    1999 Mustang VIN Location

    I'm in the process of (attempting) to give my '99 Mustang to my cousin. Unfortunately, she lives in PA and this is causing some issues. The car is currently in NJ, but it is not registered, inspected, or insured. So I sent her the title so she could take care of the registration and such...

    Evap Leak? Not my week for car repair.

    Well not only am I getting a busted cat replaced that's gonna put a dent in my wallet, but my car is also putting out a code for an evap leak. The code popped up last week and my mechanic replaced the gas cap, hoping it was a simple problem because he felt the gas cap was a little loose...

    Busted My Cat - What to Replace With?

    I don't know how I did it, but I busted my drivers side cat. I noticed a rattling noise, and yesterday I knocked on the cat and it rattled like a can full of rocks and the heat shield seems pretty solidly in place, so it seems like the guts cracked (the passenger side cat is still fine). The...

    Stock Cat Busted - What to replace with?

    Sorry to invade the 4.6L forums again, but no one posts in the 3.6L forums anymore, and when they do, they don't generally know too much it seems. I don't know how I did it, but I busted my drivers side cat. I noticed a rattling noise, and yesterday I knocked on the cat and it rattled like a...

    Uneven Rear Brake Wear

    Sorry to invade, but no one seems to look at the V6 forums anymore, so I'll steal some expertise from you guys. Brakes are brakes :) Went to change my rear brakes yesterday, and two of the 8 brake pad clips were broken, so I had to leave it up overnight till I can get some new clips. Because...

    Uneven Brake Wear

    Ok, went to change my brakes today, and two of the 8 brake pad clips were broken, so I had to leave it up overnight till I can get some new clips. Because of the delay, I was looking at the old pads, and noticed that the inside drivers side pad was noticeably more worn than the outer pad. Not...

    First ticket in the stang :(

    Well, it took about six months, and at least I was smart enough to do it out of state so only 2 points get brought over to NJ instead of the 5 I would have gotten here. I was going between Cranberry, PA and Butler, PA at a paintball tournament Friday, and just me in the first in the car so I...

    Convertible Top Question

    Ok, for some reason the vinyl top overhangs a little more than it should on the passenger side, enough so that the passenger door window can catch on the vinyl. I was thinking, if you opened the top 6-8 inches to loosen the tautness of the vinyl, you could probably just pull it back across a...

    Auto Trans Shifter Problem (gets stuck in park)

    Like the title says. Then I put the car in park, it gets stuck. You push the button, and nothing happens. Its still locked in park. After a while of trying, it'll finally release. The other gears don't stick. Hopefully its just something wrong with the button *prays* and not anything...

    Exhaust Price Estimating

    Ok, I'm trying to figure out how much it would cost to go to a true dual exhaust AND making sure it'll fit, and I figure someone here should have an idea :) I figure headers can be bought for $300ish. Is it really worth getting them coated? I've heard around $150 for the coating. I realize...

    Air Box Question

    Will the air box from a '03 GT fit a '99 V6? They look fairly similar, but I have a strong suspicion the GT one is larger. I've never gotten a chance to compare them side by side, but common sense is ruling against the idea. But, if they ARE compatable, that'd be cool, even if it is a long...

    Wind + Convertible Top

    Heya, new mustang owner here :) Quick question, and yes, I tried a search first :) Is there any danger of roof damage to my convertible top at high speed? And no, I'm not someone who flies around at 100+ mph, but its just something I've been curious about. I notice if I open a window on...
