Changed out the lower grill today pics coming soon.

I noticed something I hadn't spotted in the install videos online. There were three senor looking tabs connected to the inside of the front bumper, attached to the middle section you take out for installing the lower grill, it plugs in on the drivers side the plug is together with the ones for the lights.

Any ideas?

Those are the pedestrian impact sensors.

I tried to get a wheel alignment today . I couldn't go to the guys that did it last time with no problems no bullshit ,& no mustang tax . So I thought I'd go to the franchise shop some where else , big mistake , no idea the bullshit was flying everywhere and no wheel alignment!! What a waste of fucking time !! I'll go back to the original guys tomorrow.
Just a quick question is there any camber adjustment on the front? I know there's minimal on the rear .

Thanks [MENTION=23888]envyyvne[/MENTION]. It's a custom box I made up over the past couple of weekends. Probably about $50 in materials Plus the sub and amp.

What box is that Kramer? Looks like a very clean install nice work!

Headed down to BTA Motorsports today to finally get the Steeda Tri Ax Race Shifter installed. Took about 3-4hrs as there is a bit to it. Getting the reverse collar right at the end took a bit of fiddling but we got there.


As for performance, my god it's so good! The throw is much much shorter, it sits a little lower too. I'm still getting used to it so my shifts aren't the greatest but I can tell it likes being shifted hard and fast (don't we all lol).
There is slightly more vibration coming through now as the rpms climb but I guess that's expected.


As you'll see I went a bit nuts with the dynamat and focal sound deadening but it was worth it.

Is all the sound deadening solely for noise and vibration Phil? Ive never seen it done before around a shifter

Yep, spot on! They give you some dynamat but i bought more and the focal stuff after explaining to the guy what I was doing.

There does seem to be a bit more vibration in the car but not a bad way, actually makes the car sound beefier.

Also the trans whine from 130km/hr onwards has been reduced a lot which is nice
