MKX IPC swap with Ford Performance and Edge graphics installed. Other than running the LMS E30 tune, its my favorite change so far.

Should be on the cover of a magazine. Looking good!

looks awesome!! I like the RR wheels!

1st run he walked me buy 2-3 lengths...note that's my Son's car that we put a stage 3 Tune on... 2nd run, after the Supercharger was heat soaked he didn't catch me until after the finish...

Meet me at the NSA primary parking lot...ROFLMAO!!!?

Let me tell you something that might warm your heart. The all-time best motorcycle rag still to this day was Cook Nielsen's Cycle Magazine (RIP.) In the early-80s Cycle did a yuge mid-size street bike comparison including of course Honda's renown CB500-4 and Suzuki's GT550 and GT380 (the latter both 2-stroke triples.) GT550 (a bike I owned) won and possibly by their all-time biggest margin, CB550 being #2 and IIRC GT380 #3. I owned both the GT550 and CB500-4 (I owned about 80 bikes.) The GT550's only weak point was a lack of cornering clearance; it had tons more torque and was simply a better bike in every way. And the triple sound was fantastic, though the 4s sound great too.

I am extremely impressed; it looks like show quality. The color is fantastic. IIRC Suzuki put the same color or just barely different on the 1976 GS750, the first truly great handling Japanese multicylinder sport bike. I had a Suzuki GT750, a '73 IIRC, but mine was the much darker blue metallic, not nearly as nice as this beauty. A reliable pro mechanic that loved the GT750 engine, said that its complicated lubrication system makes it more complex than Honda's CB750 engine w/chain driven SOHC. Amazingly, considering the 2-stroke architecture, the GT750 made more low-end torque than Honda's 4-stroke 1977 CB750 SOHC I owned later. The GT's air-box is pretty loud, IIRC rivaling the exhaust level under heavy load/high acceleration. The GT's worst offense was its limited cornering clearance; IIRC the 3-4 exhaust system ground first. The GT's' dual front discs just totally outclassed Honda's CB750 single front disc. I recall the first time I saw the GT on the Marin Sunday Ride, just staring at the dual discs like it was science fiction. We were taking our break at the dam just a few miles S of Fairfax, CA, just after the coasting race down the fire-road, a race that starts just above Bolinas Lagoon.

We must all be on the elderly side of the scale to remember these excellent machines. My friend had a '72 GT 750, I had a '72 CB 500. We eluded the local constabulary on a few occasions that summer for reason I won't elaborate on.

Awesome!!!

Interesting. I'd not heard that. I put front and rear on my car earlier this year and didn't really notice any difference in wind noise at all. But then again, my hearing's not too good after a lifetime of attending loud concerts and riding motorbikes!

onyxbfly is correct. Mine would have been $650, but I wanted the EDGE and Ford Performance graphics installed as well. Unfortunately the Edge firmware would not accept the graphics pack. The person that did this for me had to go through a third party since he does these for the Ford Fusions, but has never worked on the Edge before now. Now that he has the modified firmware, he can do more of them if anyone is interested. He also has a few of the masks for the Edge which can be the biggest challenge to source. His IPCs are truly plug and play with no programming needed on your side. His name is Robert Ingle and can be found on FaceBook.

It was one of the first changes I made. Just cleaned them up, masked off around them and sprayed 4 coats of gloss black spray paint. Thanks for asking! I like to make subtle changes, like removing the factory badges and then using the black and red EcoBoost badges. One on the rear and one on the lower front corner of each front door. If you look at the rear side pic, you may notice the blacked out centers of the door handles. Used gloss black vinyl tape to cover them since other car doors kept hitting and chipping the white paint. Problem solved. Another touch was covering the Ford emblems and also using red gloss vinyl tape on the front grill inserts.

I swapped out the odd-shaped tips for standard round tips, I like the look better.

Here's where we post all Mods: That's a Ford hood guard (Accessory)

I love the new stance and the black multi spoke wheel option. Kudos !

You have nice shoppin' skittles.

Completed exterior appearance enhancements

What head unit replacement did you use? im in the market for one for the same car.

That's a nice picture! The composition and lighting are really fine. I've never owned a Suzuki or a Honda CB750 but I do have a few bikes that are kinda cool (at least to me)...

It's mostly due to low usage. When I do clean under the hood I use the following method: - Cover the fuse box with a plastic bag. - Apply carwash soap with a pressurized sprayer and let sit for a few minutes. - Rinse with low pressure water. - Dry with leaf blower. Go for a drive to dry out any remaining moisture.

Hi Omar. Yes. You can change the headlamps on the touchscreen to suit both left hand and right hand traffic. Very useful and does away with having to buy those horrible deflector stickers that you had so much difficulty getting rid of once you got home!

No worries. Here's a closer pic.

No, a set from Heko https://e-heko.com/en_GB/index

there i fixed it

That's a 2013-2016 Taurus.

This looks absolutely great. Nice wheels too.

Which model is this?

What up Ray? Did you add those rails for the roof rack? What setup specifically? I’m looking at a Yakima system for a naked roof, but like yours better cuz it doesn’t show straps around the top of the door

Yes, Got them painted professionally as well as the reflectors & chrome exhaust covers. lowered adds a nice touch as well I just started a topic with pics of some of the other toys in it the new brakes add a nice touch as well as the front windshield tint

I like the style! I went with some Asanti’s 22” as well.

I like the black shiny 21 wheels better than the original dark gray.

4690' Altitude. Don't have the DA anymore but nice cool weather.

yes it is a typo my bad they are 380mmI will fix that. Thanks for catching that

The holes are for the most part cosmetic. The 6 piston calipers will more than compensate for them. Superb looking setup.

That is nice. I wish I could have got my used sport in magnetic. Love the rims too.

Detail of the lower grill. And yes I waxed that piece

Well something showed up on my doorstep today. I don't know how but there it is and it fits my car. Whodathunkit?

whats the wheel and tire setup if you dont mind me asking

Thanks Xtra looks like we have the same taste ? I just needed a used Gen 1 to complete the picture. Sadly those are getting tougher to find on dealer lots. Making mine look like the old man in the room lol.

I have the same H&Rs and they make a great difference. I hope you like them. Excellent work the truck looks superb!

What size wheels and tires are you running? Looks like you've lowered as well, I assume H&Rs. Anyway, looks awesome!

Did the ST badge instantly firm up the ride and give 5whp?

Whole rear valance is, then lowered, wider tires

Nick I hope you don't mind, I sent the photo to Galpin Auto Sports. Perhaps it will inspire them to actually build one like this.

Looks great, waiting for some great times too!

Somebody showed somebody who's the hotshot here. LOL.

Hmmm what was your address again, Jim? LOL!
