    Rally stripes

    My 94 GT convert is currently vibrant red and is getting painted next week. I'm gonna do the same coloir, but I was wondering if a couple of 8-12" rally stripes from bumper to bumper. I was thinking or doing them in flat black. What does everyone think? Should I do it or not? :bang:

    Lowering question

    I'm gonna lower my 94 GT convert on Monday and I had a few questions: I'm gonna lower it using the Eibach Pro-kit and I see it lowers 1.3" front and 1.4" back. My problem is I'm gonna have around 150lbs of stereo in the trunk and I don't want a saggy a$$. I was thinking, What if I use poly...

    Interior restoration

    I wan't to replace the torn and blackened cloth seats in my 94 gt convert with the factory leather covers. What kind of work am I looking at? It doesn't look like I would need a upholstry shop to do it. Just a good staple gun and some patience . Has anyone done this before? :shrug:

    Cobra brake upgrade question.

    I recently purchased the entire cobra front upgrade for my 94 GT convert. I already have slotted rear rotors and hawk pads on the back. My question is with the cobra fronts and the GTY rears jive? I'm not a leadfoot, its just the cobra upgrade kit was available for cheap so I went with it. The...

    Fickle minded AODE

    I have a 94 GT convert with an AODE. Right now I'm at 143k and occasionally the tranny likes to drop out of overdrive and back into 3rd when I'm on the highway. A few people suggested the "speed sensor" and the " gear selector". I want to start with changing out the speed sensor. Does anyone...

    Tire Size question

    I currently have a 94 GT aode convert that came with the 225/55/16's. They were replaced with 245/50/16's. Now it's time to replace the wheel/tire combo with 18" rims. I see that everyone uses 265/35/18's but a 275/35/18 would be closer to optimal as its almost the exact same circumfrence...

    Magnaflow Question

    I have a stock 94 GT aode convert and I want the exhaust note to be about twice as loud as the stock system. Will a Magnaflow catback sound louder? Or should I get the Magnapack system. I'm probably gonna leave the stock h pipe on it. Anyone with experience on this? :hail2:

    New AODE

    Does anyone here recommend the tranny's from "Performance Automatic and Transmission Center" (PATC) ? I have a stock AODE with 142k miles and it's been popping out of gear, especially overdrive, for some time. Dumping money into a 11 year old tranny sounds like a waste as opposed to simply...

    Compression Check Question

    I recently did a compression check on my bone stock 94 Gt convert aode and ended up with 125 psi plus or minus 3 psi on all 8 cylinders. The leakdown test wasn't that far off too. It looks like the valves and rings are good but my question is: Is 125 psi weak? What are they at brand new? Just...

    best place to get a new AODE

    It's now 142k later and the aode is flling apart. it drops out of OD randomly, changes gears like crap and its killing the cars performance. I'm gonna replace it with a new one with all the upgrades and a 2500 stall 12 3/4" converter. Anyone know any reputable companies to go through? I need one...

    tweecer rt

    I'm gonna upgrade to an AODE with 4r70w internals and change out my rear gears from 2.73 to 3.73's. How am I going to reprogram the computer to shift right? Would a tweecer rt be the better overall deal than reprogramming and reflashing? :shrug:

    Best price for a Tweecer rt

    Like above. Where's the best place to buy one? I'm going from a aode to a 4r70w and a 2500 stall converter. I'm also doing 3.73's out back. Thats just the tranny. Then I'm getting a new MAM and intake/injectrors. ETC, ETC, ETC. I figure being able to reprogram the computer myself instead of...

    Fuel Pump and injectors

    I'm restoring a 94 GT aode convert with 142k on the clock. I'm petty sure the fuel pump is on its way out and the injectors cant be that healthy. It pings slightly at WOT, even with 93 in it. Is a 255 lph pump overkill? its only 30-40 bucks more than a 155lph and theres no way I'm putting in...

    Crappy AODE

    Hello everyone. I already have a post about my AODE problems. I was going to try some repairs, but at 142k, I think it would be waste of money. I think I'm gonna replace it with a 4R70W wide ratio tranny with a 2500 stall 12 3/4" converter from Performance Auto and Transmission Center. Has...

    Roush wheels

    Does anyone here know why the roush performance 18 x 10" ( p/n sm03-22243-SAC Chrome) wheels won't fit a 94 mustang gt? They say they wont fit at the store selling them, but I can't see why. If you can fit a 10.5" fr500 rim out back, why wouldnt a 10" roush fit? :shrug: :damnit:

    Can it handle a supercharger?

    I currently own a 94GT aode convert with 142k on the ticker. The car was driven by my Dad for its entire life andwas never abused. I never saw the tach go above 3k. The car still has a good portion of its original power and it only sucks up about 1/2 a quart of oil between changes. It doesnt...
