Your only 16 and drive a GT? Well don't even drive it yet? Damn dude your one lucky son of a *****!

But my current favorite non power adding mod has been my poly trans mount. My buddy and I put that on on his lift at work and damn it was night and freakin day I could shift so much better.. But then again you don't have a manual. But dude get any sort of urethane bushings that you can. They make the biggest difference.

Yeah the control arms just make everything more solid. I have J&M (I think thats the name?) rear lowers that my buddy literally gave to me, and I'm waiting to get my urethane diff bushings and I'll be putting those on. He has them on his already and said that the whole rear end feels much more solid. So that's something I would look into if your low on cash but wanna make the best of what you got. I know at 16 I thought I was rich as what if I had $20. Now I'm broke as what if I've only got $20 lmao

just whenever you get your license, don't go off ****in around too much. it's hard to restrain sometimes, especially as a new driver, and ESPACIALLY driving a mustang. mine's only a v6, but you gottta remember, that even though it's not a race car, that if you can really hurt yourself, or others if you're not careful. sorry if i sound like a little prick, but i've seen 5 or 6 of my friends get into awful accidents, one of them he wound up killing his cousin. so just be careful alright dude? don't try an show off before you know how the car responds to anything and everything you throw at it.

back to your car, lol. how many miles that thing got on it?

No prob bud! Glad I could be of service. And lol yupp then you know exactly what I'm talkin about when it comes to the money haha.

Holy crap only $170 for both upper and lower.. Shit the ones I have are about $140 just for the 2 lol. They look legit tho, urethane bushings, tubular design. I'd give em a shot man there definitely better than what you got!

And Belb give him a break man at 16 I ran shit lmao. I drove like a dick and now I'm paying the price for it because the cops around here target the crap out of my daily... Hahaha. Wise words from a 17yr old tho Belb. I didn't think like that till I was about... 20. Which I am now haha

i wasn't trying to sound like momma or daddy ahha. just words from a man who's seen enough people crying in waiting rooms of hospitals and wondering if you're ever gonna see your bud again is enough to make me say somethin to someone who's gonna be a little more independent soon.

True true. If my parents told me that a Prius was fast I'd be like shut the fukk up. If my buddy told me tho... Well I'd still tell him to shut the fukk up but I'd at least think about it lmao. Sorry couldn't find a better comparison off the top of my head but I completely agree with that!

I hear you. I got a heavy foot but only on the highway and wide open roads. I was in an accident in february, wasnt drivin and got rear ended at a red light. Long story short i walked around with a broken neck for 4 months lol, had surgery and its all good now. Besides that, 3 years ago on October 24th 2009- a kid on my football team who Was a Junior and i was a freshman died in a car crash.'Was driving with a permit lost control in a bad storm, hydroplaned and died on impact. Gettin the chills right now writing about it. Im gonna be careful without a doubt. I appreciate the advice tho good looks. Back to the car lol, its got 53k miles all original paint and everything. Bumpers could use a respray and the drivers side side skirt but everything else is great. I got black headlight covers, 35% tints, and plastidipped my GT Mustang fender badges and the Pony in front

Yeah it sucks having a hard time turning to the right all the way but thats what therapys for lol. He got a full scholarship to Rutgers for football as a Junior, shame. Im lucky i found this 95 with such low mileage and all stock too lol. Plans hopefully (If I have the $$ lmao)--->
Exhaust- BBK shorties, bbk o/r H pipe, pypes hi flo cats, dumped spintech pro street mufflers
Intake- Trickflow upper and lower intake, 70mm tb, CAI
3.73 gears, rear upper and lower control arms, lowering springs, sway bars. Ill probably only do the full exhaust, gears and CAI. Not gonna dump alot of $$ in it. Might be able to get a newer car, like an 09 GT or 11' 5.0- Still wanna keep this car cause I love it

Oh for sure, my first plan is to get the exhaust done. Hopefully I'm getting the O/R H for Xmas, and with the $$ from Xmas and my birthday I'll buy the hi flo cats and the spintech mufflers. I can have a full exhaust for less than a grand how sweet is that. The O/R H was 180, Cyber Monday sales took 20 off 150 or more so I'm crossing my fingers that I'm getting it lol. Hi flo cats from AM are 209.99 and I think 230, found them on another site for 189.99. The mufflers with the new 2.5'' piping is 234.95 and the headers are 209.99. This car is way too quiet its terrible. I'm kinda embarassed to start it up for my friends when I tell them what I have lol. But once I do this exhaust, its gonna sound amazing.

I'm getting a Mac o/r h pipe, and a Mac cat back when I do my exhaust. Keeping it simple and leaving the stock headers in. I'll have to swap the stock exhaust in for inspection though, which pretty much sucks. And nothing to be embarrassed about man. You weren't the one to suggest what exhaust ford should use on a stock 5.0
