dropped the coupe

[91CoupeMike]

what a sleeper, sure doesnt look like a car that goes 0-8.4 in warpspeed seconds

Do you mean, 0-81.7mph in 8.4 seconds? or how about something even a child can comprehend, 0-60 in 4.6 seconds?

Post a picture of your car and let's compare.

Mike, to be the lowest in back, make sure the end of the coil pigtail is at the back of the car lined up at 6 o'clock if u are behind the car. Having the coil just wherever can have the car a quarter inch or so higher or lower side to side.

Dang it, I did them backwards. I thought the end of the coil needed to face the front 12'o clock. That makes more sense though now that I think about it. I knew there was a trick to it just had it all wrong.

Thanks man. Lol

The rear settled a bit overnight, I'm going to wait a few more days before I try and change anything..

I had the rear two in, in about an hour or so. The drivers front went in without any problem but the passenger side whooped my ass for 2+ hours alone. I didn't have any ratchet straps or coil compressors and no way to get to the store. Finally got the tools I needed and of course that didn't help at all. Finally had a buddy come over and 2 pry bars, busted hands, back and legs it went in. I have never dealt with springs before so it was all new to me, and being extra cautious doesn't speed anything up.

Needless to say, I feel like I got hit by a damn truck this morning. Lol

Ratchet straps? Coil compressors? You know how I know you've never done springs on a Fox before?

Pry bars and busted hands sounds right tho.

Looks like you got me beat there, that goes zero to retard in dammitsteve spacebrain time.

It's because it's not reliable enough to even make it down the race track.

140 miles a day for 18 months, and driven daily for over 2 years, and 100+ passes later, Ive never had a problem. Maybe its the way I turn my wrenches.

Very nice looking coupe.

Very nice looking coupe.

Still needs a lot of work to be "very nice" it's a work in progress.

Thanks, its my pride and joy.

It's a 20 year old car things will break. I've never had anything fail from racing I'll tell you that.

The car needed a clutch when I bought it.

Want a list of the things that have broken?

Clutch.
T5 that came with had bad bearings, never failed me just replaced it.
T5 I replaced it, I grenaded reverse acting a fool.
Harmonic balancer let loose on the way home from school.
Fuel pump went out at work.
Ring gear bolt came out due to previous owner not using lock tite.
Clutch cable seized up.
Timing cover gasket failed.

That and my wheel fell off once from stripping the nuts with an impact, use error. Nothing broke and I still made it home fine.

I wrecked into a ditch, still made it to work on time and still make it home that day.

I have never had an issue while racing. That's for damn sure.

Try again Steve.

thats funny you just said you never had a problem.

[91CoupeMike]

From racing, and none of that is a real problem. Ive also fixed it all myself and havent ever missed out on anything because my car was broken. You're trying to make me seem irresponsible and you just got showed the fuck up.

[91CoupeMike]

Stop trying Steve, youre trying to get cool points but everyone just feels bad for you because of your shitty attempts to troll. Give up man, I schooled your ass on Facebook too. So shut the fuck up.. Sheesh.
