Been a while since I have posted any pictures of the Focus, and it's changed considerably since when I bought it, so here it is, with a small video as well.

Blue Flame Ford Focus, 5 speed manual, 5 door hatch

The car has a 1.8L Zetec engine, only mods to the engine are the K+N and a 2 inch tuned exhaust system, the extractors and high flow cat are being sorted out at the moment. Much time was spent getting a deep authoritive tone without being tinny or raspy and freeing up some of that low end power.

Other modifications include 17 inch optional alloy wheels, running Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres, a hybrid Ford and Infocus Motorsport bodykit (Ford sides, rear, roof spoiler, Infocus custom front bar), RS clear side indicators, lowered suspension (needs to be re-lowered to go lower again though, those who have seen it previously may remember the cross country ride height it used to have), Ultra Jet Black Tail Lights, a brushed aluminium shortened gearknob, and most of the badges are removed, except the Ford and Focus badge. And of course, my Euro Ford number plates! [cool]

It's only 3.9Mb, I'm on dialup and it didnt take me that long to download, and its not just me revving it in the garage either. [:p]

Let me know what you think!

Tim!
 
wow looking really good! That is one spectacular color also. It really does sound rumbly as opposed to raspy and honda'ish.
Any other plans? If you do, keep exterior the same and focus more on engine and suspension. But overall it looks and sounds great!
 
very clean[thumb]

i like it all except for the taillights but to each his/her own[:)]
 
Don't get mad, but it kinda sounded like it farted at first.[???:)] It looks really good though!
 
^^^ Just messin with you, it sounds good.

Hell I love the taillights, which exact ones are they so I can pick up a set. Anyway, not too bad sounding. Did you hit your rev limiter when filming that? Sounded like it twice but it's hard to tell. Great looking car [thumb]

*Hey man any chance you can post a pic of the tails or perhaps e-mail me one? Thanks!
 
That vid was worth the wait (I'm on dial-up also) and your car is looking fabulous!

Haha @ driving on the wrong side of the road, hadn't thought about that until you pointed it out.

Thanks for the comments, appreciate them, the car is good for what I ask of it (not alot! Heh).

LastRites - the tail lights are called Ultra Jet Black units, I got them thru an Australian company called Infocus Motorsport but they imported them, but no idea where they import them from, sorry?

Thanks for those who downloaded the video!

Heh thanks for the comments, all taken on board!

Just a few newer shots from our eurofordclub end of year meet:

Things still to come is getting the car re-lowered another inch or so, I am pretty disappointed with how low the car sits after lowering, so I'll have to get that re-done. Otherwise, a dark window tint is also on that list!

Tim!
