    3 valve noisy car

    Not especially loud but it's a V8 muscle car so it's not going to be sylph-like and inconspicuous. Big power needs big components and gears to contain it. Certainly, you'll hear the gearbox, you'll hear the engine and anything else is a bonus.

    Tach adapter install HELP

    I've got a Raptor shift light and this is how I wired it - basically an earth, a live and a feed to one of the coil feeds : http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2177534/8

    Used GT prices are ridiculous....

    You Americans are ridiculously spoilt! I see lots of young people going out buying new cars, including Mustangs whilst over here in the UK, we have to pay a lot more for our cars. OK, an imported Mustang GT Premium - $48600 A slightly used one - minimum $36000 What could we have for $30000...

    After market exhaust

    The problem is that with the 462hp supercharger, you rarely get the chance to reach WOT which is where the noise arrives - except by that time, you're going so fast, the noise is left behind you. The system I had made up is literally a couple of straight-through mufflers. The funny thing is that...

    Clarkson rants on Americans and Mustang

    Ah, I get it - urban sprawl. So Wales has a population of 60 million "outside the country limits"? Metro Wales we call it. ;) So if London has a population of 7.5 million, if I understand the detailed crux of your argument, after considerable homework, it's that the USA has a larger population...

    Clarkson rants on Americans and Mustang

    You know, I shouldn't really pick this but the population of Chicago is 2.8 million and the population of Wales is 2.9 million so your "math" is a little awry.

    After market exhaust

    Gotta say, I went with the Corsa and was happy for a short while but I'm afraid they're just too inconspicuous and not deep enough or loud enough. So I had a set made up although the sound quality on Photobucket isn't too good http://s100.photobucket.com/albums/m25/LuS1fer/?sc=3

    gt500 allocation

    The better brakes are only required to counter the weight. they are probably no better in practice than a stock lighter GT. Here's an idea - put them on the GT.

    Differences in Ford Racing Axle Backs?

    Since the manual and auto mufflers are different on the stock car, could the A be designed for the auto? Just a thought. Probably a stupid one.

    After market exhaust

    Listen to the IMCO clip. You can find it on the Ninosports site and doubtless other sources.

    Clarkson rants on Americans and Mustang

    My pet gripe too but you have to remember that the cars sell for far more in the UK. A Z06 is around £60k-65k which is about $100k plus. Hence the comparisons which appear unfair as they're based on the UK price comparison complete with profit margin, 10% import duty and 17.5% tax. The opposite...

    Sure you do. That's not irony by the way, that would be a paradox. Here's some more of the contrary man: http://www.topgear.com/content/features/stories/2006/06/stories/08/1.html

    Are all door handles the same color?

    I can now. My works computer won't let me see photos. Strange. Maybe the silver comes with the beige interior then, I can imagine black being a bit stark in contrast. Just a thought.

    Clarkson rants on Americans and Mustang

    For the second time - it's the United Kingdom not England. And if that's the case, god help us. No offence. Besides, I thought you were all Irish these days? ;)

    Clarkson rants on Americans and Mustang

    Your education no doubt leads you to believe that everyone in the UK is "English" rather than Scottish, Welsh, English and Northern Irish. On that basis, Canadians and Brazilians are all Americans. ;) Being Welsh, I take no personal offence and I can confirm that the English are lacking in the...

    New idea for the 2005 mustang, tell me what you think

    Flatulently revoltingly hideous. You might get some interest from a partially sighted person who needs to find his Mustang in a dark parking lot but really, your poll results present an accurate reflection of the bilious turpitude this sort of addition invokes. On a blinged up Chrysler 300 -...

    What are you paying for a new GT500?

    I would agree there is value in rarity. That is one reason I drive a Mustang in the UK. But I would never pay through the nose to be different when you can buy pretty much the same thing by modifying a GT. For me, a Shelby is just a badge and just another Mustang. But I'm old and cynical so...

    Would that be when the Camaro and Challenger are on the market or before?
