Hey guys I havnt been on here in a while but since my last visit I have sold my cobra due to issues with finances and I have now goten into a 92 LX hatch. The car is real nice and has 108k on it. It has cai, 70mm TB, 80mm MAF, Dynomax headers and catback, off road Hpipe, new shocks, struts, springs, caster camber plates, STB, B303 cam, Live wires, screamind demon coil, ram clutch, pro 50 shifter and some cosmetic interior and exterior stuff.
The car runs real strong and it seems pretty quick. What kind of stuff should I be looking for on a car like this, stuff other than basic tune up stuff. Also what can I expect a car with these mods to dyno at and what kind of 1/4miles times can I expect. Thanks

If it doesn't have gears already, put some 3.73's in it.

Got any pictures? LX hatch's are my favorite.

Figure out what gears it has, and if they're stock, put in 3.73's. It may pull pretty hard now, but it will pull harder with the gears.

What color is your car, it's hard to tell in the pics. Green?

You don't know how much I hate you, that's my favorite color, on my favorite 5.0.

Seriously though, that's awesome. I had an emerald green/grey 2-tone GT a few years ago, but LX hatch's are my favorite. I'm on my 3rd LX hatch, and I really wanted an emerald green one, but I couldn't find one locally.

Thats what I was going to ask you. I agree there was an emerald green in 92 and I think your right on the money. Very nice find.

I'd have to agree with JChalfan, gears are a great bang for the buck mod. Or you could start beefing up the suspension, thats something we all tend to forget about until we've already got more power than the body can take. Awesome looking hatch by the way.

Would this be enough power to take out a stock or a bolt on 99-04 GT, given the huge wieght difference?

Stock 99-04? You'll smoke them with ease.
