Not a mustang, but fun in the twisties
 
Picked this up a few nights ago. I know it probably will never have the hp output I could get out of a stang, but man it is fun in the twisties. It came with the Steeda body kit, Eibach springs, Cai, and exhaust work done. I picked up the parts yesterday for an SVT brake conversion and have a triax shifter on the way. The suspension still needs some attention as it seems to bottom out to easy for my taste, but I think that is just some of the stock bushings showing their age. After that and some wheels, the plan is to add a little :turbo: I can see now why you guys like the svt foci, these things are like little go carts :jester:

There is a SVT Focus in Leeds that I looked at. I ended up getting a ZX3 and I HATE it. Hope you have better luck with your Focus than me.

I like the color and body kit on yours. its not over done.:nice:

+1. I enjoyed that aspect of our old SVTF as well. And the brakes, OMG that thing would stop on a dime and give change!!

I looked at a Focus RS that was in a parking lot up the road from the hotel I was staying in while in the UK this last trip. I would love to drive one of those!

Nice ride. :nice: Doesn't look half-bad either! Nice & low, but it needs wheels!

Thanks for the compliments guys, once I get the suspension the way I want it and some wheels, it will be on its way to a bit more power.
