    So I got a replacement two days ago, be gentle.

    It's a 2000 Trans Am WS6 with the SLP package. 6-speed, 50k miles, Suncoast Raptor hood, and is very, very clean. I'm in love with it, honestly. I wasn't ready to get back into a Mustang yet, unless it was a Terminator (which were out of my price range). I've seen the LS1s put down 400rwhp+...

    A day that I will, unfortunately, never forget...

    Today at around noon, I was involved in a bad accident. Before I go on, I'm ok, aside from a stiff neck. I was traveling on a main road, doing 45mph (45mph zone), and I noticed a big flatbed truck waiting to make a right turn onto the street. I was in the far right lane, with moderate...

    New Look

    Hey guys, if you didn't know already, I had 18x9/18x10 anthracite FR500s on my car. Decided to trade with my buddy (TropicMustang) for his black Terminator wheels (17x9/17x10.5). He also threw in his headlight covers. It was initially going to be a temporary trade, but we're both in love with...

    Going to the track tonight...

    Hey guys, gonna run my car tonight at craptacular Sac Raceway. I'm not expecting stellar times there since the condition of the track is so poor, but I just had a question. I've got NT555R DRs and 4.10s... What's a good amount of air to run in the tires? Obviously they're at 35psi for the...

    Had to swap out my O/R X in favor of the stock H due to a ticket...

    And a small part of me likes the sound. I have LM1s, so obviously with the O/R X the sound is obnoxious... but I've always loved it. However, the stock H provides a much deeper and cleaner, albeit quieter sound. In a way, also, it's more fun to drive now. I don't have to worry about every...

    The UPS man came bearing gifts today

    Spec Stage 1 clutch, Spec lightweight flywheel, and the clutch adjuster kit, all from AM, delivered in a timely fashion as always. Putting it all in next Wednesday, can't wait! I currently have a worn out Spec Stage 2 clutch with the crappy stock flywheel and beat-to-**** bearings. It's gonna...

    Would Roush sideskirts/exhaust and rear valences flow well with a Termi front bumper?

    Just curious what you guys think, as I'm having a hard time picturing it in my head. Also, if you have any pics of said setup, feel free to add them.

    Spark plug shot out of the head tonight

    Was home after a nice calm cruise (never went above 3,000RPM), and I hear a loud pop as I'm coming to a stop and my idle became rough. I knew it was bad. I get home and pop the hood while the car was on and noticed one of the coilpacks was shaking violently along with the horrible knocking...

    Some updates on my new 78mm BBK Throttle Intake and dyno situation

    So my car was dynoed today... Here are the numbers from several runs. The car was running extremely lean at WOT, so the initial numbers were low. Baseline: 238whp/242tq After making some tweaks with my Xcal 3 to fix the AFR: 245whp/282tq After installing the BBK Throttle Intake: 242whp/279tq...

    Installed Terminator front bumper, hood won't close.

    Put it on, was excited, but the clearance on the Termi bumper is different, and now my damn hood won't close. What adjustments can I make to fix this? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Just ordered the BBK 78mm Throttle Intake, getting dyno tuned. Come guess my numbers!

    Hey guys, just ordered this: http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/item/BBK-1780 I know most of you will say it's overkill, but I will be going FI down the road and the piece has been proven to give some gains (even if they're not huge). Never had the car dynoed, this will be the first time...

    Got a new racing seat and 4.10s in!

    Hey guys, just picked up my car from Midnight Performance in Rancho Cordova, and I must say, it feels like a different car. The difference between the stock 3.27s and 4.10s is night and day. The thing just absolutely pulls now, and 5th gear is so much more useful. I'm in love with it. Now...

    Some new pics, updates, and good news & bad news

    Hey guys, my buddy pulled out his Sony DSLR the other day and took some quick photos of my car. The car is pretty dirty unfortunately, but the pics look pretty good, I think. Anyways, here they are: My buddies doing retarded poses, my head poking out the drivers side window...

    Pics of Mustangs with 4" exhaust tips?

    Hey guys, I'm looking to change out my 45 degree angle cut, 3.5" tips for something with a straighter cut, like SLP tips, but 4" in diameter. I would like to see some pics of your guys' tips along with some recommendations. Thanks. :nice:

    Keep them Anthracite, or paint them satin black?

    Hey guys, as some of you may know I recently put some 18x9/18x10 anthracite FR500s on my car. I was thinking of having them painted a satin black, including the lip. The entire wheel would be black. I think it would look pretty mean on my car. I've seen it done to a guy near me with a white...

    Snapped some pics of my new wheels

    Took them really quickly after I got them on, just crappy cell phone pics. I'll be sure to get a batch of nice ones up taken with my camera, but here are these ones for now just to give you guys an idea. :D 18x9/18x10, Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercars out back (295) and Nankang 245s up...

    Anyone have 295s on the rear?

    I was wondering if any of you guys could post pics of the rear of your cars with 295s. I'm curious as to how wide they look. Plus it's an opportunity for some of you to pic whore. :nice:
