What have you done to your mustang today?

[Sn8kebitten]

I broke the mod ice a few days ago with some Raxiom 5th gen tails on my newish 07 GT. Now I've got a set of low mileage GT500 shocks and struts sitting in my bedroom and I plan on ordering some H&R SS springs with all the suspension goodies. Also buying a set of 19" 2011 GT/CS wheels and tires from my uncle for $100 lol. I can't wait to see how the car looks afterwards

Look into some 1" spacers/adapters.
Those GT/CS 19x8.5's sit inward a bunch

Installed winter wheels and snow tires. Now my Bullitt looks like a base v6.

Never seen one of those before, that one does look pretty good and doesn't break the bank like the FRPP one.

Loaded my race tune back in, definitely pulls harder vs. the performance tune I've been driving around with the last few months, especially at low RPMs

 

[Kuplex]

good to know. what's the normal mileage to change em out?

I think most people change them between 50k and 100k (25k to 50k for the 2-piece to try and prevent breaking). I was waaaay behind and changed at 102k. Since I know they are so easy, I'll most likely be doing it every 50k. Used FORD SP509 plugs (stock).

 

[bujeezus]

got a little over 60k on mine now. went with the ngk as the ford plugs were sold out. went ahead an picked up a fuel filter too locally. maybe next weekend i'll be able to change everything out. replaced the k&n that came in the car with an r2c performance dry filter. very nice piece. even comes with a green screen to match the car.

[swflastang05]

i am scared , LOL .

LOL It's the only way you'll be able to set your pinion angle correctly. If you installed all that other shit you can do the UCA also, suck it up!

Admission is a few cold beers! And I know the feeling with all the boxes, my wife's pretty much used to it by now though lol.

You can use the level/compass feature to get the angle if you have an iPhone

 

[JUSTA3V]

Tremec has an app called toolbox for the smartphone.

It's better than just using the level app I find.

I second this. It's an excellent app for measuring and setting pinion angle. I recommend it to people all the time.


I'm going to be installing some A-arms and new struts/shocks on my car this afternoon. Just need to wait for my a-arms to finish being assembled.
