Ugh, Escape calipers and pads? I thought there was something with Focus rear calipers and pads...???

I did not like the way everything looked retaining the grommet, so I am welding in a 1/2" NPT bung to the top of the VC. There will be an NPT to AN adapter at each end, and an -8 AN hose between them. NO MORE GROMMET! Seems like eventually I always get to the right solution, and with each solution ...

John, do you have any photos of this setup?

Mostly Eaton in here, but I'm wondering if anyone has a model year for the T/A Camaro or Firebird rear diff that fits. I know 82-93 or so, just wondering if I might be able to find one in a yard or part out. I have a few diff housings from the XR, might attempt to do the swap on the cheap to see if ...

I've got a set of round pullies from a 92 Mustang.
Those are plentiful in yards, I had the whole car for a while to pick from.

I know any replacement is gonna be the wrong color. I may be able to get replacement doors from the same car I get the drivers fender from. Wont know till I go to get the fender. Drilling 54 spot welds sounds like a really good time

Ok, I got fenders too...That match the doors...

Curious about front motor mounts as well...I'm sure I need to do this on both of my cars, but it's a big pain in the butt...

I'd say get out the drill and wire wheel for the bottom of the car, see just how bad it is. If it's just surface rust then wheel it off and POR it. That door looks like crap though...I've got a door/s but it's white if you decide you want a replacement.

Are you buying or selling?

Where were you located in Detroit? And do you like Texas better?

I guess I'm curious about what sensor you're using then. I used GM 1/2/3 bar sensors before, 3 bar did not have the same resolution for the map as 2 bar. If I was only going to 10psi, I didn't need a 3bar. Seems like a lot of people just bought 3 bar sensors to pretend they were cool, even though th...

Photo's, contact info?

Why not just put another engine in it?
many cars get parted due to them being rotted, but engines are plentiful since some people part the cars so people can keep the good ones running.

The "large" NPR intercooler you want is the one with 27 rows. There are 4 or 5 different part numbers with very slight differences like an indent on one of the tanks, etc. etc. FWIW the factory unit made in Japan by Tokyo Radiator must have some internal magic because the aftermarket replacement on...

Below is an abbreviated part number listing of Isuzu intercoolers, some of which are the same minus some random specification. Some of which are totally different in size.

I have both (Stinger PimpX; MS3x). BAP sensor is inside the ECU case, and 4 bar MAP sensor reason manifold vacuum/pressure.

Are you running in excess of 35 psi manifold pressure?
I'm not really clear on how the Pimp system works...
