    Bye Bye Read End

    Here is a built rear for 600. To ship these things you are looking at around 100 dollars. You couldn't have one built for less. That is a pretty good deal. Hope it helps. Also if you wanted stock gears I have a set I would sell for like 20 dollars...

    Bye Bye Read End

    You could very well have locked it up causing you to lose control and kill yourself or other people. You should be able to look around and find a whole rear end if you wanted for around 500 dollars or maybe even less. For the 31 spline setup you are looking at around 500 dollars for parts...

    loud noise, 2nd and 4th mostly

    Well we could try to diagnose it but if we don't have a more specific sound we will be just guessing. Could you get an audio clip? Or jack up the car and row through the gears with a buddy outside with the hood popped? If it does turn out to be syncros the trannys are dirt cheap for those...

    invisible bra?

    Matt, those stripes can be had for 29.99. Just yank it and redo it.

    NYS Inspection ????

    The only sure fire way to fail a inspection is to have a CEL. As long as the computer passes the rest is "passable" for the right amount.

    New Edge Exhausts

    Magnaflow makes a great exhaust that is SS. Check out Mustangexhaust.com for all the sounds clips and pick the one you like best. A standard set of speakers does make it harder to judge the sounds, but if you have a decent little set with a sub you should get a good idea of what you like...

    V6? what can i do engine wise to my v6 so it can be fast???

    Didn't mean for it to come across as it being a block with two cylinder ACTUALLY loped off, if thats how you took it. It is just the same type of 90 degree block and the mods that work to make 5.0 Fox bodies faster tend to also work on the 3.8 cars.:rock:

    V6? what can i do engine wise to my v6 so it can be fast???

    After some research there is no cheap way to get that supercharger to run on your car. You would end up spending WAYYYYY more than you would for a decent aftermarket setup. Your engine as of now is basically a 5.0 engine with two cylinders loped off. The same simple mods that you can do to...

    Nitrous on a 2V

    The largest shot run by the general Modular crowd is 150. That is about the max you would want to do unless you plan on melting your pistons. I would look into a Nitrous Express WET system or the base kit from Nitrous Outlet.com. You do NOT go cheap when dealing with this. Also make sure...

    The electric stang is here

    They have batteries that can recharge in 15 minutes now. It would take an average person about 7 minutes to fill an average sized gas tank so you are only spending 8 more minutes and far less money.......If its fast, I'll drive it.

    REPORT: Saleen Inc. dissolves warranties, new owner takes over

    The new owners bought the parts and assets. If they continue to make them under the Saleen name then you would have grounds for a law suit. If not, Saleen Inc. has ceased to exist so good luck suing something that has vanished.

    100ft drags in middletown

    Legally if your car came equipped with them(cats) you have to retain them. Although passing inspection is extremely easy if you know the right people. If a cop wanted to be a d**che they could actually site you for it and that carries a 10k fine.....each cat.

    V6? what can i do engine wise to my v6 so it can be fast???

    Swap in a 4.2 from a ranger. This is a very easy install and you will gain quite a bit of power in the process. A set of gears will make you quicker on the accel too. You could also look into the M90 superchargers that were on the Thunderbird SCs back in the day, although on the newer split...

    Still throwing a code. Grrrrr P0507 WTF?

    If the above doesn't work I have an extra one here in my basement. Just let me know where you are. We could test it out. It could also be from moisture in the PCV.

    Tires

    Ah that is right....I must have made that up. :thumbsdown: Also that little blurb you copied out of that website would suggest that the ride would be harsh on a stock suspension with even a aftermarket spring, yet thousands of Mustang owners run Eibach Pro kits and similar setups on the...

    Mid-pipes and Headers.

    With a tall gear you will gain MPG in a city environment as you will be at a higher gear with your transmission. Also my gas mileage has not suffered drastically with the 4.30s on the highway. At 70mph with a T45 I am around 2600-2700rpms. I have drove mine with these gears as a daily driver...

    Mid-pipes and Headers.

    I swore you said manual before, oh well. I would then change the list to remove the driveshaft and the shifter and get a torque converter. That should be even above gears on the need to do list. I would look for something around 3200rpms.

    Mid-pipes and Headers.

    Oh and I have 4.30s and can take it up to 20 in first before I have to shift. It seriously isn't that bad. People who fear the gear usually have no experience with them. These cars do not make good torque down low so why bother with a gear that keeps you there? We start making power at...

    Mid-pipes and Headers.

    Well if you just want a quick fun car here you go: Lower control arms-UPR makes decent pieces for cheap(you can remove the quad shock too) Aluminum driveshaft-reduced rotational mass, very easy to install. Gears-4.30s if you are staying N/A or 3.73 if you will supercharge or...

    Mid-pipes and Headers.

    SOTP is stomp on the pedal. It means something that you will actually feel by the seat of your pants. As for gearing you should lay out the plans for what you want to accomplish with the car first. Rather than just keeping mentioning ideas of different parts, you should tell us what you want...
