Hi guys, got my first Puma in January, a 2002 Magnum Grey Thunder. Since owning it I've covered 4,500 miles and I've tracked every single fuel tank on road trip le, averaging about 40mpg which is simply superb for such a revvy and nippy car. I'm about to start a project thread on here for it, and will try include screenshots of my MPG tracking for those like me, who like that kinda thing. Funny thing is I redline it a fair bit and still get 40+!!! Anyways since owning I haven't done anything except change the ludicrously big aerial for a shortened one, and the car is totally stock except the previous owner put in a rubbish JVC stereo.
My Plans
Shocks and springs (30mm drop)
Replace wishbones and every bush
Go back to original 6006 stereo or settle for a 6000
Have paints shop look into the odd little scratches and of course tiny bubbles on rear arch
Underseal the car
That's pretty much it, as I think lowering it a tad and then trying to take it back in time to 2002 (appearance quality wise of course, not Dr Who style time travel) will be enough for me.
Mods start this bank holiday weekend and for anyone who's taken the time to read perhaps you may know be able to help. Today I ordered a Gmax 30mm kit (both springs and shocks), 2 front wishbones, front and back top mounts. Is there any nuts and bolts I'll need or could just change as its useful too, that won't come included with that lot, preferably with ford part numbers.... Need to get them for Saturday morning latest. Thanks for reading
