    Service Advance Trac

    I was running an autocross this weekend. I had track mode on and advance trac off. Halfway through the course I'd notice it say "advance trac service" and then cut off track mode and re-engage traction control and set steering back to normal. This didn't happen every time, but got rather...

    New Mustang Ordered

    I ordered a 15 GT on June 1st. The only update on it I received was at the beginning of August I was told it would be here 14th-21st. They said the ecoboost recall delayed it. I was told it is still a 15 and not a 16. My question is, how true is this? I've never ordered a new car...

    Should I or Shouldn't I?

    Coming from an 03 Cobra with just an upper pulley, should I get a new 5.0? I love the looks, and love the interior... but It didn't pull near as hard as the cobra when I test drove it. I did not drive a 3.73 gear one though. My cobra puts down some crap numbers (mail order tune), 415/450...

    Stupid Pulley Question

    I'm sure this has been answered 100 times before (I searched), but I'm trying to install my billetflow hub/ring without a pulley puller. I got the stock pulley off with the 3 arm autozone pulley puller. To put it back on, I was going to heat the hub up and put anti-seize on the snout. Then...

    convertible weather!

    It was 75 and sunny Saturday so I got some new pics. I took the stock shroud off to expose my amazing wagon wheel.

    Matte black vs Flat Black

    (Dennis Leary) Am I the asshole here? (/Dennis Leary) I ordered some matte black racing stripes and got, what I would call, gloss black stripes. It looks like your standard black vinyl. The company said if I wanted the ones that look greyish, that is called flat black. They are taking care...

    Brace Yourselves.... Potential plasti dip thread

    Ok hear me out before you say OMG PLASTI DIP NO. I wonder what matte black racing stripes would look like on my black cobra. I figure the easiest way to find out is lay down some plasti dip matte black and see what it looks like. Sure it'll have a slight texture to it, but at least I won't...

    Who cleans their interior religiously? (daily drivers)

    Its hard to daily drive the car, especially a black car, and keep the outside clean, but who here cleans their interior all the time? I find myself cleaning it once a week if not more. I can't stand to see dirt/grass in my floor board...

    Opinions wanted on stance

    I feel like the ride height is just about perfect. This is with H&R race springs and only bottom isos. I'm debating if I like the matte black cobra rims (rear are the AFS 17x10.5 replicas). I think I want 18s... maybe matte black FR500s even though that's been done to death. Ugg 18" rear...

    front brake pad replacement

    Ok, I have never done brakes before. I figured I would give it a shot. I got the pads in no problem, but then couldn't get the piston to compress. I then loosened the brake line bolt (yes i didn't know how to bleed them at this point... I learn as I go). The piston compressed ans shot out a...
