I'm just finishing my Fireblade as well, although it's so tatty I call it a Ratblade.
After riding sportsbikes and ownibg a Blade for a few years, I've given up on performance mods for road cars. My EB Spack wagon runs on gas,and has a Recaro seat, and that's it. It looks clean, and is a comfotable ride. Maybe you could shrpen it up? And make it reliable of course |

If your looking for somthing different you should find a BMW M3 Wreck and put the motor/6 speed box (from 1996 onwards) and put it in.
My bro has a M3 and theres nothing like revving a I6 to just over 7000RPM and changeing from 5th to 6th at 235km/ph oh yeah that would be different. :sm_headba

Depends on ya funds.
If ya have lots, drop in a stroked winsor, manual and 3.9 gears. If not try freshening the motor or 5 speed conversion or 3.5 gears.

Link is not working.
Take out the angle grinder and slice off pillars A B and C. Go for the roofless look, would make a great summer cruiser. |

You'd have to let us know your priorities and your budget. It's taken me 5 years to figure out what the hell I'm doing.

sell it just kidding
looking at prices of eseries fords atm, why would anyone spend any money on a EA unless it had already been on the receiving end of some attention (ie SPHELL, JT etc) you can pick up a EL Fairmont with 220k here in sydney for around 4.5 grand, spending 4.5 grand on a EA would only net you a similar car that is still 8 or so years older... im not against EA's. I used to own one. but EB/ED/EF/EL is just that much better a base to start from
