Re: I get a kick outta
Steve, I was leaving MPLS heading "north" on 94 before it makes the turn to head west on 694. It was about 1:00 AM on a Friday. I was with my sister-in-law heading back home after a concert. We are doing about 70ish, guy in a Talon comes up and paces us before he "drops" it and g...

Re: 07 ZX3 SAP or ST?
The ZX-3 is what "hot-hatches" are all about. No one ever goes out and buys a "hot" four door sedan. The ZX-3 is what the Focus was meant to be by the designers in EUROPE that came up with the idea of a Focus. Ford NA has bastardized the Focus to the point where it no longer is e...

best alignment specs?
Thought about adding this to my tire wear thread...but I didn't. What is considered the "best" settings for alignment when it comes to the Focus and hard driving. Not necessarily a pure Auto X set up but, very spirited driving etc. I am going into the shop on Monday and am looking for some...

Cheers,

unusal tire wear?
Just got done checking out my old tyres after picking up my new wheels from Josh. Haven't had a chance to get them mounted on my ZX, my current tyres are wearing weird. The insides of both fronts have almost no tread left, the outside edges are better but also heavily worn. I installed the SVT suspe...

Re: You gotta be kidding me
That, my friend, is exactly why they invented such things as TOR and PRIVOXY. Lets just say that running these made it possible to avoid General Order No. 1 when "surfing" the inner net on a Gov't line.

Re: RS REPLICA FOR SALE!
Well, There was a very small window where they sold the 2.3 PZEV nation wide in the ZX3. If you want some actual eyes on verification...come over and take a look at my '04 ZX-3 with the D23...yes, 2.3L Duratec engine. I have been driving the snot out of it since I got home. It was a PZEV...but since...

Re: what do you think
Past tense baby! The S1 handed out our "6 pack" a couple days ago when we were clearing Phoenix.
What other lic. options do you know of? ie. Bronze Star?

Re: what do you think
I don't think round would flow. How about a rectangular strip about 1/2 down. The strip would be lighter/no tint, going horizontally across the lens. Start it on the body side, about an inch in, mimic the angle of the lens, then stop it about an inch from the trunk side of lens. What are you using t...

Re: its a mondeo?!
WTF? Why can Ford - Europe, sell less than 1,000 ST220's in one year and still make money? And more importantly, why can't Ford North America pull its head of its ass, and do the same type of limited "performance" editions that the UK or Euro gets? It wouldn't be hard to drop their 3.5L/30...

Top Gear?
Top Gear, the Brit car show, you know the one, does any cable/DSS system carry it in the Twin Towns? Or do I have to settle for pirate copies off the inner net? That has got to be the best car programs on tv today. Between that show and the car magazine "What Car" the Brits actually have a...
