Gidday, and welcome to Fordmods.

Wheels, suspension and exhaust are a great starting point.

As for ideas, my best suggestion, is to read a bunch of Garage threads and look at what others have done before you, pick the ones you like the best to copy, and possibly add your own touch to.

Cheers
BenJ

Well, I broke the mount for the intake piping coming out of the strut tower yesterday so no pics for now I did however just buy a ba airbox with k&n panel filter for $25 (hell yeah) so ill take some pics and post them up when it comes int the mail and I put them in. I read on one of the other posts something about them fouling the guard so u have 2 mould the 2 fit or beat something out. Does any one have any advice on this? any help would be appreciated

Cheers

The BA airbox is suited to fit the BA wheel arch and the EF wheel arch is not the same. To fit the BA airbox you will need to sit it in there and see where it hits the wheel arch. Then sit a piece of wood on the area and smack it with a hammer and trial fit it until it fits. The bolt holes are the same so you just need to dent the wheel arch.
