What have you done to your mustang today?

[TGR96]

I installed my BMR watts link last week, but it was creaking and clunking over every bump on the road. So I got under it yesterday and made a few adjustments, re-torqued all the bolts, and re-lubed all the joints. Now it's working properly with no unwanted noises.

Tyler, cant wait to see what you do to this one.

Thanks man!!

You forget some very important thing.

If you're referring to the date I posted on, here's a note that reads:

Dear Cbass (ultimate troll )
Today is April 3rd.
Here is my garage.
=) Carry on.

Made some test hits today from a roll and did a log. Gauge is seeing around 11psi, knock sensors were -2.00, and traction is as good as you can expect on the street with my new setup and 580ish whp. The car actually held on a downshift from first into second from a roll once today and didn't get loose on the shift into 2nd. First time it has ever done that on the street.

Plastidipped the running pony on the grill:

What year is your car ? Where did you get the hood vents from?

 

[o2sys]

It's a 2007. The entire hood is a Saleen hood (FB).

Thanks man!!

God damn! Well, congrats!

I never take ANYTHING seriously on the first. I got some news on the first two years ago, thought it was a seriously good prank and almost lost my job trying to advance the joke.

Turns out, it wasn't a joke. But I kept my job... and it made me realize that I can push the envelope WAY further than I used to think on shit that won't get me fired.

Haha yeah I didn't even realize I was posting everything on the first, just too excited to notice but a few other people asked if it was an April fools joke too lol

I added a little color to my plain jane base interior. I think it came out great.

 

[ZmanM3]

I like it. Did you paint it yourself?

 

[Pardue]

Thanks! I did paint it myself with color matched paint I had mixed up at an automotive paint store and then used 3 coats of clear. I will sand and buff it in a few days to give it an even glossier finish.

Dang Chris, that looks amazing! Great job buddy!

Thanks Chip. I can't wait to wetsand and buff it. It should look better then. Here is another picture with better lighting.

The shift knob is the perfect accent piece!

Girlfriend's Shelby ... got the new 305/35/20 Nitto 555R tires installed, replacing the worn rear Invos, which were 285/30/20:

A nice beefy rear tire is what a Shelby deserves

 

[Doug M]

Looks good! Where'd you get the tires at?

 

[D1984]

Changed the oil (5w-30 pennzoil platinum) and tomorrow it's getting rear tires. Going with 275s on my 10" wheels again because I just can't justify spending almost twice as much for tires that are maybe a half inch wider

 

[Gabe]

Thanks.
We got the tires through AM, their rep on here (Alex) cut us a deal we couldn't refuse.

Still need to do something about the fronts, currently still 5-year-old Invos that are down to the wear bars ...

Got a great deal on a slight used Flowmaster American Thunder cat back system. Huge improvement over stock without being obnoxious.
