    what is causing this crazy idle?!

    I get the crazy idle in the morning when I first start the car. I wiggled and pushed in all the vacuum lines and it quit. You have to find the small vacuum lines too. They are usually wrapped in the plastic ribbed tubing.

    Auto tranny ATF capacity w/ tranny cooler

    When I installed my stall converter, I bought 14 quarts. I think I used up like 12.5. When I did the trans fluid cooler, I had a couple of bottles but didn't use any. You don't lose a lot of fluid during the installation. If you're removing the pan and draining it that way, you won't get it all...

    Quick X-pipe Question

    The rear O2 sensors were moved in 04, I believe. You might need O2 sensor extensions.

    mustang weight reduction?

    Ahhh. I remember you were one of the few (if not the only) sub-10 sec daily driver. Without bumpers and wipers, I wondered. Your thing under your user ID still says "9 Second Daily Driver".

    Subframe Connectors

    Get full length ones. They have a more contact area with your existing subframe. That translates to better support. I never had clearance issues with mine. My rear sway bar is still the lowest point. Everyone votes for Maximum Motorsports. I got the Laurel Mountain Mustang ones. The design of...

    Nitto tire prices

    I usually find the cheapest price online then take that to the local Discount Tire. They'll match the price and you don't have to deal with the mailman. Make sure they don't try to slip shipping onto your bill though.

    Got tips for taking off balancer with engine sitting on a tire...

    If that fails... You could try a strap wrench to hold the pulley. Then, attach a breaker bar to the pulley bolt and whack it with a 2x4 to simulate the action of an impact wrench.

    Strut tower brace: MM or Steeda?

    Anti-lock brakes and traction control became an option in 04. It was standard on prior years. Does that mean Ford concluded we don't need ABS/TC? Just because Ford removed it doesn't mean it wasn't necessary. It was primarily a business decision.

    New torque converter. 3200 stall to much?????

    If all you want to do is drag race, then you'll like a high stall. Your 1-2 shift might be a little soft so be aware.

    Tranny Cooler Install

    Bypass the stock one. Some argue you need it to warm up the fluid. The transmission will warm up the fluid for you. In high 20s to low 30s ambient temperature, my transmission fluid temp will get to 120s in 10 minutes, and stay there.

    Strut tower brace: MM or Steeda?

    I don't know. I was given a link to a thread on another board and it was just a bunch of vags arguing who is more credible.

    Strut tower brace: MM or Steeda?

    The weight argument blows my mind. We're talking a few pounds. Your CG changes more from the fuel sloshing around the fuel tank. It's like the CAI debate. A degree or two cooler if you suck air in from the fender. Woooooo! The ambient air temp changes by 10-20 degrees throughout the day and...

    Strut tower brace: MM or Steeda?

    Holy crap! I just read a couple of threads on the strut tower brace. The debates on their worthiness are worse than the X vs H pipe or 3.73 vs 4.10 or any CAI thread. Maybe I'll just buy another gun to add to my collection.

    Strut tower brace: MM or Steeda?

    Really? I would think keeping the struts true to the pavement would be a bigger gain than a few pounds. Besides, those pounds mean more to drag racing than autocross.
