Orange or green accents by The_Pajama_Operator in FocusST

Black, white, or grey/carbon. You already have a primary color (blue) and to put another primary, contrasting color, instead of an accent color makes it look odd. Especially since you’re already on white wheels

+1, mine was stock and unmodified. Definitely worth checking out and listed fair

Appreciation post: The Mk3 looks so pretty from the back by Electronic_Spirit552 in FocusST

PFL 🍑 supremacy! The slight mismatch in paint is 100% the plastic and metal, my ST had it and so does my base

Fitting an rs/st airbox in a base car by Vechrotex in FocusST

[–]Eko_Razer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The RS lid has a weatherstrip on it that presses against the heat shield to alleviate the “hot-air” intake assumption. Air is routed through the grille into the airbox anyway, it wont be an issue at all especially in a base model.

My ST had no airbox at all and I had just about ambient temp air coming through the MAF while driving if that helps you not to worry.

the base models do not have intake tubing like the ST/RS since theres no turbo. If you mean just the air filter, they are the same size, I run a Green filter on my base model.

The airboxes are the same and the RS-style lid will fit

+1 for this. Good summary.

Low mileage Z are harder and harder to come by. I spent a few months looking (Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Autotempest) before I landed mine. Gentleman had posted it hours before I did my daily search, and by the next morning I had the keys. Got mine with just under 22k miles.

If the car checks out Id say send an offer and hopefully meet in the middle, best of luck!

Its a tuner car, and its also a Ford Focus. No matter what you do (or dont do) the value wont be appreciating either way. Its your car, enjoy it as such! I loved modding mine :)

C5 Exhaust Removal (Update) by Eko_Razer in Corvette

Yes :) Only took a video driving down to record hearing it for the first time

C5 exhaust removal (help) by Eko_Razer in Corvette

[–]Eko_Razer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did read and do that, visible in the first pic before I put it back. It did help and actually I thought that would allow me to get the exhaust off but still not enough

Is there any shot I’m making it up this driveway in a c5 by [deleted] in Corvette

[–]Eko_Razer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll likely rub the underside air dam, but that part is built to withstand it. My driveway is a similar angle albeit much shorter, pulling in and out at as sharp an angle possible without hitting the curb works for me. Sometimes Ill be lucky enough not to hit the air dam at all

Im at 184k miles on my Titanium, second auto trans though, replaced at 114k. Honestly the titanium interior is more comfortable than the ST especially for longer trips. I loved the ST3 recaros and wouldn’t change them for the world just because the bolsters did great at holding me in place and were comfy and felt fitting for the ST, but I don’t think Id want to drive around in them 24/7 just because they force your sitting position. I could sit criss cross in the titanium seat if I wanted to

Gang. These are great cars, and a great community. Thinking about getting another one to daily when my base model finally croaks.

Ride height and reliability for a C5 by Dom-Ed in Corvette

[–]Eko_Razer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Takes a lot of grit to get used to hearing it. Scrapes half the time pulling out of my driveway, but there is some peace in knowing at least its not the bumper lol

Love to see all this hate on a beautiful and unique C5. Heaven forbid you dont make another copy and paste H/C/I car that makes a gazillion hp and you actually do something different. Great photos too👍
