    CDC "Shaker" for '99-04 4.6 GT - Owners in here . . .

    Wow, someone needs a good dose of reality here. :rlaugh: Let's spell out yet again ... CDC was selling their shaker kit for (SN95) GT's long before the 2003/4 Mach 1. The Mach 1 prototype/showcar was actually built using the CDC kit. The Mach 1 production parts were based on the CDC...

    Mustang rear brakes... Lets talk about it!

    When I did the rear brakes on my '95, even with the right tool (well, it was from Pepboys), it was very difficult to turn, and it was that way on both sides. I really don't look forward to ever having to do that again!

    "Ultra-Clear" GT Foglamps, anyone have these ??

    I am not too sure what "ultra clear" fog lights are, but I swapped out the factory fluted lens fogs, for some clear lens fogs. If curious, click on my mods link below.

    That is the way it was, when I got the WS6 option package on my Firebird.

    The interior...

    Remain "Ford green"???? :D The power window and door lock switches on even the most expensive model of the SN95 Mustangs, had no lights at all on those switches. One of my pet peeves. :nono: Does anyone know yet if the new S197 Mustangs will finally have lights in those switches?

    Pulling my preorder

    I have to agree, the 300 is a rather nice looking car. One of the few I would actually consider getting in black. In addition to the gangster look, it also reminds me of a car that would be at home in a Batman movie (which is suppose to be a positive comment).

    White Face Gauges

    I absolutely agree. The Autometer guage cluster is the only way to go. :nice:

    Motor Trend's predictions for the next gen Stang

    Well, it is a cultural-roots thing, and would be the same if he/she did come from Europe or any other non-USA place for that matter. It really doesn't matter how long he has been here, nor if he is a citizen. It is where he was during his "formative" childhood years. That, by itself, doesn't...

    Motor Trend's predictions for the next gen Stang

    An interesting side note, is that the production 2005 Mustang is actually more Asian. The head of the S197 Mustang design project, was born and raised in Vietnam. So, he actually brought to the design, his own outsider impressions of what an "American" sports car should be. :flag...

    Launch with TractionControl on or off?

    Is there really much difference with the TC off? With the TC off, yea, your tach will head to redline, and your rear wheels will spin like crazy, but you still don't go anywhere. You can't. The rear wheels have no traction to "bite" the pavement. Having the TC on or off, doesn't change...

    Launch with TractionControl on or off?

    TC is suppose to work that way on all late model Mustangs, at least according to Team Mustang as reported in the MCA's Mustang Times. They claimed that if the TC senses steering wheel position as being straight, and if starting from a dead stop, the TC allow full power to the rear wheels no...

    Launch with TractionControl on or off?

    TC isn't a separate option. It comes with ABS.

    Flat Hood

    Don't forget to add painting, and for the hood, it needs to be a very good job since it is so very visable. That could easily cost more than the hood itself.

    Pictures of 05 Interior???

    Is that a gated shifter under that rectangular boot?

    Hood scoops and side scoops ????

    Being functional and being effective are indeed two very different things. Though, effectiveness is something which could be argued about just any factory scoop even if functional. I mean, just how effective is the functional shaker scoop on the 03/04 Mach 1's? Its opening is right at one...

    Where to get IUP console trim peices.

    The "factory" IUP is simply silver paint. You might want to check out some of the aftermarket aluminum trim pieces. Here is what Ford offers...
