     I am a 64 year old retired shop teacher. I have had numerous summer and part-time jobs including auto mechanic, motorcyle mechanic, machinist and gunsmith. I was introduced to the car hobby at age 14 helping my father work on his cars. My main hobby now is going to Auto-X's and Track events to help other Focus owners and take pictures and videos for them. My other hobbies include Amateur Radio, computers and target shooting. My Car: 2001 Street Edition Focus Sedan I was not looking to buy a new vehicle when I got the Focus. I was killing time at the local Ford dealership while my truck was being serviced when a salesman offered a test drive in a Street Edition Focus. I liked the car so much that I sold the truck and bought the Focus. Since the truck was an award winning show truck I decided to go the performance route with the Focus. Therefore interior and exterior modifications are minimal. Interior: Door Lock button light mod Exterior: Bullitt Mustang Gas Door Black Powdercoated Stock Wheels Redline Tuning Hood struts Fog Light mod Suspension: SVT Suspension SVT Brake Conversion Torsen LSD Eibach Rear Sway Bar Engine: Powerworks Supercharger Fidanza Cam Gears Ford Racing Stage 2 Cams FocusSport Street Header Random Technology Catalytic Converter Focus Central Flexpipe FocusSport Stealth Cat-Back Exhaust Screamin Demon Coil Ford Contour Sparkplug Wires Z-Engineering Rear Motor Mount |

Right away I upgraded lighting in headlights and fogs (the first week) to Osram Silverstars, installed the European tail lamps, and relocated the reverse lamp to behind the lower bumper grill. I had the car tinted with the same Huper Optik film I had such good luck with on my ZX3. At first I ran the Team Dynamics M/sport wheels for awhile but upgraded to the ASA AR1's on Pirelli Pzero Nero's (I still use the Team Dynamics wheels with Pirelli Corsas occasionally). I did the front brake conversion to the Baer Track kit (330mm rotors) and run the EBC red pads front and rear. The car has had an 'eventful' past and whilst the reliability has been poor, the good times have been noteworthy to say the least, so I have stuck with the car through thick and thin. After the engine was replaced as well as the clutch twice I decided the Phoenix climate warranted upgrading the cooling system so I changed out the stock radiator for the Flowdyne aluminum unit and I also added an aftermarket Mocal Oil Cooler. Other mods along the way include: K&N Aircharger (short ram intake), Borla Exhaust, ORP, Coil kit and wires, ground kit, HO Alternator, Optima Battery, Cibie driving lights X4 and Cibie rear fog lamp, covered factory fog lamps, headlamp covers, North Viking rear wing, painted carbon fiber hood, billet fuel door, Kenwood DDX 7017 DVD/CD player, Alpine amp and speakers, Valentine One, Uniden Beartracker and K40 Laser Diffuser, Momo Street Racer seats, Momo dead pedal, Momo Shift knob, Sabelt harnesses, and a full size spare on matching ASA wheel. This car mainly does club events, with the majority of it's time spent on mountain drives with either Dezert Focus or on occasion, other car clubs. It's been to Texas, Montana and SoCal (several times, including FOTB 2004) and it 'spectated' at the Prescott Forest Rally 2007. It has spent most of it's 80K+ miles as a daily driver and has recently earned the right to be reserved mostly for events and special occasions. |
