I have been getting the urge to sell my 94 gt and get back into a foxbody. I have never really enjoyed driving the SN95 as much as I did the fox, it always seemed slower and like a boat in the handling department. Well then I decided that I would put a turbo on it and that would fix everything. Well the turbo has been on for probably a year and a half now and while it is fast, its not power that I can really use on the street without breaking a lot of traffic laws, so it really didn't give me what I was looking for. I have also grown tired of the way it looks, Im not sure if its the color or the body style.

So now I have a car that I have put a bunch of money into and I still am not really crazy about driving. So I am torn,

1) should I put more money into suspension and appearance and build a HCI combo and ditch the turbo

2) should I sell it and buy a fox and try to recreate the car I had before

3) should I try to trade it for a fox that already has work done.

I just start thinking about all the work I had into my old fox and how much money it would take to build a foxbody comprable to the car I have now. I am just tired of having a car that I don't enjoy driving. I remember the foxbody having more of a go cart like feeling to it, and a lot more torque at the lower end.

sell me your wheels and then trade for a fox

seriously..wheels...

honestly I think no matter what you do to it you arent going to be happy. if after all this time you dont like it I dont think that an HCI is going to change anything. I am sure that someone out there with a clean fox would love to trade for your car. if not put it back to stock. sell it and then put the turbo parts on whatever fox you buy.

I would sell/trade it for a clean, stock fox and build the fox the way you want it.

One idea would be pull the engine/transmission and wheels. Find a clean fox, do the swap and sell the sn95.

Clean car. I loved mine and actually almost bought another when i got my current notch.

Personally, i like those and would keep it, but its all subjective to personal opinions.
