    Nice Weather = Clean Stang

    Looks nice man, there are few feelings better than washing my car, then drooling over it once I get home. Nothing is nicer than a freshly washed/waxed car with metal flake paint.... I live in downtown Richmond VA, and there aren't really any trees around me. I park under a street light, and...

    took some new pics w/white lettering tire paint

    Actually, I think it looks pretty damn good, with one exception. Kumho lettering is only on a small portion of the tire. The original white letters went most of the way around the tire. I think it may look a little better if you highlighted other areas to make it look like more of a...

    NEW MOD! Harness Bar!

    Looks great, and I also love your interior seats! Looks like a good mod, if you're more into racing.... My only concern is the 1/4" stock going from the cross bar to the mounting point. That is the key structural component. It doesn't matter how big the tubes are, it only matters how they...

    Spoiler or No Spoiler?

    I ordered mine without the spoiler as well. I just think it lends to a "cleaner" look overall. My main reasoning for it was that a) the spoiler is not functional, b) the spoiler blocks the rear view mirror line of sight, c) it adds extra weight, d) if I decided later to remove it, I'd have...

    Throttle Body Back Pass

    I really don't think it's that much of a concern. I haven't looked at detail under my hood yet, so I can't say for sure if there is coolant running through the TB or not. Either way, I would leave it though. The main reason that the coolant is there (if it is in these cars), is to prevent the...

    Exhaust note changed after being rear ended

    Thanks for the replies all... I appreciate the help. Damn Hedgehogrgc.... how hard were you hit? my damage wasn't nearly that bad. Despite mine looking pretty tame, trhe dealer still estimated $1800 in damage... I'm still impressed by how well the car held up, and how well it's built. One...

    Exhaust note changed after being rear ended

    Thanks for the replies all, I didn't even think to get it up on a lift and check it out.... Here I am trying to wedge myself under the car on the ground.... At least her insurance is covering everything (including a rental... do you think it's too much to ask for a Hertz Shelby?) Since the...

    rear burned

    I hadn't heard of this in the new rear ends, but makes me worry about mine. Granted, I've only got about 3k on the car, but the last thing I want to have is a busted differential. but hey, it could be worse..... you could be shooting flames out of your exhaust pipe, like the new F-250's...

    Exhaust note changed after being rear ended

    Hey all, I got rear ended yesterday, by some chick on a cell phone. Odd thing was I wasn't even that mad... with my luck, it was only a matter of time. My question is this, my passenger side exhaust tip is now slightly bend downwards, but I can't find any other damage to any of the exhaust...

    Does any body here NOT have the infamous front suspension thunk?

    No front end thunk here either.... I will admit, that if I don't shift correctly, I will get a slight thunk from the rear end, that I atribute to the backlash in the rear end gears. I'm still trying to re-learn stick with this damn electronic throttle......:bang: In any case, what is the...

    Just Added CDC Aggressive Chin What do you thin?

    I would never have thought of it, but with the black rocker panels, that looks awesome! Much more retro, and natural looking that just the plain chin spoiler. If I were you, I'd definitely paint the rockers flat black! Personally, I'd be worried about scraping around here. My stock car...

    Center Console

    I've wondered the same thing. So far, the only thing that I can find that will fit in the clip is my ipod mini. But even that is a little too thin, and falls out of the clip from time to time. I'm sure at some point, somebody in the aftermarket will find a way to attach something to the...

    Tire pressure sensor, and "limp mode"

    I have notice that only one quarter will stay in the change holder. but I'm still perplexed about the spot on the underside of the armrest. Nothing in the manual about it, nothing on here.... what is this damn thing for??? But seriously, the tire pressure thing.... any ideas?

    Tire pressure sensor, and "limp mode"

    Hey all, Lets say for a minute that I buy a new set of rear wheels and tires to be used only at the strip on my 07 GT. Obviously, I would rather not buy another set of tire pressure monitors for the secondary rear wheels. Therefore, at the track I would only have the sensors on the front...

    Longtube header install..

    As others said, the stock gasket should be fine. But while you're in there, I'd recommend getting a set of locking header bolts, to keep the bolts from backing out. There are many different kits and styles out there, just choose one that will prevent the bolts from moving. There are few...

    Another Tire Size Question

    yes, it will have a slightly taller side wall. Granted, the difference in height will only be about 4.5mm. I seriously doubt that 1/5th of an inch will be even noticeable. just curious, why do you want the taller side wall? just to fill in the gap in the wheel well?

    Why does my car constantly spam me?

    I also have wondered what that ad cost on the gas cap. Especially since BP stations are few and far between here in Richmond. Granted, Bp is affiliated with/owned by a few other major companies, but it's still an odd ad. It doesn't bother me, I still fill up at the cheapest place in town with...

    Car got bombed, need advice.

    I also live about 100 feet from a school. Granted, the grade school kids haven't caused me any problems, but the bums in the area have. It is a "transitional" neighborhood. Many time in the past few months, I have seen broken car windows etc, in the area, and was fed up with it. I called...

    Review of Gibson Axle-Back Exhaust

    Those sounds pretty damn nice. Love the deep rumble, plus I've got to find something to keep up sound wise with my friends built chevy nova SS. :D Personally I'll trying longtubes and X pipe to improve performance and sound first. Perhaps one day if I do decide to replace the mufflers, those...

    Need some cam help. . .

    Although the numbers looks fairly similar, I'd guess that those two cams are significantly different. The BBR cams have considerably more duration, and a slightly shorter lobe separation. If you draw out 19 degrees ( the difference intake duration) on a sheet of paper, it doesn't look like...
