    Billet shift keys worth it?

    Hey guys, so I'm most likely going to get an astro A5 built for me shortly and one of the options I can have done are billet shift keys for 3rd and 4th gear for an extra $89. Is this a worthwhile mod to have done? I tried looking around the forums but really couldn't find any concrete info about...

    Quick questions regarding the power steering lines

    Hey guys, I recently replaced my steering rack with a whole bunch of other suspension mods and had a problem. I fired it up for the first time yesterday and noticed I had no power steering whatsoever. I look underneath the car and I see a noticeable amount of power steering fluid on the floor...

    Suspension upgrade...what bushings should I get?

    Hey guys, I'm finally replacing my stock suspension with some quality parts (H&R SS springs, Bilstein shocks/struts, MM CC plates on the way already) and now I'm looking at bushings. Problem is though, I don't know what bushings I should replace and what type of material to use. I've read...

    Questions regarding my AC and the low pressure switch

    Hey guys, little background. In the past, my car's ac was warm and that kinda went away after I added about two cans of refrigerant last year. I say kinda because the air was tolerable in warm weather but I still felt pretty miserable during the summer heat. Well recently my AC's blowing warm...

    Need some help with my smoked headlights! Pic enclosed

    Hey guys. I recently had my car painted and while it was painted, I asked if the guy painting it could toss on the new smoked headlights from BOI I bought, since the stockers were coming off anyway. So I get my car back and the smoked headlights really look great. I'm really impressed. But...

    Front speaker depth?

    Hey guys, I'm about to run an active component system in my 95 and am about to pull the trigger on some ID OEM mids. They have an overall diameter of 6.6 inches and 3.125 mounting depth. The diameter I'm not that worried because it's a little big, I can just trim to fit. The biggest area of...

    What would look better on a dark green Mustang? Clear or smoked headlights?

    Hey guys, I'll be getting my car repainted soon and I need ideas for new headlights, as my stockers are looking quite crappy. I was orginally going to go with the clear as I've seen many dark cars pull them off and they look great but then I started seeing more smoked headlights from BOI and...

    Stupid question alert: How many exahust clamps do I need?

    Hey guys, I just did my exhaust and was wondering if I need two more clamps or not. I put on BBK LT's, a Dr. Gas X pipe, and Spintech Sportsman mufflers. I'm also running tail pipes. When I did the math before, I came to the conclusion I needed 8. Now afterwards, it almost seems like I need...

    Question about motor mount location and a few other simple questions

    Hey guys, I'm installing my LT's and I need some help. For some reason, I can't easily find the motor mounts. While under the hood, I finally found something that resembles it, but I want to make sure that's it before I muck with it. I snapped a picture of one that looks like that on the other...

    What's a good store bought throw out bearing? Does one exist?

    Hey guys, I'm doing a clutch swap and I need some help. I read some threads, and I found out a lot of people who bought the King Cobra clutch, opted not to use the supplied throw out bearing and instead, get a better one from the parts store. Instead of taking the risk, unless someone can...

    Does anyone have experience with this oxygen sensor kit?

    Browsing through some forums today, I found this link from another board. Some people mention it fits the regular stock harness and when you look at what the package contains, it looks like quite a deal. http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=FMS%2DM%2D12071%2DK302&view=1&N=700+...

    Does anyone have experience with the VRS X pipe?

    Hey guys, I was basically stuck on getting the Dr. Gas X pipe but I totally forgot about this pipe. I've searched countless threads both on here, and the corral but I'm not finding out any information. The aspects of the VRS that has me really interested is the fact it looks almost exactly...

    How do you all think this exhaust will sound?

    Hey guys, I've been trying to piece out my first exhaust system and I've finally narrowed it down. Any ideas how it will sound? I tried to put emphasis on quiet idle, hardly any drone at the 3k mark, but f'in SCREAMS at WOT. -BBK 1 5/8 long tube headers -X pipe (unsure if I want Dr. Gas or...

    Why is my alternator doing this?

    Hey guys, I have something going on with my alternator that's annoying as hell. For some reason, whenever I'm idling or my rpm are less then 2.5, maybe 3k rpm, the battery gauge will drop, and if I have lights on, they will dim, indicating the battery isn't getting recharged. But whenever I...

    Is this the correct part number for an Optima battery?

    Hey guys, mine crapped out this week and I'm in need of a new one. Since the old one is toast, better upgrade to something nice, right? Now is the correct part number for our cars 34/78? And is that the same part number for both the red top AND the yellow top? Lastly, this will slide into...

    275/40's all around.....good idea or not?

    So I'm shopping for tires and would love to hear what the other fellow 94-95 owners say about this set up. I orginally was going to go with 275/40 in the back and 255/45 in the front, but since I can't rotate my tires, which will make them last a lot longer, I was thinking the same size all...

    Alternator died....what should I get for a replacement?

    My car died on the highway today due to a bad alternator so I was either thinking about getting a 130 or a 200 amp one from PA. My question is what one should I get? I know the 200 is better suited for cars with stereos and such, but exactly how much power should be one draining to require a...

    My moms 94 V6 stang keeps having a dead battery every morning frequently and I'm beginning to suspect it might be the cables, since I basically replaced everyting else. Now, I doubt it's nothing terribly difficult, but I've never done it. Can you give me some hints, tips, tricks? What are...
