    Two simple questions...

    First, how does the throttle cable attach to the throttle body? I think I see where it connects to it, but I don't want to break it trying to force it in there in some weird way. Second, On the drivers side of the car, coming off the main wire harness theres a little wire with a black boot on...

    Aftermarket Fuel Rails?

    The stock fuel rail on my 96' GT is kind of messed up, so i'm going to just replace it. I highly doubt I can get one from ford for any decent amount, so I was wondering about aftermarket replacements. I've found these two high flow ones, but I was wondering if putting them on a mostly stock...

    96' GT Fuel Rail Question...

    I was putting back on the little brass fitting that plugs the test port (the whole thing, not just the little black cap) back on the fuel rail, when it decided to break in half. So now half of the fitting is inside the rail, and I can't get it out. I wanted to take the rail out so I could deal...

    Anyone have lowering springs with stock shocks?

    I want to get new springs/shocks since i've got 18" cobra r's and they give me crazy wheel gap but i'm in school now so not much cash flow. Just wondering if anyone has the stock shocks, how much of a drop you have, and if there were any problems with them? Thanks.

    Which is the ABS fuse? 96GT...

    Just wondering on my 96GT which fuse is for the ABS since I don't have an owners manual and ford decided to be retarded and not put them under the covers like everyone else.

    Questions for guys with 96-98GT's and nitrous...

    My friend has a spare nitrous kit he said we could put on my car, and i'm looking to run something on the safer side like a 75shot. Anyways, i'm just wondering what other people with 96-98GT's were running 1/8th and 1/4 mile time-wise with a 75 shot or 100 shot, and if you've had any problems...

    Bolt on header stripped...

    The bolt on the header on the passenger side that the h-pipe goes on has stripped. How would I go about getting that off? It seems like its not meant to come out since you cant reach the back of it.

    Any guesses on 1/8 mile track times?

    I've got a 96' GT 5spd with K&N intake, o/r h-pipe (leaking at the headers currently) flowmaster catback and 18" cobra r-'s with 245/40 toyo proxes on them. 2nd gear syncro is kinda bad so i usually take a bit of time shifting. Anyways, any guesses before I get back? Anyone with similar mods run...

    ABS Kicking in when it shouldn't be?

    I had 18" Cobra-R's on my 96' GT since I got it, and i've got a set of stock wheels that I went to put on so I could do some burnouts and have some fun before I sold them. So I put 3 of the wheels on when on the last one, one of the studs twists right in half. I replaced the stud (it was on the...

    Best replacement fuel pump? (only lightly modded car)

    I'm not looking for any super high flow pumps or anything, just a good stock replacement. Any suggestions for ones that are better quality than others? My pump is getting really loud and its probably on its way out.

    Jerky car when off throttle....

    I've got a 96GT, and ever since I bought it, it's been very unsmooth and jerky when I let off the throttle and coast in gear. It feels almost like i'm in the wrong gear and its about to start bucking worse but it never does. Another problem i'm having is the car taking a bit to start up when...

    What color coolant?

    I've got a 96GT that a coolant line back by the throttle body just exploded on, coolant everywhere, but it was orange. I read somewhere that orange wasn't what they even use and it was just the standard green. I'm going to flush it all out since I had to mix some green coolant and lots of water...

    How much $$ for tranny rebuild?

    I've got a 96' GT and it seems like the transmission grinds when I floor it in low rpms in 3rd or 4th gear. I'm not talking about extremely low rpms, i'm talking acceptable areas. Also I think my 2nd gear syncro is on its way out since it grinds sometimes going into 2nd. Lastly, sometimes it...

    Removing the H-pipe...

    So I get under my car to get off my stock h-pipe, and I can't for the life of me see how to get the bolts off the front where it meets the headers. I can see the bolts, but I can't fit anything i've got even close to a spot that could get the bolts out. The rear ones are cake, but it looks like...

    I'm in need of some rear tires for my 18" Cobra R wheels on my 96 GT. I like traction in a straight line and around turns but i'm on sort of a low budget. Anyone have some suggestions for some good tires on a budget for 18" wheels?
