    Where to get Motorcraft parts??

    Hey guys, So I'm doing my first oil change on my stang this weekend. I've read about all of the motor oils, and decided with no previous synthetic, and since my stang is getting up there in miles, I'm just going to stick with the factory Motorcraft oil/oil filter. My question is though, can...

    mgw shifter

    Yeah, the shift stops are the allen wrench scews that were orginally holding the shifter in place, so it could not move in shipping. Since you have the TR3650 tranny, it's suggested not to use those, and you should've backed them all the way out, and removed them (that's what I did). Also, I...

    broke and shock help

    Okay, it was kinda hard to read what you're saying...but I think you're interested in shocks/springs... I think most people would agree with me that it's not a good idea to cut your springs, even if it's just half a coil. The spring rate is designed with all coils of the spring, and could end...

    Rear spoiler

    Yeah, I want to know what kind GSTANGU has, it looks like a stock wing, but is different than normal GT wing. Anyone know how to install the 03-04 Cobra wing on a GT...is there modification necessary, or just bolt on??

    Can You Hear Your Intake???

    Hey guys, So I decided to drive the other day without my radio on full blast, like I usually have it. Little did I know, this whole time, I have been missing a symphony coming from underneath my hood (my intake). In the low RPM's, under throttle, I think I can hear the intake making it's...

    New pics of the Black GT

    yeah, I really like the black on chrome look!! Your car looks very nice, like how you kept in clean and simple, but one thing I would consider IMO: the current rear wheels just don't quite fill up the wheel well (I would get spacers if you end up keeping them). That's the only thing I would...

    underdrive pulleys...good mod?

    Yeah, I heard that the pulleys are a good mod. They are usually good for 5-10 hp & 7-15 ft lb tq. Plus, low-end acceleration is increased & gas mileage too!! Only negatives I have heard are the lack of voltage to power the accessories: a/c/stereo, etc... and that the install is tricky. One...

    Pedals=PITA!!!

    I'm assuming you mean the "dead" pedal...you have to pop your lower door molding up (just pull hard, but be careful). It should pop up with relative ease. Now you can remove your curved interior piece that surrounds the hood latch release. This will reveal the 2 10mm bolts that hold the dead...

    What to do next "thread" ???

    There are quite a few things you can do to your stang. I would recommend a shifter (about $200.00--assuming you are a 5spd). I recently got the MGW, very nice piece. Shorter shifts, tighter gearbox, easier to nail speed shifts, plus the handle is not extremely low, so you don't have to reach...

    mgw blue?

    Well, when I ordered my MGW from stangmods.com, I was given the choice of handles (red, blue, or orange). I just went with orange because I knew it was somewhere in the middle of the two, and I didn't want it to be too low. I'm not sure if I would've gotten a whole different shifter/shifter...

    Got Some Pics

    yeah, springs would certainly make your car look sportier!! But, still looks good though. Personally, I like the dark tint for black cars, just looks better IMO. I would go as dark as possible, but that's just me. Nice car though!!:nice:

    Pedals=PITA!!!

    So, I went to install the Ford Racing aluminum pedals today, thinking it would be a breeze. Boy was I wrong!!!:nonono: The dead pedal was easy, save for the wiring harness attached to the bracket was holding on for dear life. The accelerator pedal was semi-easy, just took some patience...

    suspension question

    I also have the Mach 1000 audio, and it is pretty heavy, but not that heavy. Maybe 30-40 lbs tops..:shrug: I wouldn't imagine the spring companies don't do anything differently to compensate. However, I noticed a HUGE difference when I filled my first tank of gas after the springs/shocks. Car...

    56k warn..even more pics, sorry about the vw

    Hey Fluffy, Car looks good man, I personally would do an orange/black scheme, but that is just me. Wheels look good on the car too, but what springs do you have again?? I thought I remember you having the Eibachs, but I think my Pro-Kit lowered my stang a little more than yours...:shrug: I...

    2002 mustang gt need info

    Yeah, you should be careful about the transmission. I lucked out with my 02 GT, apparently the previous owner decided not to do a lot of racing! Anyways, just make sure everything feels smooth, and that it goes into every gear okay. Other than that, just make sure the engine pulls like it...

    good shocks/struts

    I went with the Tokico HP's on my stang. I have been very happy with them, keeps the ride nice and smooth, while providing excellent handling. It basically depends on how much money you are willing to spend. I didn't want to drop the $500 + for bilsteins, but like with anything, you get what...

    Just installed MGW!!!

    Hey guys, So I spent my Saturday installing my MGW. What a good day!! It took me a couple of hours (changing the tranny fluid too). Wow, what can I say, the difference is unbelievable. I just wanted to make sure that everything I am feeling is normal.. It feels a little "notchy" compared...

    im having a hard time deciding on a midpipe. please help

    Also, what are you reasons for the mid pipe?? Are you looking for most available power, or is sound more important to you?? X pipes generally make more power, but can sound more high-pitched or raspy...where as H pipes don't make quite as much power, but have a deeper more "hotrod" sound. It...
