    Question about dropping the fuel tank

    remember you can't use the focus float assembly. Also the baskets did look different to me. :shrug: the bolt is on a bracket that holds the filler neck into the rubber part. There is also a plastic tip on the end of the filler neck. Mine popped off the 2nd or 3rd time I had the tank out...

    A little problem in the rear.

    Of course it could be something as simple as the DS bolts were loose. BTW I vote this thread title for his CT.

    my wheels are stock 97 GT wheels.

    if 17's you can shove a 275 on there. It bulges a tad but works well for DR's.

    What could break free and be grinding in the diff?

    ^^^ things that jump to mind. bolts backed out on carrier support Bearings went south FAST Ring gear snapped. diff went south although usually the car won't move when that happens c-clip poped off although usually an axle will exit the car.

    Question about dropping the fuel tank

    ^^ I found it alot easier to pull the neck outta the tank. I've used several types the cheap plastic fuel line disconnectors seem to work ok. Not like you'll be doing it everyday. Full tank. Hope you got strong arms or are a pro with a jack. Really drain it get as much out as you can. Nah...

    Question about dropping the fuel tank

    You'll want to loosen the screws for the neck. Don't forget the lil one on the tank itself to the filler. then slowly drop it and slide the filler out. It's best to have the filler neck as loose as possible making it easier to put it all back together. BTW good luck, hope you don't have...

    Decent Quote?

    Yeah I was adding it up I came up with about 200 bucks in parts. In which case 100 bucks not to have to deal with the Diff alone is worth it. IMO. I HATE GEAR LUBE SMELL.

    Help me understand why one needs to upgrade to a 70-75mm TB?

    5-15 with a combo N/A is fairly common. Lots of Forced induction People have seen 15 with just a TB. As for the bullitt intake that is a whole nother topic.

    Cold Air Intake?

    drop in K&N filter, removed silencer, if you do lots of track racing. Cut part of filter box down and remove passenger side headlight for a ramair-ish intake.

    power from an xcal2?

    Ummm I'm assuming a mailorder tune. If you have a 93 and race gas tuen they should already have the timing and etc taking care of. As for how much power to pick up. Varies alot, depends on how agressive the tune is and so forth. Best thing to do is take it to the track and make passes and...

Great for a street car, and there are some that can make truely big power. I viewed the 1.7kb as a if your happy around 400rwhp a great kit. Waiting to see results...

    Putting together an in-car tool kit + other necessary items

    Booze and a stripper? What if you have that you won't care how long yoru broke down. Now for some advise. Nothing to do a job you couldn't get done in about 30 minutes at home. And tools that you just leave in there. Now some things I carry and love having in a car. Jumper cables. 12v...

    Do I need new shocks and struts?

    How many miles are on car? Did it start after the install? You do know most lowered vehicles ride rougher correct? But it'd prolly be a safe bet to say they could use to be replaced. Also remember if you do that you want shorter struts and shocks. Pretty common thing is for people to order...

    Need Shocks

    If your after max results on the strip. I won't go with the bilstein's, they are more a roadcourse style. Heck the monroe sensatrac's, JayC has had great luck with those.
