Well since the 1mz has been giving me trouble an i needed a break from it before i just threw a stick of tnt in an walked away i desided it was time to start fixing lizs old car
![]() Little bit of a backstory. Shes been a big mustang fan since forever thanks to her mom the loves them too so when she finished basic training for the army the first thing she bought was this mustang that a friend of mine She paid 2000 for it (witch looking back was probably about 500 to much) it was in fairly desent shape other than a slipping tranny ok before i go any farther Car specs 91 mustang lx hatchback 2.3l 4cyl nonturbo Auto trans When she bought it the stang was bone stock. The first big thing that was done was the rims were changed to the ones in the above pic I traded my old 90 ford festiva for them an 3 radios. -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

Then the exhaust rusted apart
so i took it up an got a daul exhaust ran on it This whole time the trans was still slipping( this was 06 ) but it was only doing under hard acceleration so it wasnt too big of a deal as long as we kept the trans full of lucus no slip trans fluid ![]() But the time finally came when the trans finally let she had amazingly lasted alnost 2years But when it did go we were too broke to fix it so she sat waiting for a new trans About 6-8months go by an her mom ends up having a spare trans So we got it an start swapping the trans an while were doing that my 90 celica gt died so we rushed the trans swap In the process of the rush job we didnt get the torque converter seated all the way. Im use to chevy witch clunks 3time when the converter seated but ford is 4 clunks( didnt know that then) Since we didnt have it seated before we bolted it up the t/c got f**ked up as well as so ![]() -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy
