    New front brakes!!

    Hey fellow car nuts, I just upgraded the front brakes on my 07 Mustang GT to the 4-piston Brembo brakes that come on the Shelby GT500. Larger rotors and larger calipers = better stopping power. It never ceases to amaze me how many people work on making their cars go faster, (engine and...

    Best price on front brake upgrade?

    Wow, thanks for ALL the help guys. :rolleyes: Well, I ended up finding a GT500 take off set on s197 forums for $700, so I went with that.

    Best price on front brake upgrade?

    Hey guys, I've been wanting to upgrade the front brakes on my 07 GT for a while now. I was planning on going with the Shelby GT500 brake kit because I saw people selling kits online a while back for about $800. Of course I can't find anything like that online now. About the best deal I've...

    Tire Pressure Monitors, Are they needed?

    Before about 6 months ago, I would have told you they were stupid. "I can check my own damn tire pressure!" :mad: Then I had the sensor go off on the way to work one day, so I pulled over at a gas station. My right front tire was indeed almost flat. I had hit a nail or something and the...

    Granatelli Stroker Motor

    Sorry, but due to the experience I have with Granatelli in the past, I wouldn't trust them to wash my windows, much less build me an engine.

    Shelby was hit.. Need some advice regarding insurance.. Pics inside!!

    I would second your choice of Calliber collision. I've heard good things about them. As for the people that said that the middle car is also at fault for hitting you, that's not necessarily true. I was the middle car in an accident where the guy hit me from behind at about 40mph. There is...

    Shelby was hit.. Need some advice regarding insurance.. Pics inside!!

    Your pics don't work. Sounds like a load of BS to me. Mercury sucks. I think they're just trying to get out of paying to fix your car. I would try talking to your insurance company and see if they will fix your car without paying the deductible. Then they can go after Mercury and get the...

    How to clean Bullitt air filter?

    I guess not. I used to spray out my old K&N out with a hose. The FRPP guy said to clean the Bullitt filter with a toothbrush.

    How to clean Bullitt air filter?

    Hey guys, Did a search on this and didn't really find an answer. I was all set to buy a replacement air filter for my Bullitt CAI, but the Summit website says that it is a cotton filter that is reusable. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FMS-M-9601-B/ I called Ford Racing and was...

    Photo Tips

    Single Lens Reflex That's the old style of camera that had a mirror that would reflect light on to the image area. That's the "click" you hear when using an old style camera. The click is the mirror quickly moving to reflect light to expose the film and then going back to it's original...

    CDC CLASSIC CHIN SPOILER INSTALLED!

    Looks good. So how did you mount it? Did you use any of the tips you got? I'm thinking of getting this piece also, but leaving it flat black.

    Suspension work over

    Don't worry, it will settle down some. I felt the same after installing my FRPP springs. But then a couple of months later, I was walking up to my car and thought to myself, "Whoa, my car looks low now."
