Direct Plug for my ESCORT Passport 8500 x50, hidden wires

GraphiteMW · 02-04-2009, 10:17 PM

Installed new exhaust hangers (reattached my exhaust system) and started to replace my front bump stops with some energy suspension polyurethane bushings but the lower strut fork is stuck. so i took a break and it was way too chilly to work on the car. Currently waiting on my header and downpipe to get going!!!!!

Drove it to work and back. Saving money for S300, at the moment.

Last month I replaced the stereo with a Sony Xplod w/ direct iPod control. Last week I replaced all 4 speakers with Pioneer 6½" components and 4 separate 1" tweeters (came with their own crossover/amplifier for $270). I just got back from replacing the windshield ($165 and took 20 minutes). In the next 2 weeks I will be (in no particular order):

Getting 25% tinting on all windows
Running new wires from stereo back to rear speakers
Running 12' RCA cable to trunk (for sub amp)
Installing two 8" subs in custom box
Replacing trunk mat with something stronger
Installing VAFC II w/ PnP harness adapter
Replacing thermostat
Replacing lower oil pressure sensor on ATTS unit
Adjusting coilovers to summertime height

ParkerSi4ws · 02-05-2009, 05:52 PM

GraphiteMW · 02-05-2009, 06:16 PM

Finally received the header and down pipe for nearly finalizing my jdm h22a swap. Overall it runs great, need to wire up vtec and get new sparkplugs/plug wires and it should be running good. Even drove it to class, had some fun feeling the comparison between a h23 vs jdm h22a. haha i love it!!
