    2007 Mustang Shelby GT price

    There is no yellow Shelby GT. There is a Yellow one, it was a special California Edition Shelby made for SOCAL. Only 300 were made and only available in California. I tried desperately to get one, but the markup was just DUMB. These were in dealer showrooms throughout California...

    Steeda Heavy Duty Belt Tensioner

    This Steeda tensioner is really good for 400rwhp FI cars...if I remember they bought the design from a guy in Texas who was making it all by himself. He was selling them as fast as he could make them and everyone praised the part. Check in to it though to be sure. I am prettty sure it's NOT...

    2007 Mustang Shelby GT price

    Yeah I got mine for $4k under back in Jan '08. And that is not 11k to 12k off, ha ha ha. That reduction is only true of the insane markups they had. The real price of that car was $40,000 to $42,000.

    2007 Mustang Shelby GT price

    2007 Shelby GTs go anywhere from $27,000 to $35,000 on Ebay. Not saying this is how it always it, but generally the case. 2007 Mustang GTs go for $16,000 to 19,000 2007 GT500s go for $34,000 to $38,000 in the "normal price" offers. There are still some dealers and owners hoping you'll pay...

    new rotors (not big brake kit)?

    I went mainstream...ordered the Aussie sourced DBA rotors and a no frills stainless braided brake line kit from Tirerack. $650 or so. The rotors are overkill for street use but they do look nice. On the track, with track pads, they rock. I am still stunned how well the stock calipers with...

    sequentials out of sequence

    I don't know why sequentials are such a pain. It should just be a simple thing to plug in and be done. My god! I have read endless posts of all the issues people have. There will be like two or three guys that had zero issues and then pages of problems from others. Personally I have tried...

    Bullitt Suspension for a 2009 GT

    The Ford Racing Handling pack is NOT what is on the Bullitt. It's what Shelby puts on the Shelby GTs though. It's a great kit. It's not too harsh for daily driving, improves look and stance. The feel is great AND more importantly I can tear it up at the track with this kit. It's a great...

    I hear you man...every time I pay that e-Bill for mine in these craptastic times...I fear one day I might have to.....stop.

    Saw my first 2010 today in Culver.

    GT, red, looked good up front, but then as it passed us, that nasty rear end...ugh. What a shame.

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    The suspension system from a mass market vendor I am most impressed with currently is Nissan's 370z. It's absolutely gorgeous. No wonder that can has been ripping the track up. The 350s was really good but had some flaws, the 370s is evolution. Now to bolt it up to a Mustang.....I kid...I kid..

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    The Ford IRS in that SVT was a terrible design. Poorly planned and rushed out on a platform never designed in the first place to have one. Do not judge the potential of an IRS on a Mustang by that offering.

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    Yeah weight is always an issue. That's why you have to use aluminum and magnesium. Which can be expensive. But this is what I am saying. I'd tick off the option box for such a setup from Ford. It might mean upwards of $2000 or more, but engineered for daily drive and mass market would so be...

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    To continue..... How the cars weight is handled under load. How the suspension reacts to weight transfer and deflection, etc. Solid axle cars, even Watts, still hop out in situations where an IRS won't. IRS is just abetted solution for road course.

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    Guys.."g" is about 1/3 of actual track handling. How the car responds under load when the suspension deflects and so on.

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    HA HA HA....yes...the Grigg's stuff is bad ass....I've tracked them seen what they have done. But that stuff is $4500 to $15,000. It's also not really practical for street/weekend racer. A well engineered, mass marketed IRS can give weekend racers everything they need for far cheaper. As nearly...

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    That's why it should be a factory option. Part of "sport pack" or something. The drag guys can have their iron telephone pole that they can launch day in and out for eternity with no worries and the road course guys can toss it up at the track with their IRS. :)

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    That's pretty sexy. I've also ridden and driven in some REALLY nice Watts setups....but they just don't compare when tossing your car up on the curbs or when dealing with an uneven track. I know there are professional teams that stand by them but have still yet to meet a tech that; if it was...

    And why can't Ford figure out how to do this?

    Or should I say make it affordable? This IRS is just INSANE LOOKING! I love it! Multilink front too...although no true unequal length front still. DROOOOOOL

    Saleen (stoptech) 14" brake kit clear the 18" TQs?

    Looks like those spacers are no longer on that site...I was looking for a buddy of mine.
