Couple Pics Of The Fox

[92GreenGT]

Here are a couple pics of the fox, sorry I didn't have time to clean the car or get to a better spot but it's not much to look at anyways. Some will probably think the stance is too high still but I think it's perfect *for my taste* because it looks decent and is high enough to actually drive.

This is with the coilovers up front and bilsteins on all four corners. Anywho, pics:

awesome car, is your bottom end built up or is it stock? and fig newtons? haha, please explain.

how about an underhood shot of that HP snail?

 

[Cobra912]

that thing is sick. I 'm such a sucker for those wheels. And yes please explain the decal.....

 

[92GreenGT]

Thanks guys.

Stock bottom end and the decal is just a little joke(think about Ricky Bobby)

Underhood shot(please be easy on me, first trip out with the car the heater hose popped and got coolant all over everything, haven't cleaned it)

Nice clean fox i like whatta sleeper and i was worried about my stock bottom wires look like taylors great wires just gotta slap some wire looms on em looks like a bad hair day

 

[92GreenGT]

Hehe yeah the wires are the 10.5mm Taylors I borrowed from a buddy, I've got a set of black 8mm Taylor wires that I normally use. Car was having some issues and we thought swapping the wires out would be a quick and easy test, turns out it was the cam issue. I'll have to return his wires to him, they did seem a little long, had to get creative with the routing.Hehehe

Thanks again everyone.

-Edit-
I don't want to start a new thread but does anyone have a good link/thread/write up on restoring the quarter window and side window trim? After the car gets buffed and waxed and the trim restored it won't be too terrible in overall appearance(at least hold me over till paint).

I dont have a link handy.
How to refinish them is not difficult to explain, just difficult to do
I have heard, the new covers do not look great, but I personally have not seen them close up.
I read the other night, people have been useing Build Layer Primer with a series of fine grit sanding between coats.
I am sure it would work IF your cracks/ruts are not TO bad.
Mine are pretty bad, and divited.
When they are bad, I read that you use the flexable filler, like you would use on the Plastic bumpers/bround effects, then also a series of fine sanding to get smooth.
For a top coat,
Gently mask off the area, One guy had paint peel pulling the tape, then use eather the Black trim paint (DupliColor makes a good one ive used).
You Can paint to match your car as well, with trim adhesion primer first.
Just remember, being rubber, anything you do needs to be able to flex.

As with a LOT of things, i have not got to the quarter trim yet, but i Will have to do something myself

 

[92GreenGT]

Thanks, I want to go back with black for sure. One of mine is getting bad but the other quarter window isn't bad at all. The main thing for me is redoing the trim on the front windows, you can see it's peeling and stands out like a sore thumb.

Thanks again.

I did my cowl and wipers, but the hatch trim and lower winshield trim is in the basement waiting to be refinished.
Guess i need to buy a trim removal tool as well (its nickle and diming me to death )

looks great. i like the stance. just mask off the car and windows and have at it with rough sandpaper and then spray it. just make sure you do fine sandpaper before you spray it so the scratches dont show through.

Very nice! Hows driveability with the turbo?

 

[1990Coupe]

Looks like you are running a stock cam. I too am curious as to how your driveability is with this beast.

Your car is just sick! I want to do this to mine (save the TW heads, i'm going thumper).

 

[NIKwoaC]

What kind of power does it make? I'm interested in going with a similar combo in my car.

 

[old_blue]

Ah, I see it now. Sorry, I'm retarded, and when I'm at work, I only skim through posts. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

I like the color what is the name?
Very nice car

Thanks, I know there is a good thread on here somewhere about this. I need to dig it up and find a supplies list, I want to do this BAD after seeing the pics.

Drives better than stock.

Thanks, you'll love the stock cam. Less parts to buy and works perfect. I wanted something that I could shift around 5200-5400 and it fit the bill perfectly, plus it drives like stock and sounds like a stocker sitting still. It does have 1.72 rockers on it to "take advantage" of the stock cam.

looks good. are those 18" cobras?

Thanks! 17x9 all the way around

I like the color what is the name?
Very nice car

Thanks! Deep Emerald Green Clearcoat Metallic is the color.
