    Run front brakes on the rear?

    Gonna sell the stuff. I don't have the stockers anymore though. Right now I have the Cobra R kit up front, still stock in the rear. I won't have the brakes done until next year some time though. I am doing new wheels, and the 14" fronts and 13" rear brakes. I should be done with it by...

    Run front brakes on the rear?

    Looks like the brake kit is 3750ish. Includes Brembo 4 piston calipers, Mclaren e-brake calipers, two piece drilled rotors, and pads for all four calipers. To get the bracket made will be about 550 since all we have to do is load a program into the machine and start it up. You will also need...

    Run front brakes on the rear?

    I am all over this. Down side is cost. It is possible. I am working on doing a set of 14" fronts and 13" rears. Both using Grand Turismo Brembo 4 piston calipers. You actually need two calipers in the rear. One for the e-brake, and one for mad stopping. You could save some money, and...

    Anyone tried cutting el-glow gauges to make it better

    Can't cut them. We tried something similar. As soon as you cut them open, they stop working. At least the ones from NR. Can't be sure about all of um since we only did it to one. I do agree though. That would make the idea more attractive to me...................

    REAR BRAKE UPGRADE - I FOUND IT

    I am working on getting a visit to see how he did it. I know the company that he says made the kit. They are down in Irvine, CA. I think I have seen the car on the road here, but never paid much attention. Just cool to know it is possible. Just one more thing for me to do before my...

    REAR BRAKE UPGRADE - I FOUND IT

    I found this. Now I just need to get in touch with him and see how he did it. The best part is, he lives in the same town as me. HES LOCAL. SWEET. Anyhow, looks like he retained the factory caliper for e-brake use, and added the brembo. I will post the results when I find out how he...

    Wiring horn to brakes? Anyone ever done this?

    I did the same thing to someones turn signal once. Not to hard at all. You just have to make sure the polarity is correct. I think a mustang horn rests at 12V, and is activated by ground. The brake wire is the oposite in a stang. This would result in the need for a relay to change the 12V...

    whats that company that makes subframes for sideexhaust?

    SPINTECH They look pretty beefy, and seem to work very well with Side exhaust. Just send them an e-mail about their SFCs, and they will send you some detailed pics and pricing for their SFCs.

    remote start

    Done a few over 400 in the past 10 years. They are all basically the same. If you can follow polarity and a wiring diagram, have a VOM, and know where to find and how to test the wiring in your car, its not too difficult. Just time comsuming. In reality, You will have starter...

    Guys with big brakes.....!

    I am not saying all replicas rub. I just bought a set of no name cheap wheels to store the car. They were the cheapest I could find at the time. I just was pointing out that my generics rub. As long as you get the correct back spacing as shown, you will be just fine.

    Guys with big brakes.....!

    Don't know about deep dish. I have a set of FRPP 17X9 Cobra Rs, and they BARLEY clear. I also have a set of cheap Cobra R replicas in the same size I use to store the car, but they don't fit. The spokes actually rub, so I have to get a set of spaces to put them on. The calipers are great...

    coil-overs, struts and c/c plates are in

    Last night I remembered another trick. A friend of mine bought a set of coil overs that were makin lots of noise. He went and bought some rubber coating that you are supposed to dip tools into. He dipped his upper mounts, and filed off the excess so he could get the perch to sit nie and...

    coil-overs, struts and c/c plates are in

    Really odd that you have noise. I have none. There is a part out there called a sister spring. They are really tough to find. I mean super tough usually. They fit coil overs and maintain some pressure to keep things tight, but have no effect on ride at all. I'll do some digging and see...

    Absolute Worst Day of my LIFE!

    I am thinkin April Fools too, however, this has happened to a friend of mine before. He stored his car for the winter. He always had fire, theft and valndalism though. Only costs about 8 bucks a month. The point is, his homeowners insurance foot the bill. I had my car broken into once...

    Where to find Brembo rear brakes?

    I went through this with the Brembo rep at Buttonwillow Raceway in Cali. They are never gonna make one for our cars for two reasons. First, the rear brakes see minimal use in our cars, and second the e-brake system is incorporated into our rear calipers meaning they would have to...

    00 stang with 05 conversion

    Looks like a cartoon car. I am kinda partial to the 00 look. I don't see why they though this would be a good idea. I wonder how many of these kits they have sold.

    Weld in SFCs CAN be removed........

    Poor mans lift = A set of 4"X10"X18" ramps, and 8 solid cinder blocks. I am sure you can figure it out from there. I have a lift, but I haven't been able to keep the car outside of the garage long enough to get it installed. It just never stops raining. Soon the weather is supposed to...

    Weld in SFCs CAN be removed........

    I have been skeptical about side exhaut for a long time, but when I found a brand new SVO kit I bought it. I knew I had to get my sfcs out and get a new set of either PHPs, or spintechs. I am going with spintechs. Anyhow, the purpose of this thread is, you can remove welded in sfcs. I...
