What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[JohnnyGT]

I hear you, I just put in $100

Ouch! I had to fill up my Lexus last week and the pump cut me off at $100. 22.5 gallon tank In the boat; of course 91+. Could't fully fill it. FML

Stripped the bent front end..
Frame check this week to see if anything needs pulling or replacing.

A big pile of bent Mustang parts…

Big incident with a tire wall at VIR last weekend…

Well fuck!

I'm sorry man. I wanted to come down and watch the event.

Take the dashboard off and unplug the guages. four screws to take the gauge pack off and I think 2-4 screws to take the face and lens off to clean

Didn't know you could take the front off. Will have to give it a try.

 

[Mr. Met]

Try tapping gently on the face. Maybe it will fall down and be unnoticeable. Otherwise you have to take the whole thing apart and also risk making it worse.

Tried that. Tapped it, gave it a shake, didn't move. Its just really anoying seeing it every time I look at the gauge.

Spent $73 to fill it up.

In Oz we can spend $80 and not fill up.

Today I installed a Passenger Side JLT Oil Mist Separator. It was only 17 degrees F in my garage, much too cold to install my dead pedal trim or my Hurst Indy Short Throw Shifter. I hope to do those Thursday when it’s supposed to go up to 70.

What I did to my Mustang today

Painted this fire hydrant to match my car.

An old (Dec 2015) photo of my previous car. I wonder if the person who bought it gets asked about how the color scheme is the same as the Ukrainian flag?

Slava Ukraini!

I hate this weather! 25F this morning at 6am drive into NYC. 75F last weekend. Supposed to get that 74F weather here on Thursday with T storms. You need some heat in that garage.

Installed the Ford Performance center gauge.

I noticed there is a small speck/dust on the inside of the glass. Anyone have an idea on how I can get this off?

used to repair/recal guages.

you gotta take apart.

tip - use a fine jewelers screwdriver, or a large sewing needle
roll the tip on the back of masking tape till it picks up a layer of adhesive.
-now you have a s sticky 'q-tip' to pickup dust particles.

Installed a set of front and rear Rokblokz, not too much of a hassle to go on

does it have a mounting fastener near the tip at the top, or just tape? If it's tape, then it will peel off and collect all kinds of stones. Or I may be confused the RK with the ones from ZL1-addons. Whichever that does NOT have a fastener at the tip is to be avoided.

There’s a plastic clip that pinches the wheel opening at the top.

I, too, had the mud flaps (NXT) that had double sided tape. The double sided tape didn't hold up well, and collected rocks under. I'll likely replace the fronts with Rokblocks.

Went to the track over the weekend. Best ET was. 12.55 @114mph. Slow 60’…2.0 Car also feels like it falls on its face at the end of track when it’s shifting from 6th to 7th. It’s stock motor, stock exhaust. Base GT A10. Ran all my pass’s in Sport mode. Line locks work great for the burnout.
It’s going on E85 before we go back to track, hopefully the tranny can be tuned on these 22’s as well. All in all my son and I had a great weekend of racing. We lost in 1st round of eliminations….dialed a 12.9 and ran a 12.8 @113mph.

They have the clip. That’s why I went with those. The tape wouldn’t last at all where I live. With the screws they use, I don’t see these going anywhere. The top clip fits snug, I don’t see it going anywhere.
