But all there doing is trying to make the cars Into other cars not making them unique. There are still plenty of things out there that haven't been done.

Im sorry but I think suspension and handling should be far ahead of power. My car may have a stock motor but even with the minimal mods I've done in suspension I'm positive it will out handle many cars that have more power and less suspension than mine.

All the younger generation is about is looks and making it look JDM. Our cars are freaking American! Not Japanese.

First off, the Fox v2 -ahem- SN95 chassis is a pretty poor starting platform. And on top of that you have a convertible. Then add in the live axle, macpherson strut design, poor weight distribution (57/43 front/rear), and generally sloppy chassis and you're not sitting too pretty. Not to mention its 3500 lbs.

I'm in the same boat as you and probably more suspension/chassis mods, but I also don't lie to myself lol. My B13 Sentra SE-R or stripped Civic SI would turn circles around this car at an autocross both bone stock as far as suspension is concerned.

I'm not saying they can't be good handling cars there are plenty of people on here that have track prepped Mustangs, but the first 50% of chassis mods are pretty much just playing catch up with other cars.

I also agree that this thread is generally sh!t.

I had a pissy ass 4 door grand am blow my doors off when I was stock. With 2:73's and 185 rwhp I didn't stand a chance. If I had hash marks on my mustang then, I would have taken them off and gave them to him. :0/

I doubt he was surprised, the only thing he had in the interior was the dash and drivers seat. A bone stock v6 with a CAI used to clean up on saturday nights. He just knew how to choose the suckers. I probably wasn't his first Mustang victim.

To top it off, it was gold colored.

As far as the fender stripe remarks, I think that they look good if they are done right. Personally I put them on to cover up a clear coat blemish until I get the car repainted. I tried to mix in a bit of the boss stripe and a bit of hash stripe on mine.

All I see in this thread is [MENTION=8860]Win[/MENTION] worrying about what other people do to their own cars. Why does it matter to you?

You probably do got a point on the budget part but a 2 year old is maybe a little more expensive than some pets. I don't get no help from the government our parents. Pay my own rent insurance phone credit card and utilities on my own (half me & half my girl) I do know I goofed up at having a little one at a young she but oh well. When it comes to mods I go with craigslist or stuff club members are selling

Best thing you will ever do in your life and worth every sacrifice!

I have a 1 and 3 year old and they come first, my mustang can rot in the garage before I take one penny away from my kids to buy mods I can't afford. You will get to the point where you will be able to afford more stuff but take care of your family first.

Is this not a forum where were free to express things?? We discuss things?

So he probably is in love with me or some dumb shit. Who the hell cares ?

Burninrock24 · May 8, 2014

Yeah but then don't whine when you get called out. Like a preacher on campus saying we're all going to die. He has every right to be there, but you're still making an ass out of yourself.
