    To stripe or not to stripe?

    Yeah its gonna be in black since my car is mineral gray any other color stripe might look like crap. EDIT: Heres the link with a pick of the ones that say "4.6L GT". All the other ones with the exception of the ones that say "GT 281" are on Americanmuscle.com...

    To stripe or not to stripe?

    Ok so its spring time and Im gonna start modding the GT but I also want to do some cosmetic mods along with the performance mods. I already have some 17 inch black Bullitts on order and I think I also want to do either a billet grille or the Mach 1 grille delete and then the honey comb piece for...

    Installed Steeda Under Pulleys

    Glad to hear you are happy with them. Pearl02 I noticed in your sig that you have Bullitt gauges. I also have a 2002 Mineral Gray GT and have been wanting to get my gauge cluster switched over to the Bullitt style cluster since it is reminisant of the old muscle car style gauges. Where did you...

    Stalker Hoods Who's Got Em? Need Pics!

    Agreed. Back when I was looking to buy a Bullitt I read Ford's description of it. Basically what they said they were trying to accomplish was make the GT model as plain as possible. Thats why they removed the side scoops and the rear wing and also blacked out the bracket around the pony on the...

    4th or 5th for cruising?

    I hardly EVER use 5th gear unless in on the highway or something like that. The only time I find myself using it is when Im messing around and really opening her up. Maybe thats why my mileage sucks. haha

    Easter Sunday 2008 PICS

    Ok so all day during work yesterday I was contemplating whether or not to wax the Mustang when I got home. Finally caved and stopped at the car wash on the way home washed and dried it BY HAND then drove home. Driving home I began to think "I dunno my hands are almost frozen from drying it...

    K&N filters are bad apparently???

    Thats what I thought but I did some research on K&N and apparently they were FIRST used back in the late 60s by desert offroad racers and became so popular because they outfiltered the paper filters of the era. I also just read that K&N has won more Baja-Style desert road races than all other...

    New sound started coming from the motor tonight, has me worried...

    Wierd because when my engine is cold it will idle at about 1000 RPMS and when I rev it a little there is no noise. But after it warms up it will idle a little under 1000 RPMS and when I rev it I hear the noise. Nothing when driving though.

    K&N filters are bad apparently???

    So are you saying my stock filter actually filtered the air better than the K&N filter than I paid $60 for? If so Im gonna be pretty pissed. hahaha.

    K&N filters are bad apparently???

    Ok so I just put in a K&N air filter into my car. Used em for years on other various cars and bikes Ive owned. Never had a problem and was always relatively fond of K&N. Just put one in a GT for the first time. So tonight Im at work and someone at work was like "Dude K&N isnt as good as you...

    How do I get these?

    Oh alright. Thanks for the help. Yeah I dunno I dont want em for my car but my boss used to own a couple 68 Fastbacks and he loves the oldschool look so he has his mind set on these. But the body style for a 2002 isnt exactly reminisant of a 68 fastback so they do look a little odd.

    New sound started coming from the motor tonight, has me worried...

    My car recently atarted making a similar noise. Mine only does it in neutral though. Like when I push the clutch in and rev it slightly it sounds perfectly normal. BUT when I put it in neutral and rev it with the clutch out it makes a slight grinding noise between 500 and 1000 RPMs. My car idles...

    How do I get these?

    Ok so I was just curious if anyone knows where to get these scoops that cover the rear side windows. I know they make them for the 2005+ models but I have seen various pics on the web of 2004 models and lower years with these same scoops. Here is one of the more recent pictures I have found. Im...

    Bad wheel bearing???

    Ok I tried searching the forums for a thread similar to what I was experiencing but I had no luck. I noticed that my car began making strange noises this winter. When I put the car in reverse I noticed as I pull out of my parking spot the car kind of makes a slight howling sound as I roll to a...

    royal purple FTMFL.

    I dont know about the tranny fluid but I know that a lot of guys at the drag strip swear by the Royal Purple motor oil. Techniqually its racing fluid so I heard it breaks down a lot faster than regular oil. I don't know how true this is but I run the Mobil 1 in my car.

    Clutch Clunk???

    Is it normal for it to make the clunk noise when the clutch is pressed in though? Because I don't really have it when I move the shifter. But prior to even touching the shifter and I push in the clutch I get a "CLUNK!".

    Clutch Clunk???

    Ok so I have noticed this since about two months after I bought the car. Sometimes when shifting and I push the clutch in I hear the clunk noise. I only get it when the car is moving and I am shifting gears. But then there are other times when it is really smooth. Actually most of the time it is...

    2002 V6 to V8 swap

    Hmm. Thats funny because in another recent thread that was in the "4.6L Talk" section you had this to say: "I guess things are more difficult down there for you guys, but up here (Canada) I've found an entire GT powertrain (motor, tranny and rear end) for 1k. That's with 25000 kms."...
