    Finally beat the BMW M3 last night

    I am not sure if the 99 m3 has the same enging as the 03, but a guy at are track runs a 03 and that thing is awsome. It is bone stock with a 6 speed. He turns 8.6 with 1.9 60ft times in the 1/8 mile.

    First time runnin 1/4 mile..

    as soon as mine hits a little past the 6000 mark my rev limiter kicks in. I know that the factory tacs are off a little but 1000 rpms off. I highly doubt that.

    it pops out of 2nd gear

    your syncros are going! going! gone! It is not that bad if you are mechanically inclined. If you can pull the tranny then you can take it to a shop and most of the time they will repair it for $250-350. If you can't pull the tranny then most shops will charge $300-500 to pull it for you.

    Which svt to get?

    just had the same problem as you. I am 24 and what made my decision was insurrance. I am paying 1200 a year for the lightning. I would have been paying 2500 a year for the cobra. The lighting also has alot more leg room and it is nice to be able to throw stuff in the back. I don't really...

    Best wax, what do you guys use?

    I have a black lighting and a black gt and Meguiars Gold Class works great on both. My gt in in need of a paint job, but after I put the Meguiars on it looks brand new. It provides a very deep mirror finish.

    31 spline axles and diff

    I have the eaton with moser 31 splines and 3.73 gears. I have had that set up for about 50,000 miles and haven't had any noise out of the rear end and it still lays down 2 nice strips of rubber. My car has probably been through the burnout box over 1000 times since I had the rear.

    How many miles for break in

    I just bought a new lighning. How many miles do I need to go before I can hammer it? Do I need to change the oil at 500 or 1000 miles? I had a saleswoman and she told me that all that would be in the book, but the service book just says to change the oil every 5000 miles. If it wasn't...

    Did you ever consider a used Vette?

    If you take a 93 corvette and a 93 cobra and compare selling prices then you will see that a 93 cobra in good condition is very hard to find for und $14000. You can buy a 93 corvette for $10-12000 all day long.

    New 04 Lightning popping noise in the front end making tight turns?

    I had a 02 f150 xlt that did the same thing. I just traded it in on a 04 lightning and the lightning still does the same thing.

    Launching with 373/410's on street tires..

    Well most people do gears first so I would be the exception to the norm. Once you reach a certain power level then all gears do is produce more wheel spin. My 60ft time with 3.08 were concistent 2.05. I have a hard time doing better than a 2.2 with the 3.73. I know if I put slicks on the car...

    Do you NY/FL guys know this car?

    I like it alot. I have always wanted a triple black convertible. I would ditch the wheels anyway for something a little less overplayed.

    Launching with 373/410's on street tires..

    I beg to differ. When I had 3.08 gears I was running 8.8 in the 1/8 mile. The best I could do with the 3.73 was a 9.0

    94/95 STANG Ford Recall

    I had the recall done and mine boiled over on the way home. I called the dealer and they said it was something else wrong with my car and couldn't be the recall part. For some reason the fan comes on at first when you crank up the car and it warms up the first time, but once the fan shuts off...

    First Mods To Do?

    If you are going to do gears then you mine as well do axles and a good tractoin locker. It is pointless to pay someone $300 to install gears then have to go back and pay the same $300 to do the traction locker when most shops will charge $300 to install everything at once. Any mustang you buy...

    performer rpm 2 intake ?

    I looked at the graph on the AFM website and both the intakes are pretty closely matched in the lower rpm rang. My motor has almost 170k miles on it and it can't be too much farther down the road before I need a new bottom end. My thinking was buy a intake that will keep up with whatever I do...
