    2006 mustang brakes

    true, manufacturers now set the rears to apply more pressure a little quicker to prevent front end dive. My SIL has a 2006 Cad STS, his rear pads went out at 25,000 miles. The fronts were fine.

    Are these S197 seats?

    our 06 V6 with the Pony pkg has those exact seats. The rear levers to flip the seat forward will break off immediately. But they're comfy seats.

    OUCH - FX Mustang

    I think it was installed properly, but as it one of the weld in kits it wasn't the proper bar for hard core racing. Both driver and passenger walked away, so it did it's job. Obviously a bar that is welded to a couple plates welded to the floorpan is not adequate for the severity and type of...

    Do you need a tune for an X pipe and axle back????

    what he said, no tune required for a catted X-pipe.

    SOMEONE BACKED INTO MY '07 GT/CS HELP!

    well TRY the painless dent guy, if it doesn't work you'll have to take more extreme measures. If you have a crease in the panel the dent removal won't get it out.

    Need Mellow, Least Drone Mufflers

    I was thinking that too. Or even some short resonators between the mufflers, and the center exhaust. That won't fix the rattle, but if it worked you can at least plug it open and live with it. That's a crazy (expensive) system Saleen has. In theory it looks good, but talk about over complicating...

    13.90.....a big mahalo to stangnet!

    you didn't put the V6 pony grill, and did I see tri-bar running horse emblems instead of GT emblems on the fenders?, on your car to trick unsuspecting drivers into thinking you have a V6 did you ? Hmmmm ? :rolleyes:

    13.90.....a big mahalo to stangnet!

    I haven't seen the orange Shelby, but I will keep an eye out for it. My wife and I just recently started getting involved with some Mustang activities around the Portland area, so we don't know many Mustangers yet. But we will. We're out in the Battleground area often. I have 1 daughter that...

    Got some Red

    NICE !! I did the spray on variation after I couldn't find the brush-on type. Will look a little harder for brush-on to do the other car as the spray on was a little messy and a pain in the rear. I too did red on the silver car, thinking yellow or blue for the black car.

    hot lapping, track tips

    20-30 minute sessions on a road course won't hurt it. You will probably experience some brake fade, but you'll know when that happens so you can back off a little til they cool a bit. Alot of people have a dedicated set of brake pads for the front that they swap in and out for track days. Your...

    Mods to beat a stock 03-04 cobra?

    what will you do if you DO build your car and beat him, then he upgrades ? You upgrade, then he upgrades, on and on. Not that there's anything wrong with that, I'm just sayin. There always someone faster out there somewhere. Once you start on the faster than the next guy trail your life may not...

    body kit for a decent price

    rygenstormlocke said it right, body kits usually end up looking like a 1.6 liter civic with a HUGE wing and all kinds of ill fitting parts grafted on. My advice; find a look you like, and research that until you know what it will take to achieve that look. Some people like to put GT front...

    Throttle Body Spacer

    so you're like most of us. You want a nice fast car that will do OK at a drag strip, at a road course yet still be streetable. That's how most people here do theirs. Slightly lowered suspension for handling, some engine mods for some increased power, etc. Most people here list their mods in...
