Decided to sell my Mach. It’s the nicest of all the Mustangs I’ve had over the years, I just don’t enjoy driving it anymore and want to go another direction.
This car has a cool history. It was the development mule for Ridetech for their coilover setup for the SN chassis. I’ve spoken to the...
Gears make a TON of difference in these cars. I had 3.73s in my first yellow car paired with an E-cam and full bolt ons and it was pretty stout. The '97 Cobra had 4.10s, that's the minimum I'd ever run with a mod motor car.
So awesome. I got tired of the round body style and always wanted a Mach, so that's what I scooped this time around. But I had 2 super clean CY GTs, a '94 and a '95 and then a clean '97 CW Cobra. Would love to pick up another round body Cobra some day. It's so rare to see one now
I've got limited seat time outside of Mustangs, but I'll chime in.
Most pure fun: Either an early 911 or a Miata. So enjoyable because you have to work for it and they're fun at non-illegal speeds, they're momentum cars.
Outright speed/power: Buddy's dad's ported/pullied 03 Cobra
Cruisers...
Yeah, the round body SNs have a soft following compared to the Foxes, New Edges and Coyote cars. Give it time, it'll come back around eventually. The Fox's have always been popular for cheap fun but nice, original cars are building value for collectors now. The round body SNs will follow in a...
I know what you're going through, I hope you can find some peace with it but drinking is certainly not the answer. I had my first anxiety attacks when I was about 28, I'm 30 now. I used to think anxiety was nonsense as well but it is certainly real. I started dating this girl that I'd known...
Been busy with work and haven't been on here much lately. But I finally got around to putting on a new front lip and got the car tuned by Injected Engineering here in Kennesaw, Ga. I haven't really driven the car hard because I didn't trust the BAMA tune and I'm glad I didn't. He said the car...
Was just ready back through this and caught your numbers again. That's strong, do you have underdrive pulleys? I'm hoping to get my car tuned soon so hoping for similar numbers.
I liked the black wheels on the red, but wanted something to break it up. I don't like how black wheels look against tires cuz the tire is always drier looking. Plus you loose the detail of the wheel most times.
I like the FRs on your car too, love the anthracite. I had those on my yellow '94...
They do don't they! I debated hard on what wheels I wanted. Really wanted something that wasn't a "Mustang" wheel, but they're all 10.5" wide in the back and once you go over a 295 for the rear tire in an 18" diameter, the costs get insane. Plus they're all pretty much drag radials and I didn't...
Sorry man, already sold them to a buddy of mine for his white Mach. I was gonna list them on the forums but he passed me the day I put my new wheels on and asked about the old ones.
Got the FRs mounted, adjusted the front down roughly 3/8" and softened the shocks all around. LOVE how she sits now and rides pretty nice. These 295s are just as wide as the old 315s too.
Same. I've always been involved in road racing and autocrossing so handling is more important than all out power for me. Supercharger wayy on down the line is the plan.
^Agreed. N/A mod motors are hard pressed to hit 400, you'd have to have a pretty radical setup and then it wouldn't be very fun except at full tilt. Plus, you'd spend more to build the motor N/A than you would to slap a blower/turbo on it. Go boost, that's my plan for my Mach. Leave the motor...
Also used Paint (I know, I know, it's terrible. It's all I have on my work computer) to add the roof wrap and remove the rocker stripes. I'm liking the look. My wheels should be here Friday, so I'm hoping to get them on and finish up underneath (need to make some brackets to support the o2...
Then I moved to the back of the car. I love bright colors and want this car to pop, so I started taking some of the add-on black off. I may add some back later on, but for now I'm liking the look. The trunk panel had been taken off and added back before, there was evidence of the original...
