  1. I broke two records today...

    I'm having a hard time envisioning getting the car into 2nd at 70mph. There should have been a lot of resistance as the synchronizers protested this mismatch. If one actually forced it into 2nd at that speed and released the clutch, I would expect the rear tires to decelerate so quickly as to...
  2. Debating on a '10-12 GT500 or a '15-'16 Mustang GT

    I've discussed this topic with a co-worker that sold his GT500 and now is in a 2015 GTPP. He mentioned that the GT500 was too much power in a daily driver. He would blow the tires off in 1st, 2nd, and half way through 3rd. He did state that the 70-120mph pull was intoxicating, but the chance...
  3. GT Cowl Brace & Strut Brace needed?

    I have added the Steeda tower brace and extreme g-trac lower brace. I don't plan to autocross, but I do like to rush through a corner now and again. I noticed improvement in cornering FEEL. Whether this translates to faster cornering speed or not, I haven't checked. The best I can explain...
  4. 3M Paint Protection Film (Trunk Ledge)

    I have used it on our Toyota Highlander. I have the hood and trunk lip kit waiting in my garage for the Mustang. I don't have a long history with it yet, as it has only been on for six months. I've had great luck with headlight protection from xpel. The 3M pro is available from...
  5. 3M Clear Bra for our new 2015 Mustang

    I believe xpel would prevent that damage. I have it on my headlights now and on the lase three cars I've owned. It is very thick when compared to 3M. On the plus side, I never had headlight damage or yellowing.
  6. 1500 mile ecoboost oil....looks a bit gray and smells like fuel

    Let me start by saying I am NOT a factory trained mechanic. What you described to me with the grey color of the oil is normal for a new engine. Modern engine building has made for very tight tolerances and less need to "break in an engine." The key thing with new engines is to get the piston...
  7. Corsa extreme! holy crap!

    Wow! Thunder Valley came to mind. I hear it echo off the hills. I like the tone too, and not overly raspy/poppy. I've always liked a car with a deep exhaust tone/throb. I went with the Magnaflow competition for mine. A little loud in the cab at 1800-2000, but nothing a little dynamat and...
  8. Starting in 2nd Gear

    I'd like to take a poll - I bet that if you have an aftermarket exhaust, you are less likely to skip shift. Listening to that shift is pure music! :love:
  9. Steeda G Trac and IRS subframe braces

    This update may help a few of you installing the G-trac brace. I installed mine last night and ran into a small issue (aside from not having the 12mm allen head socket). Previously, I had read about people having to grind down the spacers. I felt around in the rear holes and realized the...
  10. FREAKING DEER!!!!

    Bummer dude. I've been very fortunate over the years never to have been hit (knock on wood). Had a few close calls. I notice your sig shows an aftermarket exhaust. In my F150 with the magnaflow cat-back I always had deer freeze or run away, never toward. I felt that "loud pipes save lives"...
  11. Regret List

    I regret Ford not installing a "remove traffic congestion" button like in the movie Bruce Almighty.
  12. How does your woman let you drive when she is in the car?

    I haven't had a chance to gauge the wife's response yet in the Mustang. My last ride was a supercharged Harley F150 with 3.73 gears and over 425 lb.ft @ 2250 rpm. I installed a shift kit and the 1-2 shift would leave rubber and bounce her head off the headrest. She'd say, "I wish you'd stop...
  13. Anyone that owns a mustang & has a Girlfiend/wife has been in this situation

    The wife and I have a chuckle together occasionally remembering a CSI episode. The wife went missing and the husband was the suspect. No body was found. CSI eventually found wife cut up and stuffed in hot water heater. Once the husband, a meek man, was outed - he replied, "She naaaagged...

  15. Breaking necks/compliments

    I don't know if to take this as a compliment or not, but one at work stated "Can't hide money!" I mentioned that I had to take some out from under the mattress as my nose was rubbing the ceiling fan!
  16. Vanity plates on the new 2015's

    Maybe a dated saying, but I went with "CU L8R" after all my alternatives were taken: 1BADPONY BAD PONY GIDDY UP FASTPONY
  17. Introduce yourself!!

    Hello all. New member here. My name is Dan and I recently purchased a 2015 GT in Deep Impact Blue. I live in North Carolina. My previous ride was a 2002 Ford F150 Harley Davidson edition crew cab which I enjoyed for 13 years and 104,000 miles. It was one of two years (2002/2003) with the...
