    You get that all sorted out? I am finally feeling completely relieved. It took almost two years of rebuilding to get back to an even better spot than I was in 2005, but now it is paying off big. Glad I waited. Now: More vacations!

    Red is nice on a car but not what I am going for. I saw that one on their website. I want a white, silver, or that dark grey color. I am also going to wait a few more months probably.

    This.

    Hit me up if you would like to check out the ride in a s-197 with coilovers.

    I've never used Pandora so I have no idea, but can you stream it Bluetooth and use the steering wheel controls? I can with the Android Media Player. I use StreamFurious for "radio" stations, but they have no next/previous feature even on the phone app, so of course the steering wheel does not do jack shit.

    I don't know if the Pro-Kit will deliver the aesthetics I want. I've had Sportlines a couple of times, but I was a lot younger and hadn't thrown my back out 18 times yet. The last set was right after I started having problems though. With the rest of the suspension updated out of the fox era it might not be so bad. It would probably still ride better that my 99 with stock springs and new shocks and struts and tires.

    Anytime.

    The stock GT suspension is absolute trash unless you put slicks on it and point it in a straight line. It's way too soft and tall, with no damping.

    I'm about 90% sure you'll end up with an Eibach Pro-Kit and Koni STR.Ts. Better get ready to spend the cash. It's a really nice combination that keeps a decent ride. You probably won't like my Sportlines and Tokicos. They're a little harsh over washboard roads.

    I need to actually ride in your car, Danny. This thing is a Cadillac compared to the 99. Laid out some elevenses in my parking lot at lunch since my guys wanted a show. it's like 1998 all over again. DM-"Why does the parking lot of this store always look like a landing strip?"

    From everything I've heard, the Sync on Mustangs sucks hairy balls. Maybe there's an issue with road / background noise in general, but I know for sure that changing the exhaust in any way completely wipes it out.

    Those wheels are EuroTek. Doug has them on his C/S.

    Euro.Tek 19x8.5 / 19x9.5
    Bolt Pattern 5X114.3 mm
    Offset 35 mm Front , 40mm Rear
    Hub Bore Size: 73.1 mm
    Nankang NS-II Ultra Sport Tires 235/35/19
    Nankang NS-II Ultra Sport Tires 275/30/19

    They look fuckin goood.


    What springs are on that car? That is the perfect I will be looking for, when I get mine

    When it works, it's great. When it shows the Bluetooth symbol and the voice says "no connection available, please wait while...." And then nothing works, it's a PITA.
