The car looks great, except for that horrible cannon! Get it off, get it off!
By the way... I noticed the sticker on the rear window... Kako ide zemljače!?

I've seen you round Brighton a few times (you always seem to be either in front or behind a police car when turning onto Bay Street! : ) And you may have seen me in Rockdale, as when I visit my grandma your car is parked in the same block of units as her.
As suggested clear indicators and white (or Euro) numberplates will give it a nice touch.

Charade Turbo engine in a Fiori? That's hilarious... I'd want to see that in action.. lol. Seriosuly though... the car looks awesome until you see that cannon. Plus they make it sound like a moving fart. Personally, I reckon something like that would look tops. The rest of the car looks great, those wheels are really cool!

well, i got the dumpy cannon, coz i love rotors and they all have dumpy's and for some reason, my canon doesnt sound like a farter, it sounds really nice, umm dyno results are somewhere in my boxes, (moved house's) so ill get to that maybe tomorrow, to tell you the truth i dont know what chip but its gave it some more power and its sucking petrol like no tomorrow, my mrs brother does all that crap so he chipped it for me, i think somthing to do with a restricter and air intake or something ? im not all that with ecu's lol but rest of it is ok, well the charade turbo engine will fit in, but were chopping off the front end tomorrow and putting a rx3 type cone front on it to accomodate room for the turbo, the rest pretty much lines up, with custom drive shafts and custom engine mounts, only thing were really worried about is twisting the chassis so a roll cage is going in, because those cars are really weak and ive bent a other fiori with a stock engine :S, but yer anyways that my life story's .....

In talking about exhausts, you can always consider something quality like a Remus set up. I am looking into changing my exhaust on my XR4 shortly & a quality set up is the only way to go. |

I like the look of it, perhaps the rims and lowering are a tad much. I don't see what's wrong with the exhaust? It looks like mine and it looks good.

Driving down Grand Parade towards Brighton the other night, I see a Black XR4 in front of me so I go right behind them to see if I can get a reaction. No reaction, so instead we held up the traffic with our mini-Fiesta cruise, when all of a sudden I hear someone with an exhaust overtake us in the left lane. I figured it was probably someone in their Commodore/Falcon that got fed up with seeing these little cars. I never expected another Fiesta to go past. Who did it turn out to be?! Mecka, of course!
Cunny funt :hihi:.

I think the car looks great how it is, even the "cannon". I need something for the city commute and I think this thread has made a fiesta top of the list.
Can you provide a little more detail. What brand/height springs? Where did you get the rims? Any idea how many L/100K you getting out of it? Can't be as bad as the 32L/100K I'm getting from my XR6T at the moment. |

Springs.. you'd wanna get Eibach Pro-Kit springs. They're available from www.european-parts.net for about AU$280 (incl. shipping). Install would be about $150.
They lower the car by about 30mm and improve the already superior handling of the Fiesta. |

The fiesta would probably be looking at around 7-9L/100k's depending on your driving style and where/when you drive. I've got a focus and very rarely get out on the freeway, conservatively drive most of the time, but give it a squirt pretty often, and I'm getting around 8-9L/100ks Regan

well, my springs are custom made, 4 inchs lower at the rear and 2inchs lower at the front, altho im installing airbags this week so they will be gone, i got them at a really special price because my mate works there $250, originally it would be $450 - $500, i was apparently the first to get custom springs for a fiesta in sydney so it was a big headache to get the spec's and all that but yeah, wheels are diablos 18", got them from Tempe Tyres, again special price, but originally they are $2200 with rubber, well i dont get good fuel consumption, because every gear is redlined, altho when i drive normal, 15 litres gives me about 230kms and when im a complete idiot about 110kms avg, PLEASE DO NOT START THIS INTO A IDIOT FOR THAT THREAD, but im comparing the consumption, i know its stupid, ive hear it every day (dad mum) but i'm 196cm tall and 110kgs so ive got a heavy foot :P, if you have anymore questions please ask, ohh and tomorrow ill post up some update pics with some more work done to it.
