Yellow Fogs! haha
much jdm yo...


The tint should atleast protect the fogs during the winter. Super thick stuff.
I didn't realize I order pre cut tint for sedan... but luckly they're pretty close.

Yes I know I need to touch up the underneath of the bump. I guess the previous own didn't know how to drive a lowered car... Doesnt help that the springs are damn bouncy.
sorry, dirty car

i like the yellow fogs. i actually run the hella yellow optics in the fog and indicators. id run headlights too but I already get enough flak lol

Found out why the car was acting funny. Rear mount is shot.
Ordered a massive mount.





I also did the throttle body ground mod... i know there's lots of arguing about it, but it made a big difference for me. No more hanging rpm during normal driving and minimal during full out. Really happy with this 2 min, free mod.

No idea why I can't edit my post... here's the pics resized.

Try this tip: it may or may not work but there is a school of thought that Ford pulls timing with the clutch depressed to ease shifting. May help with hanging revs.
Locate the clutch position sensor-I believe it's red. The plunger should be depressed at rest and extends with the clutch in.
Tape the plunger so it always stays depressed. You will lose cruise control auto-shut off as the sensor, when depressed, cuts the cruise control to prevent over revving.
Can't hurt to try.

So I noticed awhile ago that the car had a small leak. Found it on the power steering lines, so I checked around. Ended up finding the power steering tank was broken. The previous owner just slopped some glue everywhere, idiot.

So I ordered a new tank, was damn expensive.
Go the tank today and replaced it in a thunder storm, wheeuuuu. Now no more leaking and the powering steering isn't being a whiny bitch (low of fluid due to leak).




What the old tank looked like...

Back to school, mustang is parked for the year. Now its just me and the focus in calgary.
Quick shoot, dirty car.

Snowed here in calgary...

Thanks!
I think I've almost done with the maintenance.

Then next year I'll have to decide if I'll keep this focus or upgrade to a ST. But since the mustang is itching for some major mods, I think I'll keep this focus. So I have more plans for it too

Installed my massive mount! huge difference! Love the feeling.
There's a lot more vibration at take off, which I was expecting. Wonder how I could minimize it though.

winter tires are on. The kid that at the ford dealership managed to save my plasti-dip pretty good! He took off the outter weights and put inner weights
