DO IT MAN. They look good, but you need to do some work on them if you want a semi-fast car.

After just looking at lizzyfan's car, the Ford C springs are definitely not enough. Look at the H&Rs or Eibachs.

Does anyone have any pics with the eibach sportlines or H& R's ? I know the sportlines are like a 2" drop which would probably look nice .

if you really want to get a quick sn95, go with a '94 or '95. Those two model years both had the 5.0, which is even slower in stock trim. However, the 5.0 is very easy to mod, and parts for it are dirt cheap. For about 2,000 you can do H/C/I and be pushing 300 horses at the wheels and around 320 lbs/ft. Just something to consider.

Or, as I think someone else already mentioned, look for a 4v sn95 cobra.

Im just not into the 5.0 , I know since its overhead valve and parts are so cheap its cheaper to make power . For some reason I find the modular motors much more appealing even with their lack of displacement .

If your not looking into the '94 and '95 go for the 98 and get the extra 10 rwhp.[sm=gears.gif]
