*NEW MOD*

Got hold of a drivers side OMP 4 point harness today to see if i like em. Fitted it and..............its good and bad

Goind points
Feel safe
Strapped down tight
Looks ace
CAN drive harder and remain in FULL control (see below)

Bad points
Struggle to reach stereo
Struggle to view offside blind spot
Got a bad back within minutes from sitting so upright (i know my clubmans made me sit upright but in them i could slouch,with harnesses on i cant)(and my seat is always vertical as i like being sat up)

Took it for a test drive and it was a much more involved drive than usual,mainly cos the movements of the car didnt make me move so i always had all the controls perfectly in my hands, thru it 180 round a roundabout and was amazed at the forces i could feel trying to pull me out the seat but not moving

Fitting time-40 minutes (had to unbolt seat and lift inside edge to get at left lapstrap bolting point)

Will i be purchasing them? for the right price yes

Dis dem

Got some COBRA harnesss pads on em aswell (these(harnesses and pads) are brand new,never been fitted and one is still in the box)

You pussy!

I love harnesses since I naturally sit up straight and they are pointless unless your strapped in TIGHT. I can see why some people dont like them.

Maybe its time to buy a stereo with a remote control tease

See the previous page where i stated the reason for it

de-blanded the windcreen
Rally theme
Helps get sun out of eyes (more than visors)

In birkenhead from friday night - sunday night so will try to pop down the rock on saturday and see whos out

"1.8 zetec running 115bhp standard and if i upgrade the cams, ecu, throttle body, fule rail, map daf to all 2l i could push 140 bhp"

Babybird,im not sure where u got that info but i REALLY DONT recommend using 2L sensors and fuelling parts on a 1.8

Correct 130 spec is using 130 SPEC management

Another way of getting NEAR 130BHP (and more reliably than the 130 engines,which had poor heads) is to get the 2.0 TB,2.0 cams (which are a VERY SIMILAR profile to 130 spec but not exactly the same) and chipping the ECU (unichip or collins Pchip)

Ill be getting a 2.0TB soon (i bought one from Ebay and its fitted but it looks IDENTICAL to the standard one so i think its a 1.8 one) and i may or may not get cams.

Every day i think so many different things about my car,and ATM here are my choices

Go balls out and turn it into a track capable road car(as below but also use it as main transport)
Mod a bit more (skirts,bib,tidy paint)
Run for years to spend money elsewhere (house etc)
Get rid and get the BM ASAP
Save for a BM,get the BM then garage the scort and slowly turn it into a full track toy (stripped,buckets,2.0 engine(maybe even ZT)full rally graphics job)

Oh,and CLJ,half smoked dont look good on white cars,standard look better than half smokes and lexus's on white cars but watch this space,the lexus's are getting customised,dazza will know what theyre gonna look like (white where urs where black,and chrome where theyre all chrome-inside bulb areas)

£120 later and he has a purry exhaust. Got the one from my old car adapted to fit and it cost me over 120 quid!!!!! Well pleased with the noise but cant believe a tiny bit of adaptation cost that much money.Done in a shade over 3 hrs. Sounds incredible,but TBH i think ill add a silencer in the middle to reduce the sound by a few Db just for comfort. It purrs like a kitten with booms coming down the revs and a tiny bit of rasp at full throttle.And i now CANT hear my induction noise at all lol.Engine feels smoother and throttle response seems better and kangarooing seems less

Pics later
