    So what did Ford really do to my car??

    Sounds like they did part of the TSB work. They should have replaced the synchros for 1st-4th. Here's the TSB: page one page two

    BBK X-O/R Mistake?

    +1 My MAC O/R H installed great, sounds awesome and all the O2 sensors reached just fine. Get a MAC.

    Tire Brands

    Kumho's do run narrow. Plus they're the world's crappiest performance tire. The set I put on my old Probe GT were at least 10mm narrower than the Dunlops they replaced. Both were labeled 225 width, but the kumhos looked like 215 when installed. Plus, they had the traction properties of a...

    Oil and Filter opinions

    Thanks -- that is a good thread. Looks like Mobil 1 or Castrol Syntec are the popular picks. However, I use dino oil right now. I've heard that switching to synthetic can cause problems in an "established" engine. Anyone have any thoughts concerning that?

    people with H&R sport + FRPP C springs + Eibach prokit ENTER

    Here's mine before and after "C" Springs. I didn't cut any coils. I like the "rake" that the slightly higher rear gives. Front dropped about 2" and rear about 1.25-1.5". There's another "before" pic in my Stangnet Garage.

    Oil and Filter opinions

    I'm curious about all your opinions on Oil and filters. I have a low-yearly-mileage 02 GT. Currently I have 40,000 miles, usually drive about 7-8000 miles/year. I bought it 2 years ago @ 28K miles. I usually change the oil fall and spring. If I take it on an extended cruise, or play rough...

    IT Career guys i need advice

    I got a CIS degree in the early 90s and my 1st employer sprung for a set of classroom-taught MCSE courses. (huge perk because they're big bucks) With less than 10 years in the field I got an MIS manager job with a small manufacturing company. The money is decent (a little north of 70K), I'm...

    PSI on street tires

    :nice: Thumbs up for 32psi 35 pumps up the tires so you will get better mpg, but running slightly lower psi will give you better traction. Just because your tires say 35psi on the side DOES NOT mean that's the proper inflation pressure.

    Mach 1 Chin from Home Depot?

    That's it. Thanks. Now -- can any of you "Bob Vila" types identify the type of weatherstripping he used? I can't quite figure it out from "the kind that comes in rolls with a split in the middle"....

    Mach 1 Chin from Home Depot?

    Well, it actually didn't look bad. And since New England Winter + FRPP "C" Springs + winter driving = trashed $80 Chin spoiler, I thought this might be an acceptable alternative. Doesn any one have a link along with the expected wise-ass comments? :D

    Mach 1 Chin from Home Depot?

    I saw a thread a few weeks ago about a guy who made a Mach 1 chin spoiler from some door weatherstripping/moulding he got at Home Depot. The pics he posted looked decent. And it was cheap -- like $10 of something. I lost the link to the thread, does anyone have it?

    Best exhaust for a 2002 GT???

    MAC O/R H-pipe and Flowmaster Super 40s. The most common comment I get is "That sounds badass!" Yes, it's pretty damn loud.

    Please don't street race

    THAT is EXACTLY why street racing is a Bad Thing -- "normal" drivers aren't expecting to be checking the intersection for a car approaching at 130mph. (And they shouldn't have to.) Sorry man, but with that single statement you just proved you're a moron.

    Want new polish for new car. Zaino?

    Hey Mazda 3's are great! I bought the first one in my area when they released them. Was very cool, but I ended up trading for a Mustang a year later -- nothing wrong with the Mazda, just wanted more torque. As for polish/wax, I'm completely sold on Klasse All-in-one, followed by a coat or two...

    What's a good performing all-season tire for the stang?

    I've been driving for more than 25 years in new england winters. I KNOW how to drive without TC. But when you're trying to get moving from a stop up a slick, snow covered hill, it's damn nice to be able to start out in 2nd (3.90s pretty much preclude 1st in the winter) engage the clutch and...
