    Yeah im after some Capri parts. My boss was telling me the tracer was the same chassis in that year, so ill look for some of them at the pull-a-part. Im off tommorrow so i'm gonna do the plugs/wires/fuel filter and possibly go borrow Louis' distributor to see if thats the reasonf or lack of spark. My boss is also ragging me about buying his GT. He has something like 10k dumped into that car, and it dosent even run, lol.

        BOOYA! Car runs now. I'm sure the only things inside of the dizzy is the igniter and the CPS, so one of the two was bad. Drove it around the neighborhood with NO brakes. A master cylinder, rotors and pads are in order. Oh, and a timing belt, water pump and an exhaust patch job!

              If your brakes are shot, do the vr4 swap now! Just converted my 88se hatch to disk rear from a capri. I removed spindles out so it was easier to swap. Remember to get the E-brake cables to keep that working.

                    i doubt he will need vr4 brakes for a auto 323 which is prob his daily.

                      It is never a bad time to prepare for Madness! Besides, it is an easy process that helps braking and makes maintenence easier in the long run.

                        Went to pull-a-part and got my capri rear disc conversion! Also scooped a good third brake light to replace my bad one. This car will never see madness in my posession. I plan to give this car to a friend as a gift. I'll post up pics of the install tommorrow.

                            Ha, don't be sad! Some of the 323s have to keep some originalness.

                            With the 3 626s, my hands are FULL! Although i also will be taking ownership of this sometime during the summer:
