15' Race Red Mustang GT Build

The alignment guy was like I can either push them all the way in or nothing at all, when I asked him why he said because if its somewhere in the middle they won't be even as in one side will be more cambered than the other.

the torque spec on the spindle-end is like 184lbs isn't it? It ain't going anywhere.

Next time slam home the Steeda plate end, and then set the spindle to get 1.2-1.5 degrees. Then when it's track time you loosen ONLY the camber plate end of things.

Someone else can chime in on where the toe adjuster is, I don't know offhand.

Getting tuned by well-known HSI Performance in Ajman who are the Ford Mustang Specialists in the UAE. We did street tuning, and finalized everything on the dyno.

After getting my tune I needed some real traction. Decided to get the MT Street SS in 285/35/19 and boy do they smell good! PS4S smell nice but these smell GOOD! More importantly so much traction and better feedback to the driver! Great for daily use, or as a mild drag setup. Also took it to a car wash with a lift because TLC.

Took it to the track because it's a Track Pack car, so lets see what's it made of! At this point I had the power and grip I wanted and was on the Performance Pack suspension. You can see where the direction of the build sways from here

Installed the MMD by Foose side skirts, they looked great however just like literary everybody else one side fell off the other got scuffed from a speed hump and I kept hearing some weird loud bangs while driving which was scaring me so I took the other side off. O well, I think for the few days they were on it was fun, but definitely holding on to my money next time.

well at least you have the lap times from the F1 series this past weekend to compare against on your shake down runs.

After going through a whole summer here in UAE I realized my tints from Arizona where not going to cut it. Needed something more superior so off with the old and in with the new! Loving the difference and look it makes the color of the car pop even more. Also the shop who did it are the same people who apply the ceramic pro on the car!

Before: Arizona Dealer Installed Tint

After: Night Vision 85% but it is the visibility of a 60-70% (or as in the States its called Limo tint or 5%)

Hahahaha I'm lost for words for those lap times I can't comprehend it lol

Went from being stored to a daily driver! Its a '15 with just 37K miles I have a lot of catching up to do but definitely am enjoying every minute of it!

Swapped out the BMR Handling Springs for the Steeda Minimum Drop springs. Much smoother ride for daily use. I’ve been battling a noise my front end makes intermittently over speed bumps and just can’t seem to figure out what it is. These springs are softer which I can fully appreciate however it hasn’t solved the noise the front end is making at certain times. If anyone can chime in I would appreciate it

It could be, I’ll need to mount a GoPro in the near future and figure out which part it’s coming from

My Fiesta is making squeaking noise over speed bumps and it's sway bar bushings.
