Exactly, a single stop is 100% related to traction, not your braking system. Every single car sold for decades has a brake system that can lockup the tires on the first stop. No mod can help brake any more than that. Braking systems modifications only help with standing up to heat over...
When I first started driving my Mach 1, I was fairly unsmooth on my 1/2 shift and would upset the car by shifting too fast. The gap in gearing between 1st and second is fairly large and you need to wait a beat before going from one to two to allow the revs to fall enough. Maybe a completely...
Huh? The things you miss when you stop looking sure are a shame. That pig could come optioned under 3600lbs, which is a good weight savings on my Mustang. As for poor driving dynamics and feedback, come on now. It is perfectly clear you have never been in one. Well I have not either, so I...
Products and ingredients in every one of our houses huh? That is a good clue. Not a lot that all of us Mustang owners own right. I think you are trying to throw us off with the whole food scientist thing and am going with the obvious. Teen Cosmopolitan! Final answer.
I'll chime in as a Factory Five Cobra Daytona Coupe builder to add a little more info for the OP or others with interest. These cars do pull at most car guys harts. In fact, I bet you could show a picture of a cobra to kids and non car people and get them all to admit they think it is cool...
I recently purchased a 2021 Mach 1 that I am looking to details but want to make sure I don't screw things up. I'm certainly not an expert here but when buy a car, I like to clay bar, compound, polish, and ceramic coat it to get the paint in as good a shape as I can manage. However, I've never...
Almost 5 years old but she was still a showroom car. I sure was happy how nice it was when I came to check it out and I ended up buying it. It is nice you can still find great examples out there. It rained on the way home though, so now I need to clean her up again before I get better shots...
Hi, I just bought a 2021 Mustang Mach 1 with a Tremec 6-speed and am thrilled to join the club. Been a while since I was in a manual fun car but I seem to be right back into it without issue. Well... the shifts have gone well but my hip is confused about what the heck I think I'm doing and...
I got it out of the showroom and into my garage. If I'm honest though, the showroom is nicer than my garage. Poor girl, better go look for a gift for her to make up for the newly cramped quarters.
Well... I'm just about done building a recreation of a 1965 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe, the car Shelby's team built themselves and took to Europe to beat Ferrari before Ford paid Shelby to fix the Lola/Ford GT40. I could go on and on about the car and its history, but it is safe to say the...
I am also debating the same question. For me, the GT probably makes more sense as it will be my DD. I would probably take it to the track to experience it once this summer and do a few AutoXs but mainly it would be a DD. I have been building Factory Five Shelby Daytona Coupe with a Coyote and...
That is just the ring and pinion set for a 3.73 ratio but you are right, they now have the Torsen available again. Part number M-4204-MT. That is good to see. I really don't want to pull the pumpkin back out of my kit but it is the only used part. Ugh. I'm doing it on jack stands and it...
Come on now, the Coyote is much larger then the LS. You don't see Coyotes in corvettes because it won't really fit, not because its not a good idea. Well... okay there are multiple reasons you don't see Corvettes with coyote swaps.
Ford won't sell you a new 3.73 separately. They did in the past but stopped to force people to buy the package. It is the only used part I am using on my build and it is because Ford wants to milk as much profit as possible out the Mustangs and nothing is better then expensive option packages...
Wait at least until you can get exactly what you want without paying over MSRP. Probably be good to wait until next model year too. Just don't be one of the fools who pays way over sticker so they can have one a few months earlier.
Yup, went up $1,200 and there were no changes as far as I am aware. Kind of sucks, I don't really feel it is worth $5K. I think they are trying to direct people to the PP2.
And 301A. As far as I can tell the lowest MSRP possible with MR is $45,575 which is a base GT with no options but PP2 and 301A. If you go base GT with PP1, 301A, and MR, you are just at $45,965 I think.
