Yes the Probe. A lot has happened since we last spoke about this car, including a new 5-speed transmission, water pump, clutch and pressure plate, strut-tower prace, power steering pump and *gasp* the highly coveted INTACT DIPSTICK. haha.

But you can't see all that going down the road, what you can see is this.





The Probe used to have a crappy rattle-can black hood and bumper, but has recently gotten a new factory black hood and front bumper, and a completely one-off quad-headlamp "sleepy-eye" conversion. Many other Probes and a few other cars have similar conversions, but they don't utilize factory headlamp housings, this one does. Outer lights are highbeam, inner are low beam.

Turbo project is still in the works, shopping for rods and pistons and a Millenia ZE IM.

For those wondering, YES it does Ludicrous Speed.

looks a lot cleaner than my integra haha

looks nice though, love the lazyeye conversion, glad to see no rice in sight

Yep, that would be the view from my rear view mirror.

Looks much better now.

I think the humor is inherent in the fact that the car is called a PROBE. Seriously though, nice clean look.

Yo j, one day I was rolling with my brother in West Melbourne and this chick in a black Probe pulled out in front of us. I was like "damn!". Then she stepped on it. vvrroooOOOOMMM PSsst. "DAMNNNNNNN!!!". She was gone in like a second. A chick riding in a turbo charged Probe, and she was smokin hott Maybe you know her, but she would be perfect for you

Does look pretty sweet, unfortunately it'll always be a Ford Probe... can pick em up here for under £1000.

Never seen her, 2nd gen like mine? I think I know who that might be, probably his girlfriend. He / she is not in our Probe club but they are around, just haven't ran into them to ask them to join.

Any woman that can handle my stickshift Probe as well as operate a manual transmission is a keeper in my books.

most of the girls i know cant even parallel park let alone operate a stickshift

My little civic would look better with a rattle-can paint job on the hood... I don't know what the former owner did, but several areas have seen resprays... I think it was a ricer car before it was mine. It has repairs in the truck where the wing was and I still have the wanna-be "Momo" pedals.

Oh well... it'll probably be awhile before I can get another fast car. I'm hoping I can make up for it with a fast motorcycle next summer!
