My car has a t5 tranny, full Spax sport suspension kit that lowers the car by an inch and a half or so, drilled front rotors, sweet old school pioneer tape deck (wow!), Ford motor sports roller cam and some sort of cam gear and Borla dual exhaust.

Future mods are

-Gillis valve
-Front mount intercooler
-Roll cage
-Rear disks from a turbo coupe?
-40bob log intake and turbo header
-Full 3 inch exhaust from turbo to the rear of the car
-Cosworth headlights, grille and sideskirts
-RS500 front bumper
-150 mph speedo for those 2 am runs on the freeway!
-Mega squirt setup maybe.

I dont know why my grill is cut like that but it looks like it may be factory cut or an optional grill because the lines are very straight and rolled. Not flat like someone took a hacksaw to it.

This is the best view of a merkur I think. Here you can see my duel exhaust and squating rear end.

Here are some pics of the sweet little suprise that I got when I took the head off my car tonight. You know you are jealous of this destruction.....

Did you cut your grill out? That is a cool look. Have you seen the cosworth grill? Good to see a XR fan!!
