mine a month now, came completely standard and I've done the following to it.

LED Side Lights
Smoked Side Repeaters
Mongoose Flexi Pipe
Front Grill ST Badge
Boot Lock Cover
Smooth Rear Wiper
Rear Window Tints
ST Car Mats
K&N Filter
Osram Night Breaker Headlight Bulbs
Wheels Refurbished
4 New Tyres
Leather Gear Gaiter

Here's a pic from the weekend after it was machine polished.

shauncr91 · 18 Sep 2012 at 12:30

Done that after a month? You don't mess about

Yarde · 18 Sep 2012 at 12:35

Need to get those plastics sprayed black asap son!

I've got to admit, it's a first for me. I just knew the look I wanted and put the money to one side to do it. It'll slow down now. Just a few more minor touches to be done.

That is one of things I am going to do very shortly.

Had my non-res Milltek catback and 4-1 manifold fitted yesterday. Will post some videos either later today or tomorrow.

shauncr91 · 24 Sep 2012 at 21:37

Sounds good

Hopefully have my 4-1 and decat this week, can't wait
