Well, I finally got off My lazy a$$ and looked @ the f2 site, and it looks like I'll be saving up for the RS kit for My sedan. I can't believe They make one! Then EAP rims, REAL Machs, and I'm done....'til the swap, anyhow.

[mikebontoft]

^^^ NO WAY!! holy crap lemme check that out!!!

[mikebontoft]

ooh btw, what ya swappin with? I'm absolutely fine with anyone doing the SVT swap in their sedan now.... cause I'm puttin that Taurus engine in there instead

[jmiller_1974]

Not sure, yet. I'm kinda thinking about going Dtec 23, just because of the availability of parts, both OE and Aftermarket. And I'm saving for the widebody, It's only a bit over $1000.00 with shipping, and My Pro Shop Guy said He'd do the install for $150.00, and the swap for $1500.00...


Dammit, this car's getting expensive...

[mikebontoft]

J, I hate to say this........but I think you have me sold on that widebody kit... (meh I'm sure they'll make more of them) actually no, I lied....(don't like the rear bumper, too much difference on the left side to allow me to do my dual exhaust setup.....

ok announcing everything I'm doing....

so it was my original plan to copy massive's SVT sedan (for the most part) by getting Machs, the SVT front bumper, sideskirts, and interior, and a SAP rear end..... well now I've got my original Idea that I now believe I'm sticking to

From F2:
RS front bumper (looks like it doesn't change whether it is the wide body or not.....)
00-04 front fender flares
05-07 rear fender flares

then from some other places I guess:
05-07 SAP rear bumper
05-07 rear fenders, taillights, and trunk lid

then the rest:
3.0L V6 02 Taurus Engine (rebuilding myself)
SVT contour cams
02 (or so) cougar or contour MTX-75
00 Contour SVT ECU
Nautilus turbo kit (with upgrade to intercooled and higher psi.... pushing close to 400whp)
SVT focus....recaro leather seats
that Ghia focus map light
Mach's with HID
Euro "triangle" turn signals on the front fender
whole car repaint, but to stock color (pinstriping MAY be reapplied )
a nice black and dark gray w/ silver accents interior
02 cougar gauge, fully functional
a guage pillar pod (cause of the turbo :D)
Custom fabricated dual outlet magnaflow exhaust (hopefully I can find the same or similar tips I have, cause I love my current one )
SVT "Dark Argent" EAPs
of course all other necessary parts to make it work :B
and whatever else I may have forgotten!!

oh, also any little bulbs will be replaced with some LED's, like in the map light, any turn signals, and (if I get the chance) I may even take the taillights apart, paint the reflective material black, and built an LED kind of circuit board thing so I have LED tails, kinda like you ZX guys have

[mikebontoft]

oh, can't forget lol..... gotta get the euro front grill as well

^^ I believe, but correct me if I'm wrong, that those wheels are from a stock ST from Europe..... they look familiar. but yeah that car is hot.... I love it too

[moodakameboy]

then i guess thats the lip kit he was talking about selling...

[Kauai Guy]

indeed it is!

btw mike, the overhead light with maplight isnt euro. i think theres one for sale in teh parts/accessories.

if you get teh REAR overhead light for the sedan, then WOW haha.

[YZ04]

I have the rear dome light! I bought it from eBay UK before I found out it was also installed on some NA foci. It helps so much having a light back there at night, along with the cold cathode lights I installed under my seats and in the footwells.
