" Bean " Webster's definition is Bearer of Bad News. Your comments are spot on as far as speed for an SC. I want to go turbo but I can spend the 5k on a lot of other things. I think I will just enjoy the "Look ".
I wll post pics as soon as I get it back from my mechanic. Next on the agenda is to upgrade the stereo . I have an Alpine in my F150 and enjoy it . So I will most likely go Alpine in the Lex.
Thanks to the forum for giving me inspiration to do the upgrades on the car. It is my "Fun, weekend jukin " car. I laugh when I see people staring at the car and my BIG FAT A>> gets out of it. Yes I am as big as a Sumo wrestler and do have Jap blood in me. Sumo

Well finished the upgrades and i am very happy with the results. The brakes are gripping just fine. The drop looks sweet and the suspension and steering is a little stiffer than stock. But it rides nice.
After the swap the springs settled and it had dropped it too low in the front/rear and the tires rubbed way too much. It sounded and felt like crap. So I raised it up 1" and am now happy. I will take pics and post up. Sumo
