Getting my 16 NB back hopefully this weekend after a block rebuild. I've always been interested in cars (grew up around my big bro's classic muscle cars) and this is my first fun car. Love the newbie friendly info from your channel and the whole vibe of info delivery. Gonna do this mod eventually and the sequential turn lights as soon as she gets home! Thanks for all you do here, it's a HUGE help and confidence boost that I can diy too.

@CameronAlford Год назад

This is whats up Keith! I appreciate you and why I do what I do. Thanks for bringing the positive vibes to the car community!

@coreyscarrepairs Год назад

Cameron bro. I've been a professional mechanic for 7 years now. And I do have the tool for spreading the knuckles on those style struts. But you taught me something with that bolt and plate trick. Just goes to show anybody can learn something from anybody. Cheers man.

@CameronAlford Год назад

Heck yeah! I learned this from other people online but yes always can learn from anyone! The strut spreader tool doesnt really work on the ford and luckily the knucle is threaded to be able to do this unlike the german cars

@grey5719 Год назад

Yo I started watching you when I got my 2018 focus and loved watching the mod videos. I got tboned about 2 months ago but I still enjoy you building a beast focus. ❤

@eduardopantoja5997 Год назад

Loving the Focus content lately Cam! Originally came to the channel because of the STI but just been enjoying all of your other content as well

@CameronAlford Год назад

Eduardo you made my day. I appreciate you. I’ll keep grinding!! Hope you’re doing well and life is good 🙏🏻

@ABZero_A90 Год назад

That plate and bolt trick is incredible

@Raven_without_feathers Год назад

I used the "KW Electronic Damping Cancellation Kit 2016+ Ford Focus RS" when I installed my Airlift Performance suspension and that fixed the drive mode errors.

@Prolly_tyler Год назад

Track mode is still available, just press the suspension button after you out it in track mode

@garthmccutcheon1495 Год назад

Just got the same coilovers for my st can’t wait to get them fitted great vid bud 👍🏽👍🏽

@IPhonesCrash Год назад

They are nice! I just out mine on

@caseyryan2164 Год назад

Love the vid. Super informative as always. As someone’s already mentioned, to get the steering and throttle response of track mode on the coilovers you have to select track mode, wait till it the track mode light comes up on the dash then hold the suspension button on the stalk. Then it’s all sorted👌🏻

@CameronAlford Год назад

You rock, thank you!

@cliftonmcintosh6193 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic well done 👏🏿 for a brilliant job 😊

@TheEquivalentXchange Год назад

Some suspension manufacturers sell a delete kit for the active dampers (plug kit) to trick the system its active.

@sgtmorhew Год назад

Did the front strut assembly come built out of the box? Thats pretty convenient for swapping and doing it yourself

GTI question!!!! Have you though about upgrading your headlights on the GTI or is there a video already out by Cameron Alford

@keelanjenkins5170 Год назад

How drastic is the change in ride feel? I daily my rs and have been looking at options to improve it. Just wondering if it’s worth the money?

@jeffreygonzalez4828 Год назад

If no one has a random scrap piece of metal to pry open the top part of the knuckle. You can use a wrench. I used a harbor freight wrench and there wasn't any damage on the wrench.

@CameronAlford Год назад

Great idea!

@ajdub5 Год назад

Did you verify the pre-load was set properly?

@coreypage025 Год назад

The drive mode error only appears because when the dampers change from normal to sport while selecting track mode. To get around this error on coilovers without electronic damping cancellation kit when selecting track mode quickly press and hold the button on end of blinker stalk to turn off sport suspension. You should see spring light on dash turn off. I believe you have a few seconds to do this. If you purchase Electronic Damping Cancellation Kit you won't have to perform the above.

@geronimoguzman290 Год назад

Where do you get the cancellation kit @coreypage025

@Prolly_tyler Год назад

Mine didnt get warning lights, it just said that my performance modes werent available, all you gotta do is put it in drift or track mode and then immediately press the suspension button

@james8287 Год назад

Hold the sport suspension button on the turnstock as soon as you select track mode.

@jessebudelman Год назад

The 5th drive mode?

@Mk4RS_Za Год назад

God damn I love this Channel, quick question, any of the Civic Type R's in your plans for the future (Ill for sure still be around to watch even if its way in the future), JDM Honda hype is real.

@CameronAlford Год назад

My girlfriend just told me she wanted one. Super weird of her but i was thinking about the Honda boys would be hyped

@danbeer4452 8 месяцев назад

When can we expect an air suspension setup?

@dekwul Год назад

Öhlins makes a cancelation kit that eliminates the warning

@jordanklehr5789 Год назад

Cameron get a exhaust 😭 very clean though 👍👍

@damianhaley625 Год назад

I know your not wanting to do car give aways anymore but every once in a while you should do a part give away cause if I could win some of these I would be hyped lol

@IPhonesCrash Год назад

I own these for my st😘

@Mpostor Год назад

Nothing is needed to fix and use track mode. As soon as you select track mode hit the button on the left stalk to turn off the suspension mode. It will then work no problem, this is what all RS guys do including me!

@serotonin182 Год назад

Would you ever consider doing a series on a Volvo, especially the 5 cylinder era of Volvo. Love the content Cam. Keep it up.

@CameronAlford Год назад

Possibly!

@serotonin182 Год назад

@@CameronAlford If it's possible, the Volvo 850, maybe? I have one and I really want to modify the way you guys do it.

@reddevildetailing1806 Год назад

Hey Cam. Have a 16’ RS putting those exact coilovers on my car as I type this. 😂 did you adjust the rear and fronts or leave it from how they sent them.

@austinwrighteous Год назад

How did they affect your ride? I know the RS is stiff as is

@SirTrevorJames 11 месяцев назад

This I am curious about

@is_y_03 Год назад

does the rs use same suspension/chassy as the speed3? seems similar

@IPhonesCrash Год назад

I think the st is more similar. Could be both tho

@icleforce Год назад

When purchasing the BCs, what options did you choose?

@CameronAlford Год назад

Just added it to description!

@finamic Год назад

Im 17. Parents are getting me a different car very very soon. do you think that a focus st would be a good choice. been driving for around 2 years now.

@CameronAlford Год назад

An absolutely great option. Simple fun cars with great support from people and the community and parts. Fun behind the wheel every day!

@finamic Год назад

@@CameronAlford Yah fs. It would be cool because my parents a have an explorer ST, and that thing is quick, its 400hp and does 0 to 60 in around 4.9 to 5.2

@roccodemassari5871 Год назад

❤❤🔥🔥

@mikeinsi87able Год назад

I'm curious why you didn't go kw instead.

@CameronAlford Год назад

BC’s are affordable for most people, they support creators and fun events and projects. All around good vibe. KW is of course gonna be able to perform better than this BR series but the best of the best isn’t necessary for a street car for me. She rides nice now finally

@dominothegrinch Год назад

This is a longshot for a response, but does anyone know if the rears have dampening control like the fronts do?

@SeanFarley25 23 дня назад

Yes

Did anyone notice that Cameron went for a test drive and forgot a lug nut on the front wheel? Don't know if that was his intentions but just trying to look out for ya.

yeah i didnt wanna put the locking lug nut on knowing i would be right back to take it off and have it ready to put the. new wheels on the next day

Haha dude I have a downpipe sitting on the shelf. I’m spooked cuz people are saying turbo studs come out and strip the turbo. This comment is making me realize I’m not acting like my normal self tho 🤣
