GAZ FIESTA ST150 GHA COILOVERS £789.85
GAZ now offers a GHA coilover kit to bring ride height and damper adjustability to the popular Mk6 Fiesta ST150. GAZ damper units allow damping adjustment while on the vehicle by means of easily accessible adjuster knobs/top adjusters. The GHA kits feature shortened body and stroke lengths to allow a -25mm to -55mm ride height variation, with a coarse Acme thread form for easy adjustment.
Each unit is zinc-plated to minimise corrosion and to ensure that the height adjusters will go on working for many years to come. All units are individually tested before leaving the factory and are covered by a two-year warranty.

WEBCON DCOE MANIFOLD FOR ZETEC ENGINES £334.64
The Zetec has been the staple diet of engine tuners for over 20 years, and one of the easiest ways to liberate more power from Ford’s twin-cam is to fit a pair of Weber DCOE carburettors, or DCOE-flanged throttle bodies. The key component in that conversion is the intake manifold, and Webcon can provide a new, quality, UK-manufactured, 60mm deep intake manifold that allows fitment of Weber DCOE carburettors as well as DCOE-flange EFi throttle bodies. The manifold is also available as part of a complete conversion kit, including a pair of Weber 45 DCOE carburettors and linkage, priced at £1505.70.

MOUNTUNE MK4 FOCUS ST SHORT-SHIFT ARM £169
Mountune’s Billet Short-Shift Arm for the Mk4 Focus ST replaces the OE shift arm located on the gearbox and provides shorter, crisper gear changes for an enhanced driving experience. Mountune says that, after considerable evaluation, its engineering team determined the optimum shifter throw reduction on the Mk4 ST to be 20 per cent, which allows for quicker and more precise gearchanges, but thanks to the engineered billet steel counterweights, doesn’t sacrifice any shift engagement or feel.

BC RACING MK5 MONDEO ESTATE COILOVERS £899
BC Racing has just announced the arrival of BR Series coilovers for the Mk5 Mondeo Estate. The BR Series is the coilover kit BC Racing recommends for the best balance of performance and comfort, and the firm says is designed to have the best overall compromise of spring rate, ride height range, top mount design and damping rate to suit the majority of owners.
The BR coilovers are more than capable of dealing with fast road and track work, but also retain a high degree of ride civility, so the car can still be used for everyday duties and long journeys without the ride becoming tiring.

DEI STAINLESSSTEEL HEAT SHIELD PADS From £57.96 (plus taxes and shipping)
With performance-tuning a fast Ford comes extra, unwanted heat. And managing this heat is vital to performance and reliability. But sometimes you only need to protect a certain area; things like shielding hot turbos, or protecting vulnerable components. That’s where these new stainless steel heat shield pads from DEI come in very handy. The pads are made from double-sided, high-grade stainless-steel with a high temperature insulation layer. The welded seams seal the insulation between the stainless-steel outers, making for a durable, long-lasting shield. Grommet holes are provided at the corners for easy mounting, and DEI says they can withstand a direct heat of 2000F (approx 1090C). The pads are light, and they block heat better than factory items, and can be hand-formed to fit bends and curves. They are offered in two sizes: 10x20cm (£57.96) and 30x30cm (£92.61) – costs are subject to import taxes and shipping costs from USA, or you can check out UK-based DEI dealers for prices.
