500rwhp daily driver - go!

[95sn95]

Ok so here's the scenario. You have $15,000 and you want to build a great looking daily driveable Mustang with around 500rwhp. What do you do?

Here's what I would do (intend to do):

Buy a cheap 94-95 GT, paint it red, get Cobra RR hood, cobra front, SVO side skirts, Saleen wing, black Saleen wheels, build up the motor to a high comp 347, get a 150 shot, and use the rest of the dinero for supporting mods (gears, suspension, exhaust etc.). :rockon:

That's just what I would do.....what about you?

I would do the exact same thing except w/ a 91-93 Lx notchback

I would...oh yeah I did it
Thanks to my latest tune it drives like it's stock, but put the pedal to the medal and

Spend $6K or so on a notchback, buy an R 302 block with forged internals, AFR 185's, good blower cam, good intake, supporting crap, minor suspension work, and a turbo kit. That way I always have 500rwhp.

Nice. Tough to find a good one though

Hell you still have 9k left at that point... Why stop at 500?

Because good hookers are expensive.

Where the hell can you find a 500rwhp Terminator on sale for $15,000?

$6K on the car alone. Probably cost $4,500 to get the motor together. Could put a turbo kit together for $3,000. Some money on exhaust and suspension. Would probably need a different tranny too. Like a TKO or something. It be cutting it close but spending $6,000 on the coupe alone...it would be one clean ass 500rwhp sleeper.

FliteQH your pictures at the bottom of your posts are freakin' great!! I laugh my ass off at every one you put up.

96'-97' Cobra with a blower. I love the 87'-93' car look but for a daily driver would want the better driving 94' chassis.

You can't but you could take the 15k and put down 10k on the Terminator finance the rest take the left over 5k and spend it on a chip, pulley and some other things that would get you 500hp. Sounds like a plan to me. :coolman:

Thinking the same way, except I would keep it stock-looking and use an auto.

Even that might be wishful thinking... A decent 01 Cobra with 30k miles on it still goes not too far south of 20k.
