Good you got it replaced while the car was still driving, mine snapped when I went to pull away from the island near moons moat last month , busy Friday evening at 6pm as well 🤦🏻♂️ at least I wasnt doing 70+ mph on the motorway or something.
Bloody hell madness
I am about to do this on my vxr. Do you just yank the driveshaft a few times to get it out or do you need to do anything with the pinch bolt inside the gearbox before or as you pull on it
@@darrenmicklewright2008 pretty sure the vxr is easier
Glad you're all sorted mate, thanks for the mentions 🤜🤛
Thanks for the massive Help brother
That's some serious bad design?
@@Anekiii yup deffo designed on a Friday when the football was on lol
You never stop working mate
@@grimreapersmith haha I’ll try my best 🤣
Tiny drive shaft nut and tiny torque compared to a VXR. Surely that cant be right ?
@@davidhaygarth648 Ford mentality for ya haha
Told u it was easy mate lol, there is a fill hole at the top of the box so no need to play around with sockets at bottom
Why did no one tell me this 🤣🤣🤣
@@Yodaracing1 you did not ask lol
Be interesting to see how the driveshaft is as im looking for new ones
So far so good mate obvs not been on long but if it fails will let u all know but Collins performance sell them so they must be half decent
halfords sucks these days.. better for babyseats and airfreshners then car bits..
Hahaha agreed
Nice video👌🏾 there's a secondary place to refill through the reverse detent on top of the gearbox just in front of the battery
What !!! Ffs 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ 🤣🤣🤣
Nice quick fix, that’s what we like 😅 Where they aftermarket ones? Don’t think it would ever make sense buying oem ones, they are only boot struts at the end of the day, as long as they open the boot unaided that’s all you need, then save some pennys 💴 😁
Haha yea can’t beat a quick fix they were £30 from a local parts supplier so not all bad really
Gotta love opening v boot reaching in and it shuts itself ouch lol good install mate
Haha yea mate donked my head for the last time lol
@@Yodaracing1 lol, nearly knocked me out cold , heavy boots on v st's u do know wen v struts fail lol good vid Mate
Hmm, I was considering buying one. Does Ford still stand for.. fiddle or repair daily?
Fucked or repaired daily but they aren’t all bad
hello great noise 🤩 what brand is your intake kit??? It doesn't look hot??
@@guillaumemazel6011 I’m not sure on brand
Bonjour quel es la marque de votre kit admission svp ????et super le son ,top 🥰par contre sa prend de l'air chaud non???
@@guillaumemazel6011 je ne parle pas français désolé
Dont do it on Z20LET's . After this mod boost was only 1.1bar . Normally boosted 1.4
If you are going to Trax would be great to check out your build? mines a 310bhp Dreamscience with a bit of a franketstein build - RS downpipe, malian sports cat, mongoose cat back, dreamscience map, etc.
@@RykerFive5 sounds awesome mate
Make sure if you like the gear knob you call out Mtech on your channel, definitely worth the few quid they are going for :) Carry on the build mate, i've got to sell my ST and i'd love to keep it.
Didn’t even know it was a mtech gearknob it came with the car lol cheers mate and oh no why u selling
@@Yodaracing1 My ST is used to take my daughter to nursery and occassionally on weekends, its a shame but its not ideal for that sort of situation considering its capabilities. Plan is to get a Mondeo for the daily, and get an ST in the very near future for a project car. Currently at 310bhp it feels rapid - I just had a lad pick up the Mtech gearknob and a front grille from me, he has 420bhp and its an animal
@@RykerFive5 awesome mate but gotta do what u gotta do
Tidy install vid mate , love v comparison before and after that u do shows it works ,, yeah defo tell tale signs of a previous short shifter , but then most of these st's have been modded before at least once lol , look forward 2 ur nxt vid mate
Haha cheers mate appreciate your kind comments as always 🙌
@@Yodaracing1 love ur channel mate keep up v good work
@@Focus-st330 thank u mate means a lot
@@Yodaracing1 ur welcome mate u deserve it
When I had my st, I was made to understand that the turbosmart actuators are great but the recircs, were awful. Just hope you don't have any issues with it once fitted
Time will tell mate lol
@Yodaracing1 of course my guy. As always, if you need help then drop me a message 👍
@@mastersmods 1000000% will need your help lol
Defo considering one of them.Seen your last vid regarding bhp after mods what’s mods u got on it performance wise.Reason I’m asking is not sure where mine is at I’ve added a few mods but was mapped when I bought.
@@simonhafford1518 I’m running 3” turbo back exhaust induction kit front mount intercooler rs clutch rs plugs and imap mod x made 290 with a duff actuator once I got the new one on should see over 300 easily
Awesome 🙌
Cheers buddy
Like your videos there’s no bull**it
Cheers buddy I like to always be upfront and honest 👍🏻
See it this way... 3000 people watching your vids compared to how many st on uk roads. Yoyr doing well pal keep up the good work. Always look forward to a new vid and following the journey... im getting block mod and rs clutch tomorrow. Cant wait👌
@@brandonkhan3790 really appreciate that mate thank u makes it all worth it with comments like yours 🙌🙌 and awesome mate let me know how it goes 👍🏻
What’s that mate your bored now😉get another vxr
@@turbowarrior44ashg24 🤣🤣 no way don’t want another F machine lol
Are you still using the stock turbo inlet pipe?
@@VADER_225 nah mate
@Yodaracing1 what I found on mine was that the prohose TIP would collapse under boost.I had to fit a metal support inside it to stop that.Maybe worth a look also.
@@VADER_225 cheers buddy will have a look into that
I’ve had mine a month now. Not my first focus st but it’s far better than my previous. Absolutely love it. Just glad it’s not my daily because it doesn’t like to keep fuel in the tank too long. 🤣
Haha yea they are rather. Thirsty
Wow its been that long 😅
Haha I know right
Thinkinf of doing mine. Z20LET cause spark plug wells full of oil all 4 of rhem lol. Is it pretty straightforward bro?
If u have the tools etc yea
@@Yodaracing1 what do i need bud stem pliers?
I’ve hit 5.3 with 290bhp 3/4 throttle in 1st till hit 2nd at about 4500 n then full foot it man!!
Nicely done 🙌
Is the number plate legal like the look of it there
@@simonhafford1518 the plate is legal location probably not but not had a issue YET 🤣
@@Yodaracing1 😂😂😂
Is it a sticker type do u have a link
@@simonhafford1518 yea it is mate www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184538875095?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=sBjVDGmUQg-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=IHuabezXS_a&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
@@Yodaracing1 Gud stuff pal if it goes tits up I’m blaming you😂😂😜
A year already? Damn, time flies!
@@sweatybandit0 I know right
Had mine a year july which has flown. It was cheap so its cost me a few quid in bits and ive just had it resprayed due to bad laquer peel (performance blue) but now its back it was all worth it 👌
That’s awesome mate
Where does time go mate??? Flys wen ur having fun ,, like u said people only post v bad so v assumptions are there bad no different 2 any other car , they all empty our wallets lol a cracking vid , car sounds savage got 2 love v 5 pot sound
@@Focus-st330 cheers buddy 🙌🙌
Tell me is it normal when you start the car and it makes that whistle sound only on start up
If u have an induction kit yes.
Oh ok cool was just worried if it was my oil housing
@@tonygabriel7459 oil filter housing has a high pitched whistle constantly when idling
Good to know coz I bought the car like that and was always wondering , thank you for the help
Fair play Fixed & happy
Have you got a link to these? They look sick
@@ridwankhwaja1386 just search for eibach sport lines for the Astra vxr should be able to find some 👍🏻
Thanks mate! Do you know how much these springs lowered the car?
@@ridwankhwaja1386 I think it was around 35 on the front and 25 on the back
In Greece you have to pay 900+€ per year for 2.500cc cars. 690 for 2.000cc, an a45 amg for example. Not fair at all...
@@kadis_thodoris 😱😱😱 omg
What do you pay for? Insurance?
@@darek4488 I pay £39 a month
@@Yodaracing1 That question was to @kadis_thodoris
Great car and fantastic haircut 😅
🤣🤣 cheers mate
A year already! 😱 good to see it's behaving for you brother
@@mastersmods I know madness
Got mine last June diamond white love it just a weekender sound mint and still get people looking nobody looks at a golf r boring has foook.Ford st and rs mk2 love em.
@@simonhafford1518 100% mate they are great
Youre right about the liner thing, after i bought mine i joined the forums and saw everyone talk about , gave me the fear everytime i drove it then i realised its gone through 13 previous owners and 110k and hasnt cracked yet so doubt it will. They are pretty solid cars if maintained properly.
@@u04pww2 100% agree mate
Had mine about 7 years now! Toyed with the idea of getting something else for a change but just couldn't bring myself to let it go. It just has so much character and does everything i want it to do so why would i? And has been really reliable too! Have suffered some of the common faults recently though but everything needs maintenance. Just bloody love the thing
Yea they are hard to replace
Great cars. Had mine 2 years now, just puts a smile on my face every time I drive it!
@@Coops1uk awesome mate !! They are deffo good
Great gone fast 😊
Cheers mate
Hello I am searching for the hose diameter of the symposer delete, please can I know the diameter of this hose ?
I’m not overly sure tbh but just search symposer delete kit
@@Yodaracing1 I tried but cant find anything about the diameter and they doesnt delivery the entire kit in my country ( france ) :(
@@xjijinox oh that’s rubbish ain’t it erm ok try asking on the fb pages someone might know the size
I have blue interior lights all round ( done myself ) the foot well, boot and glovebox lights just look like a circuit board. Crazy
Total waste of my motherfucking time, all I learned from this was the nut is 36 mm not 34 because you couldn't be arsed to film the removal of the hub.
