stevmo3691 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 nope, just seeing what drivel you all will spout btw, ST24 is a mk2, not a mk3. Don't own, nor will I ever own a mk3 This is all. Haha I admire Steve's courage/stupidity to still bother posting here.at least you admire one thing about me facelift rears on with new plate and flat wiper - much better http://i6.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00id001O58f.jpg been on ebay again :oops: bought a TDDi badge from a focus but brand new and brembo front discs and pads and I will be playing with the callipers.brakes have been juddering and I inspected and found that on both front brakes they were worn heavily on the inside face of the disc but outside face looks quite new so obviously sliders arent working on the callipers so when new brakes arrive I will be stripping down and cleaning sliders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevmo3691 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 About time I added some pics: before:http://i2.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00ip001O58f.jpgdidnt take a pic of the back of the disc but there really was nothing left. Had to replace the carrier on this side as the sliders were well and truly knackered this is what I got to fit:http://i3.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00io001O58f.jpg and this is the after result:http://i7.tagstat.com/image07/8/520f/00ir001O58f.jpg this is what I found behind the centre trim: http://i1.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00iq001O58f.jpgdid used to have phone thing but I have since pulled this all out I did find a neat place to put my volume control:http://i7.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00is001O58f.jpg driveway was a bit of a mess:http://i5.tagstat.com/image07/8/520f/00it001O58f.jpg and my parents love the fact that I have the whole drive to all my mondeos discreet:http://i6.tagstat.com/image07/8/520f/00iu001O58f.jpg and fuse holder:http://i0.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00iv001O58f.jpg I didnt want this to be obvious so cable goes under airbox just need to run the power cable all the way through - couldnt find my wire feeding tool so will do that tomorrow while I replace the shaft on the seat height adjuster on drivers seat. Seat height adjuster didnt work so I took the one off my old set but it was longer so now seat is too high. Just gotta hope I can get the gear wheels off the 2 shafts as thts wht was wrong with old one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevmo3691 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Looking good so far. Keep it up.thanks cant swap the shafts for the seat height motor over so going to have to live with it being a bit high - adjusted it as best I can and actually found a nice comfy position but will try and get th right length shaft off a ghia x seat. Anyway, pics of interior: http://i1.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00iy001O58f.jpgignore the junk, it is a working car - already done 1000 miles in the 2 weeks I had it http://i4.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00iz001O58f.jpg http://i1.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00iA001O58f.jpg I need to give the leather a good clean and condition as its been sat in the garage for about a year And I put a little badge on:http://i1.tagstat.com/image07/8/520f/00ix001O58f.jpg http://i3.tagstat.com/image08/8/520f/00iw001O58f.jpg since it is a TDDi thought I might aswell put the badge on. Ford never put one on the mk3 mondeo TDDi's, this is a genuine focus badge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevmo3691 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 workhorse / mods / why?Might as well enjoy what I am using. Some of the bits are free as I had them in the garage anyway like the seats, sub and amp. some bits are cheap and help performance and economy. more importantly economy. Doing a Decat as well. bought one for £60 and someone is buying my cat for £50 and removing silencers from the exhaust as rear silencer is rotting and will need doing for MOT and mid silencer has fair bit on it so just got to weld some pipe in. handy now I have a Mig Other than those bits only things i'm adding will be new bumpers as both are rather damaged (getting front for free just need to paint it), lowering as a friend who has one of these too (his being alot more modified with coilovers, polybushing, hybrid turbo, large FMIC, resonator bypass etc) is selling me his old shocks and springs for £40, leather door cards (same friends as he fitted ones from a titanium x) and a facelift GEM to give me features like lane change indicators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if someone feels the need to pursue someone, follow them, & riddicule them because they don't conform to their idea of "reason". Whether that reasoning is correct or not bears no grounds if the person does not wish to have it forced upon the with the consequences being having everything they say or show picked on. I honestly don't see anyone being "forced" to read these topics, I do sometimes see the topics literally being looked for and hunting down for the pure pleasure of trying to provoke. Unfortunately there are many forms of bullying.Sometimes it can be very embarrassing to watch. Edited March 16, 2012 by PeeWee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Maybe some people believe that telling someone they're being ridiculous online will benifit the person and maybe prevent them making such ridiculous statements in real life. On an internet forum do you seriously expect people to be all sweetness and light, and not comment on things that they have issue with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
