Thanks everyone! I'm finally happy with how the car looks stance wise. The wheels are ok for now, but they won't stay for very long. I still wish I had my Welds. They are my favorites on the car. I'm going to get Fiske wheels eventually.

Engine wise... meh. It serves its purpose, sounds ok, and runs 100% perfect so I kinda have a hard time messing with it. I'll just be doing it to please other people because I'm 100% happy with my 190RWHP or however much it would make lol. I don't care about going fast. If I do anything it will either get a Vortech that I'm already supposed to be buying when the owner decides to sell it, or an LS swap (what I REALLY want to do). Gotta do something to piss people off!


Your car with LS swap = :thumbsup:

Like I have said 1000 times I would LS swap a lawnmower. I love SN95 Mustangs at heart but a sn95 with LS swap is just pure sex!

Thank you! I mean I love the SN body style, but let's face it... 2 valves suck power wise and 4 valves are too expensive to build IMO. Why not take a good looking body like the SN and mate it with arguably the best v8 engine ever produced?

On another note, if I could find a way, I'd 2JZ swap it in a heartbeat. I just don't have the fab or wiring skills to pull that off.

Thanks Tony! I wouldn't raise it if it weren't for the God awful sound when I hit a bump! It sounds like something really important is breaking lol. It may be the coilovers settling, I really hope it is. Because I love the front stance! I'll slam the rear eventually but just not right now...

I was with you until the 2JZ swap lol!! Really though you couldnt have put it better, my thoughts exactly. I have a H/C/I LS2 going into my 94 which is still in pieces. I will make around 500rwhp all motor and of course with a little sneeze around 700hp, with under 10K invested, try that with anything else

If I saw a Mustang drive by sounding like a Toyota I would :deeplist:

It would be Tokyo Drift with that southern guy all over again...

I'm just wondering how much trouble I'll have with the wiring. I know the mod motor k members will work with some different mounts, but I'm going to be keeping A/C and PS or I won't do the swap. I'm going to be going for a 100% clean and factory looking swap.

Its not bad at all, I am using a truck 4.8/5.3/6.0 front accessory drive, I will have A/C, Power Steering, ect. So many people are swapping these all the time, doing it right and still looking almost factory is very common now with LS swaps. I am running a Tubular K Member with LS mounts already set.

And the wiring harness kits are a breeze, pretty straight forward.

Welp looks like I will start my research and start accumulating parts. I'll just get a 5.3. I'm going to start calling around for a complete engine tomorrow.

Find them all day for $600-$800 full complete around 60,000-150,000 miles

Also let me point out dont be shy with a 4.8L, they make around the same HP and you can find them all around, and they rev like a stick of dynamite. Also they are 290ci and produce 270 horsepower to 295 horsepower and 285·tq to 305 tq, depending on the model year and application.

That's low! Love it! If you lived where I do you would hate your life. I'm pretty sure all of Oklahoma's rodes are made from pot hole remnants. Haha

Do a 2JZ swap! I know i'll be flamed for it but you'd probably be the first person ever to swap a 2JZ in a Mustang.. Totally unique and badass. On the other hand a LS swap would be really cool too

There's so many better engines out there you could swap instead of a rice burner engine that makes less power than a npi motor stock... for example you could do a sbf, sbc, 4v they're not that expensive to work on, or a coyote swap ( you would probably do less fabrication with this motor and still would be just as expensive to make this kind of power from a 2jz. Next time I hear someone want to put a rice burner engine in a mustang I swear I'm going to sell my car and buys camaro.
