I finally got an 01 GT. Im very excited. spent alot of money but im sure its going to be worth it.

Bought it preowned ON A SUSPENDED LICENSE. Gotta serve 15 days then im clear.

After my suspension is up what are some of the things i should think about doing with the stang?
 
"Watch your cornhole Peter." From Officespace.

But seriously, what do you plan on doing with the car, spirited dailly driving, auto x, drag racing, bragging at parking lot get togethers? How much money do you have to spend? What mods are done to the car so far? Do you want to go forced induction or stay NA?

If I had to do it all over again I would go supercharger, KB to be exact, then shifter, exhaust, full length subframe connectors and on and on from there. If your car is non-pi, I would suggest doing that swap first and dropping in some cams while your in there.

If your like me, and most people on here, then you have no idea about how much money and time you are about to spend on your car. Good thing is, it's all worth it. :)
 
LOL yea i guess it is worthless without pics. im at work and i dont have a good pic of it yet. ill get one on asap.


i was think of doing a mild tune. I def. want to get some sort of obdii setup so i can see what going on with the car. Can you get mpg readings from the ecu port?
 
I would not get a Dyno tune on a stock car. Your gains will be so insignficant it wont be worth it. Just a waste of $500. Start slow and kind of build up. Catback Exhaust, Mid-Pipe, Intake, Throttle body plenum, Coil on plug, blower and then get a Dyno Tune.

Have fun :nice:

thats what it is.
 
Yea it needs some cosmetic work but itll do for now. it has a cai already im still trying to get use to the new power. I own a 95 v6 and the difference in shifting is crazy. im goanna be looking into rims and tiniting when i get the money. my insurance for this baby is too much :)



What size rims would be good. I know i love the 94 95 cobra r rims.
 
I've never been to a jail or anything like that - please give a write up afterwards. I'm interested in what's on the menu. I actually LIKE the flat black spoiler and trunk panel. That's what I've wanted to do to my car. I think it looks awesome! But - remember - get the GO before the SHOW. Get some performance and then get the looks to back it up. Get a valentine or passport radar detector so you don't do any more time in lockup. The passport will pay for itself VERY quickly - believe me. I haven't had a ticket in 2 yrs and I rarely follow those little white signs.

LOL im not going to jail. i just read my first post and it does sound like it. i have to serve a 15 day suspension. i dont think they can jail you on an unpaid ticket. but who knows nowadays. :lol:


anyway i guess your right about the GO b4 Show. I still need to go through to car and see what it already has.
 
In Texas they send people to jail for unpaid tickets. BTW I wasnt ragging on the car with the flat black comment. It actually looks alright. It would look killer with smoked windows and dark wheels :nice:

Anywho congrats :cheers:
