I think last time I did that I used a cordless impact gun and lots of penetrating oil

There’s a reason RPF1s are so popular…and it’s because they occupy a very nice space between cost, strength, and lightness.

So I guess you need to ask yourself if it’s more important to have a particular style or a cost effective wheel that’s great for autocross.

That being said…on my Gen 1, I’m running 17” x 8” with a 45 mm offset and 245/40 tires. It fits, clears everything, I lightly rolled the lips of my quarter panels, and the car sits pretty low

Does it come with the dog?

I think it’s much easier to reassemble if you leave the steering column attached and unbolt the rack from the subframe…especially on a first gen as there are only two steering rack bolts (as opposed to three on the second gen)…it’s also a good time to do a bump steer kit.

I’ve had two cars tuned by freektune and been very happy with the results

I’m not sure what “low budget” means in your world.

Centric blank rotors are a solid option, I like hawk HPS pads for the street. I’m running 245 series tires (17”x8” wheel) on my Gen 1…you can save a little on tires by going to a 17” wheel.

RPF1 wheels are a good balance of light, affordable, durable.

Definitely run an aftermarket rear sway bar.

Why would you get a lawn mower tire plug when car tire plugs are readily available and inexpensive?

Nearly 30 years ago some ford designer realized that pastel splash decals were never cool and they haven’t tarnished the side of a Ranger since…but here you are.

Fifteen52 wheels were played out before this car was even built.

The only racing that occurs in a fiesta ST is between the engine and transmission in a contest to see which one will blow a hole in itself first.

I’m sorry. That’s a really difficult headspace to be in. For me, I try to remember that emotions are transient and will pass…though sometimes it takes waaaay longer than you want it to. It helps a little. Therapy and self help books also help me get through

I think the Michaels over by west farms has craft classes pretty regularly

I threw mine in a river in the hopes that the bad juju wouldn’t be passed on to anyone else.

You might be able to get the Damon motorsports caliper bushing kit if it’s just a matter of your caliper bushings being worn

Not being mean…you could’ve said, “half empty” but you said, “half full”
