  1. V6 Drivetrain Questions for DD/Autocross

    For DD/Autocross the best mod is the driver mod. Get seat time, seat time, seat time. We had two experienced drivers that would embarrass most drivers in their stock V6 mustang and stock Honda Civic with their RAW times, and have some of the top PAX times. I would focus on TIRES and wheels...
  2. 550's are the best

    I like Mustangs up to 1970. Didn't really care for them again until the S550 came out. Now that the S650 is out, I'll look for used S550's or classic Mustangs if buying another Mustang. No hate, just not my style.
  3. How do I shift better/faster?

    My Mustang is only an V6 and an automatic. My other car is a V6 manual. I don't know what it's like to no-lift-sift a higher horsepower, rear wheel drive car. I assume it's much easier to break loose the tires. So, not sure how it will work. My technique is to start shifting out of gear as your...
  4. Anyone in AZ with a 18+ Ruby Red GT, let's trade hoods

    My car is 2016. But I have a TruFiber hood I want to get painted and swap. May I ask where you had your hood painted? I was quoted $3000-3500 to paint and blend into the bumper and fenders.
  5. Me and my old mustang photos -Post pics of your old Mustangs

    1970 Mach 1 clone with 351C. Ran great, but needed a lot of work restoring trim, moldings, badges, interior, etc... I was in my mid 20's. Wish I still had it.
  6. Slight Drone

    It's hard for someone to give advice on a mix and match frankenstein type exhaust that no one else has installed. I would assume the bigger oval mufflers would have less drone, but it depends on whats inside. I have the MagnaFlow resonated "X" muffler and the SVE's 2015-2017 Mustang GT cat-back...
  7. Regular temp for 2016 v6 ?

    Mine stays level around 210 and that's in AZ.
  8. DIY Wheel Cribbing

    Here is my over engineered version... Aluminum strips are to keep the top or the extension from sliding sideways. Designed years ago for my other car with 16" wheels, should still work for the Mustang.
  9. The "run" part of a hit and run.

    When I was a courier, before dash cams I chased down two hit and run cars. Being in an inconspicuous delivery car, I just followed them until they stopped to check the damage on their car. I rolled up behind them and got the license plate number, car make/model and color and a description of the...
  10. Overspray

    I doubt my work will pay for anything. But the owner is a car guy and also races, so he may have some sympathy for me? He may have a place he takes his cars to and get them to hook me up?
  11. Overspray

    Gave it a good thorough hand and power wash and about 90% of it washed away. You can still feel it when you run your hand across the paint. Good enough until I get it professionally done and other parts painted. Thanks for the replies.
  12. Overspray

    What about for my Probe . . .😐 Ford Probe GT?
  13. Overspray

    I never intended to try lacquer thinner or any other chemicals on my paint. I tried the Goo Gone stuff on the gum, worked a little bit. But, I was afraid, rinsed it off and washed right away. My car needs a good polish and wax, so I thought this would give me a reason to get it done. I just...
  14. Overspray

    Some co-workers were in the parking lot painting some metal tables. My car was about 7 car widths away and there was no wind. When I saw him painting he was close to the table and almost no mist floating around. Later on I saw him with the table up on a forklift spraying up in the air and a big...
  15. FS: 2016 Mustang GT Part Out

    Received the Velossa Tech's today, fast shipping, thanks!
  16. Introduce yourself!!

    Name is Steve. Bought a 2016 Mustang V6 to replace my other V6 daily driver. Went to the dealership to buy a Focus or Fusion Titanium but saw the Mustang. I couldn't afford a GT at the time and found out it was a V6 for half the price of a GT. I'm glad it was there or I would be in a Focus or...
  17. What you think of the new Mustang?

    Looks like they used Camaro and Dodge(?) styling cues. The grille looks like it's starting to evolve into a truck grille like on the Ranger. The interior looks like it's progressing into an electric car interior. All the curvy lines are smoothed out. The car seems bland and unexciting to me...
  18. Tips on how to control yourself when people try to race you?

    Those are closer to my level. I chose the V6 to replace my Mazda 626 V6 daily driver because I know how much trouble I would be in if I got the GT. I can just let V8 cars drive on by, no chance so don't have to bother(except the Dodge 5.7's). I had two Dodge Chargers and one Chrysler 300 racing...
  19. Tips on how to control yourself when people try to race you?

    Well, I only have a V6 and EVERY single Dodge Charger, Challenger or Chrysler 300 will go out of their way to show me what a douche they are. They'll do a fly by in the center turning lane, shoulder or even oncoming traffic lane just to prove it. Cutting off other drivers, kicking up debris...
  20. Rotten Smell After Hard Acceleration

    I also have the gun powder smell, sometimes it smells like burning hair or someone getting a perm. I have a V6 with a tune and when I get on it the A/F drops to mid/low 11's. So it might just be the extra fuel and/or their ethanol blend or additives in it? Maybe the cats are losing their...
