    can anybody find any problems with this?

    Yeah, call and ask lots of questions. Ask the seller to email you a pic of the dash plate signed with production #. It has lots of discrepancies. Shelby GT with a spoiler and GT500 wheels? Being advertised as a GT500? All those parts are readily available to make a clone, just do your...

    65 Mirrors on my 08 GT

    Wow, excellent job. I love custom work like this. You have a very clean ride there sir. Where did you source the mirrors?

    Coming over to the "Dark Side" LOL

    Welcome, I think you might try an H with the flowmasters. Many agree that chambered mufflers sound better with H's rather than X's. The performance difference is barely noticeable. As far as the springs, I can recommend the ford K springs to you. They don't 'slam' the car down low but offer...

    Tri-Ax or Hurst Billet, if u had to pick

    :stupid: Tried the hurst and it felt too soft and delicate. Like I was going to break it if I drove it hard. Tri Ax installed with optional arm and hurst black ball. All the style with a ton of function. :nice:

    stupid question: what do you call the slide of the back end?

    I know what you're talking about I think... its not really wheel hop. It's like when you drag an empty wagon over a rough surface and the rear end hops around (to a much lesser degree on the car I hope). My car used to do this until it was lowered with new springs/shocks/struts. I may be...

    Tuners rework the computer to optimize it for newly installed aftermarket equipment. Such as a larger intake tube, or a new gear ratio out back for example. They can adjust fuel/air ratio, timing, shift points, red lines, etc. Its important to get one of those when you do a cold air intake...

    New to StangNet

    Welcome, the 'no-tune' intakes like this one don't do much other than change the way your car sounds at wide open throttle. I have the K&N version (practically the same thing), and if I had to do it all over again i would have saved my money and invested in a C&L or JLT (with tune) which seems...

    StangNet Releases THE Official images of the 2010 Ford Mustang

    Can I just get an interior upgrade? :shrug: The lower face... as Mr_Q pointed out smacks of mitsu and the arse looks lifted off a G35 coupe with the forward slanting brakelights. I'll hold out for a bigger engine, thank you.

    Shocks and Suspension recommendations.

    Chiming in because I have the HPs installed. They are firm but not floaty, i'd totally recommend them however when i talked to the guys at Tokico about it they said to stay away from anything lower than 1.5" (which is why I went with the ford springs). The Prokit is the same thing if i'm not...

    Mustang Dyno Meet November 1st in Fresno

    Couldn't get a final confirmation from Precision today, but we are showing up anyway (rain or shine) tomorrow and hopefully get some pulls in. Hope to see some of you guys out there. If for some reason the shop is closed I think we're going to head over to hooters anyway for lunch 12pm anyway.

    Suspension install (Tons of pics)

    Thanks, the ride is firm but not bouncy. I think it actually rides better than it did, way less roll. I think that header belongs to a focus. Either that or a toyota.. my buddy's drive way is a graveyard for old toyotas. The K springs are supposed to be 1.5 all around. The back should...

    NEW PICS!!!!

    The focus ST is what replaces the RS now... 220 horses or so. Turbo 5cyl.. sweet cars, we only get the volvo c30 here (which is basically what it is). Direct compete with the wrx, gti, etc. Wish we got them here, might have bought one instead of the stang! :eek: Enough derail though, nice...

    NVMC Dyno Day 10-18-08 videos

    Looks like good times, we're having a dyno day on the first of november. I can't wait! I wouldn't worry about your numbers, you post some great times at the track with them. One thing though, everytime you car is on the dyno it sounds like its hesitating in the mid to upper range... am I just...

    Map light console needed

    Yes, this. Depends on where the holes are. You could always cut yourself some vinyl to cover the bottom?

    Suspension install (Tons of pics)

    I haven't been posting on here in a while, but I have been faithful in modding my stang! I have done some interior stuff, tinted the windows, thrown on a new spoiler, finished the suspension.... for now. Its scary when I total up how much $$$ everything is, but I forget all about it when I...

    Hood and window scoops

    I have supreme confidence in that 3M tape. If you've ever tried to take something off that was held on by that stuff you'll know.

    Clunk on Startup?

    I have had the exact same problem since day one. I am not sure either. Of course when you take it to the dealership it never does it. It feels like a low thud right in front of the pedals.

    short vs. stock antennae

    I have a shorty on my car and the range is noticeably reduced, I probably have less than half the range that I did before. Just my personal experience.
