1992 Ford Taurus SHO review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission (5spd) failed requiring replacment.
Engine knocking above 3000 rpms.
Oil consumption.
Blown rr brake caliper required replacement.
General comments?
Even with all the repairs made and future ones inevitable - the engine, I have found the SHO to be fun and an excellent alternative for foul weather driving or spirited sunday drives. I've added Bosch +4 plugs, K+N filtercharger, Powerstop crossdrilled rotors and accel wires. The car responded well to all the performance upgrades. I look forward to upgrading the engine. I think this is a good 4dsc (four door sports car) to coin a Nissan term. My first love is still my twin turbo 300ZX, though.
