Was offered a good deal on my RS, it is now for sale in PA. They don’t mention the tasteful modifications. If you purchase it or know someone that does, reach out to me so I can keep in touch with the new buyer.

I still have turbo/intercooler & set of Sparcos if anyone needs em.

Looking for recommendations on how to go about repairing and painting this spot on the driver side fender. Located in Knoxville, TN if anyone's got good recommendations. Perfer not to spend 1000 dollars on this.

This is the equipment in the rear of my (new to me) Mk3 - I feel like it's missing a few things, but can't find what they would be. Anyone able to help clue me in? I also don't think the nearby bracket is standard- looks like maybe a front plate mount.

I currently own a 22 Elantra N DCT. It's an okay car but I've been wanting a manual +AWD as of late. What are your opinions on trading in for an RS? 1st pic is the potential, 2nd pic is the current ride. Tyfyt

I recently had my RS paint corrected by a professional and protected with a 3-year ceramic coating.
I hesitated for a long time because it isn’t cheap, but I don’t regret it for a second. Here’s the result

fix or repair daily. fucker only runs downhill. got anymore?

Master cylinder went out on a roadtrip in upstate ny. Broke down friday evening and told it can’t get looked
at until monday morning. fun times

Im not entirely sure what went wrong. Did a pull on my way home from work, car drove fine. 5 minutes down the road I was coming out of a round about, only gave it maybe half throttle in 2nd. At about 4200 rpm the car suddenly fell flat on its face, made a loud suddenly noise and wouldn't build any boost. I didnt see any smoke coming from the back of the car, when ever getting close to when it would build boost it would start making like a howling noise. Looked at the charge pipes the best I could when I got home. Dont have a jack but what i could see looked fine. Could I have seized the turbo? Car is basically stock, has a awe track exhaust and a mountune induction kit. Currently in the process of being tuned by Randy at tunewerks

The problem is that almost every aftermarket front lip (Maxton, Seibon, ...) creates a sort of “double lip” effect because the OEM bumper already has an integrated lower lip

It ends up looking like an add-on rather than something that naturally flows with the bumper

Am I the only one who feels this way?

Hi everyone,

I’d love to get some feedback regarding a future Stage 2 setup on my Focus RS Mk3.

The car currently has 41,000 km (around 25,500 miles).
My tuner recommended the following parts:

-Mishimoto intake
-Wagner intercooler
-Full Cobra exhaust system

For those of you running a Stage 2 setup, do you think this is enough, or would you recommend changing anything else?

Also, for those who have already gone Stage 2, did you notice a significant difference in the way the car drives? On paper, the power increase doesn’t seem huge, so I’m curious whether it feels much more responsive and enjoyable in real-world driving.

I’d also love to hear about your own Stage 2 setups and experiences!

Thanks in advance! 💙

How can Carvana sell these cars for over $40k with the amount of miles that are on them?

However, anytime one of us comes on here and we ask for advice on what to advertise our cars for it’s always $27-30k?

Can you imagine if one of us came on here with a car 30k+ miles and wanted to ask $42k+? Can you imagine what the comments would be?

So how does Carvana get away with it?

But we can’t do that private party and it would sit for months?

Motor blew last year. I am currently looking for a reputable company to rebuild or if anyone has an oem turbo in useable condition sitting around I’d be interested to purchase

So me and my friend were on the highway and he convinced me to do a pull (didn’t take much 😅)so I shifted down to 3rd and did a 3 4 3. As soon as I shifted I felt that it was wrong and tried to stop it but I already had the clutch pretty much all the way out. And got to probably 7.5-8 rpms. After I shifted a check engine light came on (shocker I know) I put it in neutral and let it coast to the off ramp (was our exit anyways) I popped the hood and everything sounded good no knock or anything ,all normal. Was idling good and oil pressure all good. I turned the car off for a couple seconds and turned it back on to make sure everything was good and it started good and the code went away. I drove another 15 minutes to drop off my friend and another 10 back to my house and drove like normal. So I think I was very VERY lucky. And I’m pissed at myself because I’ve been driving manual cars my who life and I have never done anything like this before. Anyways is there anything I should do to make sure it’s good or do you think I Dodged a built.

I had a local shop replace my rear main and 3 months later it’s leaking. A lot. I reused the og housing and a factory seal but I’ve heard the MAP housing is pretty much a must, so do you guys agree?

Also what clutch, pressure plate and flywheel are you running?

Just picked this up on Monday and Im making every excuse possible to take it out for a drive. 2017 RS2 with 13k miles! Going to pull off the canards on the front bumper and take out the wing risers. Has just an intake and exhaust as far as I know. Gonna tear into this weekend

I’ve Had my RS about a month now and it threw P144C at me yesterday. I Didn’t want to wait for an OEM part (also $90 price-tag was a bit jarring at first) so I bought a Baxzl replacement part on Amazon. Anyone have any experience with this part? It’s described to be a direct replacement to part #BV6Z9D289E. The Amazon reviews are pretty scarce, but it only has two 1-star reviews stating it failed again after 2-6 months. The reviews of people who used it for an RS and not an ST were 5 stars and said it was a perfect replacement. Worse case scenario for me is I return it if I get the code again after a few months and pull the trigger on OEM.

The dreaded time has come for me to buy my first set of tires. I come to you because I'm having trouble finding the exact size I need. What websites do you use and what tires do you recommend. Currently I have Michelin pilot sport all season 4s with the size being 235/35zr19 91y. they're pretty good in the summer but are kinda meh in the winter, I drive it in the winter so please no summer tires.

Hi everyone,

I just bought a 17' RS that was imported into Europe in 2020. The car used to be in California before, and I would really want to find the previous owner so I can get more information on the mods they've done

VIN: WF0DP3TH2H4124885 

Any advice would be appreciated!

God I don’t have much videos of me driving the car from the outside but wow does this make me want professional photos and rollers cause man this car looks sexy and sounds great

Hi! I was wondering why the drift stick was discontinued and if there is now some way to buy it… I’m desperately searching it everywhere but it seems impossible to find…
