Nice cars on here guys, hopefully one day we will try & have a day where we can get as many of us together for a cruise or something.

Anyways heres a few pics of my 06 Focus Zetec & some of the things ive done with it. (Click on them to make them bigger)

The only mods ive done is the stripes & spoiler from the Australian Rally Championship Focus which I use for track days. Ive tried to keep it stock because its my everyday car & I bought a relatively new car so I didnt have to do anythging to it lol.

when I first got it



You might recognise this one Veloceraptor - At the last Small Ford Sunday



Last car around Oran Park (snuck a cheeky last lap in after a track day, when they were putting concrete blocks on the track prior demolition)



Bathurst Cruise with the XR5 guys





The wing in action at the Marulan Driver Training Centre

Yeah, you know that one on the left looks kinda familiar. Great pic of the 2 together. Are you gonna have the ARC spoiler on for SFS this year?

Cheers! It was a very looooong weekend but so worth it. Sun came out for the first time today since it was completed and the prizmatique was working its magic... I was doing a re-enactment of the Amourall ad walking to my office!

Fingers crossed I can keep it looking this nice now, its already showing signs of filth. I have the XR5 Foggies going in on Saturday, as well as a candy blue (as close to the 'Ford blue' as I can) through the interior with the silver stripes plus the calipers... will post more when done!

Crispy, your 5 is drool worthy.
Question, do all coolers sit 'off centre' on LS/T? Freman on XR5OC has a DSCi I/C and it sits off centre aswell?
Once again mate looks fantastic really shows the depth in the PB

Ha ha, thanks mate. Its easy to keep clean when I only drive it on the weekends but I have been known to break out the cotton buds to clean hard to reach spots

So under your car would look like this too then?


Goes pretty good, want to get it dynoed to see exactly what its running. Spins up the semi slicks in third in the dry

And DJ, I think it depends on which type of intercooler it is. This one is quite high and not so wide and the Airtech is quite long and not as high.

Couple more newer pics:




And this is what she looked like a couple of months ago:

I realized I've never added shots of my car in this thread. These are about 2 years old, and I plan new ones in January, but here's a sample

















Brakes have been added since.
I'll get shots done in January once I've cleaned it up for Small Ford Sunday.........and hopefully I'll get there this year! (engine shat itself last year so couldn't get the car there)

Very nice bb. I like the different look of the seats, a bit more interesting than the usual black/grey.

Any plans for the future?
