Before I make any purchases, I wanted to throw my plan out for criticism, thumbs up, or suggestions.
I'm going to purchase a 2005 ZX3 shortly. I'm planning on spending about 13K total. I can find a good ZX3 for about 7k. I'm doing everything myself so no labor costs. Once I put some miles on the engine I'll put forged rods and pistons in it. Maybe Cosi IM and Ford Racing head.
I'm also thinking about painting the car myself, maybe a color offered for the RS Focus, any ideas?. Getting Euro plates too.
Here is what I'm thinking so far
Ford Focus ZX3 Build...........................................................$Price$
> FSWERKs Stage 1 Turbo Kit................................................$3,195
> FSWERKs Stage 2 Intercooler Upgrade..................................$700
> HR Coil Over Suspension.....................................................$1,100
> Exedy Stage 2 Clutch........................................................$840
> Ford Racing Rally Wheels....................................................$900
> 3" Custom Exhaust............................................................$450
> LSD................................................................................$600
> RS Body Kit......................................................................$900

TOTAL $8,685
