    Car Stalling when Braking....ARRRGGHH!

    my car started doing that one day and did it for a few days then quit messing up. It did that over and over again every few weeks for a few months. Everybody else is probably right. Check your IAC components. It's a ford thing cause I've had other Fords with the same problem.

    losing interest in the GT: am i missing something?

    yeah I sometimes wonder if my car is what I want (98 GT) I wish I had got a cobra or a 99-04 Mach but it's a little late now. I just hate that I could've gotten supercharged for just a little more and was too stupid to do it. I would love to upgrade but unfortunately it just wouldnt make sense...

    Tokyo Drift

    I used to have drifting car....now I will say it was one fast F@#ker and was awesome to drive but you know a rice burner just can't compare to the raw power my mustang offers :) Still, I don't even want to see this movie....It's just another excuse for people to drive their crappy honda with a...

    Got my first ticket last night...

    Just argue it and say that you are getting adjust to new gears or something like that....or just say you weren't speeding. I have gotten out the past 2 tickets I've gotten just by saying that the cop was full of **** and I wasn't speeding at all. They will most likely at least lower it for you.

    Oil Question

    I ended up running my car for almost 5000 miles once without changing my oil (definately wouldn't recommend doing that either) but I wasn't even 1/4 of a quart low when I changed it. So I guess I'm not really burning much oil in mine. But my 86 GT burned about a quart every 1000 miles or so.

    what oil should I use?

    5w30 Royal Purple for sure. I used to use Mobil 1 but decided to try the Royal Purple and it runs noticeably smoother now and I did noticed an increase in about 2 mpg....not much but hey it's something. It's definately worth the $7 a quart price.

    Does anybody have full SLP exhaust?

    I currently have a MAC offroad H pipe and Flowmaster catback......personally I hate this system. It however did come with the car so I wasn't complaining at first. Still the entire system has only about 6000 miles on it and already is rusted completely so it's time for replacement. I have...

    Paint rims black??

    I've used it with okay results. I painted mine old wheels charcoal (black 98 GT) It looked awesome compared to the original aluminum color but a buddy of mine did his in black and it really didn't look all that great in my opinion. A black wheel really needs a chrome lip IMO. As long as you...

    BFG DR's will they fit?

    I meant to say I was thinking of running the KD's front the DR's rear. It also appears that they do make a 265 in 18's (I was looking at the 17's with that one) I am still concerned with the tread life with these tires since I've heard from some that these tires only last about 5 thousand miles.

    BFG DR's will they fit?

    I looking for some new tires and want to know opinions of the BFG DR's. I want to run a 315/30/R18 rear and since I want to run the same tires all around I was considering running the 275/35/R18's front. I would prefer to run a 265/35/18 front but the BFG DR's dont come in that size. I have...

    Bodykit question?

    I will get the 18's if I do decide to get the Y2K's. I dont' really care for the cobra skirts and rear.....it just doesn't appeal to me, but I love the way the cobra R front bumper and wing look. I am not completely sure. I am thinking about just getting the Stalker S2000 conversion kit and...

    Bodykit question?

    I am fairly new to this site so I hope I am posting this in the right place and this question hasnt' already been asked. I was thinking about getting the Cobra R front bumper and wing for my 98 gt. I am unsure of which side skirt and rear to get. I was thinking possibly the Kamarini rear and...
