I have 53000 miles. I am still on the first set of brake pads with alot left. The car never stopped very well. My 5.0 stopped quicker. I got my car with 70 miles on it. I think the many someones that test drove the car burnt up the brakes before they were broken in and put a serious glaze on the...
I just got some 4.10s' put in and I think I could have went with a 4.30. Not a huge difference than my 3.55s. I drive mostly freeway miles. About 20 miles to work. I would just have to drive a little slower on the freeway. I was crusing at between 80-90 with the 3.55s. Now between 75-80. I think...
Well, it was the bearing in the slave cylinder. Going to have them change out the clutch while they are at it. I "accidentally" told them to change out the rear end gears for 4.10s. Thats my story and I'm sticking to it..
Awesome. thanks for the explaination Dan. I am quite sure what I am hearing is a bearing squeal. Sounds exactly like a worn out TOB. Either way I am going to have it checked out. On my last mustang I changed out the tranny on the floor in the garage and I will never do any tranny work on the...
Well, I have 53000 miles. No throw out bearing, huh? I dont know this car as well as I would like. It's a whole other world from my 5.0. Would it be worth it to also change out the flywheel to an aluminum one? I'm not rich but if they are already taking everything apart?
I have a 2005 mustang GT. It's a manual and I think the throw-out bearing is done for. There is a squeeling when I'm out of gear with my foot off the clutch. If I push in the clutch just a tad the sound changes or goes away for a few seconds. Its got way louder during the last day. Now its added...
I decided not to go for faster because I cant afford a supercharger and there isnt much to do other than that to make it ALOT faster. So, looking for some good alternatives. I think I am going to go for handling since stock is lackluster to say the least. I have eibach sportline springs right...
What do you guys think? $3000 to spend and cant decide what to do. I have an 05 gt manual with 3:55. 245/40/19 front, 275/35/19 rear, C&L street intake with brenspeed sct tune. I think I will also get some gears. Saving extra for a supercharger is out of the question. I really cant decide what...
Question? I have a 2005 with a manual, 3:55s, 245/40/19 front, 275/35/19 rear, c&l street intake with brenspeed sct tune and I was wondering if I would be faster than a 13.99. At my local track I have to have a helmet if I am faster.
I have Pirelli P-Zero Rossos and I love them. They stick good rain or shine. They cost like a million dollars though. Seems to be the trend with any 19" x 10" rim though.
Dude, that car is too fresh to be having any problems. Only 9000 miles on an '05? I wish. I have almost 40000 on mine. I guess anything could happen though. Are you sure its not a problem with your foot? I get about 15 MPG on my '05 stick but its totally my fault. Damn size 13 Filas...
I hear that some people get really good gas mileage, 20 to 24 ave. MPG. I range 16 to 18 with a 5 speed mostly freeway but I live in southern california so I average 30 MPH. But I also have heavier wheels and tires and drive it like I stole it...
I have 19s and can tell a difference. I got 275 35s in the back on a ten inch wide wheel. So that was some extra weight. There isnt a huge difference but I can tell that it doesnt chirp the tire as easily as it did before with the tiny wheel and tires. But that could also be because I now have...
I don't know about automatic GTs but I have an 05 manual and have raced a GTO. We only raced to about 70 MPH but his front bumper only got about 3 inches in front of mine.
