[bluemustang]

Good stuff whats the stats on the car? colors etc etc.

[Dark02Pony]

awesome man

[SpectorV]

is it mass air or speed density?

[Bane-]

1st mod will prally be a cobra rear bumper cuz it needs one then header back exhaust w/ 2 1/2" pipe with either 1 or 2 chamber flowmasters and side exit (want really really loud)

its the maroonish red color. but theres primer on some of the spots, one big patch from someone keying it. (this guy took good car of it, whenever something happened he'd sand it out then fill it with primer to cover it, theres no body filler or rust spots which is a plus)

its speed density but redrum might sell me a conversion kit for it (never know he might decide to keep it and if so, o well. but that conversion is planned for it)

It used to be a 5spd but he had a auto tranny built for it because it was going to be his track car but he never got around to making it for the track. so theres a beefy auto tranny with a b&m ratchet shifter in there which is nice, but i wish the 5spd was still in it just to play around with lol

theres also minor stuff hes done, like a hood scoop, chrome valve covers, has flowmasters on it but i think he just swapped mufflers, the piping looks like the stock size. and some nice comfy leather racing seats in it (driver side needs bolting down...acts more like a rocking chair lol)

but not bad for $1500 damn im good at haggling
but i should have it either monday or tuesday. but its not that bad, hes only selling cuz his 15 y/o son totalled their taurus by backing into a tree ( in their yard lol )

i like the lx look, clean and simple with exhaust tips that are polished and angled up with the bumper.

yeh but i found that cervinis makes a 03/04 cobra hood for foxes, so i might do 93 cobra body kit with that hood and eventually get it repaited the reddish color or very dark/glossy black.

also a 5lug swap will be done.

[01mineralgrey6]

congrats

after i get the speed density changed over i was thinking on a F303 or E303 cam. wont be daily driver mpg isnt to much of a issue i just want the erratict(sp) idle but still decent power thru the power band.

[fast64]

an f-cam is too much cam for a stock motor. i have a comp cam with similar specs to that of an e-cam, very nice

[bluemustang]

thats awesome dude btw dont let the AOD scare ya mine is all redone and ha 5 or 6 speed has nothing on me

But my advice is dont jump around in mods. First and foremost if it doesnt have a tune up I suggest doing a full tune up. if theres any codes check them now there usually for the EGR or PCV.

Secondly I suggest stiffing up the fox with full length subframe bars and strut brace cause ill tell you what on your first speed run your def gonna feel how loose a fox is.

Third def change out the speed denisty to mass. cause your aftermarket cams arent gonna like you.

Even though foxs are very cheap to mod up but there also as easily to screw up with not the right mod combos. (read all the horror stories over at corral)

Good luck

this is awsome, i want to get a fox as my second car. congrats
