yes, its a joke. Its refering to a memeber on mnsc by the name of backup. he had a navigator (refered to as "Gator") with backup sensors etc...
Now for real.
Name is Ryan. I'm picking up my 07 Pitch Black ZX3 this friday. Traded in my 00 ZX2 for it, plus a chunk-o-change. Add-ons will come soon after. Lookin into a Skunk2 shift knob, clear corners, blacked headlight housings, OZ ultraleggra's, etc...just some moderate apperance mods for now. don't wanna wreck the warranty.
Hopefully I can get some info, and i'm rowdy for some serious spring meets.

Actually there is such a thing as a JDM Focus. Apparently they have special mirrors. Besides that I do not know if anything else is different. Trahma could probably tell you more.

o. Didn't think the focus was available in japan. Figured they had enough small econo-cars

You are buying a ford not a honda. You don't put Skunk2 (Honda parts) on a Ford.
Try re-thinking the rice mods.

I know a lot of people told not to get the focus, but you'll have a good place to come to for help here. If you think about turning your car into a ricer though, we will knock some sense into you. We dont play that shit

are you the kid from mnsc known as zx2racer or something? if so, good choice on the foci. i have a crap load of bolt ons for the z-tech that i need to move cheap. and dont listen to pappy, he ran a tsudo exhaust forever and possibly AEM cam pullies with the exposed timing belt(uber ricer)

Correction for teh noobs:
Tsudo, yes. You tell me how many other full 2.5" SS exhaust systems there were for the foci in 2002.....
AEM, no. Focus Central, yes. And of course the cam cover was removed, you normally do that sort of thing while running upgraded cams with adjustable cam gears. You can't tune your cams when the cover is on.
....
You fail.

Lol@ Rob
You are seriously not one that should be talking. You did buy an auto to begin with, so I wouldn't be making fun of the choices of other people.
And before you start jabbing at me and my "bought car", just remember that I have probably upgraded just as much on my car as you have on yours, mine was just a better starting point. That and it will soon be going through more changes, which will basically amount to it being more civilized.
