    Anybody Run a 305/45/18 or 295/45/18 on a Fox??

    NT555R 315s on 17x10.5" wheels. They tuck just inside the fender, but I had to roll the outer and hammer the inner.

    Installing some new intake bits this weekend, what gains should I expect?

    I mainly got the spacer for easier access to the valve covers and because it came with hardware that I didn't have. It was actually a 1/2" so that should be fine.

    Installing some new intake bits this weekend, what gains should I expect?

    I purchased an Explorer intake manifold w/ 1" spacer, 70mm mass air, 70mm throttle body, 70mm egr spacer, along with 1.6RRs. I was looking for a low buck way to get a bit more power out of my car, and hopefully I will get some... Should I use the manifold spacer? Current mods are in my sig.

    Pics Of Your Fox With Rims

    Nitto NT555Rs 245 17/9 front, 17/10.5 315 rear. No quads plus I rolled the outer fenders and hammered the inners

    Rearend not centered?

    A little update... I installed the upper control arms, but left the bushings on the axle end (they looked fine). This didn't help much, so I loosened all the control arm bolts and had someone lean on the car while I tightened them. The passenger side tire was probably sticking out 1/4" and I was...

    Hard start, fuel pump?

    I figured it out. It was the coil. It was putting out a spark, but apparently a weak one. Swapped in a stock coil and all is well again! Plus it runs better than ever after the new fuel pump and various sensors I cleaned/replaced. The moral of the story is that MSD is crap, that coil had less...

    Hard start, fuel pump?

    I last set the timing to 14 degrees, it ran fine set there for a year and hope it hasn't changed! I tried starting it this morning... it backfired a couple times and a few cylinders fired when I was cranking, but I couldn't get it to start. I noticed that a small coolant leak developed from the...

    Hard start, fuel pump?

    I went through that checklist and everything looked ok. I ended up putting in a Walbro 255 and it DIDN'T fix my problem, but the original pump was on its last legs and the S shaped hose connected to it had a hole in it, so it was good to take care of that. So in order for me to start the car I...

    Hard start, fuel pump?

    I checked codes with the engine off and running, nothing. Cylinder balance test twice, nothing. After so much testing and cranking, my battery was getting pretty worn down. I charged it overnight and when I primed the pump, my fuel pressure shot to about 35 psi! Maybe the weak prime was caused...

    Hard start, fuel pump?

    Bought a new fuel filter... no change

    Hard start, fuel pump?

    Got in my car the other day and instead of starting in a few cranks, it took probably 20 seconds of cranking total to get it running. Up until now the car had always started up right away. The last thing I did before parking it was change my oil and fill up my gas tank a few days ago. The last...

    Rearend not centered?

    I would love to buy a torque arm and just toss the uppers, but I also need a panhard bar... and neither is in my budget right now (going five lug ended up costing a lot more than I had thought). I found a pair of upper control arms that I like: J&M Mustang Rear Upper Control Arms (79-04) at...

    Rearend not centered?

    I just finished putting on 10.5" wheels with 315 Nitto 555Rs out back. The driver's side fits under the fender, but the passenger side sticks out about 1/8th of an inch. I checked the upper control arms and they look straight, bushings are a little dry but good, torque boxes are fine. I have...

    Repairing crack in bumper?

    I have a 2" long crack on my front bumper skin that I would like gone. Do they make a glue that I can melt it together with? I'm not sure of the bumper's material, but it's the yellow stuff.

    4 lug vs 5 lug 2003 Cobra replica wheel fitment on a fox

    17"s and the offsets are 25mm front, 27mm rear. Should be tight, but I think the rear will fit since I don't have quad shocks. Hopefully I won't have to roll the outer fender either.

    4 lug vs 5 lug 2003 Cobra replica wheel fitment on a fox

    So my tires are pretty much done for and I don't want to buy another narrow set of 225s for my 1990. This time around I've decided that I might as well convert to 5-lug and get some 03 Cobra wheels to go along with the tires! Currently, I can't afford to buy the wheels/tires and the '95 spindle...

    Code 94, help!

    Just an update: The tube and passenger side's head passageway were both blocked up pretty badly. I sprayed the tube out with carb cleaner for a while and got it flowing much better. The passage in the head was kinda a pain. I stuck a vacuum line in the passage and sprayed carb cleaner into it...

    Code 94, help!

    How does the computer know what side is getting air? I didn't see any sensors on the pipe, do the O2s detect this airflow?

    Code 94, help!

    Today I hooked a length of hose up to the check valve and blew into it, air was flowing with relative ease. When I tried sucking the valve would close and I would get no air flow. I tried taking the air tube off, but it seems stuck on with the might of god. I sprayed some PB blaster on the bolts...
