    2005 interior...WTF?

    OK, guys... I get my hands on the wheel at 10 and 2 for the spirited driving and backroad burnin'. I'm talkin' long-haul Interstate driving and Atlanta rush hour "follow the guy in front like a herd of cattle" driving! For that, you've gotta be able to get those elbows down. Give me a...

    2005 interior...WTF?

    Oh Lord! "Fastbackness"?!? We've coined a new word!?! Seriously, what I don't like about the steering wheel is that it doesn't have a comfortable notch to tuck your driving fingers into. You know, the spot where the steering wheel meets the spoke portion that connects to it on both sides...

    Pics of bullit wheels on 94-95?

    cmclean, Here you go... my white 95 with gray bullitts: IMO the gray bullitts look best on a light-colored car.

    Wheels

    Well... I think ALL the wheels offered for the 2005 GT suck! I am not impressed with either wheel design at all. Neither does anything to complement the car! What the heck, Ford can't come up with any better wheel styles than that for a completely redesigned car, and a retro design to...

    Basic Question About Timing

    You answered your own question! There is a delay involved! The delay is the amount of time that it takes for the air/fuel mixture to ignite, burn, start to expand, and therefore cause a resultant increase in pressure in the cylinder. That's what pushes the piston back down in the power...

    Vaccume Line and EGR Question

    SorsCode is right. The EVR solenoid has to control EGR valve vacuum. The EGR valve needs to see zero vacuum at idle, zero vacuum at WOT, and controlled partial vacuum in between. The only way to get that is to have the EVR (EGR Valve Regulator) inside the passenger side fenderwell...

    Cant Pass Emissions

    Mikes95GT, The single most common cause for failing emissions inspections (on mostly-stock cars), is O2 sensor failure or malfunction. Read your codes and see if you have any relating to O2 sensors and/or rich A/F mixtures. If you still have your original O2 sensors, they may be due for...

    Brake Upgrade Question

    dsg02, You'll also save yourself the expense of a new spare wheel/tire. The stock GT spare will NOT fit over the Cobra brakes either! Lots of people forget that when they do a Cobra brake upgrade on a GT. The 1999+ dual-piston aluminum PBR brakes will give you much better braking than...

    Reply Here if your LOW Coolant Light has come on!

    Happens to me every other month or so. Winter, Summer, doesn't matter. The coolant level actually drops low enough in the reservoir to make the light come on, so it should be coming on. The mystery is that I can't find a coolant leak. Nothing ever shows on the floor in the garage. I can't...

    Lets See Em. White Mustangs!

    Here you go... It's just a GT among all these Cobras, but it's a beauty to me! (Only 83K and in great shape. Just need some mods!)

    4 Cyl Engine + Auto: How good?

    All, Thanks very much for all of your comments and experience. It helps a lot to hear from those who have "been there and done that". I hoped that people on this board would educate me in a hurry, and you did! Thanks again.

    4 Cyl Engine + Auto: How good?

    The mileage is just over 100K. Asking price is $2,500. Has power, air bags, a/c, new tires. Paint and interior both good. Ad says "runs fine, no problems". Haven't looked at car yet.

    4 Cyl Engine + Auto: How good?

    Sorry about the newbie 4 Cyl question... I'm a 5.0 guy. Looking at a '93 Mustang with 4 Cylinder engine and Auto transmission for a new teenage driver. How stout is this engine/drivetrain combo? Will it last a long time if cared for, or are there things I should know about, or check...

    Getting the right Intake parts for a stock 94/95 GT

    All, I noticed a number of posts lately where people have a hard time getting the correct intake system parts for a stock '94/'95 GT 5.0. As most of us know, our intakes were "borrowed" from the '93 Thunderbird 5.0 engines. The '93 and earlier Mustang GT 5.0 intakes were too tall to fit...

    Want to see the video of my 12.31 at 111.15mph pass?

    jjd975, Thanks for the timeslip math lesson! (Drag strip newbie here! Never made a run in my life.) My car is stock, so I'd have to spend a bunch of money first, or I'd just embarrass myself.

    Want to see the video of my 12.31 at 111.15mph pass?

    Paul, I just watched the vid. Nice run! One question though: Did your dad leave early (before the green), or did he just get that good of a jump on you? If he didn't leave early, and you would have launched at the same time he did, I think you might have been under 12 seconds based on...

    New to SN-95 world...Help me

    OK, Now the '95 Cobra R mystery deepens!!! The '95 Cobra R for sale on e-Bay (see link in 67stang390's post above) IS the SAME CAR! The VINs are identical: 1FALP42C1SF213570 So... what's up? Who really owns/is selling the car that 302efi has a picture of the door sticker from?

    New to SN-95 world...Help me

    302efi, Well, looks like it might be true! Great find if it is! You lucky dog! One thing though; not a good daily driver for Florida since a '95 Cobra-R has no A/C !!!

    New to SN-95 world...Help me

    Well... The 5th through 7th digits indicate body type: P40 = 2-door Base Mustang Coupe P42 = 2-door GT Coupe P47 = 2-door Cobra Coupe So, according to this VIN, the car is a GT not a Cobra. But... not so fast, This VIN is still a mystery to me, particularly the 8th digit, which...
