    Doing a clutch install myself, what will I need...

    I'm going to be installing my clutch this weekend, i've already got the basic tool set. I've installed a clutch before on my rx7, but with some professional help, so its almost like doing this for my first time. What parts should I get for the entire job, and will it be doable without air tools...

    Parts for better handling?

    Going from an rx7 to a mustang I knew I couldn't expect much as far as it being comparible, but I was wondering what you guys recomment for some better turning? New tires are in order soon, so i'll probably get something performance oriented, but what kind of suspension setups have worked for...

    So the car I JUST bought is already ****ing up on me...need serious help

    When the car is turned off I can shift the gears completely fine like they should be. When the car is on, I can no longer put it into any gear unless I start with the car in gear with the clutch in. Aggressively is just me getting on the gas every once and a while, not shifting hard from a stop...

    So the car I JUST bought is already ****ing up on me...need serious help

    Normally I wouldn't mind spending a weeks pay getting a new clutch and all, but the problem here is that I just spent all my money on buying this thing and i'm in school for the summer and I can't find a job around here that will hire me since I can't work any of the hours they want me to.

    So the car I JUST bought is already ****ing up on me...need serious help

    I didn't ever jam them in until I was forced to jam them in because they werent going at all. I got the car checked out by a mechanic before buying it, and he mentioned something about the dust cover being off of the shift fork. Maybe it was screwed up and the guy decided not to mention it...

    So the car I JUST bought is already ****ing up on me...need serious help

    90k miles, exhaust, intake, short shifter. Didn't do anything to the car except drive it a bit aggressively, but that was only while in gear, since I got the car two days ago I haven't dumped the clutch or even taken it up to redline. What does this matter anyways? I figured the first long ass...

    New 4.6L Owner, have some n00b questions...

    As far as the 4.10 gears go, what kind of effects am I looking at? I've seen the videos posted that go through all the driving RPMs and driving situations that gave me a pretty good idea of how the driving will be with the new gearing, but i've heard stuff about decreased gas milage...

    New 4.6L Owner, have some n00b questions...

    Thanks for the info. Everyone i've talked to seems to tell me to go for a head swap, but how much is that going to cost me approx? I'm actually a rotary guy so i've got the basic intake/exhaust/fuel knowledge, but when it comes to heads, cams, etc. i'm lost so I probably wouldn't do it myself...

    New 4.6L Owner, have some n00b questions...

    I'm picking up my 96' GT tomorrow and i've got some questions before more mods begin. Basically the car only has a K&N intake, an off-road H-pipe, flowmaster catback, and a short shifter. Based on this, what would you guys say the next step is as far as bolt-ons go? I've been reading about...

    saw a Ford GT Prototype in a parking lot here at Virginia Tech

    I don't have my car down here with me now since there was a big problem the weekend I went back home to pick it up. I should have it here soon though, its an 89' rx-7 turbo, very un-stock, heh. Here are some more pics from today in front of squires: V--I told her she could sit in it...

    Running 12's with a GT or Cobra?

    I have about $10k to spend and i'm looking for a mid 90's Cobra or GT now. Assuming I can get one for around $6-9k, whats the easiest way to get these cars somewhat reliably into the 12's? Pretty much my only restriction would be something like nitrous that I don't want to use. I'm new to...
