    Squeak - passenger side front - Need help

    I have been searching the forums for a while and can't seem to find a post that describes the exact problem I am having. Basically, there is a metal on metal squeaking sound coming from the passenger front side of the car when I hit a bump. It only happens when I hit a bump at over 30 mph, like...

    CEL light still on after X-pipe install, need recommendations?

    Yes, they are the original O2 sensors and the car has 93K on it.

    CEL light still on after X-pipe install, need recommendations?

    I recently installed a VRS o/r x-pipe on my 96 GT. I installed the rear MIL eliminators to try to keep the CEL from coming on. Anyway it came on and my friend with an SCT tuner pulled the code. The code shows that the front O2 sensors are not heating up properly. I have researched and read that...

    which pipe for a stock car?

    I have a 96 GT with a magnaflow cat back (not magnapacks) and a VRS o/r x-pipe. I am very satisfied with the sound. The x-pipes are typically more raspy, but paired with the regular magnaflow it really smooths out the sound. I've heard that an h-pipe sounds good with the magnaflow as well. Just...

    Pics with a decent camera

    Thanks for the compliments everyone. My dad used to own it and it was always kept in the garage and never driven in bad weather. That really helped keep the paint in good shape and not turn that dull pink color that a laser red car can.

    Pics with a decent camera

    I just bought my wife a new camera and figured there is no better way to try it out than to take some pics of the stang. I just finished detailing it this weekend, and now I'm a believer in using a clay bar.:nice: 96 GT Conv. Laser Red, Magnaflow cat-back, VRS o/r x-pipe, 70mm...

    eibach pro kit

    I have the pro kit and would recommend doing cc plates. I had to do it to get the alignment done after I replaced the shocks/struts with tokico hp's. They couldn't get the alignment right until I did them, although it wasn't off by much. Just my .02.

    Lowering issues

    My car is dropped 2" and I would highly recommend getting new shocks/struts and c/c plates. I made the mistake of putting the springs on before the c/c plates and struts, so my recommendation would be to do it all at once, and then take it to get aligned. I went with the MM c/c plates and tokico...

    King Cobra Clutch + fidanza alum. flywheel

    A buddy of mine has a KC clutch in his garage with 20K miles on it. He told me I can have it for free because he does not have his mustang anymore, therefore, it is just taking up space in his garage. I needed a new clutch anyway, and with the money I will save I am looking at a Fidanza alum...

    Tokico HP's with 2" drop Question?

    I just got off the phone with American Muscle. The guy there told me that the HP's are a good choice for my application, but also said he is running KYB GR2's on his lowered mustang for 3 years with no problems. I know these are cheaper, but I haven't read many reviews about them. Are they any...

    Tokico HP's with 2" drop Question?

    I have a 96 GT conv. with a 2" drop. The car is a third car that I only drive on the street, and occasionally take a trip to the mountains with. I have decided on the tokico hp shocks and struts, but have read that with that drop I should get the ones for a fox body in the front. I have asked MM...

    What can Meguiars do for you!

    I had a similar problem with water stains so I tried the mothers clay bar. It worked great getting out the water stains. It takes a little time because you have to wax the car afterward, but I'd recommend trying it first. :nice:

    Final list for PI manifold & cam swap?

    First let me start by saying i spent about an hour searching through the old posts to find information about doing this swap on my car. I was planning on holding out to do the heads as well, but my stock NPI intake manifold had other thoughts and crapped out on me. I don't have the money right...

    Stang Suspension props

    I was looking to purchase tokico shocks from them, so this helps make my decision easier.

    Some pics of the mustang

    That is next on the list. I am saving my money to do the head swap, trick flows, lt's, x pipe, clutch, and 3.73's. I appreciate the compliment. This weekend was the first time my Dad saw it since I bought it from him 4 weeks ago. I think he regrets selling it to me for $500, especially now...

    Some pics of the mustang

    I have the eibach pro-kit. It made a HUGE difference in how the car looks. I also don't have any scrubbing problems. I have cc plates coming and will put those on next weekend. :nice:
