Mustang Owners...

LilPixieMama75 · Feb 23, 2007

I noticed there were several Mustang owners on the forums. Show us what you've got and tell us what you have in it.

Here's what we have...

Mine: 1998 Mustang GT 5-Speed

We haven't begun the modding on mine yet. I have a Saleen wing. We need to redo the seals because they are leaking a bit since the new engine went in last Summer. We are also going to change out the speedo to the 140 mph one. I'm deciding on wheels I like still. The owner before my BF (I bought it from my BF) thought it would be a good idea to paint a lot of the interior plastic pieces (door handle bezels, plate around the shifter, trim around the A/C knobs, etc.) red. They don't match the car's color & remind me too much of being "ricey." So, I'll be on the hunt for new pieces at Fun Ford this year. I'd like to go Billet on some of them.

Boyfriend: 1993 Mustang GT Automatic

He has all sorts of mods that I really can't think of off the top of my head at the moment. I know he has the LX tails & Billet door handles & A/C knobs. He has engine & exhuast mods, but I forget what. He also wants to do the "Back in Black" interior.

He also has a 1983 Mustang LX Notchback sitting in the sideyard waiting for an overhaul & engine transplant. This will be his street legal racer. We've got too many projects in the fire right now, so it is patiently waiting for some TLC. There is also a wrecked 1991 Mustang LX sitting over there that was the engine donor for my car along with being the parts car for all our Mustangs. LOL!

Nice and cheap performance cars to modify. I miss my 92 GT.

My Mustang

I bought mine back in 88 and did some work to it last year. It ran strong and went 197,000 miles before I decided to rebuild it and make it faster.

I sent the engine to my friend the master engine builder. The upper and lower intakes were ported and so where the heads. Added a set of 1.6 roller rockers to the valvetrain. Ceramic coated headers, X pipe, and a 2.5" stainless steel exhaust system was added.

The T-5 manual transmission was beefed up and completely rebuilt. King Cobra Clutch,new flywheel, and B&M shifter were added. The rear end was rebuilt and a 3.73:1 ring gear and axle girdle were also added.

Maximum motor sport lower control arms, SVO upper control arms, B springs, and KYB struts and shocks were installed to complete the suspension work.

A set of GTS seats and new carpet completed the interior. I'm planning on painting it later on this spring.

Its been a great car. It was a bang for the buck purchase when I bought it. Reliable, mod friendly, and fast.

Going to the engine builder

Back from machine shop and assembly begins

That is nice.

I have an '06 GT 5-speed. SO far only mods are a K&N drop-in filter, and an SLP axel-back exhaust. Future mods will be a Whipple supercharger, CLT CAI, predator tuner with custom tune from Brenspeed, 4.10's and an offroad x-pipe. That should put me at around 430hp, the safe limit before having to forge the internals. Also should put me in the mid-high 11's.

Thanks. You've got two nice platforms to work with. I'm partial to the FOX body style. For less than 13K you got 225HP & 300 FT LBS of torque, forged pistons, shorty headers, 5 speed tranny, and solid performance.

I'm a sucker for the Fox body. I have been in love with them since I started driving. I love the fact that you can get so much out of them for so little.

I don't own a stang but here is my dream mustang

A 2004 SVT cobra in red or white. I love em!

altspace · Feb 27, 2007

One of my best summers was spent driving this baby. 1985 Ford Mustang GT conv. w/no cats, tri-flow Flowmasters and 3" tubing. Only engine mods were performance plugs and ACCEL yellow wires. I did install a decent aftermarket audio system though. Only owned her for less than a year because I moved to a different state.

i'm not sure really. i believe he has it on craigslist. i think his asking price is way high, just to keep flakers away. its got under 60000 orginal miles. i think he will be able to get somewhere around 12, thats what i see others selling for. i have no idea what he wants for it though, i always low ball him and say 4000 lol

Understandable. It's certainly a nice ride.

Well Hell since we are talking about mustangs i'll chime in.

Keeping in the spirit of my mustang is part of the resaon i bought my MS3

1985 Mustang SVO
2.3 ltr .030 overbore
Stock crank/rods
ARP bolts/studs throughout
P&P head with bigger valves and highlift cam (whopping .420 over .390)
Fully ported and match upper/lower intake
65mm TB (SN95 donor)
T3/T4 turbo 50 trim (good for 30+ psi of boost)
Currently a log style header, but i also have a All =length tubular header
3" DP, 2.5" dual exhaust, no cat, no mufflers(actually quiet)
Custom FMIC
Stock computer w/ Piggyback chip, 65# inj, 255 fuel pump, MAF converted 90mm MAF Mallory Ignition w/ 2step
upgrade 8.8 rearend
FMS upper control arms
Lots of gauges (11 of them)(most autometer, one WBo2 meter)

etc
etc..........

Last run on the dyno was 322WHP and 346WTRQ (posted dyno sheet in the dyno thread area)

This was on 26psi of boost 29* of total timing and a little torco added to 5-6 gals of 93 pump.

New mods are the tubular header and redesigned IC setup. Future mod is Methonal injection and 30 psi of boost. going for 400whp.

After dumping so much money into this, i had to get a car that was turboed from the factory and ran good. My SVO runs nice, WHEN it runs. Shes a tempermental little Biotch

More photos HERE

Feel free to look around on the photos i have a ton.

Very nice SVO. Fox platform is the best looking IMO.
