    I miss my Mustang :(

    Nearly a pointless thread here. Kind of a vent, but also a good warning to those of you thinking about selling. A little background. Back in 2005, I was working PT at a local Lincoln-Mercury dealer my senior year in high school. Shortly before I graduated, there was a 2000 Performance Red...

    I'm Bored with Mustangs...

    I've been caring about mine less and less myself. I love it when I'm in the mood for it, but at times it feels like a chore to drive. I jump in relatively new cars all day long at work, and it would be a nice change. Don't get me wrong, I love my car. But I do want something more refined...

    Pulled over again!!!

    Stafford county here. Been running an o/r pipe since 2006, and windows are tinted 35% all around. I drive modest, and don't get any attention. Everyone has mentioned strict VA laws, yet I haven't been pulled in VA in 6 years. Driving through baltimore on the other hand, I got 2 tickets in...

    Anyone have access to Alldata? Need help PLEASE!!!!

    I'd have to check it at work tomorrow, but I can almost GUARANTEE the ext. warranty co is going by FORD warranty time. Factory warranty pays LESS time than standard book time. Alldata does in fact list both standard book time & factory warranty time.

    mach 1 seats for $450??

    Get them without question! I bought just the fronts for $400 for mine. Made a world of difference, corner carving and support. The lumbar support that my stock GT's lacked helped big time on long trips. I no longer get back aches. Lot's more fun in the turns too now that I stay in one place.

    Will 4.10's give a little more pull in 3rd and 4th gear??

    EVERY gear pulls harder! Even 5th on the highway is sooo much better. After riding around with them for a year and a half, there is no way I could go back to the stock gears. I have seen 24-25mpg with the 4.10's, babying the hell out of it driving 55-60mph for extended periods. Overall, the...

    cobra brake kit

    I pieced all my crap together from various places. Ended up with 10th anniv cobra calipers front & rear, rear install kit w/ factory cobra rotors, cheap rotors for the front (for now) and SS braided front brake hoses. My result was a solid pedal with good feel, and a HUGE increase in...

    2011 Stang Review!!!

    Awesome numbers. If only they could make the rear end of that car not look so hideous I'd probably buy one. They did everything else right, except the back. But thats just me.

    Worried about my 04 Cobra

    Can't remember where I saw it, but somewhere out there is an 03 cobra with over 200k and factory bottom end. It's a hand built motor, with full factory forged rotating assembly. The motor will last. The 4.6 has been around for a long time, and has proven over and over its well engineered. I...

    2000 Mustang GT Sct parameters

    FP duty cycle is a number in reference in terms to 100%. INJ pressure drop - not too sure on this one. But I think it's safe to say it has to do with some kind of fuel pressure drop at the rail or injectors. LT fuel trims are the ECM's learning curves so to speak. It's the automatic fuel...

    Please opine about the shaker hood system

    It seems the discussion has got way off topic. The OP CLEARLY stated he didn't give a rats *** about any power increase. He wants something more "aggressive". If you have the money to drop on one, I'd say go for it. You'll spend 400 - 500 anyway for a quality hood (non-shaker) anyway. It...

    Please help me ... someone whose smart with tire sizes.. your help will finalize my..

    What a waste that 315 is on a 8" rim. Wide tires do look good, but IMO a 295 or 315 is more than enough. With a good suspension, a 275 should have no issues sticking with moderate power. Purely from an aesthetic standpoint, a 315 to a 335 probably isn't worth it.

    Help locating a battery drain

    In theory, the headunit would be the MOST likely cause. The radio will always pull some kind of draw due to the clock anyway. If it were me I'd put a radio in it. I'd like to have an aux/ipod hookup anyway.

    T56 vs 3650 gear ratios ?

    D&D has the T56 upgrade kits for the mustang. Includes T56 (optional viper spec with .50 6th), crossmember and shorter driveshaft. If I was gonna pick one up I'd get the viper spec. Keep my 4.10's AND cruise on the highway at low RPM. Plus the torque rating is much higher. Doing the swap...

    1996 Saleen #277

    If I was gonna drop a bunch of money on a saleen it would have to be a 99 S351. Those are straight badass.

    Transmission Problems, Moved over From Talk.

    That has clutch written all over it. Could even have something to do with the adjustment; worth the check. I wouldn't tear into the trans until the clutch is replaced. Your clutch is cable BTW.

    Take your guess...finally going to track

    I think you could hit 11's if you get it to hook up real good. But many times I've watched guys with blowers run mid-high 12's on a real good track at nearly sea level because they cant drive. Then again, I suck at these guessing games. But if 300rwhp cars can run mid-high 12's, you should be...
