Better, Cayuga speedway dragstrip. It was a blast and i made a few passes. Nothing crazy, my best was a (sad) 16.04 at 87.6mph. But i beat my friends truck every time so that was a win for me. 

 

Also the announcer now knows me as "Norbert The NARC" because cop car.

I think i gotta just lose weight :P but yeah it's got a great mid range lunge but not off the line, i'm looking at buying a 78 camaro (since the CHP used them) to build, paint it up like a cop car and such. The vic's a daily, plus it's didn't break so i'm happy. I blame the 3:27 rear end.

Looking to install a limited slip differential in my car to get power down to both rear wheels. I know nothing about this though, so would like some help. Exactly what needs to be replaced on a 3.8L V6 Mustang?

 

I have a 7.5 rear end in my car.

The easy way? Go pull the whole rear axle out of a junk car and put it in yours, then sell your rear axle.

The complicated way that takes tools you probably don't have? Take off the rear diff cover and drain it, take off the wheels and brakes, take out the axles, then you can now wrestle the shit outta it trying to get it outta there, buy an expensive new diff and install kit and have at it.

100,000 is more than i'd spend on any car. 


EDIT:

 

I thought somewhere i read that the new tesla was gonna be around 40k... i was off by exactly that much. its 80k

that car looks a lot better than his current car, though...

it depends on the mileage difference though to know if it's a good idea...

My car has 92k, and while the Mach 1 is certainly better, my car is cleaner than most New Edge Mustangs I see.

Still looking around for a V8, found one up in Connecticut.

Thoughts?

 

As much as I want a GT (or other editions such as Mach 1's) I find it very hard to give up my car, for the fact I love the New Edge body style and my car is in great condition, and it's my first car.
