  1. How about some of the front drive turbo cars that don't get rolling until the top half of the track? The same trap speed doesn't necessarily equate to an even roll race. My old car trapped 107.xx and would run on the highway with cars that trapped 111-113. Never know unless it happens.
  2. FUCK Shamrock. Bastards towed my beater when I first moved into my complex 5 years ago. I had to go to the other side of town to get the car and I forgot my damn keys. They left it outside for me to come back and get and when I got back up there the window was down and the door was open. It was pouring rain that day. Needless to say my car was soaked and some of my notes from school were ruined. Not too happy about the way they tried to screw me around either. When I called to see how much it was to get it out they said $125. I got there and the guy told me $103. I wasn't mad about that, but it almost seemed like the guy that told me $125 was going to pocket the extra $20. Thieves can rot in hell.
  3. I probably won't be going, but I'm sure some of the other guys will.
  4. Seems that Steve may have a surprise for some of us Saw you out the other day, but we were going into the parts store and you were turning to go the other way.
  5. Put new fluid in anyway. It can't hurt anything. All of the recommendations from Rob are spot on. Just remember that a T-5 is the easiest/lightest transmission to take out and put back in. Hopefully you have air tools to get the flywheel bolts off, or you'll have someone on the crank bolt holding the thing in one spot. Also, blow proof bellhousing will save your legs/feet.
  6. That was me helping out with the regulator. Kind of nice to work on something with room under the hood again. Sounds like you guys figured it out and it is running well. Enjoy.
  7. Gates of hell sauce on the wings. That is all.
  8. I was thinking more along the lines of a beady eyed used car salesman.

    dyno

    Dyno Tune Motorsports uses SCT. Check your PM's.
  10. His friend has the super new, no-one else has, one off, 33-spline shafts. Guy at ford must have had his head shoved up his ass too. This is why I hate going to parts stores that have people that know nothing. Some of the guys know enough, but most just fill space behind the counter.
  11. Sounds like you got the wrong year hub. They had 28 spline in 99. Then changed over to the 31 spline in 01 and the 03/04 had 31 spline as well. Anyone one that makes the upgraded halfshafts make theirs 31 spline as well. There might be 33, but I haven't seen it.
  12. This was funny and the truth. Carry on.
  13. So that is why we haven't seen it out yet. Who built it? Don't tell me Performance Automatic.
  14. I didn't know you worked for ADC. Must be in the admin building.
  15. Weird how when it's not blowing air out the head gasket that it pulls past 5200 This is an example of how to help out a customer. Nice work.
  16. Not that anyone cares, but my P-Chem Professor was doing work on Graphene sheets while I was in school. He seemed to be very excited about it as well. I've read a few things here and there in C&EN, thats Chemical and Engineering News magazine for those of you who aren't nerds. I'm interested to see how this turns out.
  17. It always seems that when you fix one weak link, the next one down the line goes. Such is life with going fast. Still sucks. Definitely a love/hate relationship.
  18. This car is very clean. It's hard for me to not think about another black mustang. Looks so good when it's clean. Good luck with the sale.
  19. What a crock of shit. It was overpriced, but I still liked to hang out, drink beer, and smoke cigars there. Bullshit.
  20. Must have been the different fuel pressure regulator Might have to stop back out to see how things are going.

    Try 12K less than off the lot.
  23. Mustangs didn't get a hydraulic clutch until 2005, so that isn't an issue.
  24. Best part was that it still had tailpipes and didn't sound like a truck.
  25. When are you going to find out the cost?
