    05-10 Koni yellow sports - new in box $650

    I bought a 15 a couple months back, never installed these on my 14. Best pricing I've seen is $842. Prefer a local sale. Here's my Craigslist ad. Only opened for pics to show what they are. All you need to run these on a 11-14 is the GT500 upper mount, which is about $90 from Autonation...

    Changing from 11-14 Mustangs......

    I pick up my 15 GT PP ingot silver car tomorrow evening. Seems every color I wanted got gone mighty quickly, so I took what I could at this crazy deal! It's not like silver is a bad color, so I'm happy. I test drove one briefly several weeks back, kind of strung along and was wishy washy...

    Anyone removed MGW and reinstalled stock shifter?

    I'm trading my 14 GT, so I'm debating on installing the stock shifter. Things seem much harder going back in since that factory shifter has so many parts that go back into the shifter base. It wouldn't take long for me to get the MGW out as it's pretty fresh in my mind. The 15 GT shifter is...

    Chinese billet axles?

    Anyone hear of these or know who has them? At least they'll match the trans......

    Endless CAI debate question....

    So I called two of the local Mustang shops and both recommended and carry the JLT. I know a ton of members here swear by the Airaid. Is there any proven difference between them? They also charge $350 for a tune.

    Boss IM with Airraid or CJ set up - possible FI in the future

    I'm either gonna start modding my 14 or get a new 15. It looks like the Boss is quite the cost effective way to go, you lose a little torque down low. It's my DD, I will run the dragstrip as well as some HPDE events. Eventually, I'd like to add a Paxton/Procharger/whoever style supercharger...

    Detonation above 5000 at WOT with SCT X4 installed tune

    I thought it was just my Carter custom tune, so I removed it and used the SCT standard tune. My car only has a drop in AFE and GT500 mufflers. It detonates above 5k at WOT, so I back off immediately. I guess I could try some top tier 93 octance, but I figured just running 93 octane would be...

    Anyone regret trading/selling their 11-14 GT in on a 15 GT?

    Just wondering if the honeymoon stage wore off and the new fangled greatness wore off and you wish you had your "old" GT back? I'm on the fence, but if I keep mine the wife is ok with modding it just like my f-bodies of the past. I've had mine a year and 13k miles. It would be about $3k more...

    Carquest sale on Castrol Edge 5/50 to dealers

    Finally got a deal for working at a car dealership. Just got Castrol Edge 5/50 for $6.76 a quart. (Reformulated with Syntec for even better performance...) I may call and order 8 more just because it's such a deal. I ran the regular Motorcraft semi-syn last time, but just decided I want to run...

    First ever HPDE event for me at Roebling Road Raceway on 4/10/15!!

    I can't really put into words what that experience was like. My instincts definitely were fighting what my instructor told me to do and where to place my car. It was quite the ball check and physical/mental workout. We started a 9am (arrived at 7!!) and had a 20 minute session every hour...

    Reputable tuner via email or local dyno tune?

    Without going into details, I need a new tuner. I have a few local shops, Piedmont Custom Motorsports and Fastlane Motorsports. Would/should I be better going with an email tune or go with one of my two local shops. I don't know a whole lot about the local guys, I've heard good things about...

    Old Dodge Ram VS GTR

    This Ram reminds me of that Chevy Farm truck..... craziness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8uOrRqIUBc

    A few affordable, sporty cars at our Cars and Coffee yesterday

    It was about 31 degrees outside and only a few cars showed up. I saw the post on FB and forgot all about it. My 12 year old is a car freak (much more than I might have been at 12), so we headed out to see these.....

    Another street racing gone bad

    While I love to go fast and race, I've always wondered how there aren't more of these "accidents". I would never been one of the people just standing along the side of the road while this is going on. It's just stupid I don't care what anyone says. Not worth taking the chance. RIP to them...

    Sorry if repost, but this is one wicked Vette!

    Lower control arms, for those thinking about them.

    They don't do anything for wheel hop. I don't care what anyone says, mine does the exact same wheel hopping it did before I installed them. It seems the upper control arm and/or lowering springs seems to take care of it. The only thing I've noticed from my new LCA's is noise. I greased them...

    Anyone seen a better price than $680 for Koni yellows?

    Seems that's the best price I've found for 05-10 Mustang Koni yellows. I've always gone with the lesser expensive stuff in years past and regretted it (KYB's, stock shocks/aftermarket springs).....imagine that. Funny thing is, when I was a kid back in 91, I bought Tokico Illumina adjustables...

    Build date for 14's that might have 15 engine parts?

    I bought what I think is a late production 14 GT and just read some of them have 15 internals/heads. Maybe that's bogus, thought I would ask just so I know. Thanks!

    Wheel hop...

    So, after having many rwd cars, I finally gave in and installed LCA's with the expectation I would lessen this Coyote wheelhop madness. Well, it seems to spin sideways and quickly in first gear, so I pedaled some and short shifted to second only to experience that mad wheel hop again. Maybe...

    LCA bolts/nuts

    I understand Ford says to replace any bolts or nuts removed from the chassis/suspension. Seems kind of silly to me with a low mileage car where I'm replacing the lower control arms. Is this the consensus, or do most buy new Ford bolts and nuts? I just figured I could loctite them and call it...

    Passed about 10 guys in Coyote's on 40 West near Penhook VA yesterday about noon....

    Think I saw an orange 10 GT with a 5.0 (Parnelli Jones car?), a bunch of 5.0 GT's, a GT500 or two. I was heading back home to NC in my white 14 GT headed east. I gave a thumbs up once I realized it was a group, got a few light flashes back. They may have been headed to the Folklife Festival...

    Anyone compare Vogtland springs to FRPP "P" springs?

    Daily driven car with occasional track visits, very occasional.... Also plan on dragstrip passes. I don't want it too low for clearance reasons and don't want to use up too much of the suspension travel. I was pretty set on the P springs, but then I came across the Vogtlands with full specs...

    Welding axle tubes in Raleigh/Apex/Cary NC area

    Just wondering if anyone has had it done in this area and about how much it cost. I know Robert at R&J Welding is a long time welder, not sure if he's done these or not. Possibly a tube frame chassis or rollcage welder in the area?

    Upper strut mounts.......giving CPR to the dead horse.

    Ok, so I've seen the pics and understand the GT500's are "better" than the stock mounts. My car only has 1500 miles, so mine should be fine. I couldn't help but notice a lot of guys get the caster/camber plates and haven't heard anyone complain about those. They have no rubber or poly on them...
