So some great guy decided that he would come along and steal the tire caps off my gt. So when I saw that first I thought, wow really? But then I had two genuine concerns. First, is the tpms in the screw on cap or in the tire itself? Secondly, why isn't it leaking air? I haven't had them on...

So I've fallen in love with the cdc outlaw wheels ( http://www.americanmuscle.com/cdc-outlaw-black-20x10-1517.html ) but they are wildly expensive and I'm curious as to why. I will happily pay the price if they are actually well engineered, strong and or light weight wheels that also look...

Well after 6 months and 4500 miles of ownership I finally realized how hard RWD can bite. I had heard horror stories of the rear end breaking loose but never experienced it! I was on a huge, empty, wet road, making a turn and sort of did it on purpose to test the car a bit. Mid turn, quarter...

I'm in the market for some new wheels but I know nothing about them. Obviously aesthetics play a large role in my decision but now I've noticed some wheels are made differently and can be made from various materials. So far the only thing I can tell is lighter wheels are better but what else...

My gt is my first gasoline car. It's an auto and at 4200 miles on it the transmission keeps making odd noises. Pinging when switching between p and d. Also clunking when going from a stop and accelerating into first gear. Are these pings and clunks normal?

So I took my car to get its first oil change at a Ford dealer (it was free) but it would appear the tech left a small ding in my fender near the air filter. It is small and hard to see but I'd like to get it fixed. So before the oil change, the tech and I walked around the car and determined...

I understand the differences of torque vs Horsepower on paper but how to apply them in the real world is a different story. Ford offers a couple power packs. Some give low end torque boosts while the others give high end power. If my thinking is correct a drag racer would want high end power...

So my ruby red gt is my first car. When I was buying the car the dealer offered me a 5 year paint warranty from a company called Zaktek. At the time I knew nothing about how to take care of a beautiful shiny red car and I don't have a garage so I thought it would be smart to buy. Anyway I'm...

So I know other cars in the muscle/sports car segment offer cylinder deactivation so if you are just cruising your v8 becomes a 4 to conserve gas milage. Is this something you guys would like to see in the refresh or next model year? I'm personally not a big fan of it. It just seems too...

Hello all. It is a dream of mine to have long tube headers some day however I live in case. I've done some research and have yet to find any ca certified headers. Just wondering if any of you have found some good ones or just found a way to install them anyway! Thanks

So right now my Mustang is still bone stock and I'm loving it. I've done everything from a thousand mile road trip to weekly drag racing. The car is beautifully balanced from the factory. However since racing I've been wanting to get some mods to improve my times. Mainly I was thinking the...

So the other day I took my car drag racing for basically the first time. made 5 runs which were fun and decent times but I what I noticed is how different the car felt afterward. It felt so much more responsive (its an auto) and eager to rev. it seemed sharper and there seems to be much less...

Hey guys last night as I was washing my car I realized that on my front right brake caliper near the top there is a tiny bit of thick fluid coming from the top bolt (or whatever they are called) now because it seemed oily idk how long it's been there. For all I know it could have been there...

Got an automatic gt with 3.15 how much power can I add to the car before the transmission needs to be replaced?

Just found out there is a drag racing strip not too far from my house today that hosts a casual Wednesday night drag for anyone with a drivers license. I wont be competing or anything but it would be cool to see how good of a time i can get so I have a few questions as ive never actually done...

So I bought my base gt (auto trans with the stock 3.15 gears) about 2 or 3 months ago. However I just had the opportunity to take the car on its first full day of spirited driving. I woke up around 6 am and headed to highway 1 in northern California. The first few miles were already packed...

So I mainly use my gt for spirited back road driving. And in my area most of the roads are extremely curvy. Right now I'm running the stock all season 235s which are surprisingly good. I'm thinking of upgrading to a 275 square stance. Maybe some mickey Thompson summer comps. Is 275 square...

Hey guys. So I bought a 2016 automatic base GT a couple months ago. Now I can fairly easily afford the car but I'm worried some major issue will arise with the car that may put me in a financially binding spot. this is my first experience with mustangs and ford. What worries me is if after...

So Ive been around these forums for a little while now and its amazing being around so many people who love the s550 as much as I do. when I was buying this car the only other car I considered was possibly a challenger scat pack but I couldn't get passed the size of that beast. As ive met...

So first off I want to say this isn't a bragging thread and I don't want to promote street racing or anything. This is purely about the mustang as a powerful machine Anyway, the other day I was driving down a mostly empty freeway. Thought I was hovering around 70 but when I looked at the...
