    Hood pins? Should I do it?

    I love hood pins. But I dont think they look good on a stock mustang. I think with a good aftermarket hood and maybe some good wheels and other dress up parts they look great. I dont know if you are looking at hoods or anything, they get pricey. But IMO they just seem out of place on an...

    Car dies when cold engine comes to a stop

    Im not quite sure how to effectively describe it but my car occasionally dies when coming to a stop. This has only happened when the engine is cold. After taking it out of 1st to come to a stop sign or light, the RPM's will slowly drop to around 2-300 and sometimes they jump back up to 7-800...

    Building audio system on a budget.

    I could give up most of my trunk if I had too. I could go up to 400 or so and spend maybe 150 on a sub and 250 on a decent amp? Im not including install, custom box or anything in that 3-400.

    Building audio system on a budget.

    I just bought an Alpine CDA-9855, mostly for its iPod Ai-Net accessory. Im looking to spend about 300 on a great 12" sub and amp (not including custom box). Im not looking for anything super rediculous, just great sound and an amp that will be only running the sub, not the speakers. Any...

    Look at this used 05 ad. Best deal ever!

    Definitely not my car. I would never buy a new car just to turn around and sell it. Looks like the owner of this car didnt do his homework and ended up not liking the car. Although, if I foudn out my mustang had an I4 in it, I would sell it too :D

    Look at this used 05 ad. Best deal ever!

    25k for a used, 11,300 mile 2.0L I4 DOHC engine. There is only 1 2.0l I4 DOHC ever made, better swoop on this one while you can, surely a colelctors item someday...

    Ipod sound clear?

    Ive tried teh Fm transmitter and it worked... ok. It was pretty good but had some FM static. I have just boughten the Alpine CDA-9855 and I will be purchasing the Alpine iPod controller adapter to hook up to it. It sounds great, not only is it directly ocnnected to your HU, but you can...

    Best way to hook up an Ipod

    I just bought a new alpine CDA-9855 HU which can use the alpine iPod adapter which lets you hook up, and charge your ipod while controlling it through your HU. Pretty slick and I cant wait to get it installed.

    Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter

    Cuz most people modify their cars to go fast, most people prefer to go fast in a 5-spd, most people prefer a 5-spd with quicker shifts to make them go faster. I test drove a 02' GT that had one and it was a blast to drive. it'll be my next mod for sure.

    If your under 20, forget getting a 2005 Mustang, even a V6 unless your rich.....

    5800? that doesnt sound right. Thats almost 1000 bucks a month....INSANE! Im not doubting that was your quote, but I would have to assume it was a typo.

    2005 Mustang GT with 20" rims.

    I agree...those dont look like 20's. anything bigger then an 18" on smaller cars like this look VERY bad. I would think with 20's the car wouldnt even really need to be lowered, it would look even more like a 4x4. I like the look of those though if hey are indeed 20". Does it say anywhere...

    Roush 2005

    Well, if that is indeed what Roush is putting out this year, lets hope its the stage 3 body kit. I always liked teh stage 1 and 2 kits better anyway. Of course, this is assuming they stay with the 3 stage set up they have now.

    Question: What Kind Of Gas Do You Put In Your Pony?... Does It Matter?

    so I gotta ask, and pardon the EXTREME NOOB question here. What exactly is pinging? Does it happen under hard acceleration? While idle? while car is turned off? Also, since we are on the subject, my car occasionally has this kind of deep rattly sound when I accelerate hard. It almost...
