Matt’s smarter than me. Right from the start let’s get that straight... For the last several years I have gone on & on about the Ford Fiesta ST being the best, most fun car… even for double it’s sticker price. Yet I don’t own one. Matt does and it’s one of the...

4-bolts is what it "should’ve taken" to get the rear KW coilovers on my Porsche 944...  That is - if it were any car other than a Porsche 944 lol. And as mentioned in the previous post on the front coilovers (Link to the KW coilover install on the FRONT of this 944),...

“Over My Dead Body” // RB25DET-swapped Datsun 280z

Be warned: This is some 'Talladega Nights' sh*t right here. And I mean that in the best worst way.  Let me try & set the stage:  It was a late summer afternoon in 1975 when young Jeff Ross brought home his new Datsun 280z. It was the first new car he ever...

Race Red Ford Ranger FX4 Review

With the Ranger, I think Ford has more leash to experiment with design & concepts, compared to the   F150... Ford can't experiment with the F150 tooooo much, since it's the bread & butter seller in America. Americans like their trucks a certain way... big,...

How to Train Your Wagon

Subarus man. The lovable, lobey oddballs. Yeah sometimes they need a little help, or a nudge to get over those initial performance limitations. But admit it - these cars have a quirky, all-the-sudden-infectious personality about them. And it’s funny that Subaru always...

Kill or be Kill – John Moore’s K-Swapped CRX

by | Apr 11, 2019 | ,

“I’ve said it time & time again: Car manufacturers 20-30 years ago… they took chances. They made these oddball cars like the CRX or the Del Sol that were more for the driver and NOT for the purpose. The 80’s & 90s stand out to me… because it was more about the...

Our Fiesta ST w/ 2J-Racing cowl intake craziness

by | Mar 25, 2019 | ,

So we went to 2J Racing for their seriously 1-of-a-kind cowl induction intake on the Fiesta ST (feeding a Borg Warner 6268 EFR in this case). Instead of the intake coming from the driver-headlight area as normal, the 2J intake comes from the cowl up/under the...
