Too busy to work on the motor right now , I'm working on the beater ( 93 all rusted out Escort ) and the Focus is getting a Eibach ( pro-kit ) plus I'm working 7 days a week for over 4 weeks now ( 3 jobs ) so spare time right now is very rare..


I was expecting to do the Pro-Kit tonight but the bolts are so freaking tight I'm stuck there...Tomorrow is socket shopping , we never have enough tools anyway....

Oh no somebody had to say winter

I'm still golfing! Mustang is going to sleep on or about Oct 15th. Not getting to drive it much with the top down (raining to much) No big plans for winter months, need to save up some scratch for a new top & paint for next season. Havn't posted on stangnet in general for several weeks until today, been to busy being a slumlord, friggin tennat did the old midnight move, and almost got away with our fridge, stove, washer & dryer! I say almost because one of the neighbours called and asked me to get them to stop parking the moving truck in her parking spot.

I'm storing the car around the 15th too..

and I feel so sad, cause after the winter, if I have a new job, this car is going to the junkyard ( without the engine of course =) )

And I won't work on it.. probably maybe a bit.. but not that much..



And damn this forum is dead.. :S I come here everyday and wish someone have posted something.. and nothing.

Damn!

Oh and Mario, I've seen the guy who bought your mustang on the montrealmustang.org forums.. lol I was surprised!

Hey martin! keep up the good work!

Well car is sitting in the garge waiting for me to get my ass in gear and get it done. But I think it wont see the road until next summer now.

So I may as well buy a new hood and get that air brushed to match the rest of the car.

Also have my 2 T3's to start fabbing up and get in place.

5 Lug swap and some new rims would be nice, but the Turbo set up and hood will probably kill any budget I have since I plan on buying a house in the next month or so.

So weird that the bolts can be seized so bad on a fairly new car. You werent joking. Coming along great.

I just bought a short throw shifter for my Mazda3. Should have it on Wednesday. Lowering the height by about 2in and the shifting movement by about 40%.

After building some ramps , I was finally able to take my car for a ride for the first time after installing the Pro-Kit , I like it better ( lookwise ) it's still a Focus but it's my toy so what the heck. I took some fresh pisc tonight but without lights it's pretty dark

Looks pretty good man. I almost ordered the Eiback Pro Kit for my Mazda3 this summer and I just never did it. Kinda scared of what will happen in the winter...

Winter isn't a problem for the Focus cause since I bought it ( may 05 ) the car has never seen rain or snow even worst I never washed it with water except the day I bought it....
