@carmad. doesn’t really bother me!@althebass you could stick a mini or viva heater in it with not much work
Thanks!This is incredible! Passed this today in Bangor/Ballyholme I think? I was rubbernecking in my 2017 Focus! Haha
Was loving the look of it! Great to see it being a daily
The greasing and topping up the steering box sorted out the notchy steering.
The box takes 250w tractor type oil (which is the equivalent of the old 600w recommended in the manual.)
The gearbox and rear axle take this too.
Interestingly, the heavy weight of the oil in the gearbox helps with up shifts as it slows down the gears more quickly to match the input speed. I’m finding that I can actually change up faster when it’s cold then when the car warms up I have to give a bit more time on up shifts for the gears to slow to meshing speed.
There’s definitely a deep breath turning into some corners!i am sure 45/50 mph feels like it’s flyin
Changing up I haven’t found the need to double clutch, just timing it right for a smooth change.Are you fully double de-clutching or are you trying to rev-match the gears?
My dad lives just round the corner from your work and one of you might have machined some little bits for one of my 7s a couple of years ago. That's a nice picture with Basil's 7 as well, last saw it a year ago when we were still allowed to go racing
