    None yet, but I'm hoping to make a deal with Street 591 on his SVE series 1 wheels but thats probably not gonna happen. I don't have enough $$ so it will probably be black 10th anniversary wheels with polished lip, staggered.

    For me:

    -clutch time for the cobra at 67k, new clutch, cable, steeda adjuster and quadrant
    -while its out the long tubes that are collecting dust in the garage are going on.
    -just got the front bumper redone while having the front license plate holes removed - stupid maryland car -
    -get a tune, its time with no cats, 3.73's, long tubes, egr delete, etc, dash looks like a christmas tree
    -new tires for the 03 cobra's I have, going with unshaved toyo ra1's so i can run at the track and the street with no changes
    -inner tie rods/alignment again

    -Do all this then comtemplate selling the car like I always do

    I will be installing a Spec 3+ clutch in my 86 to fix the slipping issues on the spray.

    The 14 GT will be getting a little more. I have a set of BOSS side pipes for it. I also have a set of BMR LCA's and LCA relocation brackets and a BMR upper bracket. Haven't bought a UCA yet.

    Trans rebuild here--finally let go at the end of last season. May do a new intercooler setup, but not 100% on that yet. Sounds like a lot of folks here have some nice builds going.

    Thank you Ron! It was 80 bucks shipped. Couldn't beat it. Anyone interested message me and I'll put you in touch with him. I know he makes them for the new edge and 05-09 Mustangs. Don't know about the newer s197s. I know he makes one with the SVT logo for the new edge as well.

    I'm going to attempt to do some really small mods to the car like the MGW and maybe some tint.. The wedding has me tapped out for the year, plus we're looking at buying a house, so the Mustang has to take a back seat for another year :\

    Already had the turbo Focus together and back apart again due to a main seal leak and needing to adjust valve tappet clearances. Both fixed and getting it back together now. 400 wrong-wheel horsepower soon.

    Also picked up some front and rear leather Recaro seats and braided brake lines.

    I had some big plans but came across a deal on a Mobile Home right before the holidays/new year. So I may do some small mods/upgrades, will see how my funds are.

    That's the trouble with more than doubling the power of a V6. I felt like every time I took it out something new would break. It got old real fast and I lost interest.


    Nothing exciting planned for the WRX, just replace the valve cover gaskets. One of these days I'll start putting the 95 GT back together. Probably not until after we build a deck this summer though.

    Contact terry reeves at beefcake racing for he ID injectors. There's no price difference between 725 and 1000. So get the 1000s.

    Installed Kooks axle backs today. Sounds incredible, pretty tame at idle. Gotta get the resonators cut out or spring for OAPs.
