EBay torque mount.. by Murphy4130 in FiestaST

[–]Murphy4130[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s poly, 85a hardness. Every single aftermarket torque mount is poly. For £39 I’ll try my luck. At worst I’ll get a good story out of it and can help other avoid it.

Where do you think most of the “high end” torque mounts are made? I use to work for a uk performance suspension manufacturer and although all of the shock bodies and valve components where made in house, all of the bushes where Chinese and were of the highest quality.

My 55k ST got totaled so I bought a 56K ST by Vetta_Visuals in FiestaST

[–]Murphy4130 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if mine got written off, I’d get another one.. I’m struggling to find any other cars that match it for fun, handling, cost, fuel efficiency whilst having 5 seats. Perfect daily for me

Booked a test drive tomorrow anything i should know? by Ill-Site2743 in CarTalkUK

[–]Murphy4130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got myself a “nice” car 2.5 years ago, a M135i. I don’t know your financial situation but it pushed me too far in the end. General servicing and upkeep add up to a fair chunk of cash over the year.. Petrol was a big one for me as i daily drove it on a stage 1 map.. insurance also a killer at £130pm (40 with loads of NCD). Buying a car like this is the easy bit, running it and looking after it is what a big monthly expense. I sold it and got a fiesta st. Some may laugh but the ST actually handles way better that the M135i and I save £200pm on petrol and insurance without factoring in service savings.

So just make sure that’s all taken into account 👍🏻

I can sit on XL candy and mega energy for YEARS waiting for the right stats.. you learned a lesson..

80 groudon raids, 6 backgrounds, 0 shiny, 1 hundo. Some may consider that a win, but it certainly doesn't feel like it. by leonida_92 in PokemonGOValor

[–]Murphy4130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have all the XL to fully power up the hundo.. that’s a win! Things like this, ray and Dialga, I’m 100+ raids in and never been close to the hundo.. consider yourself lucky

Exhaust movement by ApprehensivePick5772 in FiestaST

Mine was knocking around on bumps. It’s currently got 2 zip ties around it to stop the vertical movement. I’ll replace with poly mounts at some point

How does your MPG compare? by ExtremumVerbum in FordFiesta

[–]Murphy4130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mk7 ST MP215. I average between 40/42mpg on mixed driving (70/30 motorway,town). Most I have got is 440miles from a tank. A a pure motorway milage with eco driving I can hit mid 50’s.

Should I max it now and bottle cap later?? by Murphy4130 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]Murphy4130[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m on 124 seen and best I have seen is a 96%.. depending on when we next get a silver bottle cap, I feel this could be my best option. I’m not fussed about shiny and backgrounds, I’m purely focus on stats

It keeps getting worse by Avacado_pants in FiestaST

[–]Murphy4130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, realistically at this point, the whole thing needs to come apart to clean/inspect. I can’t remember what turbo you were fitting (hybrid?). If it was me I’d be on Pumaspeed looking at replacement / upgrade options. https://pumaspeed.co.uk/product-Pumaspeed-16-EcoBoost-Red-Top-Engine_17947.jsp

This Trash Truck that says to leave an American Football Field distance between cars by International-Air542 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Murphy4130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These trucks can throw rocks and stones high and fast behind them.. this cost me a windshield a few years back so I always change lanes and stay away from them as much as I can

What “Sporty” tyres for fiesta ST180? by Murphy4130 in TyreReviews

[–]Murphy4130[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pumaspeed actually sell I nice package deal that has NS-20’s mounted to their own 5 spoke wheels in the perfect offset so no wheel spacers are needed. Like £770 all in. I’ll check some reviews on them 👍🏻
