    Control Arm question

    Torque box reinforcements are cheap and VERY easy to install. Even if you don't launch your car hard right now, it may only take one or two times in the future to mess ups the torque boxes. I bought mine from stangman393 on eBay. He makes them himself and I could not believe how simple they...

    I just finished my Diamond Plate Custom Door panels! *PICS* They look great!

    just giving you a hard time... nice work :nice: , just not my taste. you know, i did read something about an electronic blow off valve that is hooked to the TPS. i guess that's for the rest of the poseurs who want everyone to think they are fast but aren't. anyhow, man, nice quality...

    I just finished my Diamond Plate Custom Door panels! *PICS* They look great!

    just my $.02 but, maybe to complete the look, you should add one of those multiple level diamond plate(or carbon fiber) wings to the trunk/hatch/roof. then, you'd would totally fit in with all those ricers. sorry, but that's just my opinion. i'm partial to original door panels or an aluminum...

    Porsche Cayenne S + hot women

    All right guys. Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Lamborghini has already built an SUV. They were called the LM001 and LM002 and produced in the early 80's. Check out the link for pictures, descriptions and specs. Also, Porsche does not build a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S. They build the...

    What does Japan think?

    I was in Japan for the 2003 Tokyo Auto Salon. Absolutely incredible! Every car show I've gone to since just pales in comparison. It's a lot like SEMA with a strong emphasis on the manufacturers supporting the aftermarket companies. In 10 days I saw more GT-R's, Supra's, EVO's STI's and NSX's...

    Last bolt on water pump?????

    put the belt back on, loosen all the bolts while holding down on the belt to cause a lot of tension. remove the belt and then back all the bolts out. you can also take a philips head screwdrive and slip it through one of the 3 holes and jam it up against the block or the water pump. that's a...

    4 grand for this?!?! (pics included)

    i agree about getting a glass hood! exactly what i was thinking. about body shops not wanting to touch personal stuff, if they're saying that, time to find a new shop. period. i don't care how good they are. find a different one. the body shop i use works on everything from F-50's to...

    Stroker Kit On Ebay

    i wouldn't buy anything from this guy if i were you. i've talked to them and they are the real slick type. when you order you part, you best know what to expect because they sell a lot of generic and knock off parts. you do not get what you pay for, even if it is inexpensive. a couple...

    wheels wheels wheels

    i have 1999 SVT wheels on my '86 hatch. i have 2000 GT brakes and spindles up front while i have an 8.8 from the same 2000 GT out back. i have 255 comp t/a's up front and 275 nitto dr's out back. the 2000 8.8 is wider so it pushes the tires out almost to the edge of the fender, filling it up...

    Best Drag type springs for a fox? 4cly or 99 gt+

    try 6 cylinder springs. i know a few folks using them and they really like them. a little stiffer than the 4 cyl but they transfer weight way better than the 8 cylinder units.

    Coilover/Kmember question

    I installed a PA k member in my '86 hatch. Gorgeous part. Fit with no trouble, no modifications. can use stock springs and a arms if you are not able to afford the tubular and coil over parts. Check out vernonhouse on eBay. He makes these suspension bits and they are very reasonable. I...
