Default New here

So i have been browsing the forums for months now, and i waited untill now to join. Fresh out of the hospital, and mighty board!

anyways, i have a 03 gt, bolt ons, 12psi p1sc, 4.10s and some other odds and ends. Got it dynoed on a mustang dyno about 4 months ago and made 387whp and 380tq. I had a 04 srt4 for about a year, it was a very fun car and i miss it, but the wheel hop drove me crazy and nothing would solve it. I'm ASE certified in Electrical, Engine Performance, Brakes and Steering and Suspension. I race Shifter karts with my father and i am attending CCBC in the fall for Gm

Damn 17, they were probably just jealous, as I am. I'm 18 and all I have to show is a slow V6. I wouldn't mind a procharged GT

Its all in what you love man, this is my future. Lots of people thought i was irresponsible and what have you. But i don't drink, don't do drugs and really don't get into any trouble. I turn wrenches and ride motorcycles and thats better than any drug i know of

Modded the hell out of it. Pretty much i had a choice of making the fwd work and doing something with the tranny that couldn't handle the power or sell the car and find something new. I got 15,000 for the srt, and bought the mustang the same day!

That's true, you seem pretty level headed for a 17 year old, you'll fit in fine. Get some more pics of that GT.

I'd say black FR500s...but I'm a little biased, maybe.

Oh **** I forgot about the chin spoiler.

I'm going to assume you will be putting the correct wheel style (FR500s) on your next mustang, right vsix? YES.

thanks haha yeah seems everyone has the chin spoiler! im thinking about a new bumper. and i really am confused on the wheels. I was going to go for the whole grey and black theme. But chrome rims on a darker car looks so good damnit!

I don't know...it may have some rims already that you may/may not approve of just going to have to wait and see what I conjure up.

Yeah its where i have been shopping. Just wanted to check out some other options.
Black S Style Wheel 94-04 (18x10) in the rear

Black S Style Wheel 94-04 (18x9) in the front


That was the original idea.

I wouldn't do black wheels w/o a lip on a dark car, it'd look like you have donuts. Chrome saleens wouldn't look bad, or a black wheel with a lip.
