That 3000 stall is really gonna suck for in town use.


EDIT: I see that you said it was a toy. So who cares about if it's gonna suck in town, you'll probably be full throttle everywhere, anyways.

 

[USAF04GTstang]

eh.....not all the time...haha. but i might put a smaller stall in it cause it is gunna be a street strip car.

 

[nibik91]

nice trade! throw some subframes on her.

 

[USAF04GTstang]

oh...shes got a lot of work coming her way. honestly...i kinda wanna get her cosmetically straight right now. i know i wanna do an outlaw hood, smoked headlights and fogs, wheels, drop it. but i do know ima cam it very soon. like i said, its already stout for the street...especially for most of the fart can ricers out here... but i wanna get the sound squared away first, then cosmetics.

 

[87-t-top-gt]

Hmm...did the girl with tats and big hips from your avatar come with it? If not good deal, if so hell of a deal

 

[87-t-top-gt]

Oh and btw..cheese graders ftw brother

 

[USAF04GTstang]

haha...i actually met her cause of my 04 gt...lol...but after it caught on fire she stuck around and we got engaged...lol... but yea...i love the taillights...i hate the lx/cobra tails on gt's. the cheese graders make the rear of this car...lol

See you're in Goldsboro... I went to school there back when the F4's were at SJ. Something like 30 years ago. Used to stomp all over town in a '67 Fastback....

 

[betke76]

[USAF04GTstang]

haha...thanks

 

[Blown88GT]

They painted the GT turbine wheels black? Just doesn't look right.

 

[Noobz347]

GF = HAWT
Car = Ok
Turbine Wheels = Teh Lose

Welcome to SN!

 

[USAF04GTstang]

yea...new wheels and hood are #'s 1&2 being replaced

 

[Gearbanger 101]

Leave the converter where it is. Anything less than 3,000-stall is a waste of money IMO. The converter I had built for my Cougar stalled at 2,800 and it barely felt any different than stock and it was making a lot more power than your Mustang. If it were me, I'd shoot for something in the 3,200-3,600 range personally. Yes, it's going to be a little bit lazier at partial throttle levels in low speed traffic, but when you stand on that loud pedal, you're going to be glad you've got it.

And I’ll assume those are 3.73 gears out back, not 3.33? And get some headlights in that baby. You can get a complete set of reproduction lights for about $100. Give the car a night and day appearance boost.

 

[USAF04GTstang]

No. The previous owner said 3.33's. And I'm Gunna get the light smoked headlights and foglights from 50resto. I'm Gunna eventually put some 3.90's in it to wake this thing up a lil. That and a cam. And them I think I'm Gunna paint it.

Girls with tats are hot.
