    My new stang

    Wow neat color. It almost looks like a gunmetal grey from that pic. So you traded straight up for your Suburban? That's a pretty sweet deal :nice:

    Christmas all over again!

    NICE. So how much does a PI swap end up costing? You getting it installed at a shop? After I get gears and maybe a shifter this summer, a PI swap will be next :D.

    Revving at other stangs

    I was turning right into my parking lot, and he was going straight. He was coming up behind me the lane to the left of me, and I just gave it a quick blip, looked over, and low and behold I see him fliipping me the bird. If I would have been going straight and he was beside me and did that, I...

    Revving at other stangs

    I was just wondering what peoples opinion is on this. If another stang is driving by you, and they give their engine a rev... do you view that as an insult or just a friendly gesture amongst stang owners? I mean, if you see the guy glaring at you and revving his car, then obviously it isn't...

    Which exhaust to buy??

    My exhaust (see sig) sounds pretty sweet, especially from outside the car, it's different too as not many stangs have it I don't think. Good performance and not obnoxiously loud, but not stainless. Having said that, I would still like to buy full Bassanni for it some day :D.

    Gears in the winter?

    The car is driven year round, not just in the winter. I guess I should have made that more clear :D. Like a poster said above, RWD in the winter is actually nice. FWD around every slippery corner I feel like I'm going to slide right into the snowbank, where with a RWD you just blip the...

    Gears in the winter?

    Lol, cause I love mustangs and it actually handles pretty well in the winter with the tires i have. Plus I completely despise how a FWD handles.

    Gears in the winter?

    Right on, thanks guys. I think i'll go with the 3.73's as I'll be doing the install with a friend and don't want to mess with anything other than Ford gears (3.90's). Red2000GT can you recommend a place to buy the gears from around our area? Does Performance Plus have any?

    Gears in the winter?

    What gear ratio would be best for a 1997 Mustang GT 5spd that is winter driven and has the occasional highway trip (upwards of 1.5 hours) (edit: driven in summer too)? I'm tempted to go 4.10's... but I don't want to get them and regret it in the winter or while driving on the highway. I've got...

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    Yeahh I want to appologize for that post I made. I came on here to rant when I shouldn't have. I ended up getting the job done at my GF's dad's shop. I just ended up wasting so much time trying to find the right tools for the job and then finding out there were more I didn't need. I should...

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    Well, me and a buddy attempted to do the install, and it would have went great if we knew that we'd need all the f***ing oddball tools to take the damn brakes off. A torx bolt and a female torx bolt hidden by the small boot thing? Jesus man, warn a guy about this kind of **** before you go off...

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    Cool thanks. The funny thing is, is that I booked an appointment to have them install it, but then changed my mind. They ordered the hub, but not the retainer nut. So right now I have the hub but have to wait until Monday to get the retainer nut. How were they going to attach the hub without...

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    Does the retainer nut have to be replaced on 97-98 Mustangs?

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    Ok, I can only afford to replace one of my hub assembly's right now, and I need to know which side... When I'm driving, and the wheel bearing gets quiet when I turn right; what side needs replacing? I checked for in and out play, and there was a little bit on my front-right wheel. But the...

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    Hey right on! I'm going to cancel my appointment on Friday, go pick up the parts, and me and a buddy will do the install. Gotta love saving $$ :). Thanks a bunch :nice:.

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    I went to the local ford dealer and got the tech to come for a drive, and he said the front-left wheel bearing was the problem. I was wondering, can you get the bearing separate from the hub, or do you have to buy the whole thing? They said you had to get the whole thing, and it was $124...

    Howling noise at highway speeds??

    To expand on my problem...it starts quietly around 50 km/h, then gets really loud, then quiets down a bit again. It isn't a pulsating howl, it's just really loud (not very deep though) around 80-85 km/h. Also, to narrow it down a little, it quiets right down when I take a right curve on a...
