Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've been on the forum, this post is to show you the mods i've done to my Mustang and what i plan to do in the future. (I'll be happy to hear your advice and opinions).
The first pic. its my car as i found it on August 2021 it was completely stock and it had 95.000 miles on it everything was on original state and it didn't move since 2014, so before start using the car I replaced a lot of parts just to be safe. I replaced the radiator, the water pump, the radiator hoses and flushed the coolant. I replaced spark plugs and spark plug cables, the 4 O2 sensors, alternator and battery. I did all the filters including the transmission filter and lubes. I also replaced the struts and shocks including quad shocks, The car had a dead ABS module, so I found one on Ebay and replaced it, at the same time upgraded to cobra brakes front and back with new brake lines and replaced ball joints and tie rods inners and outers.
The car passed inspection and then I replaced headlights for cobra headlights, I did the door hinges on the passenger door because they were sloppy, and I had to change the fuel tank filler neck gasket, because every time I filled it up it had a strong gas smell.
My ashtray trap door was missing so I found a 1998 cupholder and did the ashtray delete mod, Then i changed the stance in the car cutting the springs (I know, its only temporal) i use some offset bushings to fix the rack & pinion. I also did the oil pressure mod to make it really functional and not a fancy dummy light, and replaced all power steering hoses. I replaced the accessory belt with the tensioner and idle pulley.
I found a set of 1999 starfish rims and I am going to modify the originals, I am enlarging the rear rims to 10 inches. At this time i swapped the gears for a set of 3.73 ford racing gears.
The last big mod was to swap the auto trans to manual, I bought a 2003 TR3650 and did the swap, to make te speedo work I used a Dakota Digital SGI-100BT.
In the future i want to put Trick Flow heads and Cams.
The car was my daily driver since 2021 up to the summer of 2023, now is my summer car.
What do you guys think?
