I'm planning on a supercharger and a suspension upgrade. The track season kicks off in May here in Germany so I got lots of time to get it done.

This year I'm working on suspension (MM sfc's are first on the list, then probably lca's), but the major long term plan is that when the car is paid off in 09, new crate motor (undecided) and twin turbo's.

I'm hoping by the end of winter to have a new Lunati cam, and Art Carr torque converter installed. Maybe after that ( if my wife doesn't kick my A$$ ) a new NX direct port nitrous kit. Paint and body are for next winter.

New suspension...
I'm going to FINALLY lay into a whole new suspension and brakes on my '91 LX. Maybe I can post some pics of the progress. It's quite a list too. AJE K member, D&D A-Arms and coil-overs (front & rear) Lakewood 70/30 struts, SN95 spinddles, Cobra calipers (front & rear) and black 5 lug 17x9 Bullitt wheels on 275/40/17 Nitto DRs, to name a few...

If all goes right at tax time I will be adding the new Wipple to my car along with suspension mods. Just love that whine!

Black93GT,
Just so you know,
I bought my black carpet at an auto salvage. It came out of a 2001 V6 Stang and it dropped right in to my '91LX. The mounting holes for the seats and belts lined up nicely. I only needed to make a 2 inch cut for the center arm pad. You don't even see it as it's under said pad. There's also a section in the rear that you may want to trim as it's slightly longer than the Fox. I just tucked mine under the seat and it looks fine.
Oh, if you're wondering if it's worth it? It is! I paid 10 bucks for mine vs. $110 for a new one!!
Good luck!

I am planning on a larger supercharger. Probably going with Votech running about 14 lbs. Also ditching the gt40 heads for a set of AFRs. I bought a wrecked 91 for the Tremec trans and wheels, so as soon as I unload some parts off of it, I will put the money right back into my ride.  |

Man! You guys are super smart when it comes to cars! I will admit, I am dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to engines...especially modifying mechanical stuff! I have an 06' Mustang GT that I want to modify the body. Not really wanting to do an awful lot of stuff. Just painting the racing stripes on it, getting some chrome 18" wheels, etc...I haven't decided on putting on a sportier looking hood though. Would I have to buy a brand new hood if I wanted a hood scope or could I get someone to modify the existing one? Also, how much does it cost for the racing stripes?
Here's my car. I love it to death, but it probably is kind of plain compared to what you guys have been a witness to.
I would love to put a supercharger on it, but heck..I'm not going to be racing it (except out on the streets..lol) and I think a 300 horse power V8 is more than enough for the streets. But heck, if someone offered to give me a supercharger, I definitely wouldn't turn it down!  |
