    Any tires better than Nitto NT 555s for the money?

    I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I noticed the only DR you can get for the stock 17x8's is the Nitto 555's. I don't think the BFG DR2's come in a size that would fit them, right? What is the best DR option for stock 17x8 rims?

    Let's Play a Game! (This IS Tech)

    I'm speechless. That just makes me scared for all those who are running components from them that have similar weld issues and don't even know it. Where there is one, there is always another.

    3.73's vs 4.10's

    :bang: This is just great, just as I get my 4.10's delivered and scheduled to be installed this Sunday, I see a thread like this. Now you all have me questioning my decision to go with 4.10's. Oh well, I'm not going to change now.

    Magnaflow catback fitment issue...?

    I had/have the same issue with the driver's side tailpipe hitting the swaybar. I pulled out the tailpipe and muffler as far out as it goes and it just barely misses hitting the swaybar. I've heard a lot of people running into this issue. :shrug: :bang:

    Valve tap noises???

    I've had my '02 GT since November and there is one thing that always has bothered me. I have a noise that sounds like valve tap (which I doubt that is what it is) when the car is cold. I can hear it most right about 3k RPM. I'm not sure if that is it, but after the car warms up, it goes away. I...

    Granatelli

    I just got a set of Maximum Motorsport's LCA, let me tell you I am impressed. They are well built, the quality is second to none, they are made from thick tubular steel and are super solid. I got the street/strip ones with spherical bushings on the axle end and urethane bushings on the car side...

    How necessary is a gear install kit???

    I'm going to be getting some 4.10's installed sometime soon and right now I am buying the parts that I need. I am getting FRPP 4.10's, SpeedCal, and I have Ford synthetic rear-end fluid. My question is, I have seen the gear install kits that range anywhere between $40 and $120. They include...

    A few clips from my 1st drag experience

    You all should really try to run your cars at higher elevations. Here in Colorado at 5280 ft, the fastest I ran (keep in mind this is my first time at the track) was a 15.3 @ 93mph spinning my tires like crazy. Stock 99-04 GT's usually run somewhere around the 15.0 mark and high 14's with DR's...

    Anyone here with a Dell Axim X3 PDA?

    Have you tried going to the forums in www.aximsite.com ? They usually have very knowledgable people there. I'd help you if I could, but I got rid of my X3 for a X51v.

    First mod debate...

    Get a MGW shifter. I have one and I absolutely love it. It doesn't add power, but it definitely makes driving more fun, especially when racing. I always get compliments from people saying how quiet it is, and how short and firm the shift is. My brother has the Tri-ax, and it is very noisy, the...

    Can I convert my Magnaflow C/B to a Magnapack setup?

    From my understanding, the tailpipes are the exact same, it is just the flow tubes (the tubes between the h-pipe and muffler) are bent a little differently to get the round mufflers to match up with the tailpipes.

    Anyone useing FFRP LCA's

    I just got my MM LCA's in the mail, OMFG, they are beefy! They seem much stronger and higher quality than my old Steeda Alum. LCA's. I would strongly suggest MM, you can't go wrong.

    Automatic 01 Mustang GT will not shift out of park

    I had a problem on my '98 exactly like this...If you look under your dash on the brake pedal arm, you will see a switch with a couple wires coming off of it. That is the switch that makes your brake lights go on and allows you to switch out of park on an Auto. On mine, one of the wires was...

    Wideband and A/F bung location on X-pipe

    Really??? I didn't know that. That is good info. I probably won't be running at Mathews since I just ran there March 4th..but our Mustang club will be having a dyno day up there May 15th. You should check it out. PM me if you want more info about our club and/or the event.

    Wideband and A/F bung location on X-pipe

    You are right and wrong...I'm not sure what the future will bring in regards to power adders, except I know I will probably get one one day. The main purpose of this thread was to find out best location for a bung on a catted x-pipe. I figure if I am getting the x-pipe, why not put the bung in...
