    Ever wonder if your car has bad juju?

    I'll start by saying, I love my car. I remember being around 7-8 years old, and my cousin owned a Torch Red 90-93 Notchback. From that day, I knew I had to have a Notchback. I bought my car on March 23rd, 2005, I drove 4.5 hours each way to get it. I probably searched for 5 years for the...

    Cradle? Read the thread.

    Alright, so I have my car in the body shop, and one of the problems was that what appeared was that my fenders wouldnt line up evenly with the wheels. So now that they have finished the car, the rubbing may cease, but it still doesnt line up right. one wheel is tucked in, and the other one is...

    Ignition key lock cylinder

    Ok, so I took off all of the trim to replace the key lock cylinder, however in my research it says that the cylinder has to be in the "run position" in order to be removed. The downside is that I can't get it into that position, for if I could, I wouldnt replace the frickin thing. Is there a...

    Ignition lock and tumbler

    I'm not sure what the hell happened over night, but I parked the car last night and go to hop in it this morning and now when I try to put the key in the ignition, it will only go about 1/4 in and it gets stuck. Any quick remedies for this?

    Sad day for me. Selling the car.

    This isnt a for sale thread, I have it posted in local Craigslists and I hope it will sell. I'm selling for a couple of reasons. I just had back surgery in February and it is a pretty rough ride for someone trying to get better, I drove it for about an hour or so on the highway and I didn't...

    Why does 5.0 Talk suck lately?

    I've been on these boards for a while, and just watched them long before I joined. Most of the more senior members here know me, although I dont post that often. Lately it just seems that this subsection of Stangnet has turned pretty lame. Before I joined, and intially when I joined, it...

    MGW shifter question

    So back a little while ago I got the MGW shifter for my t-5 to replace the stock one. Install and everything installed a-ok. However I've driven quite a few cars with short throws, and it was definatly noticeable. After the MGW was installed, the shifter felt good, it was tight. But it...

    Rolling fenders? Tire rub ...

    I replaced the tires on my car not long ago, and I went a tad wider (from 225/50 to 245/50) . Because my car is lowered, it now rubs on the passenger front fender. Is there an easy solution to this? I had thought about taking a rubber mallet and thick cloth and just manipulating the...

    Who runs 245/50r16's on Ponies?

    I just wanted to see what the sidewall and rear of the car looked like, and how you thought they performed? I was running 225/50's to retain a similar overall tire dimensions as a factory rim, but a 245 isnt far off and am about to order tires. Input is appreciated!
