    Shock/Strut install help!!!!

    +1 I couldn't get the nut off the strut either when I was swapping mine way back when. So I went and bought a cordless impact from Harbor Freight. Worked like a charm. I've used it a million times now, on all my suspension work, brakes, wheels, etc... This is the one I purchased - LINK

    Hid ballast mounting

    I have mine hidden under the Rad Cover, using an existing stud thats already there. All you have to do is pickup the proper size nut to fit the threads on each side and you're good to go... . . . . . With the cover in place - all you can see is a portion of black...

    I Want Some New Looks

    As a few others have mentioned, the wheels you have now flow with your car nicely. I was thinking the same thing, Cobra front bumper and a new hood. I'd also throw some dumps on there, the tailpipes look out of place.

    Am I crazy or what???

    Guess I'm the only one who likes it! I'm usually not a fan of four eyes either unless the car is done right - with that said, that car looks badass! If it drives as good as it looks, I'd be all over that swap. I'd just make sure to test drive it first and not get something that will give...

    Highest maintenance Ford color?

    Werd, my car always looks clean - it takes work for it to look dirty, and even then it still looks clean from a few feet away, haha.

    MAC Pro-Chamber and driveability

    I've got an O/R Prochamber with a MAC Catback and have had no problems in Chicago city traffic coasting to a stop in first. Didn't have any problems with my last 3-4 exhaust setups either - including LT's, O/R H, etc.... No lunge problems.

    Need answer ASAP please

    Where are you guys getting your facts from? So confident, yet so wrong... Yes, 99-04 GT/Mach/Cobras all use interchangeable midpipes. I have sold midpipes off my 02' GT to friends in the past with Machs and Cobras. *Take a look at MAC's website, scroll and see what it categorizes our year...

    Eaton M90 on a 4.6?

    If you are looking for a straight bolt-on kit utilizing an M90 than I would look out for used Series I and II Saleen kits (Series II preferably). These kits use M90's made for 4.6 2v GT's. Otherwise you would end up needing to undergo some fabrication with a different style M90 other than the...

    Ordering springs and shocks

    Those are for the rear. Are you only replacing the rear shocks? You need struts for the front as well if you're doing front and back, V36-4138-H3 (Front HD Struts).

    03 Acura RSX Front Seats in a 96 Mustang?

    I had RSX seats in my 02' GT for about a week, haha. I actually picked mine up locally from someone who had them in their Mustang. He ordered some brackets so that they would bolt up to his car. I don't remember where he got them, but it was online - and not hard to get. The only problem...

    Hey, Blinkstang!

    As Nick (four six) said, they are silver. I LOVE the hypercoated Saleens, and contemplated switching over to them. But my silver Saleen's match my cars color perfectly, so I decided to keep them. Thanks for the compliment!

    I wasnt born yesterday

    Its actually TRUE. Thats a local car. Hes currently not tuned for the spray, and has not used it. He recently went to the track and ran a 10.68 - all blower. Heres one of the posts from the Track thread - "Congrats on the run! Was that on blower only, or were you spraying as well?" And...

    Quality Suspension set up for $500?

    He doesn't necessarily need to lower the car right off the bat. Thus he can use that $500 to start off with some nice shocks and struts to fix his current ride problem, and then lower it with some springs and CC plates in the future. Won't handle like a Beamer with just this upgrade, but...

    Saleen Series II Blower questions

    I think you have your blowers confused. This is a Series II Saleen blower, not the Series IV. Stock they put down around 290 to the wheels. Heres a LINK to a guy who posted an install guide for the Series II on his GT. The kit was bone stock straight from Saleen - he put down 286hp to the...
