    Body Kit class project

    someone photochopped an audi S4 front bumper cover on a gen 1 awhile ago. it was probably a year or more, so i don't know if someone's willing to find that post. if you're looking for Ram Air---i'd say just use the factory airbox and make a naca duct in the hood....with a cowl to release some...

    I'm not an engineer...

    I've been reading post after post after post and I've been wondering- How do particles of the catalytic converter get sucked back into the engine? I have seen a few posts with people talking about this problem, or listing it as a fear they have, but... I don't understand how this could occur...

    NACA duct?

    NACA actually stands for something...an acronym...but i cant remember what it is. they're shaped---kind of like the end of an eyedropper. the forward end is narrow and the rearward end is wide...and they're curved concave on either side. the 69-73 mach 1 had NACA ducts on the hood. The GT40...

    NACA duct?

    I was looking at the hood of my SHO today, pondering and lamenting the broken transmission, when I thought of NACA ducts. In the ford tradition (69-73 mach 1, GT40, et al.) I think it'd look purt' sweet to put a pair of naca ducts on the front corners of the hood. the drivers' side would ram...

    Handbrake

    I thought it was a great deal...

    There's no reason to be sensitive to me...i's a big boy. Besides, I bought this for a project anyway (AutoX/maybe....rally? I live in the country and there's lots of curvy dirt and gravel roads around me---with 55mph speed limits....to practice) I'm just slightly ****** that the tranny...

    I thought it was a great deal...

    Yes---I did test drive the car. I bought it on Ebay and drove before I bid. I don't know how that could go unnoticed or maybe I just didn't drive it hard enough to uncover any problems. I'm keeping the car though. There's no reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater...It'll be awhile...

    I thought it was a great deal...

    I've got transmission woes...and I don't exactly know what they are. Last week i bought my first SHO--an 89 in titanium with basket weave wheels...it had the usual taurus rust on the decklid and a little around the doors but it ran beautifully and I took it home....after paying the man 700...
