    2005 Mustang Cuts Out During Starting

    This is my wife's 05 Saleen 3v that I drive often. Every other day I will go to start it, and it will crank like normal but only turn over a few times before just stopping. I thought at first I just wasn't used to the way Fords start (holding the key down a little longer) but now I am certain...

    90k mile Fox as a Daily Driver?

    I don't think I can get this car right now. Some unexpected bills and other complications have come up. I'll have to drive my Camaro with bad rings as long as I can and save up. I'll get a newer car in about a year, but I think sooner or later I'm going to need a fox. I'll be back.

    90k mile Fox as a Daily Driver?

    Waiting to hear back from the seller, I'll be with family all day today, told him tomorrow was good for me. I emailed him but will call him tomorrow for a drive. Thank you for the responses.

    90k mile Fox as a Daily Driver?

    It would appear this one is good being 100% stock, but they could have reinstalled stock parts. One thing that worries me is the automatic, like 91twilight said. I wish it was a stick, I haven't had a stick car yet, but I seem to have an auto curse, all the cars I ever find turn out to be autos...

    90k mile Fox as a Daily Driver?

    I'm looking for a semi cheap daily driver and found an all stock 1990 Mustang GT auto with 90,000 miles for 2900. Looks pretty decent in pics, going to look at it this weekend hopefully. My current car is a 94 Camaro z28 that I had a lot of trouble with after a bad rebuild and I'm looking to...

    Faint Paint Shaker Sound at Low rpm

    After the car has been driven a while, like 10-20 minutes on the freeway and you come to some real low speed driving like around parking lots and stop signs, there is a new noise that sounds a lot like a paint shaker if you've ever heard that before. It seems to be coming from the passenger...

    Test drove a 370z and 05 Stang!!!

    Well a 2010 Mustang with the Track Pack would have been a better comparison, or a 350z but I realize that you can't test drive any car you want....just sayin. The Saleen is a nicely set up car, look at it's specs and go from there. Sway bars, shocks, etc. Lots of companies - Racecraft...

    Removing the Red Super Strenght 3M Tape

    I would let a professional handle the eraser wheel, especially considering your last post. It can go through the paint easily if you're not careful. I wouldn't have the patience to use just chemicals and elbow grease.

    Need Mellow, Least Drone Mufflers

    I considered resonators, but I don't feel like I'm cutting it up too bad, just a muffler swap. She and I want something slightly different sounding anyhow, instead of just a low frequency hum that a lot of stock 05+ mustangs have. Unfortunately there are zero soundclips of the Thrush turbo...

    Need Mellow, Least Drone Mufflers

    Good recommendations, thanks guys.....I just bought a pair of Thrush turbo mufflers for $20 each! If those don't work out I'll try the GTA or bullitts. I'll be back with a sound clip in a few weeks when we get them installed....not sure how much it'll be, maybe $60-$100 labor.

    Need Mellow, Least Drone Mufflers

    I am now reconsidering flowtech afterburners (cheap) from things I have dug up, no sound clips though, and also summit turbo mufflers (cheaper!).

    Need Mellow, Least Drone Mufflers

    Thanks for the replies. Like I said, her ears are sensitive. After many hours of reading about drone on 05+ mustangs and different loudnesses of mufflers.....I'm still not exactly sure what to get. I kind of have it narrowed down to either Edelbrock SDT (Sound Deflection Technology) mufflers or...

    Need Mellow, Least Drone Mufflers

    My girlfriend has an 05 saleen 3v with the exhaust rattle. I plugged the vacuum to keep the valve open, but when I do that it's too loud for her, she has semi-sensitive ears. The other problem is the occasional low frequency drone which I personally could live with, but even I must admit it is...
