This is my 5th mustang ive owned and I like this combo I have now the best. Offroad X and flowmasters. I think with the X the sound is more throaty. I do love the sound of flows with an H too though. You really cant go wrong with either. When you look up videos on youtube make sure to listen...

I noticed after finally bleeding my brakes that the lug nuts are really wearing on the wheel. When I tighten the lug nuts some of them cause metal shavings to come off the wheel. The holes where the studs come through is just barely smaller then the diameter of the lug nut. Is this normal for...

Can someone tell me exactly how to use the speed bleeders? As if I were a 5 year old lol.

I ordered some russel speed bleeders from summit part no. 639590 I dont think this is the right one though cause it seems to short and narrow. Im not really sure. I took the original bleeder screw out. the threads on the speed bleeder do match the threads on the caliper but just a tad...

Im no expert but over the last few days ive been screwing around with my rear brakes too. Maybe im missing something but i dont think u need to undo that bolt to change just the pads. All you need to do is take off 2 bolts, one on top and the other on bottom. Mine is a 98 not sure if there are...

I finally got the piston down far enough to slide over the brakes, but its really tight. I cant get the rotor to turn by hand its so tight. I have to loosen the caliper bolts to be able to turn it. If I keep them tight will the caliper and piston sort of align themselves? Im worried that the...

Got e brake loose. Decided to change rear brakes while everything was off and now I cant get the passenger side piston to go in. I bought that tool and it worked for driver side but its starting to strip out. Then i turned it with some channel lock plyers and I can get it to turn but it wont...

Ok got the caliper off, now i need to compress that piston. I'll prob just get the tool tomorrow, but that doesnt solve my e brake being locked on. How do I disengage it. Do I do anything with the spring? I tried prying on the bracket that holds the end of the cable, but it wouldnt budge...

how do i retract the piston

I drove to the store and set the e brake which i pulled pretty hard on accident(my other car you have to pull pretty hard). Got back in car to leave and I could tell one of my brakes was locked up. Drove about 3 miles home and the driver rear was real hot, took wheel off and removed two...

do you have any trouble getting the car up those ramps? Do you have a manual? Those ramps are a PITA to get up, one time when i didnt have anyone helping I had to use a mirror against the wall to tell how far up I needed to go. They also want to slide on smooth concrete. How do you guys make...

I paid 5400 which for around st. louis I think was good. There is a lot of junk on craigslist for 3-4k. I just found out that apparently torch red and colorado red are the same:shrug: Yeah the mod bug is already getting to me. I need gears and a tune, but then thought might as well rebulid...

So I finally picked up another mustang. It had been about 1.5 years since I sold my Mach 1 to buy my house. Now that im somewhat settled in, I decided to get another stang. Its a 98 gt with the powertrain out of an 02. It is a 5 speed but used to be an auto. The guy I bought it from was a...

Im not that worried about the 1/4 time, Im wondering if with those mods that time with slicks seems alright. It has never been tuned or dynoed. Could 18 passes at the track hurt the motor with no tune? Im new to 5.0, but I know u need a tune after cam install on 2V.

Im ready to buy a mustang only have 3-5k to spend. I would prefer a car with a lot of the maintenance already done and some decent power. I emailed the owner and he said it went 12.8 @ 110mph on slicks. Does this seem like a good buy if i can get him down closer to 4k. Does that ET seem...

My guess would be 240 ish. Those shorty headers dont do much

I traded my Gt to go with a Mach in April. I payed 18500 with 22k on the clock. Any cobras around here(stl area) were 24-28k most with more than 40k miles. I think thats a good deal if you can talk them down just a bit more

Man does that suck. I can just picture a group of jackass's standing around your car, keying the **** out of it and then laughing. You just cant win. If you park up close you will get door dings. If you park way out, your to far from the f'n POS cameras. Sometimes when I get out of the car...

I always here the S197 crowd getting the Bamachips tune. Has anyone with a Mach 1 ever gotten a tune from Bamachips? Did you feel much of a SOTP improvement? How about dyno numbers afterwards? I dont have a tuner close to me, so im looking for a good custom tune without getting on the dyno...

What were your 60ft. times?
