bump since i added pictures.

No rust on quarters as it was recently derusted and the quarter panels resprayed so a low amount of stone chips. Front bumper is in fair condition and so is bonnet apart from one small 5p piece chip on the very front near the grill. Will get some pics up asap tomorrow. Last advisory was the...

Frp 236 for sale. 78000 miles Non-runner as reflected in the price. Have not got this diagnosed as im looking at getting a smaller car asap due to long travel anyway. Leading up to the event which caused the engine failure low oil pressure may have caused a VCT issue so a new engine will more...

Its on all/most of the frp's i have it too. Tbh i dont get it going backwards so i wonder if the breaks were mounted the wrong way.

Me dude i work there on the nightshift lol!

Really? Wouldnt the 1.4 struggle since the final ratio is too wide?

its all about "diameter" you cant change the profile of tyre unless you want your speedometer to be out so if you wanted larger profile tyres you would need to go 16's. or get alloy protector tyres but i dont know if any tyre in the FRP profile has a alloy protector ridge. I know my Yoko Spec 2...

not that i know of! should have been given to you upon collection or in with all the paperwork in the ford zip pouch (if you got one). I keep mine in the car in the pocket to the right of the steering wheel though.

lol Warren how much for a full set? knife, fork, cup, spoon, :lol:

had it on my 1.7 when i lowered it. on hard cornering the wheel made contact with the liner.

Yes No No but dampers can benefit the handling with lowering springs. Sometimes lowering can cause the wheel to make contact with the wheel arch liner, but someone has had there car lowered by 40mm with no adverse effects. Sidenote: just on the off chance make sure your insurance company...

Do you mean the suspension (damper/springs) or the entire strut assembly?

I know the FRP is tuned but i ran on morrisons/esso fuel (because i had no choice) till today when i put Shell Optimax back in and you can definitly tell the difference its smoother across the rev range. Not saying its major but its responsiveness is by far better with high(er) Octane fuels...
