A few months ago I took leave and returned to the United states to purchase a car that I had my eye on for a while. While I didnt get to bring it back to Japan with me, I did get to drive it around for 3 weeks when I was home. I think I posted it on every board but here....Anyways, Cant wait to return to the states and really start having fun with it. 
Anyways, Its my 4th Taurus SHO and I think this is my favorite one yet =).
And here's the day I bought it trying to Rush it home to California from Arizona so I could show it to my dad before it got dark.
The suspension/Brakes...
And the Engine...
Anyways, You'll notice the Battery acid marks on the Left side of the engine bay. The previous owner used to Road course this car a lot. One of the Tech's inspecting the car somehow knocked loose one of the covers and the car went a few laps with Battery Acid flying around in there! :uh oh:
In any case, Its mods are as follows...
SHOShop catted "equal length" Y-Pipe
Fibertuff 9-puck clutch disk
SHOnut teflon impregnated alumina ceramic coated TOB release shaft bushings
SHOnut hybrid ceramic TOB
Tim Dahm aluminum rear STB
Aluminum sub-frame bushings
Brake ducts
12" Bondurant/Baer brakes with braided stainless lines. Fresh PF pads on the front, Porterfield R4-S pads on the rear..
Tokico struts with Intrax springs.
20.5mm/26mm swaybars
BMR adjustable rear control arms w/H-Brace
Rear knuckle braces.
Schroth 4-pt ASM Rallye-4 harness (tucks away when not in use, factory 3-pt still in place).
Transmission vent hose with filter.
Transmission drain plug.
Subframe is powdercoated Ford blue.
Thanks for looking. :rockon:
