Thanks! The car is lowered in the pic, I have the ASHAM8 module that allows me to raise & lower the car by a switch in the ashtray (pic), some guy in Europe was making these. It is really nice since my driveway apron is steep so I can raise the car to pull out and then lower it to whatever...

Enkei LM1s 18x8/18x9 w/Falken 245/45 front & 275/40 rear

I used a truck ball joint remover kit to press them out. It was fun!

Nice As far as the suspension goes which I re-did over the summer, I also used Moog (TRW) parts from Rock Auto but used Ford strut rod bushings (there are 4 per side). I also replaced the rear knuckle bushings (3 per side) with poly bushings.

I did not use drilled rotors either. Brembo rotors made for the Cobra front & back.

Enkei LM1s silver polished (not chrome) version (5 x 4.5), I have Mustang hubs 18x9 in the rear using Falken 452s 275/40 18x8 up front using 245/45 I will post pictures when I have a chance

So, two different tips, both with a 2.5" inlet will have different sounds? I am looking at tips and don't want the "kid" sound but it is hard to find conservative tips with 2.5" inlet. The smallest ovals I have found with a 2.5" inlet are 3" x 4.5" and am not sure if the sound will be...

I have 18x9s on the rear w/38mm offset using 275/40 and have no rubbing issues unless I lower the car to it's lowest setting on the ASHAM8. The fender lips are rolled.

What wheels are those on that 96? 17s or 18s? Looks great!

Looks great. What brand/type of tire is that? Are Speed-Stars available in 17x9 for our Marks? What swayed your decision to go with 18s over 17s?

Will the 3/4 Kooks clear a stock steering knuckle? Will cats fit in this setup along with a dual-in, dual-out mid-mounted muffler? TIA Al, 96 MK8

Had the bad steering wheel shake and installed brembo rotors and raybestos quiet stops. I broke them in properly and the shake went away completely. However, the shake has come back (not as bad yet) after only 10,000 miles. ;(

http://www.vibrantperformance.com/ I believe the part# is 1406. The inlet size varies depending on the manufacture date. Vibrant changed to a 2.5" inlet in Feb 05 from the original 2.25" so make sure you ask the distributor before buying because they may have some 2.25's left in stock.

Hello All, Recently on my 96 w/60K, I have noticed the "O/D OFF" indicator light flash on and off about 5-10 times before an upshift. It doesn't do it every time. This happens with the O/D Off button not engaged. I did the 1-2 upgrade about 10K ago w/Mercon V and a B&M cooler with no previous...

RE: How many people would be interested in a GP of a 2.5" mandrel bent cat-back exhaust system? That Edelbrock Stainless Steel 5512 is on clearance at SummitRacing for $88. Not too many left, or so it says.

RE: How many people would be interested in a GP of a 2.5" mandrel bent cat-back exhaust system? I am definitely in, but I am still waiting for Dan to fabricate more LT headers before I do the entire exhaust. I think LT headers with hi-flow cats, a dual-in/dual-out edilbrock and 2 mufflers...

Any time frame Dan? I would much rather have your LT headers over the Kooks.

Well the next best choice would be Kooks I guess. Dan's website still says new headers will be coming in March of 04!

It will be a project because I figure while I have the engine lowered and factory exhaust out, I might as well do the following: 1) pull the tranny and install a stall TC 2) put in the MMX driveshaft (it is sitting in the garage) 3) put in a 3.73/posi entire pumpkin from max 4) put in a fuel...

Thanks for the link, I had no idea there were so many shops that perfomed this programming. Anyone in the NJ/NY area have any positive/negative commments of any of the SCT shops in the tri-state area?
