New Toys?

smokin00GT · Jul 10, 2007

Anyone get any new toys lately? I keep seeing the same old 3 boring posts moving to the top, so I thought I would start a new one.

I haven't gotten any new toys recently, but as you know my husband has. I am wanting some suade cobra seats for my mustang pretty bad. I hate this hot weather and my seats now...my legs sweat and stick to them and it hurts when I have to get out. You guys probably don't wear as short of shorts as I do, but it is a genuine problem.

Hey I have one of those....3 door SVT. I love the gas milage but hate the 6 spd in it. I don't like to shift sixty times when I go to the grocery store.

I have a MM torque arm & rear coilovers waiting to go in.

Why does everyone have parts waiting to go in? When I get parts my hubby and I are in the garage that same day putting our goodies on. We just are not patient people.

+1, my parts dont hibernate

The only reason i've had gears sitting around is because I can't install them myself, and right after I bought them I got really busy with school (finals and what not), and since then I haven't been "home" for 2 months

Because a torque arm isnt easy to put in like a catback or cold air kit. Its gonna require welding, midpipe modification, & a lift. & Im not gonna do the coilovers until the TA is on the car.

Nothing new recently .. but I am wanting a ratcheting breaker bar if they even make such a thing! I've been battling some PITA bolts on my truck and thought it would be so nice to have a breaker bar that had some ratchet action. Not a torque wrench though.

Thats mad random but maybe someone will know if such a thing exists...

I know... My buddy whos supposed to help is lagging. Im considering paying a shop to install it now, because I need to get it done soon...Its costly though. Beleive me, if I could do it, it would already be under my car

Ya, I would imagine that the TA would take twice as long as the PHB, with all the extra measurements for the pinion angle and stuff. That, and modifying the intermediate pipe could be expensive.

a shop quoted me only $250, but thats not including exhaust mods, which they dont do....Plus I still need to install the coilovers too, which is gonna require some new custom tailpipes to clear my catback....

My MM C/O (when I had them) cleared my Bassani w/o any problems.

Do you need them to clear the PHB?

No but since my Magnaflow catback had to be modified to fit the PHB, now it looks like the right tailpipe might interfere with the coilover shock mount.
