    Carbon Fiber hoods un-painted too ricey?

    Amen. Too many of you guys are conservative about many ideas, but this one I think is just absurd. Either you like the look of unpainted CF or you don't... It's so redundant to argue this point because everyone has their opinion. I don't like cars in any color other than Black, White, Grey...

    2 Silver 05's Spotted in LA!!

    I was heading westbound on the 10 a few months ago, when up ahead i spotted a peculiar looking car heading the opposite direction (on the other side of the divider, of course) . I nearly swerved my 'stang as my head followed the car covered in black camo, and only after it had passed did I...

    WINGS vs. WINGLESS

    99+ a wing/spoiler is a must. The protruding rear bumper is emphasized on wingless cars, making it look like its got an overly bulging rear end. Some kind of compensation is required...

    Now, imagine if the struts supporting the trailer had failed right when you took that pic... :bang:

    a race between a 99+ auto vs manual

    I'm stepping up to an 04 5spd soon... I'm just so sick of auto. My only beef w/ the 04 are those nasty 40th anniversary badges. They don't look as sleek as my current "GT" badges....

    Starting a Tool Set...

    Okay, heres the lowdown. I have next to no under-hood knowledge with my GT, and I wanna change that. The only way to learn is through experience, right? So I've decided that I want to install the mods I get myself. Starting with simple stuff like CAI, midpipe, catback, pulleys, etc., and moving...

    a race between a 99+ auto vs manual

    I would assume the auto would take it with a shift kit. Sure the 5spd can launch nicely, but the loss of speed while shifting will make a difference. That plus the tq converter... dunno. Probably be somewhat close either way. Sorry for the double post. :nice:

    a race between a 99+ auto vs manual

    I have a 2002 auto, stock. My friends Integra GS-R rated at 170hp and like 130tq can almost keep up with me when I floor it from a dead stop. I think I have the slowest 99+ 4.6 on the road.

    Best LEGAL mid-pipe in Cali

    I've got a few questions for those of you with answers... I live in Los Angeles, and every time I read about how bad we get shafted on the legality of aftermarket parts, I get pissed. Everything from tint, front plates, smog, etc... anyways... Since every aftermarket exhaust piece will...

    Good beginning for a GT?

    Don't you mean 4x2? :rolleyes: I agree, my buddies are going offroading in their F150's and Rangers next weekend, they invited me to come along since I have more clearance than most of them :nonono:

    Common problems with a 99+ GT???? Please Help.

    Only technical problems I have found with my '03 AOD GT (15,000 miles) are these: Squeaky Windows (easy fix, just a recurring problem) Tread Life (burnouts/patches = irresistible) Tickets (both parking and moving violations, 'stangs are attention whores :banana: )

    5-Spd Issues? Advice...

    Sup Stangers... Well for all the time that Tremec thread has been up, I'll admit I haven't payed much attention to it. I'm not quite techno-savvy with the 4.6, and my 'stang is an AOD to boot. Anyhow, I was considering trading in for a new Mach 1 or GT, with the 5 speed, cause I keep...
