what would you buy with $900?? need ideas

woodyy24 · May 12, 2006

ive got 900 to waste on the stang

im definatley getting some lowering springs. now what about the other 770?
maybe some tires, MT ET streets. or an alumy radiator and fans.
or some long tubes and x-pipe. or a new 650 DP. or piece together a JYTT setup and get the springs later.

i cant decide what to get

im also in need of as replacement alternator, the stock 85 just isnt doing the job, after the MSD, electric fuel pump, electric fan, lights, and stereo.

WHERES that damn (good) mod checklist....follow it and get what you dont have on it....ill see if i can find it

Darkwriter77 · May 12, 2006

I'd splurge on a 3g alt conversion and a good electric fan (Mark VIII or Taurus, preferrably). Maybe use the rest for a set of aftermarket gauges, if you don't already have 'em - that way you can monitor your temp and volts a lot more accurately.

good idea on the guages, ive been trying to keep it looking stock as possible but my temp guage sucks at giving accurate readings. maybe ill get a new cowl piece with the 3 guage pods in it.

tell me how the ac delete goes on the 85...I heard that the FRPP delete wont fit.

gotta get a newer power steering bracket

other wise you end up with this mess, and about 1/2'' of clearance at the water pump pulley where the belt might rub on itself.

i already have a good top end build and cooling system, so i would go with a new nitrous kit and 4:10's. for me that would be the most bang for the buck.

Your gonna like those springs, I have them and they provide the perfect stance

woodyy24 · May 13, 2006

The alt looks good...just wondering why the voltage regulator is tied into the main stud

Dean85GT · May 13, 2006

a not so good friend's car at 2am

Aliate X · May 14, 2006

you should save more than 900 and buy a transmission or something serious instead of nickle and dime bolt ons that you really dont need....
