    Anyone ever had luck with quarter window molding covers.

    At $400 a pair, I think most of us would be better off doing it ourselves. Dugan Racing

    Sept 9th show NH?

    Hey thats my club! In fact, Rick built my car. Lol. They're good people. Rick, the President, is a nice guy with lots of tech knowledge. I believe he was (or is) a Ford Master Tech. Anyway, I haven't been to any of the large meets but they get pretty good turn outs. Other clubs usually...

    all these posts about riced out cars, here's an ANTI-rice car.. nothing rice about it

    I miss my wife's old CRX. I really think I might pickup another to play with. Not hard to make them handle on a rail or make some decent power. Plus they run like a tank. Road noise was the only killer. Speak for yourself. Some of us appreciate nice cars regardless of the breed and I don't...

    a/c or no a/c?????????

    If you need a/c than keep it. I removed mine cause I live in NH and it was dead anyway so it was an excuse to clean up the engine bay. Also deleting the A/C makes it harder to install most centrifugal supercharger systems without some hassle

    Show off your less than perfect 5.0!

    What a previous owner did to the rear seat area of my coupe qualifies it for sure. He cut the metal out of the pacakage tray to fit a sound system I believe. I've put a steel bulkhead in to cover it. Once I got it in the way I want (with minimal rattles) I'm overing it in dynamat and carpet...

    charcoal canister removal?

    +1 A previous owner had removed mine. The vent line from the tank was just coiled and taped to its side. I rarely smell raw gas from the car. Had it been my choice I wouldn't have removed it though

    Oil Filter?

    +1 Motorcraft brand oil as well. Every change.

    A/C delete question?

    Check alignment when you do it. For some reason mine needed to be shimmed forward a bit with washers. Otherwise the beslt would slip off the water pump just enough that the belt would fray on the end and tear. Also if you do the frpp delete you might have difficulties installing a blower...

    pics of my $3 cai

    You should also remove that breather from the oil fill neck and reconnect it to the intake. There really is no reason to disconnect that in an NA application.

    5.0 haters.. 5.0 reputation

    I bought my car as a toy to wrench on and a never ending project that fits into my budget. Its also hella easy to work on, which is great since I'm not the most mechanically abled. I really don't care if its the coolest or fastest. Thats a battle I will always lose anyway.

    I found the mr. clean magic erasers work pretty well too

    should I buy an old used SN paxton?

    www.superchargerhelp.com I've been looking at them as well. Apparently they are great on mildly modded foxes but they leave little to no room for growth. Good if 5-6lbs is all you'll ever think you want. Take the head unit and turn the pully. It should take some effort but it should feel...

    A lil suspension help plz.

    I'm currently doing the same thing. Replace the axle side bushing on the upper control arm if/when you place the control arms. I went with maximum motorsports lowers and FRPP uppers and I love them. Replace the spring isolators, the stock ones are probably all dried and crushed. Unless you...
