    Window seal loose. What adhesive to use?

    My rear window seal is loose, what adhesive should I use to fix it? I prefer not to use super glue as that stuff doesn't seem to stick to anything but skin.

    Help! Driver seat is loose

    FYI - I send an email with the picture to a friend/mechanic, and ofcourse hard as it is troubleshooting looking at a picture, he couldn't tell for sure, but he thought it was the "bolt" I have framed in red and included a close up of. I am going to order a new part, install it and get back...

    Help! Driver seat is loose

    I got hold of the Mustang Service Manual, and it helped me get the seat out without a problem. I tried troubleshooting the components for quite a while, but still no luck after assembling it again. If you look at the first attached picture, it shows the bottom of the seat. The framed green...

    Help! Driver seat is loose

    Nope, it's only going to get worse, so find a solution before it is too late and share it with me ;) . On a more serious note, I will probably see if I can get under the seat this weekend and figure out how hard it is to take apart. Just wish someone had a diagram or could give me a direction...

    Help! Driver seat is loose

    john_324> it only happened during hard cornering or high speeds a few month ago, now it happens at every little turn. w00t> I didn't inspect all the bolts in the seat. I did take a look/feel below on the rails and everything I could get to was tight. I think the problem is further up in the...

    Help! Driver seat is loose

    I started noticing the driver seat in my car being loose in turns. I can feel it move right under the butt, but the rest of the seat (back, sides) are firm. I have tried pulling and pushing the seat from side to side on the rails, and it is not loose there, which makes me think it has...

    If you are involved in the street racing culture...

    First of all thanks a bunch for all the responses. Regarding being sketchy. I must admit I don't know a whole lot about my friends thesis, so I can't go into details about it. I was recently on vacation in Denmark, and he told me he was interested in getting to talk to someone from the states...

    If you are involved in the street racing culture...

    Numbles> I think you are right. I'd just want my friend to talk to Mustang owners instead of ricers, as I like that car better. Thanks for the advice though. I have found a bunch of links for him to check out regarding street races. I know of some street race locations in Denmark where he is...

    If you are involved in the street racing culture...

    I think the police has better methods of getting involved than having someone submitting a post for them, besides my friend is from Denmark. Hehe, I do understand the avatar making you wonder :), but for what it's worth, this is not related to any police investigation.

    If you are involved in the street racing culture...

    I have a friend who is interested in talking to some of you who's involved in the street racing culture. He is studying at the university right now, eventually wanting to work with performance tuning of cars and is going to write a thesis about street racing. If some of you wouldn't mind...

    0-60 times are not good, is it me or my car?

    Great, I think I am going to have a bit of fun tonight with the car. :nice:

    0-60 times are not good, is it me or my car?

    Oh yeah, I suddenly didn't take offense to those peoples advise telling me that my shifting is wrong, because it is. I just didn't appreciate a few of the posts which seemed a little arrogant (laughing at my rpm's and telling me that I was wasting their time). The rest (95%) of the posts were...

    0-60 times are not good, is it me or my car?

    Obviously I wasn't doing the shifts, rpm's and clutch correct. My apologies for not being a stuntdriver like a couple of the people who posted and wasting the same mulletheads' time reading the post. Check the subject line next time and if you think it sounds like a waste, don't open and read...

    0-60 times are not good, is it me or my car?

    ModularMike281, I appreciate your description of the technique I have to use. I'll try the tips out and see if I get the perfect launch, because I am sure I need to learn something. 3.8L_of_Pain, it was great that you did that calculation, which explains part of why I feel so slow (the other...

    0-60 times are not good, is it me or my car?

    Thank for the tips. I forgot to mention that I live at a fairly high altitude (1 mile/Denver), so that affects it a bit but I don't believe it justifies those times though. I ran with a full tank yesterday and it sounds like my launches needs practice, so I am going to try that out today as...

    0-60 times are not good, is it me or my car?

    I got my Diablo Predator programmer today and it made the car feel different, however since I was out testing the tune I thought I'd do a few 0-60 times and they were not good. I need some advice from the pro racers in here :). You be the judge whether it may be me or the car. I have no...

    Nick, thanks for the detailed response. I will read up on your posts and see how it went. It actually sounds like something I will be able to do myself :D

    where should I buy the vt stage 1 cams from?

    Great, and if I get impatient I may PM you, hope that's ok. Do you have a link to any good step-by-step tutorial you are going to use? Or do you just go at it?
