I'm trying to look for some parts for my contour, I have money and I want to make it sound nice, be fast, and look awesome. I try to look for parts online, but I can't find any that I'm looking for.
What other models resemble the contour? What can I substitute instead?? Guys I don't really know much about cars, my friends do, but they are clueless about FORDs. Any help?
 
Well tell us what mods you want.

Suspension ---how much you want to spend? do you want to lower it or make it really handle?

Performance, do you want an engine upgrade, turbo kit, or just bolt on stuff?

exhaust----There is many options here, headers, y-pipes, resonator upgrade muffler upgrades.

Tell us how much you can spend and we can send you in the right direction.


Performance---Headers which are 200 dollars from msds INC
Change your resonator with a magnaflow resonator 50 dollar upgrade, 35 for welding it in. That will give you the best bang for the buck mod.
Lower springs with struts--- 500+ dollars the price goes up from there.

Now go over to the duretec performance and look up the rest.

Use the search function for now, cause i'm being to nice.

as of right now, i want to lower the car, buy a better intake (cold air if possible), racing chip, body kit, and to repaint the car. Right now? I have a $1,200 spending limit. can I buy all of that? OOOOOHHHH!! and an exhaust! Y pipes look NICE! for that dual exhaust look, and a resonator too, for that sound that makes me want to find a dark alley, right away. any suggestions?
 
check out the main site and the stickies in the duratec and or zetec performance forums, etc for info ...
 
AHEM, you take me for an idiot? I may not be auto-savvy, but i am very computer oriented. I have looked in the main page site, i have searched through these forums and then some on the internet. problem is, i aint finding what i want. some of those links on the main page don't even work, and if they do, they're either shut down or links to other sites/non auto related. I have searched, and i came up with nothing. thats why i needed and asked for all of your help. but not really getting any.... so maybe ill just ask...

are some of the ebay products good to buy? i bought an intake off of there, but people say K&N or AEM is better... so ill just get those later. but what about the other things? like chips, spings/coilovers, headers, exhaust? or those products worth the price? or are they rips?

I don't know how old you are...but your starting off on the wrong foot. If your going to ask for help from any of us. YOU MUST RESPECT ALL OF US.

There is alot of info on this site. You must obviously know that there are many people like you that get on here daily asking the same info. SO it gets kinda annoying. With your attitude you are expecting us to cater to you.
It's gotta stop. Man up and search till you answer your own questions.
Like what i want most, what kit i want since they drop your car a certain way etc.

Ask one question at a time. We can't read your mind. So you tell us what you want and we will help you. I tried to help you in your second post and you
didn't respond to anything i wrote.

Since your good at explaining yourself. Try to explain what the hell you want in the first place.

It's like me going i want my computer to look at a website. You would be like what website. Me--A car site. etc its soo broad . Narrow your wants down so we can make you happy kid.

Just $200? The last time I looked I would have sworn it said $700.
 
If what you are looking for isn't found on this site or via a link from this site to somewhere else, it isn't made for our cars and doesn't exist!!! These cars are getting up in years and aftermarket stuff is starting to fade into history so unless parts will fit on a car currently in production, or are custom made by someone on this site, they're going to get harder to find. That said, everything you listed has been discussed here in one forum or another, ad nauseam.

Yeah they cut the price down. hope i didn't mislead you. THis is just for the headers. no coating y-pipe gaskets etc

Take a look:cool:

I'll take another look. I really wish PaceSetter made a cheap set for this engine but they just list the 2.5 Mazda version.
