    Scan tool unable to connect to computer

    First of all, did they use the (correct) connector under the hood behind the pass. side strut tower to connect the scanner? Or did they try the connector under the steering column, which actually isn't connected to anything? Secondly, the temperature spike could be due to a pocket of air...

    2007 taxes

    Should be getting-back $3000 or so, but I'll be getting it before the end of the month. I'll probably use it all to pay-off some bills and pay-back a friend who lended me $640 to get started after I moved this winter. Then its time to start thinking of a few mustang mods :rolleyes:

    will fox drveshft fit in my 94?

    Yes, it will fit. 79-95 driveshafts are all the same (diameters may vary slightly). The 96-04 ones are the only ones that are different because of the slip-yoke spline count, but otherwise same lenght and u-joints I believe.

    movie most looking forward to

    I've been out of the movie loop for too long. I had no idea about any of these movies, or that some of these 2nd part movies ever had a first part :shrug:

    Messed-up DFR500 wheels

    Wow, glad to see that my case wasn't just an isolated one. It seems to me that the clear coat they put on is extremely thin, since when sanding with 1000-grit, the white milky water you get (paint) quickly turns dark grey (down to metal) in a matter of a few strokes of the sand paper. And yes...

    New Guy Pics of Car Inside

    Man, that is one sweet looking ride you've got! For the rotors, I got a can of zinc paint (galvanizing) at the hardware store and painted the rotor hubs that way. I did it last May, and they still look as good as the day I painted them. And heat isn't an issue, it even withstood the heat from 6...

    Messed-up DFR500 wheels

    It was all done by stroking and rubbing with my bare hands :D :leaving: Well, with sandpaper in my hand, of course. Ok, get your minds out of the gutter! I would've loved to have a buffer to do it, would've turned-out even better I think. And I just bought the clear-coat in a shaker...

    it's gonna be pretty

    Daaayyyyyymmmnnn skippy :nice: That looks great! I especially like the front-end pic, looks ridiculously glossy. I'm sure the pics don't do it justice. I might just get myself an electric buffer/polisher one of these days and have a go at it. My paint has so many swirl marks, and I probably...

    Messed-up DFR500 wheels

    Progress! So I finally got to taking one wheel off and sanding it down. I started with 1000-grit, and quickly found I had to go down to bare metal to get rid of the spots, so I went all the way. If anyone has bought these replica DD wheels before, they'll know that you can see the machining...

    Messed-up DFR500 wheels

    Thanks for the tip :nice: I've got the things I think I need to do this, I'll attempt it this weekend and post results. Thankfully the fronts still look fine, so thats 2 fewer wheels I have to work on. I'm still not convinced that the lip has a clear-coat on it, the painted anthrocite part...

    roush brake kit... HELP

    How much was the kit, if you don't mind me asking? Last time I saw it listed was well over $2k. Looks mad blingiddy, though :nice:

    roush brake kit... HELP

    I can't see why it wouldn't fit. I remember they installed one of these kits on HorsePower TV a few years ago on a black '96 GT called project "Nightmare". There's probably only a handful of 18" Mustang wheels that will clear them though. Unless you use spacers with other 18" wheels.

    so it was nice out today...

    Nice Cobra! I've forgotten what a nice day looks like.... We just got 3' of snow on the weekend, and they're calling for more tonight and tomorrow.... wtf... There's no light at the end of this white wintery tunnel :( And it was 12°F this morning

    it's gonna be pretty

    Sweet! I've been toying with the idea of doing that to my hood, rear fenders and trunklid on a boring weekend some time, but I don't know if I trust myself to do it right. Make sure to post before and after pics and a some tips on how not to mess it up :nice:

    no side skirt pics

    I think Foxbodys can pull it off (notchbacks) in full track form, but on our body-style I think you would need the right stance and wheels to make it work, and probably wouldn't look right on some colors. Drag slicks help with the tough look :D Otherwise, if its a stock-height car with puny...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Man, I love your car! DFG FTW! I'm not sold on the 4 hood scoops either, but I love the rest. Was the side-exhaust on your car when you got it? I'm wondering what brand exhaust system is on it? Is it custom-fabricated? I want to get the side-exhaust for mine, but don't quite know how to go...
