Re: MustangChris' Mustang GT

I think you need more chrome under the hood. It adds to your horsepower.

j/k Nice pics. We have the same color BUT, your paint looks good. Mine is faded as hell...

thats the plan. ... its aluminum, so if it doesnt run the way i like it, i can recycle it..... im hoping getting rid of the crank and junk will help with the weight-to-power ratio that ricers always talk about. lol.

Hey, I have an extra chrome driveshaft laying around. If it don't work, try putting one of those turbo whistles in your muffler. Don't forget to add 50 stickers, they add 10hp per sq cm. lol

i agree they are too small, but they are stock size... if I would have bought them, they would be 18s, not 16s. and the rears would be 300s+ not 225. lol. but the previous owner put them on, not me...

I've kept my eyes open since day #1 looking for the same wheels in a larger size, but i cant even find evidence that these wheels were even produced... lol.

I'm leaning toward 17s/18s custom when my finances allow it.

anyone seen these wheels before? they are indeed centerline, but i cant find them anywhere.. dono what model/style they are called, cant find them online anywhere.

any help would be appriciated. :)
