    Swapping gears...need opinions

    Long story short, I'm looking to ditch my 4.10's and go back to stock 3.55's. IMO, 4.10's in these cars on anything short of a built rear and slicks is just a waste; first and second gear become useless at anything more than half throttle. Not to mention, 2500 @ 70mph reminds me of driving my...

    Teminator vs '12 Challenger Mopar 10

    Had a frustrating run with a Challenger "R/T." I was pulling out of a parking lot when I first spotted the car. I actually think I heard it long before I saw it. Louder than balls, lowered on big yet kinda skinny wheels, black everything with a sizeable hood scoop... When I saw the front, I...

    4.10's in a Terminator

    What do ya think? Do they actually help? If it were N/A or turbo I could see the benefit, but not S/C. Thinking about swapping them out for stock 3.55's so I can attempt to use 1st gear once in a while without going up in smoke. Plus, 2400rpm at 70mph gets a little annoying. Reminds me of...

    Couple ZR1 pics...

    What up? Made my way up to Road America yesterday for the Generac 500. Chevy had a tent set up with this little gem hiding beneath it: [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] I even scored a free t-shirt! lol

    1996 Laser Red GT Coupe

    1996 Mustang GT Laser Red Coupe I am the third owner. Original owner put 13k on the car before selling it to a mid-20’s lady in Northern Illinois. I bought the car October 2003 with 64k miles completely stock. It now has 98,114 and is stored. Car is not my DD. I don’t need to sell, but I’d...

    1965 Shelby Daytona

    Hey guys. I was at a car show this passed weekend in Port Washington, WI and saw this bad dog there. This is seriously one of the coolest cars I've ever seen, even though it's a replica. Snapped these pics before the owner put the chains around it. :D Enjoy!

    S'Charged Silverado SS and BPU GTP

    #1 Ran into a black Silverado SS the other night. I was behind it and she was quite loud so I moved in to investigate. Shortly thereafter, I made my move to the far right lane due to my need to make an upcoming turn. As I passed, I made a little noise to see what was cookin'.:D Sure...

    My '96 GT vs. modded '95 GT

    What's going on, dudes? Met a guy last week with a '95 GT. He's cammed (nothing too radical, not sure on the specs), full exhaust, some sort of ignition work (MSD box/distributor?), 3.55's, King Cobra clutch, and short shifter. He's running 275 Yoko's on an '03 Cobra rim. I'd seen his car...

    2 and 1 start to the season...ha ha

    Finally got some decent weather up here in "da nort", so I brought my s h i t wagon out for some fun. Went up to the local cruising area just to see what was shakin' and ended up re-enacting that classic video of the CRX hatch versus Cavalier and both of them getting passed by that 'vert Cobra...

    What would I need?

    I've been seeing it more and more - 96-98 cars with 03/04 Cobra motors and trannies. I honestly love the idea and am curious as to the list of parts it would take to do the swap. I know there are a few guys who have done it on this forum, so any pro's/con's from experience would be great as...

    Quick idle vid...

    Started the car up today since it's been so freakin' cold out lately. In addition, I recently figured out how to post vids and pics so I'm taking every chance I get to whore it up a bit. :D It's a little dark, but the sound is what we're here for...

    Various pics and a vid or two...

    I've been wanting to toss some shots up on here for quite a while, but I have never really gotten around to it. Also, I'm not the most computer savvy person you'll ever meet, so figuring out how to post pics made me proud.:D I know she's no 600rwhp Termintor, turbo LSx, or even a blown PI...

    Help with beater car...

    -Car is a '93 Probe GT (2.5 V6) Problem in itself, I know, but anyway... Last seen alive - Had it out last Friday during a big snowstorm here (WI). Ran fine to and from school (about 40 miles). Got stuck a few times on the way home and got somewhat aggressive with the throttle to get it...

    GTP guys:I need your help

    Howdy. Doing some research into modifying an '02? GTP. It belongs to a friend of mine and I thought you guys would be able to help. Looking for the basic upgrades and this is what I've come up with: 3.4" pulley 180* T-stat Autolite 104's gapped to .055 ZZPerformance PCM/ECU Wizaired...

    Belt replacement help

    I'm thinking it's time to replace the ol' belt in the beast. She likes to let out a little squeak when I shift hard in WOT. Either that, or it's the clutch, which I doubt cause it's only got 20k on it and it's built to handle a hell of a lot more than I am throwing at it. So, Goodyear...

    New best!

    Finally got a day off from work to hit the track. Ran my new best, which is nothing special to you Cobra, Lightning, LS1...folks, but a 14.5 was my goal and I hit it. First run after the twenty minute drive and the fifteen minute wait in the inspection line: 60' 2.110 330 6.067 1/8...

    Race gas?

    Hittin' the 1320 on Tuesday and discovered a gas station around here that sells some race gas. I was thinking about going down there with a half tank of the usual 93 octane and tossing in a gallon or two of the good stuff. Tune is built for 93. Am I gonna be okay? Thanx

    Maybe a kill? (Sorry...long)

    What's up guys? First off, let me say that I almost never get into any sort of match up worth mentioning; either I get dusted or I smoke some kid in his Mom's Alero, but anyway... Went out last night to check out a 5.0 for my friend who has wanted to get into a Stang ever since I got mine...

    Kicked in the beans...(sorry kinda long)

    So, I'm out tonight with two of my buddies. One has an '01? GTP (pretty much stock) and the other has an Integra (don't know model or mods, but it goes pretty nicely). The GTP and I have raced once before and I came out on top by about a car and a half. Mind you, this was before the TB...

    Balljoint install...

    After a year of the notorious squeaking balljoint problem, I'm finally gonna get around to popping in the Steeda X2's that have been sitting in my garage since last Spring. Just wanted to know if there are any tricks or helpful hints before I dive into her. I put C-Springs in last year, so I...

    SCT install results...

    Just got my SCT XCalibrator today. Ordered it from mustangtuning.com over the phone and gave them all the details. I've now added a 75mm tb and plenum, JLT CAI, and the tune to the car all in the last week, so there have been some noticeable changes in its behavior. After driving around for a...

    Non-PI needs your help! (lengthy)

    After a pair of disappointing trips to the track, I'm seriously considering my performance options. I've finally come to realize that my little pre-PI GT just ain't all that fast now that I know what she really runs; I had myself convinced that it was a decently quick car, but now the numbers...
