I swapped the instrument cluster on my 2011 Mustang GT 6MT and now the car won't start. The new cluster powers up, but the car will not start. I thought the whole issue with PATs and instrument clusters was an earlier generation mustang issue, not the 2011+? Anyway to make this work without...

My clutch blew at my first time out at the track this past weekend, and my mechanic said that I may need a new flywheel because of the fact that the clutch smoked. I was hoping to simply get it machined but he said it may need to be replaced after all that heat. The car only has 50k miles on it...

I installed an Alpine IDA-X001 headunit with the Metra 70-5510 into my 2000 GT with the stock Mach460 amps/speakers. The volume has decreased significantly compared to the OEM mach460 headunit. I suspect there is a voltage issue (the Alpine headunit uses 2v preouts). Has anyone had this issue...

locally, people want $300 for a chin spoiler, and I am not about to pay that. shipping from the US to canada also kills any online deals. Has anyone here made their own chin spoiler for the 03/04 cobra bumper? People with other models of car use the Home Depot Garage door seal...

Nice weather this weekend, so I managed to claybar and wax the car... I really need an orbital random buffer. Also got a new camera and wanted to try it out, so I decided to shoot at Queens Park in Toronto. Still have no real idea how to use it, so I kept it in auto mode for the most part...

I went to install my QA1 adjustable rear shocks today, and noticed there was no dust cover protecting the shaft. I tried to remove the covers from the OEM shocks, but couldn't. Are there any aftermarket options to protect the shafts of these shocks? I do not want debris to damage and reduce the...

Has anyone tried to install 94-98 sail panels on a 99-04? The reason I ask is that they look like they "may" fit, and have the nice angled window cutout like the Bullitt and Mach 1.

I've been doing some searching on the forums, and cannot seem to find a conclusive answer as to what the best transmission fluid is for the T-45 trans (Specifically for the 99-00 GT cars). The options I am considering are: Amsoil ATF Amsoil Synchromesh GM Synchromesh The Amsoil...

I recently finished installing the front H&R SS springs with both the top and bottom isolators on the front of my 2000 GT with Strange Engineering struts (I still have to swap my rear eibachs out for the H&R SS springs). I did not install my Steeda 3 bolt caster/camber plates, because I was...

Is anyone here using an aftermarket 03/04 aftermarket hood on their non-cobra mustang? how is the fit? any drawbacks? can I simply transfer the locking mechanism from a stock GT hood, as well as the under-side fire shield to the cobra hood? do the OEM scoops fit these hoods just fine? Thanks

Hey All: I picked up a set of Strange Engineering adjustable front struts, and QA1 adjustable rear shocks for my '00 GT. I am being told on another forum that these struts and shocks are designed for dragstrip use, and not so much for good handling on the street. Is this true? If so, I am...

I purchased a 9007 high/low (xenon low beam, halogen high beam) kit from ebay, and they sent me 9004 bulbs, which they say fit exactly the same and work the same. Is this true? Anyhow, I am having issues, as the day time running lamp circuit isn't powering the halogen high beam, and rather...

I recently purchased some Strange Engineering front struts for my 2000 GT, and was told on another forum that these struts are designed for drag racing strip use, and not so much for street handling. Apparently they aren't any better than the stock struts for the street, is this true? I am...

Hey All, Looking at replacing my thowout bearing, and figured I would do the whole clutch whiles in there. That said, are there any good clutch kits to look at for a 2000 GT with just normal bolt-ons? Also, are the king cobra clutch kits, that are being sold for $130 US + shipping on ebay...

Guys, I recently purchased a 2000 Mustang GT 5spd, and had a few questions. 1) How much oil does it need? I am reading conflicting stories about earlier models (99-00) needing 4.7L, and later models (01-04) needing 5.7L - can anyone confirm for the 2000 model? 2) How to bleed the brakes...

I noticed the speedometer needle bouncing when I come to a stop, and going into neutral. It jumps from zero to random values. I did some searching and some have suggested that it may be a broken cluster (everything else seems to be working), and also a bad cable (that it may need to be greased)...

Hey all, So I picked up the mustang today, and overall I am very happy with it. However after some time on the highway, I am hearing a clunking/knocking coming from the middle or rear end, underneath the car, with the clutch engaged whiles slowly going in reverse, or going forward slowly, and...

anyone have any pics of some bright atlantic blue 99-04's with mods that they would like to share? thanks!

Hey all, I have been keeping my eye on new edge 99-04 GT 5-speed mustangs for a while now. I am still a complete newbie to the mustang scene, but would like to know any tips when looking at these cars? any common known problems? anything to watch out for? I am trying to aim for a car with...

Is anyone here riding on the Canuck Motorsport Springs for a 99-04 V8 coupe? The price seems very tempting. I know in the maxima club, many guys have gone with CMS with no regrets, citing that they were very similar to the Eibach Prokit. I am looking for a 2" drop (something lower than Eibach)...
