"We move a lot of things around [in the engine compartment] based on heat and to simplify how we work on the car." Would love to know what you did! Also, do you bypass the brake booster? What about the steering wheel? All airbags removed?

egr, icv, ccv removed. airbox moved. battery moved. Air bags removed. Booster intact likely, if using the stock pedal box.

These videos are the type that made me subscribe. I think you should do a series and break things down more. Making the skid plate bar, wheel diameters (I know you said 15's but other cars use others), making Kevlar protection, Kevlar Vs plastics etc etc.

They are AP Racing GRAVEL spec calipers (I don't know if they are the R5 ones or the R2T class ones they are using there?), made to work with high ET number (backspacing), 6"-7" wide, 15" gravel rally wheels, without needing spacers. But yeah, $$$$$$!

Best video I have seen so far , real good explanation.

Great video and information! Need more close-ups of all the parts you mentioned. Keep up the great work 👍

thank you so much!!! still learning a lot with you guys!! so thankful

You should go more in detail with everything and make a full series!!

These videos are exactly why I subscribe. Could you go a little more in depth on suspension, Kevlar guards, etc. in the future?

Satefy and secure all the parts in the vehicle is most important thing! Could you explain more about the chassis and suspension improvement on consequent series?

Great informative video, thank you

More information on building cages heater systems and fire suppression systems would be much appreciated

Beautiful.

Awesome!

This is very interesting. Unfortunately I have a SE type. Love watching these videos though.

Im trying to get into other aspects of motor sport, as i like touge races (not drifting in it though, if that makes sence), i like muscle cars quite a bit, like the z28(chevy), 78 firebird, and some cool drag built hondas. But im trying to learn about rally/ offroad. When i was a kid i absolutley loved offroading vehichles, like jeeps, dirtbikes, and i sort of liked rally cars, but ive never reaserched about them. Ive only watched rally races because of the impresive speed and consentration while under so much stress trying not to crash into a tree or flip over. Thanks for the info.

Could you redo the episode on is side ways faster on a fwd drive car.

Hello, great video. Im in the process of an ST build. Can you tell me the AP Racing front caliper model # you used.

How the hood pins are attached? I really want to build mine for local Rallies and I'm gathering all the information before starting

What are the wheel studs used here? Been having trouble finding aftermarket ones for my FiST

What headlight bulbs do you run on this cars? Any job done to the wiring?

Are the purple things under hood against firewall the shock parts?

Has anyone or does anyone know if the UHMW plastic (like cutting board material) is any good for under car protection on a rally car? I’ve used it on my UTV and it works great,probably easier to shape aluminum was JW.

Please advise if only 2002-2007 Subaru imprezas are good for rally because of the suspension. I am having difficulty finding these years. Are any other years or models recommended? I can find some Fiestas but the prices are high right now for used Fiestas. Any recommendations for Fiesta years? What about VW golf regular or GTI? Civics?

Did you cancel the front and rear anti-roll bars

Is it possible to apply for a mechanic job at team O'Neil?

i live in kenosha wi where the roads suck. i was thinking about getting a fiesta and put a rally suspension in it and use it for food delivery. is this a good idea or what??

A REAL gravel (or tarmac for that matter) rally suspension, like the Reiger one in the above video, will co$t you between $7000 and $10,000 US dollars (new at least). Used/rebuilt a little bit less. Just use a good set of Bilstein B6 dampers, and the factory springs, and you can go anywhere (with the correct tires) as long as you are not traveling at rally stage speeds.

Does anyone know if a part time all wheel drive system would be good for rally or should I just find something full time? Or is there anything I should be concerned about? (Btw yes I know the difference thx to team O'Neal lol)

@nasa444444

Think the answer is probably it depends on the system. From what I know, I would think in rally a full time system would be better. Since, disengaging and re-engaging the drivetrains probably is dependent on some system which adds an additional point of failure. If I base myself on this video alone, for rally u want reliability so I'm guessing the part time all wheel drive system might not be the way to go.

Hi, i have a 1.4 fiesta mk7 and i want to transform it in a little rally car. In the past few years i have changed many cars but for some reason i got in love with my little fiesta... I have changed many parts in my fiesta since i bought it till now and now i want to do some serious upgrades to my fiesta. I want to change the engine head cos the camshaft it's on it's way and i want to turn it into 1.6 witch it's not very hard but the main thing that i want to do is to make it 4wd and i looked at some videos and i have a roughly idea but i still didn't find the righ gearbox that's gonna fit. Can you guys give me some ideas or some help to find the right thing? Or can you make a video to help me and many others that they wanna do an upgrade like me. Many thanks.

What brand is that suspension?

Yo! How can I get a rally tuned car from you guys? preferably a Ford Fiesta ST. Just curious because im novice and I want to get into rally sport... I was looking into buying one stock to perform stock class stages. But I assume safety regulations require a roll cage. Please help me to get started. If I can get a good start locally. I will definitely fly up and take classes from Team O Neal!

Rallycross is indeed the way to go with a stock car to get used to the feel and get "seat time" in, plus cross events typically don't require a roll cage though they are recommended (rally cross courses don't involve the significant terrain changes that stage rally cars encounter and thus the likelihood of rolling is greatly reduced). Good luck - hope to see you out there someday.

Could you show what you've changed in the engine bay and interior please? I'd rather have the commentary over a video of what you've done. Good video though :)

I know I’m a year late. But why are you running a catalytic converter on the car if it’s a race car? Just curious

In the USA, NONE of them ever had a limited slip available, EVER, even as an option, from the factory. In England/Europe, only the very limited production M-Sport Edition ST200 had the same Quaife limited slip installed by M-Sport for the Mk7 (late 2013 to 2019 in the USA, 2013 to late 2016 everywhere else) cars at least. Not sure about the Brit/Euro/rest of world Mk8s (2017 model year and up over there), but I do believe that a limited slip is a factory option on those STs.

Sway bars? Bigger? None at all?

Those front brakes, and the Reiger R2 suspension are almost the co$t of a decent, lower mileage, street Fiesta ST all by themselves! 😱 Do you change the knuckles/uprights back to the base Fiesta versions in order to fit/have the Reigers work properly on the ST?? Is there a reason you did not change the hubs to 5 bolt in order to take advantage of the greater choice in rally wheels out there (those 4x108 PCD, R1 class, silver M-Sport O.Z. Racing 'disc' gravel wheels are LONG LONG gone, save for whatever few undamaged ones you have left in your inventory!)?? You are NOT doing any actual customer rally car builds anymore out of the school location, correct?? So then WHO would you send a potential Fiesta (Open 2WD, or Limited 2WD) ST or otherwise to for a full build, or even the bespoke parts you no longer manufacture (like the skid plate), and sources for the kevlar protection (besides the insanely priced M-Sport Poland stuff)??? Is there a rust proof, and non-destructive way to install big SMS sourced, rally mud flaps onto a street Fiesta ST without using the way too flimsy (for working on ARA Rallies) Rally Armor mounting hardware? Are the rivets on that car going into the actual fender metal edges, or the front plastic inner wheel well liner??
