    WTB: stock 03/04 cobra in SF Bay Area

    My unit should be docking back home early next month and I wouldn't mind picking up a terminator. I'm not picky as far as color or hardtop/convertible, but I would strongly prefer a stock cobra. Sorry for not searching too indepth, I'm on my phone and the connection is insanely slow.

    10 different kinds of sick

    Personally, I own a 2000 GT with nothing more than lowering springs and good tires (GSD3s) as far as the handling mods. My buddy asked me what suspension he should buy for his 03 cobra. No hesitation, no debating, I immediately suggested MM. Next thing I know I have 3 huge packages in...

    Which would you rather have?

    Hypothetically speaking, if you have a choice of having either of the two and still keeping a rather flat power band (traction and part breakage are not issues)... which would you choose for better acceleration off the line? Don't say why... most people will guess from your choice... but do let...

    Which Rice?

    I wanted to get away from the black on chrome theme for a while now (has gotten way too popular), and seeing as my stupidity caused me to find a curb at a drive through, I figured it would be a good excuse to get the lip powder coated. Red: Blue: Black: Chrome (the way it is right now):

    Minor detail fest :)

    The two main detailed cars are a 94 Taurus SHO and a 2000 Mustang GT. They are both buffed with a porter cable and LC pads. We used Poorboys SSR1 with a white pad followed with Klearcote Machine glaze on blue and topped with Klearcote Vanilla Moose Wax on black.

    28" tires on a lowered mustang?

    Anyone have any success at squeezing a 28" tire under a solid axle new-edge with lowering springs? I got my hands on a set of 28" tall slicks for this weekend but I don't know if they'll fit under my 2000 GT with H&R Sport Springs. Also, how far would they stretch at higher MPH?

    275x50-15 dragradial

    What are the prices for either a BFGoodrich Drag radial (the solid stripe one) or a Mickey Thompson drag radial. Also, what tire size would you reccomend for a 15x3.5 rim that will see cruises to and from the track (so something that will still be safe on the street).

    American Racing Wheels

    What's the story behind them? Are they a good reliable wheel for the track or should I spend 3x the money on a Weld? I was looking for some big and littles that I can get for my mustang and noticed that AR wheels are considerably cheaper than any other wheel I have come up against, and...

    4.6 poll, opinions welcome

    According to my buddy, the 4.6 in the mustang is a tiny motor. I'm talkin about the overall size. Yea, there are lots of other bigger V8's out there, but I'm talkin about engine size in general. Yay or nay?

    WTB: 98 cobra wheels

    I need to buy a set of rims that will clear the Cobra R brake kit, and will mount a 245/45/17 tire without a problem. It doesn't matter if they have curb damage as long as they are straight, will hold air, and won't fall apart.

    17" vs 18" fr500s

    Which would you guys choose for a black 00 mustang gt? I have my heart set on black on chrome FR500 rims (deep dish in the back, ofcourse). I just can't decide which would look better, 17" with 315's or 18" with 285's in the back. Any opinions? These are the rims btw:

    99/00 GT trunk/spoiler (complete)

    I acquired a 01-04 bodystyle spoiler. The color is black and has no chips and no scratches on the trunk lid, but it does have a few small scratches on the spoiler that you have to look REALLY closely to see. I'm located in 60187 if anyone is interested for pickup. Any bids?

    Sexiest mustang color?

    I got an offer for a $500 paint job through a friend. He said any color I want, except red which would cost a bit more. My 00 mustang gt is black with a crapload of road rash highlighted by wax :whine: The only look mods I have are the grill delete, chin spoiler, SS H&R springs, and...

    installing lowering springs

    I've taken a few automotive classes here in a local college, but haven't gotten to the suspension class yet. If I order lowering springs, how difficult would it be to install? I have lots of tools, but none of them are really automotive based besides the torque wrenches. If I can't install...
