this is the new car. had it for 2.5 weeks. I absolutely hate the stock wheels, so those have been situated. already have a stack of mods sitting waiting to be installed all at once:
Lowering springs
RSB
Front fog and headlight tint
CS Front Fascia
20x10 20x8.5 wheels coming this Tuesday!
Roush Sideskirt lip
Tinted the day after i bought it
Next up is powerpack stage 1, which should put me over 400whp

Washed the Z today, had to go to a DIY car wash since my association cut off the outside water for the winter and decided not to let anyone know they were going to do it.

I also don't have a lot done to the car at the moment, because I am watching my money. Just a rear muffler delete for now. Saving for other things though any suggestions?

So....I've been stalling since last November to get a new trans or Clutch and flywheel. Noticed significant power loss and slippage of my Z so I started driving it only on weekends. UGH!Anyways I'm hearing "howling" now that its colder, sounds like it might be the flywheel. So looks like I need a new Clutch+flywheel or transmission. 2 for ya'll Questions!
A. Any good shops with ok pricing and quality?
B. Do you guys think its the transmission or the clutch&flywheel? (
FML I SHOULD JUST DO A RB26 swap while I'm at it! Time for it to sleep.

Nice. That new sink strainer is really going to help from food not clogging your drains.
Oh the wheels will look good to on the mustang. But they're going to be a pita to clean lol

Just happend to be looking up the marketplace for the Osiris Cable and a wideband and decided to check up. No havent got the tune yet cuz DB is saying i gota buy there Accessport in order for them to tune it and another 150 an hr for dyno, But Im on a budget right now cuz bought a home about a year ago gutted everything except the sheetrock and plywood and renovating and updating everything out of my pocket slowly to avoid any credit or debt. About $35k in already and got another $10-15k till complete. Doing the work myself since i work as a Home Remodeler. So im checking up on here for the Osiris, Wideband and Fuel Rail for a doog deal cuz i wana go up too 100 shot but dont wana risk leaning out.
