    Looks like I'm in the minority - MGW shifter isn't for me

    I'm using the stock handle and isolator with the steeda tri-ax. Works great for comfort and is silent as stock. It is not as short or as precise as with the tri-ax handle, but it is a vast improvement over stock.

    guys with 04 gt 5spds any problems since u had the car?

    My steering rack creak was fixed for now with a lot of penetrating oil. The center AC vent rattle was fixed by taking the whole pannel out, then using a rtv silicone around where the two pieces meet making sure to push it into the cracks and spaces between the two pieces. However I do have a...

    what are those things called?

    Mhanna77, hey man I absolutely love the 69 mach. IMHO the best looking car bar none. I loved the way the louvers look on that car, and that's part of the reason I got them for my 04. Not arguing physics here just talking about aperance mods and peoples tastes. Some like custom hoods with...

    what are those things called?

    I have them and love them. To each his own I guess. For me 18" wheels and lowering a car is for the '63 impallas. Putting Cobra and Roush body panels on a GT is for posers.

    Best Gears?

    4.30's I was told don't fear the gear so much that I went for the 4.30's. I don't find that 1st gear take offs are too slow but If I need to get going fast I usually take off in 2nd just to avoid the extra shift. I find that I am usually in a higher gear around town. Where I used to be in...

    about to make own catback

    I'm going to cut out the existing mufflers and buy some universal fit magnapacks. I know the original pipes are for offset and maganapacks are straight thru, and can modify the pipes like I want. My question is what are used in the magnapack cat back? Are they 3.5" or 4" body diameter and...

    Why not 3.90s???

    I dont care! I'm running 4.30's and love them. Of course the way I judge mods are by how much they help me destroy tires, and 4.30's have been the best mod so far!

    Will this radio work in my 04?

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=50556&item=5712202256&rd=1 My 04 GT has the 6 disc changer headunit. I was wondering if this mp3 unit will plug in to the existing harness, or will it require a lot of wiring to get it to work. If not can you suggest a factory mp3...

    t-45 sensors

    The sensors on my '04 t-45 have gone out. The SES light is on all the time and the speedometer and odometer are not working. The odometer will show the same milage for about 5-10 minutes then go to all dashes. I have noticed that after comming down from highway speeds and stopping at a light...

    rear window louvers

    I bought mine from visus. Love them. They sit at the perfect angle so that when you look out of the back glass from the drivers seat all you see are very thin profiles of the louvers. They do shake a little from a cross wind but there is no noise. no problems at very high speeds.. My only...

    Might sound crazy...

    My neighbor just put a set of sumitomo 275's on his 04 mach. He swears that they have less traction than the stock goodyears and he can lay a scratch much easier with them. That got me thinking... I really enjoy leaving rubber and would actually like a set of tires on the rear that would have...

    Old School

    Anyone ever tried or heard someone with regular glasspacks. I love the way they sound on my Galaxie 500 but not sure what to expect on my 04 GT. The Galaxie is a 289 with stock manifolds and dual exhaust, 24in glasspacks. I realize that the orignial stang mufflers have offset in and out pipes...

    I desperately need an '03 cobra front bumper

    I have been looking for an aftermarket front bumper to put on my 04 GT. Was looking through a magazine the other day and saw the exact one I wanted. Come to find out it was a factory 03 cobra bumper. Anyone know where I can get one from. I was thinking directly from FoMoCo, but I figured...
