JMS is a tuning company which offers wide variety of modification options for almost any model. However, under the attention of the specialists fell the 2016 Ford Focus ST, with its classy styling, small proportions and sports performance character. So if you are looking to boost the qualities (external and in terms of power) of your Focus, maybe JMS is a good option. Let’s see at first what they have done with the Focus ST depicted in the gallery below.
We should also mention that the brand new JMS body kit for the Ford Focus ST3 was developed in cooperation with Stoffler. There are a lot of elements in the new styling kit, but the most important are these: the new front spoiler and the side skirts for the original ST sills that give the Focus more aggressive appearance; then come the rear apron for Turnier & Hatchback versions, with central exhaust outlets as well as the discreet roof spoiler. The latter also serves in terms of reducing the lift.

Next, the added Stoffler exhaust system, which features 120 x 80 mm central tailpipes, serves in terms of power enhancement as well as to produce a throaty soundtrack. In order to fill out the wheelarches, JMS has added Barracuda Shoxx Racing alloys, measuring 19-inch and coupled with 235/35R19 tyres.
At last, to strengthen the aggressive on road and sporty character of the car, the tuners added KW coil-over suspension, which lowers its ride height by 50 mm at the front and 40 mm at the rear. Other cools stuff that were featured in this project, but sadly weren’t detailed are the engine upgrades, high performance exhaust systems, sport suspension, suspension strut braces, wheel spacers, velour floor mats, wind blockers, stainless steel bumper protection bars, and the alarm system.

2017 Camaro ZL1 is expected to set new benchmark for the advanced sports coupe segment. And these expectations have a logical explanation: the advanced technologies, refined drivetrain system and the exceptional skills of Chevrolet engineers are the key elements that make this vehicle so special. As we all know, one of the most notable features of the ZL1 is the engine system. Vehicle’s heart is a monstrous 6.2-liter V8 power unit that produces a total of 640hp (477kW), paired either to a six-speed manual or 10-speed automatic gearbox. The fine-tuned handling system and the countless lightweight components also contribute to the overall great performance: the Magnetic Ride suspension and the electronic limited-slip differential systems make sure that this sweetie dominates the track.
The new ZL1 also catches the eye with striking visuals. The exterior demonstrates some redesigned components and overall massive and aggressive appearance. The lower grille opening not only contributes to more appealing front end view, but also helps for better airflow, while the new hood with carbon fiber insert and heat extractor contribute to the cooling. Additional features include large front splitter, unique rockers, wing-style rear spoiler and wider front fenders. These additions not only enhance the muscular stance of the vehicle, but also help for better aerodynamics and performance rates.
The sweetie proudly demonstrates 20-inch forged aluminum wheels with 285/30ZR20 front and 305/30ZR20 rear tires, Brembo brakes with six-piston monoblock front calipers with ZL1 logo and of course large 390mm two-piece front rotors. And one more thing about the transmission: it is the first 10-speed system ever geared on a Chevrolet vehicle.
