Hey everyone, I just got a 95 Contour GL 4-banger 5 speed about a week ago for $730. the poor thng was in bad shape but Ive done a few things to it to make it better. I am a Honda person and I have a 88 Integra thats in pieces right now. I bought the contour to replace a 92 Civic H/B. I have to admit, the contour is very responsive. I have alot of work that need sto be done. I just replaced the tranny mount. The bastards that owned it before destroyed the old one. My main goal is to do some mods to the car. I want to see whats the most that I can do. I looked at cams and some other things but I would like some advice from owners. I can say one thing. I am starting to like my Contour more everyday. Joel

Hey;
Thanks for welcoming me aboard. I am really impressed with the contours stock ride. Its almost the same as a 3series BMW. I saw some cams from Crane Cams and they want $400. Does anyone know where to get them a little bit cheaper.
P.S. I live in the Northwestside of Chicago.
North Ave and California.
