I vote for the D-Specs and LCAs if you have the extra money Jon.

What's your take? Again its not for sure on the extra mod money but a possibility.
D-Specs w/remote adjusters! And I don't even have them installed yet!
btw, $505 shipped on the GB.

I kinda like the GT spoiler.

+1 on LCA's too if you got the change. The stock stamped ones just look fugly.

Can't go wrong w/Tokicos. LCA are a good upgrade. I think for a DD billet LCAs are a little over the top they just get too dirty(mine do).

They don't have to be the blingage kind, the (BMR) Hammertone grey won't show the dirt and way stronger than the OEM ones.

Tough question. I see it as a thread which talks about life with a Mustang. I guess that sums it up for me atleast.

Reporting back

Love the new lowered stance (thanks Phil for the steeda's )

I need more ride time with the D-specs... I have them set at 4 turns rear, 3 turns front. A little stiff. I'm going to try 5 all around and check threads to see what most people go with. Didn't even have to adjust the panhard bar I will need it at some point though Very happy with the mods. More responsive than stock... that's for sure.

Now, we have to wait on Leo's feedback.

That's all I have for now.

Have to thank George, Bill, Brian, and Leo for all the help. Thanks again guys All in all. A great day.

Just a thread to talk about anything mustang related....although sometimes we venture to things slightly off-topic.

It's kinda of like a daily (actually, hourly for most of us) journal into what's going on with us & our cars

Hey guys I just ordered Rotorpros rotors and pads....


Also weighed the car today, with me, 1/4 tank of gas, and complete audio system including a subwoofer box with 12" Rockford subs and two amplifiers, it weighs 3880 lbs. This is with my 18" chrome DD wheels and Saleen blower, etc. I also got a 10% off code for M&H tires on modfords........ guess what I'll be doing in about 2 weeks??
