The Bullitt is getting an S-Trim, built rear end and some small bolt ons so I want the suspension to be bearable. I bet you shaved 50+ lbs from that k member

for now I'm actually running the stock k-member. looks retarded since the spring perch is empty in the a-arm, but, it's a street car and a k-member isn't a top priority for me at this point.

i know it's "just a gt with a body kit" :tongue3: , but it looks fantastic with the coilovers.

get the rear coilovers and the Q400 hood and then the blower better get put on
Fixed. and agree. ill allow the rear coil overs and the hood but if the blower doesnt go on after that, im flying out there and making u install it. lol

haha thanks man. I've actually changed my plans slightly with the blower. I'm gonna pick up a teksid block and forge it, my friend's fully built PowerHeads 2v Heads, and slap the blower on top with cams. That's going to take awhile since I currently have two projects going on at once though. For now, in the stock motor I'm just going to throw some n/a cams at it. I need to finish building my '92 Hatchback 2.3 Turbo so I can dd the crap outta it

at least my gt with q bodykit came with a suspension that isn't laughable :p jk bro.

yup, it'll be awhile before I do that though. the 2.3l turbo is my main project car that needs attention. building it up to give to my dad since he's done a lot for me over the years. best repayment I can give to the person that taught me everything I needed to know about modding cars.

put the supercharger on the stock motor while u wait to build the motor u want. then u can at least be faster for the time being. after that work on ur 2.3 turbo then build the motor, then everyone will be happy :D

also my suspension isnt laughable.... :sad5:

the s/c kit is incomplete so I'd still have to throw $$$$ that I don't want to throw at a stock motor. I'd rather learn the handling characteristics of the car n/a anyhow. the car's first track day will be at Laguna Seca next year when I'm finished with the 2.3 and can afford to spend a week out in San Francisco for NASA Time Trials.

In due time I will have a built motor, for now, the power is more than enough for me and for my tires.

oh and I was comparing stock cobra vs. stock roush. My roush is valued at $15k because of it.
