    Camber Adjustments

    Last weekend I finished up my spring install, which lowered the car approx 1" all around. Knowing I needed an allignment, I took my car to the same shop that alligned my slammed 00'Gt twice equipped with the stock CC plates; the GT was brought to something like -1.1 & -1.3. So after being...

    Do you have a clutch freeplay correction kit?

    My TOB is squeaking.. I've tried engaging the factory quadrant a tooth higher, and although that cures my idle chirp it eventually causes a more rapid chirp while driving. Before I swap out the clutch entirely, I would like to try LDC's freeplay correction kit on my factory setup. The ad says...

    Just how loud is your Tri-Ax?

    My Tri-Ax is pretty noisy! Throughout all the gears, I can hear the "whirring" of the transmission - especially as the RPM's climb. Just now on the highway in 4th gear, I had an occasional loud scratching sound. I know the Tri-Ax is the louder of the bunch, but I've mounted the stock shift...

    Looks like I'm in the minority - MGW shifter isn't for me

    After rolling around with the MGW shifter for a couple days, I yanked it. Though the shifts are extremely short and precise, I found it took way too much effort to put the lever in gear, and the handle is too short for my taste (orange handle). I've read numerous times that the shifter will...

    Got 32v? I got an exhaust question.

    With the recent purchase of a stock Mach 1, I'm now looking to put some aftermarket mufflers on it.. I have Borla XR1's sitting in the garage that I took off the Gt awhile back, but do straight-through mufflers take away from the "gurgle" exhaust note that makes the 32v worth owning? :drool...

    Help with quieting down my exhaust

    A little history: When bought my car I installed the flowmaster 40 series mufflers (not deltaflow). After driving with these mufflers for a couple months, I decided they were too loud, and droned excessively for my taste. I then purchased borla XR1's hoping for a unique & quiet sound. Nope...

    Does this quote sound right to you?!

    I have a creak in my steering, specifically when I back up, and start moving forward turning to the right. After that initial sound, it never happens again until I let the car cool off. I suspect its my ball joints, and I've been quoted $300 for the install by 3 different shops in my area -...

    00' - 01' Mach stereo swap - Is it possible?

    Is it possible to change out the stock Mach 460 radio and cd player for the 01 model 6 disc changer? Obviously I'd have to change out the console too, but would this work?

    Alternator? HELP!

    Day 1: So I picked up my car on Wednesday from the body shop.. after driving the car a couple miles, the radio first goes out, then the gauges all drop to zero, then the car fights to stay alive, and dies. My attempts to restart the car fail. I then went and picked up a new battery, installed...

    99-01 Cobra Owners *Help Needed!

    I don't hear anyone trying this, so I have to ask: Has anyone tried mounting the chin spoiler from the 03/04 Cobra bumper onto the 99/01 bumper?.. did it mount flush without much modification? Pics would be great.

    Calling all Cobra owners! Need your opinions!

    I'm on the verge of trading my 2000 Gt for a 1998 Cobra. I'm a bit worried about the reliability of the Cobra's. The Gt has been a solid car for the length of ownership (about 4 years now), and I hope making a trade like this won't be a step backwards. So I suppose my questions to you guys are...

    Anyone know much about gauge clusters?

    I'm thinking about swapping an 03 Cobra gauge cluster into my GT. I'm wondering if I can simply put my stock circuit board into the Cobra cluster and be rolling again. Assuming the swap works, I'm thinking the stock circuit board will make my speedo off since the Cobra cluster goes up to...

    Racing Seat Installation

    I am thinking of getting these seats to replace my stockers since my drivers seat is bending outwards :notnice: . I was thinking of getting these seats since they still have the leather look, and come in tan to match my interior. Problem though, is how can I successfully mount these in? I was...

    Plastic Intake Durability

    I've being seeing posts lately of people who have been having issues with the plastic lower intake cracking on the 96+ GT's. I have about 30k on my car now, and am starting to wonder if this issue is a matter of WHEN, not IF. It seems the newer GT's are come w/ a aluminum crossover to prevent...

    *4.10's and the highway*

    How are the 4.10's on the highway after the initial smiles wear off? I don't often take long trips in my car, but I greatly enjoy driving at 80mph anytime I hit the highway. I have found the rpm's w/ 4.10's is 2952 at 80mph, which seems a bit high to me. I have been putting my car in 4th on...

    C&L Inlet Tube

    I've had this part on my car for at least a year now, but I now think I am missing something. I have the tube bolted on the throttle body without any kind of spacer, but apparently there is a spacer that goes on the TB before the hose attaches. Did everyone else get this piece? I always...

    Accufab Plenum: 65mm vs 70mm Throttle

    For those of us following the plenum wars: By now we have all seen the dyno results from mustang depot that state 70-75mm throttle bodies basically outflow the stock 65mm T-Body and produce a higher torque curve and hp ratings. Today I finally ripped off the 65mm and put on a 70mm T-body. I...

    Everyone with aftermarket plenums come in!

    Have this Accufab plenum sitting around, and today took it out to compare w/ the stocker. There is a nipple on the stocker that does not appear on this Accufab version. Am I suppost to remove the nipple from the stock piece and put it into the Accufab, or am I missing something? I took a pic of...

    Coolant Question

    It's about time I change the coolant... The radiator has no cap, so once I have emptied the system do I have to keep filling the overflow container until full?
