What did you do to your Fiesta ST today ?

[chicagoslick]

Weekend was busy. I installed:

1.
Cobb RMM
Cobb Air Filter
Cobb Stage 1 93 Tune
I did not expext to feel much difference, but was I wrong. This probably should have been the base setup as it makes first gear much easier for take off. Planning on moving to Stage 2/3 in the next few weeks. I would like to get 5k miles on the car before I move to the next stages.

2.
Installed the No Pistons evap can cover, battery bracket and dead pedal. This is a very nice stuff that was fairly easy to install. Again, I think these were items that should have come from the factory.

3.
Installed Redline Gear Shift Boot and Arm Rest Cover. Very nice pieces. I wish I would have not over thought the thread color. I asked for Molten Orange thread and of course it does not quite match the factory Molten Orange Recaro's. Would have been better off with the standard red color. Oh well, they still look really nice. Yet another item that should have already come on the car.

Note:
I know there is a cost to these things and that would have drove the price up a little bit, but this is probably the highest priced version of this car anyway and I'm sure most would have spent the extra few bucks.


Finished the installation of the JL Audio Sub and Amp. What a huge difference in sound quality. This actually makes the factory system tolerable.


Hope everyone had a great weekend...

Applied blue Lamin X just because...

I too have the blue lamin X , wanted to be a little different...seems everyone else has yellow, so good on ya

Do they make CLEAR Lamin X??

IF I put this stuff on my fogs, I don't want even 1/10th of a percent of the (already weak, even with aftermarket bulbs) light output to be diminished.

This card came with my order. Not sure if all the colors are available for the FiST.

I got the same card with my order, however I purchased mine form fswerks, and they (at the time) only offered yellow, blue, and I think the tint versions, but the lamin-x website does offer all colors (confirmed)

I will take some pictures later today and post.

Soon I will be adding the VXMotor Rear Wing Spoiler Kit and the 3rd Brake Light Update (received it yesterday; thanks to Matt Vinson)

nice! not sure if its my pc though, but only the last set of photos is showing up! how did you connect your rca and accessory wires for your amp?

 

[ridinVINTAGE]

Installed my Bilstein B14 coilovers today, couple issues I have to fix. Passenger rear is squeaking, ABS wires are way too close to the wheel for my comfort, and a slight rub on the plastic fender liner. I will probably just raise the front a turn or two.

Also ordered a set of these.

Put on my new 16" Konig Controls with 215x45 Azenis RT615K+ tires.

The Audio Control has a 12 volt out that feeds the REM in on the JL amp. The RCA is sub out from LC2i to sub in on JL amp. Pretty easy hook up once you get all of the wiring to the rear of the car. I can create a drawing if needed for hookup or take closeups...

Just got done with a quick wash for Cars & Coffee in the morning. I know not the best way to care for my paint, but you work with what you got.
