Winter Beater SHO/

Drtbkercr5 · September 18th, 2008, 09:39 PM

What would be a good offer on this car? Would this be a good car, i know hmusn will like it

. But does anyone know of these cars having any specific problems? Anyone have experience with them?

For Sale: 1993 Ford Taurus SHO -- FUN CAR!

Buy it

the only issues with it that I know of are the 5 speed trannys and the cam gears. but the cam gears only need welding if you go into high hp applications.

1100.00 start from there they are fun....slight miss in car?

graystang01 · September 18th, 2008, 09:41 PM

Drtbkercr5 · September 18th, 2008, 09:51 PM

hell ya!! thats awesome then, my dads escort zx2 gets 24 and its a 4 cyl. Are the shos pretty much all stick or are there autos too?

HMUSN · September 18th, 2008, 09:53 PM

2.0 or 2.2 ztec?

the SHO's come in both. I had a 5 spd.

Drtbkercr5 · September 18th, 2008, 09:55 PM

2.0 5 spd. its gear super low

oh, i guess i wouldnt mind what i had. it says it has the 3.2 in it? So is that the mini v8 or didnt that come until later models?

2000ranger · September 18th, 2008, 09:57 PM

is that in la crosse wi?

HMUSN · September 18th, 2008, 09:58 PM

the 3.2 is a 6er.

it's a bad ass motor man. they have nice pull.. it'll give your GT a run for it's money.

Drtbkercr5 · September 18th, 2008, 09:59 PM

even with my 4.10s? that would be so badass. lol, the car isnt in lacrosse wi but i live near there. why?

HMUSN · September 18th, 2008, 10:01 PM

i'm telling ya.. the car is a sleeper...

it basically has the same HP as you stock vs stock and a higher redline.

Drtbkercr5 · September 18th, 2008, 10:02 PM

thats what i told my dad. Lol, he was like, that thing is ghey. i said it will keep up with my gt
then he was like you need mpg. and i was like i bet it beats zx2. and i was right. lol.
it is fwd right?

HMUSN · September 18th, 2008, 10:03 PM

yes it's fwd.

vfast · September 18th, 2008, 10:04 PM

Yamaha power baby!

HMUSN · September 18th, 2008, 10:07 PM

basic bolt on's......

( well 3.2 swap but whatever,, it's still an SHO motor)
