After being down for 7 months due to a spun rod bearing I have gotten tired of this project and decided to sell. The shortblock has been replaced with a stock 14k mile shortblock that was sold because the original car got a built motor put in. The heads have been gone through and new valve seals...
I was driving out of Tucson Mall and spotted this turning and going in the same direction. I never thought I would see one and didn't even know they sold them in Mexico
2012 Ford Focus RS, for those of you that don't know
I put in a new engine recently and fired it up today. We bled the brakes, burpped the coolant and took it for a spin around the parking lot. When the car is in gear it feels like it's binding up.
We checked the brakes and it rolls freely when not in gear.
There is no grinding noise from the...
So back in November my car (91k miles) spun a rod bearing. I replaced the shortblock and had the heads redone, etc..
I have everything, at least that I know of, plugged in but the car cranks but just wont fire up.
I checked for voltage at the crank positioin sensor with the key on and it...
I am looking for the outer most heater core hose that has the square plastic connector and is grey. I need just the clip, elbow and hose. I don't need the metal part that goes into the head. Please let me know what you have and send me a pic to make sure it is the right part.
So the last time I had my car tuned the tuner said that my pumps were at 100% duty cycle but it wasn't running lean because the injectors were doing their jobs just fine. I bought a BAP, wiring upgrade, and 60lb injectors with the plans of getting the blower ported. The porting plans fell...
I need to set the timing on my car and I just want to set it to factory specs after I put a new shortblock in. I had the heads cleaned up and new valve seals put in. I need to see if anyone can post pics of an engine with the factory timing so I can see how the cams are aligned when the engine...

So I was driving home in my work truck when I saw a Vette in my rearview that looked kinda like a Grandsport but with a higher cowl in the hood. It pulled up next to me and I saw "Supercharged" on the sides of the cowl. I started to look the car over and saw Callaway all over the car. I haven't...
So last night I was driving my car around town and all of a sudden I couldn't get my car into gear and my clutch pedal felt soft. I pulled over and noticed a ton of slack in the clutch cable. I have a UPR quadrant and firewall adjuster and both of those were in the same spot that they have been...
My friend just installed a used KB 2.2 and is having the problem that when he starts the car the idle starts at 4k and starts to climb. I have not had a chance to look at the car yet and he is super frustrated right now. I was wondering if any of you knew where to start in looking for the...
I took the Cobra for a short drive today to the store and I noticed the smell of radiator fluid. I got home and popped the hood. There was fluid on the coolant overflow tank (stock unit) and it seemed to be mostly arount the cap.
Anyone else have something like this happen? Did you have to...
I couldn't hear any lyrics. I like metal but I can't stand it when there is nothing but screaming and gutteral growling. Maybe if you can transcribe the lyrics for us.
My AC compressor is making noise and I need to replace it but I don't have the funds due to having fixed a few things on my wife's car. I was wondering if anyone has switched to to a smaller belt to bypass it?
I plan on fixing it but I don't want it to lock up on me
I am about to trade my stock 03 hood for a 95R hood. My question is if the LFP IC resevior will fit under it. I have heard from someone that it doesn't and I just want to find out from someone first hand.
BTW, please do not respond "Don't do it!" or anything like that.
What is the other IRS diff cover that is made besides the FORE? I know there was one that I saw in a thread a while back but I did a search and I can't find it.
BTW: please do not respond "Just go with FORE, it's the best"
You are not helping
I've been trying for some time now to find a good deal on the Mach 1 radio and shifter bezels but they almost always run over $100 for the pair. I've about given up and thought about painting the peices myself. I was wondering if any of you have done this and what proccess/ paint you used and...
My father in law is selling his 97 Vette with 33k miles on the clock. It's always been adult driven and garage kept. He also stored it in the winter in a heated airplane hangar. Black exterior and Grey interior and 2000 Vette chrome whells and new Goodyear runflat tires. It is an automatic. He...
