What have you done to your mustang today?

[stkjock]

I loved those bullets on my GT, I was one of the first to get them, ordered in Dec 2005 got the car end of Jan 06



255/45 and 265/40s

 

[garner]

Just picked up a set of bullitts for mine. All 4 with tires for $250. But 2 tires were shit and the other 2 have like 20% tread left

 

[black06gt3v]

4 NITTO nt555's installed with steeda xbrace and steeda pro action struts and shocks and bought steeda strut tower brace but won't fit over ford racing manifold so...need motor mounts and headers

 

[SGTguy]

Love them too, that the one thing I won't change on my car, I added the tri bars

 

[GT500KR]

Pulled the motor again.... except for this motor only has less than 60 minutes of idling on it. And it fully built.... fml

What was wrong?

 

[lethe]

That sucks. 60 minutes of idling on a new engine isn't good either.

i enjoyed the bullits too. i had a set from a GTCS so they were chrome.
looked hot at shows.

 

[swedensky]

installed black Shelby spoiler, airaid CAI, jlt "rain prevention", mgw...have light tints to go on when it's warmer.
AM accidentally sent me quarter tint for a new edge so I'll give tgat away and wait for 13-14 quarter marker tint.

thinking about installing my boss diffuser this weekend...has anyone here done it? I searched briefly but I found this site has "how to"s in almost every thread category. I just don't want to cut into my bumper and mess it up beyond repair.

also swapped my upr shorty antenna for the cut stock version =D

anddddd almost to the final stage of making my custom one off grille!

The garage view doesn't do the combination justice but here it is anyway.

Those are looking mighty nice Bruce. Hope they were clean enough for you when you got them ;-)

What was wrong?

Guide arm broke and chain was loose. Looks like the tensioner collapsed.
and the car ran for a 10 min ... 20 min... and then the next day 30 min...



Oil pan

Did you replace the tensioner when you built the motor?

Everything is brand new. Block and heads are original. Upgrade to cast iron tensioners versus the stock plastic ones

So, I've been sweating out these dry rotted front tires since I bought the car,
just waiting for one of them to pop.

Then came...



315/35-17 Nittos on the rear.



275/40-17 Nittos on the front.



With American Muscle FR500 style wheels 17x9/10.5"





Before



After



So now I won't be constantly expecting a blowout while driving the monster.

For some reason the wheels aren't blowing my mind as much as I had built them up in my head. I like them but don't love them yet. I can't explain it.

Cold idle video for the heck of it. Sounds GREAT in person but horrible on camera.

Got new front tires. For a car that won't leave the garage for another couple months lol. 245/45/18 RE-11's. Should have went with 255's.

DAMN, look at that tread depth! you could lose a small dog in there. LOL.

 

[GallopingFord]

Damn! Jeff that thing looks amazing. FR500s on SN95's are always great looking!

Now... time to heat those springs and make them lower a bit. Haha.

 

[Doug M]

Looks sweet Jeff.

I think the same way...the problem is not the wheels, its that it STILL has a 4x4 height!

Yeah, I was hoping that once the new springs settled it would get more low...I guess it's time to take out some of the spring isolators and see what happens.

It's either that or some coilovers for the front.
