      Put a contour V6 in it and then some staggered mustang wheels and it be amazing. Color if you decide to paint the ford company used a color on these called candy tangerine. super color on these cars.

        You're thinking of the 2nd gen. Tangerine was a 95 only color, and I have only seen one in person, EVER, and hell I have now owned 7 2g's. The contour v6 swap would be no good, they dont make any power, and dont have near the potential this car has with the F2t, or even an FE3-T motor. Staggered wheels on fwd cars is weaker than cat piss (IMO).


        MY suggestion, is throw a mid-frame t3 on this thing, some 850's or 1k's, aeromotive stealth pump, Megasquirt, and E85. Up the boost and make 400whp/400ft/lb on like 20 psi. On the stock motor.

        Anyways, good start on this thing.

          Hey guys.
          Thanks for all the awesome comments. Sadly to say much as I was loving the probe low ans wide. Piston 3 didnt like the 20lb from the 28r. so she took a vaca. So project stance is on the hold shelf right now. I have my camber plates for the front so once i get the engine back together she will be even lower. and ill be getting spacers for the back.

          So when I get it back to together and on the road she'll have

          Front rx7 camber plates
          inch lower drop
          t3 turbo
          More POWER!!!

              Where we last left off.....



              I had just out the wheels and tires on and then this happened to piston 2 and 3....


              So I ripped it down to the block pulled the pistons and put new rings and bearings in and replaced those 2 pistons. In the time i had it apart to do rings and bearings I thought about goin bigger with a t3 60 trim. well I did. t2 out t3 in.

              So in the process I got some goodies.


              Felpro Headgasket, Cusco plates, AWR Solids, ARP Headstuds, Vibrant flange for the Turbo,


              ARP Studs in


              Looking to see what ill blow away to flow better


              Mock up


              Costum Down Pipe.


              Sprayed with Flame Proof


              Bleeding HLA's


              Full 3 inch exhaust


              Little adapter for the 38mm tial


              Together,

              So far so good, Pulls Great Cant wait to dyno.

              Ill be doing some good pics of the car soon soon. Stay tune.

                  I LOVE this thread. One of my favorites on S/W! The power numbers were retarded, I can't wait to see the new ones!


                  If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right.

                  Your blast pipes look stupid.

                    My only 'dislike' is the FMU...that's not really fuel management, more like a bandaid but I guess you are limited to your fuel controller options.
                    Dunno, it looks like its an effective band-aid. lol

                    That's a respectable torque number there, sir! Megasquirts are pretty fun and simple, but what the hell do I know, looks like you're a seasoned tuner!

                      I like it. Any interior shots?
                      Who needs stance, give me comfort and handling.

                                I saw a Probe just yesterday and thought to myself, god this is an ugly car. You just changed my mind.
