For example, Maxxis MA-Z1's cost me $135ea and last about 30,000kms, but the Bridgestone Adrenalin RE001's on my car at the moment can get about 60-80,000kms, but cost $185ea.
My new favorite cheap-o all-seasons are the Sumitomo HTR high-performance all-seasons. Quiet, good dry grip, comfortable, cheap.
The Ford has been really reliable, the radiator did develop a crack, but I did the ol' hillbilly tune up, fixed it with an egg, and 3 tours later, not a single issue.
I got a bosch when mine died on me. No complaints :thumbup:
We have an '05 ZX5. The alternator crapped out at about 45k miles. $50 part, did it myself. Otherwise, it's been flawless. 60k and counting.
I run TT rotors with Boxster calipers. I like this setup very much. Brake pedal is a little firmer than stock and they are easy to modulate on the street.
i have a 255 lph intank from a 5.0 mustang and have none of these problems only issue i have is the car takes a few cranks to start because there is no check valve on the pump
I had one, don't overheat it. The heads crack/warp easily. I went through two of them before I got rid of the car. just make sure the cooling system is good.
econolines are ok except for one huge cluster****. On the late 90s through 02 i think they built them with too few threads on the heads for the spark plugs. Consequently spark plugs routinely blow out.
Issam's right about the poor reliability of COPs. We regularly have vehicles in the shop whose spark plugs outlast the coils that fire them by tens of thousands of miles. One 5.4L ford V8 got six new coils before a single plug failed at 90k.
