    my first color change.

    25thmustang: would you mind terribly letting me know as well? I'm likely going the PonyR route once I get my 5 lug stuff together, hopefully this spring. Ryan218: The blue you've picked would look great. IMO Focus on the bodywork and figure out your wheels later.

    Steeda Sport Springs

    I have them in my LX Hatch but it's under a car cover, covered in snow at the moment. Expect to see a similar drop to those with FRPP B springs and no isolators. The front tires (ponys) are basically in line with the fenderwell and the rear fender is about 1" above the rear tire on my car. I...

    my first color change.

    I personally think the Chrome Pony Rs would look sick on '81 hackjob. Really really really sick! When I go 5 lug on the hatch I will DEFINITELY be purchasing Pony Rs myself!

    Poll: Luxury vs. Performance

    I agree with everyone: you need BOTH! I have built a strictly "performance" car where functionality was key, I ended up selling it after driving it a couple of years as the bone jarring ride and lack of comfort features ended up turning me off it. This made me decide to take a different...

    Old men and Cadillacs

    Agreed, these things are killer! My buddy was at the track and saw the current CTS-V doing some hot laps, he said it was a phenomal, can't wait to see what this thing does!

    Will Fox Bodies go up in value?

    This is a topic that is becoming more and more popular as our cars get older. I see both sides of the argument but eventually time will tell. I'm curious to see what happens... Of course the "middle of the road opinion" is that they will continue to rise at a moderate rate based upon the...

    Tremec TKO swap thread in a foxbody

    GL with the tranny I had 2 bad ones in a row. They did however take both back and provide me the 3rd one which has been in for 8K and seems fine. Now that i've got a good one it was well worth the hassle.

    To sleep or not

    Everything IWASHMYCAR posted is my exact definition of perfection for fox notches. I've stared at that white one several times while daydreaming about plans for my own white notch. I'd like to add my .02 of how great the Pony R wheels are for sleeper fox cars. When I go 5 lug i'm definitely...

    new edge seats in a fox

    +1 the seats in my notch are light grey and starting to get a little worse for wear. I'd like to see what they look like especially since you got them to sit lower with the LX brackets.

    Frozen coolant? How worried should i be now!!!

    BCMBCMBCM: They basically don't check emissions. I had to bring my car in province from BC and it passed the OPI(out of province inspection) with an o/r h-pipe. I have everything else hooked up as original though. We don't have to worry about the emissions "sniffer" either, we are extremely...

    Someone PLEASE buy this.. ugh! gorgeous.

    Super, super clean! $5K seems cheap for such a clean car. I guess it all depends on how quickly you need to sell. Plus the color isn't exactly a mainstream choice.

    Winter Vengance

    I gave up on my car yesterday and brought the battery inside. I am experiencing the same ridiculous weather bloopbloob described. It's my old friend the shoelace express / the bus that'll be getting me around for the time being.

    Frozen coolant? How worried should i be now!!!

    Other than this week it's been really, really mild with no snow. I've been driving without any problems whatsoever. But we are getting HAMMERED at the moment, it's just TOO DAMN COLD! This weekend it's supposed to get alot better though.
