    Another Gt Goes Down - Defective Heads!!!

    Awesome answer Jen. :nice: A couple of things bother me about the original post as well. The poster has never posted before. This really bugs me - someone who never posted on Stangnet - and I see it often - to make major complaints about a Mustang recently purchased. A lawyer that...

    Stick vs. Auto (not that again!)

    I have an auto '95 GT. My son has the same, but the 'vert. As for performance of an automatic: My son has done a little tranny work. He has added a FR high stall torque converter, A tranny cooler, a Lentech valvebody, a TwEECer programmer (yup, the tranny in this model is electronic too)...

    Mustang GT vs Mazda RX-8, Can't decide which to buy

    Just saw in the paper this morning: All RX-8 cars are being recalled. Seems if left idling at a high speed causes 02's to melt, harnesses, other exhaust components and THE GASTANK TO MELT! The fix is reprogramming the computer. This fix will probably also affect performance.

    E cam too much

    I don't know if you know the 94/95 computer, but the only way you can tune them is with a) A very expensive TwEECer [and interfacing laptop], or b) a custom burn. If the guy is on a budget, the custom burn/ EEC tuner [not including laptop] and custom grind cam will cost about eight times...

    E cam too much

    According to Ford, if you have the AODE and install an "E" cam, you *WILL* need to change your torque converter. In most cases an "E" cam will pass smog tests. Ford Racing now sells 3200 stall converters pretty darn cheep for the AODE.

    Hiya Mario - it's looking good! If some crappy weather comes, give a try at polishing the intake!

    SRT-4 can wax a '05 Mustang GT?

    Not stock. A front wheel drive car cutting a 1.7 60 ft? Absolutlely no way. 2.4 Stock ARE NOT 306 WHP...

    05 M3 vs 05 GT

    Alpina is wrong choice. Alpina is the equivalent to Roush, Saleen and Shinoda.

    Mods to improve gas mileage?

    Folding bicycle in the trunk? Why bother? When you buy a 'Stang, gas milage should be the furthest thing from your mind... A more free flowing intake might help, but probably the only mod(s) that would make any difference for you would be pulleys and a chip tuner.

    Would you like a more powerful GT? Would you sacrfice the V8 engine for it?

    Low end Torque. Nothing better. The V8 has FAR more potential. Add a KB twinscrew.

    Anyone else likes this weather ?

    I have always wondered how the natives used to live here years ago. We go from -40*C to 40*C in just a few months. The cold with the vicious wind and all that snow, to 100% humidity in the 35*C heat, without as much as a leaf twitching in the trees for days. They have my respect. Both...

    I think the Bulletts look better. Just lower the ride properly.

    350Z or 05 Mustang GT?

    Latest sales figures for 350Z sales in 2005: 6,594 (decrease in sales from prev yr = 18%) Latest stang figures for 2005 sales: 61,820 (increase in sales from prev yr = 19 %) I wonder how much Mustang sales have hurt the 350Z? From these figures, it must have had an impact.

    BEST way to clean MAF?

    Spray it with electronic cleaner - don't touch it - it's too easy to break.
