Not posted on here in a wee while but still to pop on almost daily to keep up to date with the goings on and project thread area. Thought I'd stick a wee thread together of our new purchase. My previous project threads can be found here...

That is a very nice example you have there. Look after her.

So progress on the 200 has been slower than I'd hoped it would be. In the end I didn't manage to get any trackdays done in her this year. Shortly after our road trip I had some Michelin Pilot Cup 2s fitted in prep for some track action but it didn't happen. Over the last couple of months the...

I've done Knockhill both ways, Silverstone National and Bedford (How Fast layout). Knockhill is fantastic both ways, Silverstone is pants and absolutely loved Bedford. You can hammer the car and drive it to its limits and not have to worry about crashing into the scenery.

Didn't see the last few posts. The pic was taken here (Google maps link): https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@58.1774783,-5.2814388,3a,75y,274.33h,62.65t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sXyMTV-LUvXOWDysK2HjCOQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

Simo Simo Simo :coldsweat: I didn't think you'd ever sell this beast. My favourite 197 for sure.

I joined the Akrapovic club with the new bike last week. Bike is a Yamaha MT-09 with the Akrapovic carbon system. Sounds amazing.

That looks out of this world amazing. Awesome colour combo.

Awesome. You should have given me a shout and I would have joined you for 1 of the days. Couldnt have asked for better weather.

Surely the filter covering the ITBs is gonna get properly minging/soaking when it rains (Which it tends to do here lol)? Awesome project none-the-less.

Anyone know which relay is utilised for the lights and where I'd find it? I changed bulbs to OEM ones but problem still exists.

As above. Have the stock in the off position but dipped beam bulbs remain on. All the functions work on the stock but the dipped beam bulbs remain illuminated when off and side lights only are selected. In order to stop the battery going flay I've unplugged each bulb. This also means my other...

Where did you get it dyno'd?

I done it (Removed the resonator) and had to go back to the resonator equipped centre section after 2 weeks. On track it sounded properly awesome however it created a massive flatspot and the day to day drone was horrendous.

We missed the original AG 200 not long after getting shot of it. After about 2 years of ST ownership we started seriously looking at what was out there to buy. The good ones didn't stay up for sale for long so missed out on a few but jumped at this one when we seen it advertised. Love it.

Not sure tbh. They are about the same height as the H&R springs the car came with. I do like not having to worry about speed bumps. Its nicely low but not too much.

Not quite liquid yellow but hey:

I considered one as a replacement for the ST as they look and drive really well, just very expensive. Not an out and out hot hatch (More of a warm hatch) but a really good first effort by Kia to do one.

Is that your inner wheel arch liner sitting on your wheel in pic 5?

Standard vs standard when "pushing it" they are very similar. Rolling mid revs and then planting it will see the Fiesta walk away. A MP215 equipped ST vs standard 197/200 will pull a few cars lengths.
