    How to improve ride quality?

    I would, under no circumstance, ever recommend cutting springs. IMO, I dont care who says its ok I simply do not approve of it. A good friend of mine cut springs on his S10 and he is happy, but I wont do it with mine. I simply do not see how you could expect safety, handling and ride quality...

    Any plans for your Stang in 2010?

    Currently saving for the MM starter box. Should be on sometime around spring/early summer. Next will probably be a FR500 steering wheel and MM steering shaft. Probably more suspension after that. Then I'll dig into more power. I want a very well rounded car.

    4.10's and traction..

    Only gear I have problems with is first. Just gotta ride the clutch and modulate the throttle a little and it hooks. I've kept up with an STi out of the hole at the track on stock size tires, stock suspension and the 4.10's. It's a great gear. The stock rear suspension is a joke. Tires...

    Anyone Have This Tire? Nankang NS 2

    I'm on my 3rd set of BFG's. First set was the 1st gen KDW, 2nd was the KDWS's. I'm now running the G-force sports. I've been happy with all of them. So far, the KDW's have been the best, followed by the sports as far as performance is concerned. A performance tire that lasts 40k miles for a...

    HID Lights? Legal Or Pull Me Over Now?

    Wow I see a flame war coming.. I've had my 6k HID's for a while. Very nice improvement. The high beams havent worked for a while still gotta figure that out, but regardless its been a nice improvement. Probably my favorite is how HID's light up signs. Makes them much easier to see. My...

    Finally some snow

    If any of you folks really miss the snow that much, there is plenty down here. We are usually hard pressed to see any more than 6 inches all winter if that. So far, two storms dumped upwards of 20", plus all the stuff in between. I'm getting really tired of this crap. Cant wait for some...

    winter of 2010

    Pretty similar to what my car looked like, I just didnt take any pics this time. Twice this year now, unbelievable. And to think we had nearly 60 degree days before this. Damn VA weather. I cant wait for summer. To hell with this damn snow.

    What tire pressure do you run in the winter ?

    I run 35 in all four all year round. My car is a DD and I dont rag on it that much. Traction doesnt really suffer all that much by doing so, plus it helps with the gas mileage. At the track I have lowered it some with minimal gains if any at all. Running a street radial you likely gain...

    Simco gauges.. worth it or not?

    Agreed. Its completely plug and play. The autometer cluster is just awesome, they just dont make it anymore :( The autometer cluster I would have bought anyday. Shame they dont make it anymore. The regular simco cluster I just dont like. I dont care for the font style, the redline, the...

    Fast&Cheap Mods

    IMO the only "cheap" mod that adds decent power is an o/r midpipe which you already have done. Everything else you are pretty much looking at 500+ and all the other "cheap stuff" doesnt do much.

    How many people here really think they are never gonna sell their Mustang and why?

    I intend on keeping mine. I simply cant find the reasoning to part with it. There are ALOT of newer, nicer vehicles I want. 06+ lexus IS350, toyota x-runner, 03-04 cobra, 05+ GT, the list goes on. I do however intend on keeping it. Its the only car I have now, and as such is my DD. It's...

    Installed my Speedhut gauges today, with pics :) For those considering them...

    Good to see you got everything hooked up ok. Looks great! Think I might have to get one of those a/c panels as well, but its gonna have to wait. Saving for the MM starter box.

    New Seats - before and after pics

    I have the same seats in my 00'. One of my favorite mods. So much more support. I didnt get the back seat though, I plan on deleting that in the future. FordStang - The wire harness for the power seats is already there. Just need to plug it in. Sonic - I picked my set up for $400...

    Coil on plug and other maint. advice

    A 99 with only 18k miles, I would: Change the coolant, fuel filter, air filter (if necessary), brake fluid. CHECK: Battery, serpentine belt, spark plugs, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, lights, wipers, etc. Alot of items are WAY oversold in the auto industry IMO. Just because...

    safe to lift engine using intake manni bolt holes

    Should be fine, I have seen it done. I try to just use the most solid point on at minimum 2 opposing corners. Lay some duct tape, blue tape, whatever across the intake ports on the heads. You should have done this already if you havent. It will keep **** from falling into your heads, and...

    2JZ Turbo Setup on 4.6?

    A turbo IMO is the BEST power adder for a 4.6 if you have the money to do it right. They make the most HP, the most torque, and are crazy fun...but at a cost. As for your question, you may as well pass it up. You will need to re-do the whole front end of the car. I have yet to see a...

    Do any of you find yourselves wanting an s197?

    I'd love to have one. But I wont buy one. It is a superior car by far, but I have a few issues with them. Most of them have already been mentioned. I think I could get over the optical illusion of it being so much larger due to the body; I could even get over the weight. The #1 thing...
