HI. i am new to this site and i just bought my 1st mustang about 1 1/2 months ago to see what all the buzz are all about mustangs. I only had import cars my whole life.
(i am an asian)
and i raced lot of them and beat few mustangs.
I know that mustang can be fast if you do it right and get the right traction set up but me jumping into mustangs is really a suprise(my roommate got me into mustang about 3 months ago and i just went out and bought one.
I traded my 93 RX-7 turbo (it had blown motor but the dealer didn't know HAHA. beacuse even though rotary engine blows it still runs...shhhhh) and sold my civic hatchback to some kid in california)to get his car!!!
Anyways when i first bought this car it was a drag car. and of course i am turing it into street car. please note that this is my 1ST mustang and i will do stupid things to this car(me being an asian i am already looking for HKS and TRUST parts for my MUSTANG LOL!!they don't have any),
But it's really fast to start off with,
I am going to list everything i have done so far in a month to this car and everthing that i took out from this car in a month and i am still restoring this car currently and my parts are arriving daily.(Interior to exterior to performance parts)

I am currently working on getting 5 lug conversion set. i am not sure if i should go sn95 cobra parts or just get steeda's 5 lug conversion sets for $460.
tell me what i should do to my car and email me. i am trying to meet some cool people in here who knows alot about mustangs....KEEP IN MIND that i am doing all these by myself!!! MY OTHER ASIAN FRIENDS DO NOT KNOW HOW TO WORK ON THIS CAR(but i think it's really easy....it's a ford. everyone knows how to work on fords...don't they?!)but my roommate does know a little bit(he is from kentukey LOL)
So please let me know if you are selling cobra brakes 13inch and calipers and spindles, sn95 ball joints, rear axles, rear disc set ups. i want to get the front brakes done ASAP.
thanks and wish me luck. you can always EMAIL ME to see what part i need and i will buy it from you if i need that part and if it's in great condition. i do not buy junks!!! if you want the TOP dollars from me CLEAN IT UP AND SELL IT TO ME OR REPAINT IT AND SELL IT TO ME. i will pay top dollars for show pieces. thanks Email me @:

It doesn't matter what kind of car you drive american or import we are all car nuts and that's the beauty of it....and i am not a kid i am 30 years old and one of my good friend who is thai owns mustang service center in california and he restores old mustangs 60's. so just letting you guys know we do not hate american cars....we love it and there is nothing like it!!!
