Don't want to sound dramatic but they've changed the car mate can't describe to you how much more planted it is! They are brilliant I was saying to my mate if could do it all again I'd of not bothered with cams etc and just bought hubs and ast's and a diff and it would of been so much faster...
Yeah the puma is well fast mate, mind you all the ford purists hate what he's done to a racing puma as its cut up and full cage etc from what I understand it's a 2.3 duratec lump that's high comp and wrc spec cams and other bits, doesn't hang about!
Focus is just pure brute force a bit...
The puma is 260ish bhp and the focus is 400bhp ish so on the track it was a very fun drive we've been driving together for years which is nice because I could sit on his bumper in places and vice Versa knowing where abouts to let off for space lol
Yeah luckily it went at the beginning of the...
So went to ford fair yesterday took the focus out on some cut slicks I managed to get hold of, was good fun as ever with public track time it was full of idiots that couldn't drive made for some interesting moments! Spent most of my sessions chasing my friend in his 2.3 itb'd racing puma that is...
I bet it does lol !
Yeah i mean it'll be a slow process but i fancy learning how an engine comes apart and hopefully go back together lol
Sounds good mate keep me posted!
Oh yes I keep telling the Mrs ' this is the last expensive bit for the car then it's near enough done ' I don't think she believes me any more lol
What engine spec is yours mate I'm going to need a rebuild soon as its using a hell of a lot of oil!
Can't believe the difference I can feel in clearways and paddock! Can only imagine what these are like when mated with ast's and a gripper and slicks.. Which is ultimately where i want to end up
Tried to hang on the back of him for a few laps but didn't go well for me lol
Oh really was after a gripper really but I mean I'm open for discussion lol
Another night at brands today with open track very busy but was great to throw the car around and a good few laps with some other Clio's and nice to see some cup racers out I think @BIGASH was there in the cup racer looked awesome! Will introduce my self next time didn't know who to say hi to...
So popped along to brands today to watch a track day as its only 2 minutes up the road for me and is free to get in, took the Clio for a drive with my mate who gave his r32gtr a run since coming back from having a new engine fitted and mapped.
Saw someone loading up a 3door cossy onto a...
So took the car out last night for a spin around the block since having @NorthloopCup hubs on it, drove really nice can feel the difference from standard already didn't really get to turn in hard or drive with any sort of anger because the car was scrubbing so bad, I have fitted a new bumper as...
😂😂 It's some proper old schools jack that was in the unit when we moved in, it's not a very heave duty one mind but it's handy with how high it can go lol
Yeah I love having the unit mate, makes such a nice difference from working outside in the elements
Went up to the unit with the best intentions to get in almost ready for alignment then this happened
Thought it hadn't sealed properly but when I pulled the shaft back out I found that it had broken completely, now I'm no mechanic so I'd like to know what I done wrong Not sure how it happened...
Yeah but it's not for sale I just wanted to see what it would be worth to sell and if it was good money I'd of made a proper add for it but I'm not gonna let it go unless it's top money if that makes sense lol
I still haven't ordered one of these yet! Been slacking lately
Ouch that's not good mate hope you get everything sorted! Does that mean you'll miss the next race ?
Hi mate, haven't got the gearbox oil just yet need to order it tomorrow on then picture there is engine oil and brake fluid. I can let you know if I find a price if you like from what I've seen its not cheap!
