Hi and welcome to SN.

Your Focus - Supercharged, Turbo and NOS!
I think you should dump the ST170 brakes and put the Focus RS brakes on!

The supercharger was removed yesterday as having them both on there was causing the turbo a few problems, so it's just turboed with nitrous now

Still got 226bhp / 226 lbs/ft torque though, which I'm more than happy with for a 1.8 Focus

The ST brakes do OK, and the rear ones are the same on the ST and RS anyway

Hi Ruth!

I don't have a Scoob either and I've hanging round here, kicking Scooby **** for years! Yes you have seen me post on FFOC btw!

Oh and the ST and RS rear brakes are different

I've seen you about Ruth! (don't be too worried, parents live in Poynton!)

Never tried any traffic light grand prix's with you though after I saw your car in a Ford mag or somewhere. And there was me thinking it was all show and no go! Particularly liked the third brake light that actually says Focus when lit up! That was your car wasn't it?

You should come to a SMACS drive out some time. Check out the Northern section.




And by the way, Scoobygav555 is a liar. He's hugely overweight and cr4p at golf.

BOB.T - Hanging around for years by the looks of it?? LOL over 11K posts, you look like you've been here from the beginning!!!

Mad Scientist - Yes that's me I've got another brake light cover that says "beaver" when you brake but that's another story and for obvious reasons I don't have it on the car

um.......A lot

I've changed a few things like the bumpers, suspensions and bonnet 3-4 times, so some of it has been me changing my mind, but most of the money has been obviously spent on the engine

I know I could have started out by buying a faster car with the amount I've spent, but where's the fun in that. It's fast for a Focus....but I wouldn't even try and take on any of your lot

I need to start charging Gav, everyone I know thinks a four pack will buy anything! ( I don't really mind!)....................

I rebuilt a Cossie engine last year......................but I got a four pack AND several chicken and mushroom pot noodles! Bargain!

I'll give you a wave next time I see the Focus Ruth................you'd best wave back.................and you'd best tell you're fella too so if he's driving he doesn't think that i'm a weirdo!

OK - so if any Scooby driver waves at me I shall wave back cos I have no idea what you look like or what colour/model Scooby you have

If you see a black STi with ARK on the plate wave to her cos that's my sister-in-law - she's following me down to PE tomorrow, I'll be in a red Skoda Fabia in front of her (don't ask!!!)
