    Thoughts about Nitrous

    Yes, bottle pressure IS the big pain in the butt; even a full bottle won't be at the proper pressure on a cold day and even a warm bottle chills pretty quick once you start spraying. That's why I like the NANO system, I know it's pricey but it's the price of having spray that works when you need...

    Thoughts about Nitrous

    I've never been totally happy with the juice. It's too big a pain in the butt. It's really only feasible for track use anyway and since I've developed such a boner for the road course I'm stripping the NOS system out of my car. However, from garage tech discussions I'm pretty sure this is the...

    Going to buy a 2010 Camaro

    No doubt, Bob Lutz is a complete moron. I remember seeing him in a TV interview at a auto show in 2006. He was being asked what GM needed to do to better compete and his answer was "We need to develop more cars that don't require incentives to move them off dealer lots". DUH!!!!!! Don't worry...

    Just had my track weekend...FUN! And some scary parts.

    I don't know what your beef is with the lineup you were with. I'd love to have a day when I'm the only "big" car. Where I track, it's usually me, maybe one other Mustang, and then an assortment of Vette's, Porsche 911's, Ford GT's, ect. I was sitting on the grid once when I realized that I was...

    Spark plugs and carbon

    Something to burn off the existing carbon? Easy, Nitrous Oxide :D Seriously, it's not a bad idea. It probably wouldn't work but with the cost of pulling the heads to extract broken plugs anything is worth trying.

    GT Brakes

    I'm sorry I've bruised your fragile ego. My most humble apologies good sir...........however, you did ask if I had any more questions, did you not? If you don't want the answer, don't ask the question. Actually, my "smart aleck" response was in response to your entire previous post, which I...

    Gas prices too high? Get your 100% electric GT500 pre-ordered. :)

    :lol: That might work! Wait a minute. Won't that high power stereo rob me of some horsepower? Damn, now I'll need underdriven amplifiers!

    Gas prices too high? Get your 100% electric GT500 pre-ordered. :)

    Bitch all you want, but I think we're looking at the future here. A THOUSAND lb/ft TQ at idle? WOW! Sure, it's expensive now, but the newest stuff always is. It will come down as time passes. Now I'm not trading my fire breathing V8 for an electric motor tomorrow, or ever, but something...

    GT Brakes

    Yes. Have you ever heard of a spell check? I believe the question was about the clutch, not the brakes. To answer your question, I have been running DOT 4 fluid for two years now without any issues whatsoever. DOT 3, DOT 4,and DOT 5.1 fluids are all compatible with each other, they just have...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    I seem to remember reading a mag article about the SRT8 Challenger that said it was going to run the quarter around 13.5 with a 0-60 in the "low 5 second range". I remember thinking, "sounds like the stats for a Mustang GT", and wondering who would spend 40 grand for a Challenger that'll just...

    35mpg Mustang GT

    Oh come on! I drive a semi and I can say with the utmost confidence that I have absolutely NO fear of being injured by a Mustang rear ending my truck. If the guy just bumped me I probably wouldn't even feel it. And if he hit me hard then he'd just decapitate himself, ruin a twenty dollar set of...

    Handling questions...

    Oops, missed one. Yes, I actually had the Steeda Proaction struts/shocks before. I really couldn't tell that much difference from the stock ones. The stock dampers are pretty stiff so it's really better to get adjustable ones. I love mine. On the street I run the Tokico's six turns back from...

    Handling questions...

    Oh wow, this is going to end up being the preeminent suspension thread! Yes, the sway bars will make a big difference, but only if you're really pushing the car. Just going to the grocery store you won't even know they are there. I'm not sure how you would mark the camber so you can...

    Handling questions...

    Well, you're not sparing any expense. Getting the caster perfect is kind of going overboard on doing it right, caster's really not a big deal but from the factory mine is not only out of the Ford specs but the sides are not even. Being a little bit of a perfectionist, I would like to remedy that...

    Midwest Mustang Madness Sept. 20th & 21st!

    That line thing was a joke. I guess it wasn't funny. Thanks for the map.

    Midwest Mustang Madness Sept. 20th & 21st!

    Does anyone know how many sessions they usually get out there? And how long are they? How long is the front straight? Where's the nearest hotel? Do they have pump gas available? OH, WHO AM I KIDDING!!! To heck with putting it in writing, I've put it in cash! :D Pre-registration PAID...

    Brake Upgrade Options??

    Larger rotors and especially larger calipers pretty much wipe out any and all wheels with any kind of lip on them. I love the deep dish look but if you want bigger brakes you are S.O.L. Sorry.

    Handling questions...

    Well, except for the manufacturer of the springs, you've listed the major mods that I've done with mine suspension wise. I don't know what you're planning for the car. (street/drag racing/open track days) but that will make a huge difference that I think you'll be happy with if corner carving's...

    Best decision?

    Please don't listen to the advice of anyone who is comparing a S197 to a Mach1. YES, the S197 is light years ahead of a '01- '04 Mustang GT. But an '04 Mustang GT is NOT an '04 Mach1! The Mach1 was a totally different animal and the 4V motor in that thing is light years ahead of the 2V. I have...
