Vehicle Description
A more sophisticated, supercharged and intercooled version of the
3.8 L OHV V6 was used to power the high performance Thunderbird
Super Coupe, also called Thunderbird SC for short. The Super Coupe
could be had with a Mazda-derived, M5R2 5-speed manual transmission
or an AOD 4-speed automatic transmission (or 4R70W for 1994/1995
models). The Thunderbird Super Coupe was Motor Trend's Car of the
Year for 1989, which Ford proudly advertised. When running at a
maximum of 5,600 rpm, the supercharger provided 12 psi of boost,
with the engine rated at 210 horsepower (160 kW)/230 horsepower
(170 kW) for 1994/1995 at 4,000 rpm and 315 lb�ft (427 N�m) of
torque at 2,600 rpm under an 8.2:1 (8.6:1 for 1994/1995)
compression ratio. Accompanying the more powerful engine, Super
Coupes were equipped with a host of unique features underlining
their higher performance demeanor relative to standard
Thunderbirds. Among these were larger, 16 x 7.0 inch alloy wheels
with high performance tires (standard Thunderbirds came with 15 x
6.0 inch steel wheels and 15 x 6.5 inch alloy wheels were
optional), a Traction-Lok limited slip differential, standard
anti-lock brakes, 4-wheel disc brakes (vented front and rear
rotors), speed-sensitive variable assist steering, lower body side
cladding, fog lights, and a stiffer suspension with adjustable
shocks supplied by Tokico.[
