    Argh... friend over-torqued valve cover bolts!

    Tonight my friend and I were taking a look at the fox because it's practically pissing oil. I had my dad offer some input too and all he could recommend was that I try tightening up the valve cover bolts to try to stop one of the leaks. Well, I make the horrible mistake of handing my friend...

    GAH! Fox is too loud... have until Thursday to fix it...

    So in April I picked up a noise violation ticket after only six hours of having an off-road h-pipe installed. After that, I drove carefully enough and didn't get nailed by anymore police. But I've had to put off fixing the exhaust until the last month and a half or so because I was broke...

    Need help asap... midpipe not sealing against headers

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to "bridge the gap"? I took it to an exhaust shop today to have my bassani x-pipe put on because the pipes going to the headers wouldn't reach on the left side once they went through the hangers... So I'm waiting for the guy to start it up, and he does...

    4.56 gears?

    I've read from a few people that there is no speedo gear for 4.56 gears? So for those who run them, how do you compensate for the errors in the speedo? Do you run an aftermarket one, or is there no way to make up for it? Also, are the 4.56s too high for what will soon become my toy car. I'm...

    Advice/Questions on purchasing a 96-98 Cobra

    How are the 96-98 cobras? I'm considering buying one soon, but I see A LOT of them for sale, and quite a few around my town that regularly change hands pretty quickly, so I was wondering if there was a reason for it. How does a stock one feel, power-wise? I'm sure it would be a bit of a step...

    Used my mustang for some good tonight...

    So my friend and I were driving down this long street at about midnight tonight, and we see two vehicles about halfway down the hill, and one is almost sidways next to the other one. We instantly thought they had an accident, so I drive slowly towards them. As we get near, I see that there's an...

    WTF does my gas mileage suck so much?

    Mods are in sig. Right now, I'm getting about 8 MPG, or about 60 miles to half a tank before I get the gas light back on again. I did plugs and wires, but this is what I'm figuring I can still try. - Oxygen sensors - Gas Cap (Mine feels really loose and I read a little while ago in a...

    Ricer Math... *shakes head*

    So there was this kid bitching today about how his new 80-dollar shift knob for his '05 Sentra didn't fit. Then he asked me how much HP my car was pushing. I just shrugged, saying, "I don't know, never had it dyno'ed - between 280-320 RWHP depending on loss I guess." Then he goes on this...

    Anyone ever see the Juggernaut video? *NSFW*

    There's this video that's been going around the internet for awhile now. These guys dubbed voices over an old X-Men cartoon with some of the most hilarious stuff I've ever heard. And they did a great job too. :D It's EXTREMELY vulgar, so don't crank the volume with the children in the...

    Anyone got Cobra R 2000 Hood pics?

    I'm thinking about going with the Boss Inc. Cobra R 2000 hood, and I was wondering if anyone had saved any pics of that hood. I'm also trying to figure out what would look better in that hood on a GT mustang - 2.5 inch or 3 inch? Anyone want to help me out? Please? :D

    Any other Southern California guys out there?

    I see on average, a new 5.0 face in Valencia (my town) every week, and I just keep wondering where they come from, and if anyone from Stangnet is driving them. So how about it? How many other SoCal guys we got here?

    Some pic whoring on a rainy day...

    I bought the car in the end of January, but I haven't really had time to get these pics onto this computer to post it. Not only that, but these are pics that the previous owner took. I'm looking to take some myself once I find the digital camera. The mod list is as below: Modifications...

    Best way to break in a clutch?

    Well, I'm going to go pick up my car today after the clutch finally gave up (everything down there was wasted). I was just wondering what you all do to break in a new clutch? Anything I can't do with it besides dropping the clutch? Can I still hammer the car down roads without any problems...

    Think I ****ed up my stang tonight :(

    I was with a few friends earlier and I decided that we were going to go do a burnout since it was 1 in the morning and no one would be up by the industrial buildings. Basically started cranking it up, and just absolutely peeled rubber for at least 50 feet. Anyway, after I finished and was...

    O/R H-Pipe Install

    Just decided today that I was going to attempt to install my O/R H-pipe cause it's been sitting on my garage floor for a few weeks. I've got the back unbolted, but I'm having a problem with the mid-section near the cats. There's this metal tube that stretches right from inbetween the small...

    Stang broke down today... what happened?

    Damn, this couldn't have come at a worse time... I was driving this morning and when I was pulling out of the driveway this morning, I noticed that the car felt REALLY sluggish. It felt like it was engine braking on me. I got to the top of a hill about 3 minutes later and started to go...

    What would you consider to be the "Swiss Army Setup" of Mustang Suspension?

    Let's say that you were putting down over 500 RWHP, and you wanted a suspension that hooked with no problems. You also wanted a setup that cornered pretty well. Money is not an issue. What would you do? Can it be done?

    Would I benefit from a set of LTs?

    Just like the title. I picked up this 88 last weekend, and I was thinking with the power it was making, I could gain some by switching to longtubes? I was thinking that at least. I've had a few different people tell me though that I'll actually lose power by switching out the shorties. What's...

    WTF is up with my car? (Long)

    Had a couple problems pop up in the last couple days that really makes me wonder if someone's messing with my car. I'll do this in timeline form, haha. Three days ago - I brought her up to about 4,200 RPMS going down a hill, and watched as my gas gauge takes itself from half a tank and...
