    My turn for pic whoring (cobra bumper) 56k = take a hike

    Thanks for all the comments! :) Yeah I think I'm going to leave the front plate off. If I REALLY have to put one on, I'll mount the bracket with double sided tape. As far as the Mach wheels, some pleople love 'em, some hate 'em. Obviously I love 'em. I figured I'd be different, since...

    My turn for pic whoring (cobra bumper) 56k = take a hike

    Just finished up today on my first spring project. Took me all but an hour to install, not all that difficult. I'm really diggin' the front without the license plate, but in NY it's a requirement. I would hate to ruin such a nice bumper and drill holes, so I'm going to see how long it takes...

    Those who have installed a Vortech/Paxton

    Car is running great. I'll tell you, I can never go back to N/A with this car! I regret waiting so long to do this. I took it out of winter storage last week, thinking we were done with the snow..WRONG!!. But other than that, car is running like a champ. I have an '01 Cobra bumper that I'll...

    Those who have installed a Vortech/Paxton

    I guess you're keeping your car a little longer Joe? Congrats on getting the Goose! :) The -16, and the -18 are the number of threads per inch. I believe the 3/8 NPT is only offered as a -16. Just take your time punching and tapping the oil pan. I used 2 size punches, a small tapered...

    2007 Nissan Maxima...Stupid Car

    Yeah the CVT takes some time getting used to. My murano has the same engine/tranny configuration. The response while accelerating is like a boat....very linear and the RPM's just stay constant for most the time. It's a pain in the ass at first, but for a daily driver it's very comfortable and...

    Car Won't Stay Running..

    I'd say that most of us here have replaced the IAC at some point in time, it's is such a common part to fail on our stangs. Usually one tries to clean it for a quick fix, but eventually it becomes necessary to replace it.

    Stall Converter, do i need one..???

    And I meant no offense to whyask either. This planet is filled with a-holes, hence why that thought crossed my mind. If I heard somebody, especially somebody in the business of working on cars, tell me my 5 spd car needed a torque converter, you'd bet my ass I'd call him out on it.

    Stall Converter, do i need one..???

    Just a thought, maybe the guy was trying to be a smartass just to see how much you knew about cars and if you were paying attention. When he said that to you, did you question it?

    07 GT vs. 02 GT (mine)

    Are you sure you're not confusing the Shelby GT to the Shelby GT500? $43k is alot of dough for a souped up NA GT.

    mustang supercharger kit differences 97 vs. 03

    I have no experience with the Powerdyne product, but as far as Vortech's are concerned, the differences are mostly in the mounting bracket. That may be the reason.

    My Mustang Vs A Minivan!!!

    My apologies, I edumicated myself with wikipedia...apparently the light bar color rules do vary by state. Being in NY that would be a major no-no, so that's where I was basing my opinion from. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_bar

    My Mustang Vs A Minivan!!!

    Not only that, but a light bar sporting red and blue lights....aren't they reserved for the Police only? Lucky the cop didn't write him a ticket for impersonating a police officer while he was at it. If he wasn't, then what would be the point of slapping police interceptor badges on it as...

    All supercharged applications...help me out...

    I somehow felt this was going to end up in another centri/twin screw debate. It's funny how quick the twin screw guys are so eager to trash the centri's. Maybe it's because we spend nearly half the cost for a SC setup and can still do just as good, perhaps better? :eek: I keep hearing...

    All supercharged applications...help me out...

    If you want to do it right the first time, then the shortblock first will give you better results for the future when you want to get greedy with higher boost levels. Keep in mind it's not just the shortblock you'll be throwing money at, but also an upgraded transmission, rear end, possible...

    99-00 vs 01-04 Odometer

    Just to add, the color is not only different on the odometer, but on mostly all lit surfaces of the dashboard. The 99-00 are more closer to a blue color on the speedo numbers, HVAC controls and stereo controls as well. The same rule applies to the 01-04, but they are more greenish in...

    appraisal of '00 gt

    I think you guys are confused. It's not his car that is wrecked, he's considering buying this car which is already wrecked for $1200. If that is the case and you have connections in the body shop industry, I'd say that's a steal! Is the title still clear?
