taurus sho
 

hey im new here and i was wondering who else on here has a taurus sho?

I do...and welcome aboard.

You have to remind me what FPR is..it's been a while.
Thanks.

fuel pressure regulator?

My uncle but I guess that doesnt count since hes not on here, but I can say it is a nice car and a bit of a sleeper

Why are the SHO's never at the meets?

I love those cars. =(

I got two friends in my car club that drive SHO's. The guy who started this thread is my best friend Geoff with a Green 93 and my friend Dave with a Maroon 90. Def. underated cars!!

My car's previous plate was "SHO EATR" (previous owner had it in Cali). He urged me to get the same plate in PA, but they're so damn rare up here that people would think I eat shoes or something. :lol:

Best thing about them: engine-rest of it is a Ford. They are heavy (not the ideal track car)- but comfy on long cruises...best seats around.

They are getting more and more rare around here--used to see a lot in MASS areas.

Yeah. I hate fords (some exceptions, no offense to ford guys), but the engine isn't a ford, so I can deal with it. :p

Definitely sleepers.

i think ive seen a picture of it, sounds familiar

all the years they made them up until 96 had a great engine. Yamaha powa!!

well actually they are all yamaha powered just that the 96-99 had the V8 engines putting out 235 but in a much heavier chasis.

Duratech much?!?

They are all Ford/Yamaha joint efforts in fabrication with most of the Yamaha influence in the upper half of the block. Head gasket and below can be claimed as Ford. 96-99 engines have the architecture based on the 2.5L V6 Duratec. (I like my intake plenums MUCH better!)
How many miles on your '93 and can you remind me of what FPR is?
-Thanks.

^ That?

Well haven't heard back yet from owner - what significant modification would that do w/o different injectors?? Thanks.

hey sorry about that a FPR is a fuel pressure regulator it is needed if you have a larger fuel pump on the car like i do. the car has 132000 miles on it i just need another car so i can park this one and just basically restore it.

Thanks for the reply. I just didn't know about the larger FP from your list. Any pics?

i dont have many i havent updated my pics since like 2002. i have a cardomain site too.
