    I hate to say it...

    not sure, it pulled steadily to 115, once I hit 115 I was afraid to gas it any more because I was close to my redline. I was on the turnpike so time wasnt really an issue

    I hate to say it...

    I can't recall where I got my info from, but the Honda had 140 horses... maybe it's innacurate but I've driven a stang that could smoke V8's (this one was a six) and I've driven an RSX type S (which was pretty damn fast if I do say so myself) and this Honda is pretty quick as well in comparison...

    I hate to say it...

    I've got mine up to 115 with a buddy driving next to me to tell me my speed (since the speedo only says 85).

    I hate to say it...

    Well....in three monthes I will no longer be the owner of a 2.3L mustang. It's sad....I love my little N/A...but her time is soon to end. She has over 200k miles on her. A lot of problems have been surfacing as well, one of my door handles broke off. My tranny slips worse that a ball covered in...

    Old folks and Mustangs don't mix

    Mine isn't as severe as all of your stories. But my Dad was driving my 88 and he backed it into a trailor. I could've believe that he missed it, the thing was huge. Anyway, the body was in just about perfect condition. Now, I need a new trunk and some work done on the right rear quarter panel...

    possible te buy an import and not be called a ricer?

    i only call people ricers when they take their car over the line. you can own a domestic and still be a ricer. there is a few ricer mustangs around my areas. big wings, tacky graphics, tipped mufflers, and risdiculously bright paintjobs are all ricer and should be kept away from all cars.

    Emergency Brake Light in the Dash

    The emergency brake light was coming on and off what seemed to be in random patterns yesterday. Today, it won't turn off. Anyone have any idea what could be wrong? My car is an '88 N/A. I haven't played with the handbrake at all until the light started coming on. Please help!

    Heater Core Replacement

    If you don't have to replace it (like if you live in South Florida, like me) don't. Just bypass it. From everything I've heard, the job will take you an entire day at the least. If you do need to do it, I'd say go by haynes. If you don't trust Haynes, get a Chilton's, those are sometimes easier...

    does an 89 2.3l auto have a rev limiter?

    Mine's an 88 and I can get it over 5k in park. I'm not sure if the 89 is different, but I have no problem getting it over 5k.

    MSD Ignition

    I know a little bit about engines, but I'm still pretty clueless about ignitions. How would an MSD ignition help my car and is it worth the money?

    Drifting!!!

    I have a buddy that can drift on straights....he can get the car pretty close to sideways. of course, its not as fun as curves or corners.

    Drifting!!!

    I already said that I don't do it around people. You won't see me on any street with houses on it. That makes no sense. I know that "wreckless" driving is stupid. But wreckless driving in a residential is even more stupid.

    anyone have a pic of an lx with the gt turbine wheels?

    I see them around my neighborhood all the time, but I never have a camera on me.

    Drifting!!!

    Yeah, I would love an LSD. I don't have the time or money for it right now. I need to tune up my tranny and get some new sparkplugs and wires. Thats about all I can handle at this date. I figure I should say forget tuning the tranny and see if I could get a manual from the junk yard. But that...

    Who has the best....

    If the Ford weather stripping is so great than why do we all need to replace ours....I'm not downing Ford, just a thought.

    Drifting!!!

    I have no stickers on my car and I do slide around corners. It does waste tires faster but I figure as long as I pay for them, I'm allowed to waste them. As long as I have money to buy more...it's ok because I don't have to worry about riding on bald tires.

    lights

    I know where the adjusting rings are, I just haven't looked in a while and I'm pretty sure last I checked it was just a nut on the back, no rings

    Drifting!!!

    1. I am responsible enough to admit what I do wrong, if I hit someone I would call the police and an ambulance myself. If I destroyed someone's property I would re-imberse them. I know the consequences and I'm not a :taco: and I'll stand up for what I do wrong. 2. I am in just as much control...
