Congrats to our AUGUST ROTM Gust98gt. :headbang:





It all started for me when I was about 8 years old. My uncle brought his mint 88 black GT to my house and it had this unique red line around the sides and bumpers that was a real attention getter. My father then asked him if he could rip it up real quick? my uncle said yes and did the best burnout I have ever seen in my life ? it was amazing and to this day I will never forget it.

Later on in life when I was about 15 years old, my cousin bought a 1994 laser red GT (SN95) which was the car of my dreams! It was the last of the 5.0?s and was simply gorgeous. I knew that I eventually had to have a Mustang at some point in my life!

As I became of age, I saved enough money to purchase a 1985 viper blue GT. It was a great and enjoyable car but I ended up blowing up the motor so I sold it. After that, I slowed down a bit and bought an Accord coupe. The coupe was nice but after a year or two, I had the itch for some raw, violent American muscle again. That?s when I went ahead and traded the Accord for my current 1998 Mustang GT. It was gorgeous in every way imaginable (my favorite body style) but the engine was a sad excuse for a V8. It only put down 197RWHP and 263RWTQ.

I had added a few mods that consisted of the following? gears, intake, pro 5.0 shifter and suspension. Those modifications definitely helped improve my car but I discovered it wasn?t enough after I got my *ss handed to me by a stock 2003 GT and a stock automatic S197. I knew it was time for a new power plan, so after some more modifications my car currently puts down 302RWHP and 318RWTQ and I couldn?t be happier. Now I don't have to worry about too many other cars.

Wow Gus, that thing moves out to run a 13.0! You are 1.6 seconds quicker than I am! I'm trying to get my car into the 13's. Hopefully I can do that if I add some drag radials. Right now I spin pretty bad in 2nd gear on the track unless I granny shift it.

Where did you get the black chrome 03s?

I have two friends with them. One of them has a pair that looks like yours, then the other has a set that are darker but are still black chrome.

I want a set one day so I was curious where you got yours.
