    Make sure you tighten your lugs...or else!

    Exactly what I was going to say. :rlaugh:

    I can see the headline now "Ex police officer wrecks while street racing."

    What would you do in this situation

    Sorry youre wrong, an auto with a higher stall and jmod, will be faster in the 1/4 than a manual car with the same performance mods. And not only on just hp cars. Yes the 4r70w leaves something to be desired stock, but it can be a formidable tranny when built right.

    I hit a bear.

    Well I have some good news for you, 1. It wasnt a 40th anniversary mustang. All 04s had the 40th badge on the fender but yours was not a true 40th car. Those where burgandy with beige stripes. 2. You can get a used mustang because they arent sports cars :) Seriously sucks about your car...

    Roush vs. Saleen

    Saleen by far, performance is about the same. But imo Saleen has better quality materials used. I am not talking about making a clone, I am talking about buying the real thing. My dad is looking at the 07 S281 SC and Stage III Roush and the Saleen has much better materials. The leather is...

    New car (byby stang)

    Wouldnt it be souped up GT instead of stripped? :) But I agree the anniversay packages add no value at all really. Just a stipe on the hood and a few other cosmetic junk. But seriously that is one ugly car. I dont blame people for trading for different cars, but a 1995 Saab with 125,000 +...

    DHL stopped by today

    Watch the lines, both mine leaked from them. I had to replace them. I am not the first one either.

    my baby's gotta go

    A sedan is just as if not more practical than an SUV or minivan. Jsut as much room, less likely to roll over, better mileage, and its not a gay ass minivan.

    I wish Ford would make a roadster!

    I wasnt making up the dimensions, the ford is bigger in every way and much heavier. What is there to argue about? Yeah I have seen prices of each. That is because dealer order them with every single option and even still they are 26-27K. The fact remains you can order a Solstice for 21 and...

    Anybody sold or traded in a Mach lately?

    The local ford dealer here had two Azure blue mach 1s. 1 - 2004 with 4,000 miles. They wanted 22,000 and it sat for quite a while. It recently did sell though but no idea how much. 2 - 2003 with 40,000 miles. They wanted 17,000 and its still there. Your mileage may vary, look it up on...

    Air bag Suspension

    Why? Cars with the performance Air ride suspensions handle just as well as any suspension kit. Plus you get the ability to adjust ride height, have good ride quality, and still have a nice tight suspension. Its expensive but a top notch setup.

    so what do YOU like??

    With the top down of course there is more wind noise, but with the windows and top up I honestly dont notice much wind noise and my car has 80K+ on it. Of course its a tad louder, but that all goes away when you drop the top on a nice sunny day like today and just listen to the t-trim and...

    my baby's gotta go

    Plus two, they are awesome cars. My wife would have bought one except her dad is a Gm employee so she got her G6 for like 6K off sticker. Btw the G6 is a pretty nice car too.

    Thinking about sell my Stang

    For about that much money you can get a 4r70W built with a new stall that will easily beat a manual car with the same mods. www.bc-automotive.com I got a quote with a 3800 billet stall good for 1000whp or so $2500 installed with a cooler. If you dont need the billet stall you could save a...

    I know why autometer discontined the gauges

    Neither are O/R X or H pipes and people still use those.

    I wish Ford would make a roadster!

    LOL the Solstice is a TOTALLY different car than a V6 mustang. They are aimed at a demographic that couldnt be further away. The V6 mustang, especially vert is geared for people (ladies :) ) who want the mustang look and convertible but dont care about performance. The Solstice is a...

    so what do YOU like??

    WTF mustangs are supposed to be noisy. But really other than my exhaust its pretty quiet with the top up. Before the bassani I could easy carry on a convo on a cell phone if need me with the other person not being able to tell anything.

    Gear Installs - Fort Wayne, IN area

    Anybody know of a place that is reasonable on gear installs? I had my last set done at EPP in Columbia City, but the Ford tech they had left so they arent doing gears anymore. I paid $350 for them to do a compelte rebuild (axles, gears, bearings, carrier, etc.) The places I have checked...
