What Mustang Mods Are You Planning for 2018?

[Minaccia]

So now that Christmas is out of he way we can get back to spending our cash on our Mustangs, what do you have planned for your Street Machine this coming year?

My mod list for 2018:

~ BMR Anti Roll Bar
~ Shocks & Struts
~ SVE black drag wheels for the rear 15x10
~ M/T Drag Radials 275/60/15
~ JMS Launch Control
~ Circle D Torque Converter and
~ Re-tune the transmission for the new converter.

So far

- fresh trans
- upgrade input shaft
- new FMS alum flywheel
- McLeod dual disc clutch
- replace connectors with Steeda full length
- fixed seat for track days
- still kicking around the idea of doing an alum block engine with cams + maybe bigger blower but having trouble justifying a fresh mill when car is still under 60k and running fine. Given age of the driver, may be coming up on time for an update in that department though.

If all goes well...

T56 swap
FRPP Ported PI heads
More aggressive cams
New fuel system (lines and pump)
Bbk shorty headers

- New windshield
- MM panhard bar
- Drive it

[ZR]

An MM PH bar is gonna blow yer mind.

That's what I keep hearing.. it's more of a necessity since one of my tires is rubbing. Pretty sure rolling my fenders would damage my paint.

[ZR]

One trip round the block after you have one...........you'll wish you'd done it sooner.

Sorta like your brake upgrade but even better.

[True Blue]

The Coupe:
-Respray all the trim and moldings.
-Buff and polish the paint.
-Strip and respray the factory 10 holes
-Finish detailing the engine bay.
-Add missing factory pinstripe.
-Hopefully get around to installing 3.55 gears.

The Bullitt:
-Drive the damn thing more!

LOL

Start with the maintenance items, and go from there.
Ewald Performance has a sale on G-Loc brake pads, so thinking of picking up some of those.

Stuff sitting on the shelf that NEEDS to get on the car

325 front springs
front hubs
front rotors
rebuild front calipers
solid steering rack bushings


Things I need

Track pads
track tires


Stuff sitting on the shelf that would be nice to get on the car.....too long to list

Sorta like your brake upgrade but even better.

Even for a budget brake upgrade, its 100x better over stock. Cobra fronts will happen when I need to replace the rotors.

Would you recommend doing the rear upper control arms at the same time as the PH bar? Just doesn't make sense to try and replace the stock bushings.

I have no idea where to start but one of the main highlights would be the New Hellion 6466 Twin Turbo Kit for the 2015 GT :)

[FoxRod]

Contemplating ordering today...

And toss in a torque arm. :stickpoke:

[Hutch]

Buy a mustang. I need to start there first!

[ZR]

FMS or '99 up GT uppers are best option (be sure to order new bolts as well).

[Ray721]

Install Kooks 1"-7/8" Long Tube Headers.
Install Kooks 3" Catted X Pipe
Install MGW Race Spec Shifter
Install BOSS Intake Manifold
Install GT500 Complete Rear Bumper
Get Tuned for new Mods

I'd also like to get at least two more Track Pack wheels and mount a set of 285/35/19 Mickey Thompson ET Street S/S tires. I'd also like to get some small hubcentric spacers to get the stock wheels a little closer to the fenders.

Would also like to order some Maximum Motorsports Stuff:
MM Lowering Springs
MM Koni Adjustable Shocks/Struts
MM CC Plates
MM Front Sway Bar
MM Adj Panhard Bar
MM Extreme Duty LCA's
MM LCA Brackets
MM Bumpstops
MM Bumpsteer Kit
MM K-Member (Maybe)

[ZR]

Wowzers.

Oh yeah!! Install my Cobra brakes that have been on the shelf for a few years now

[Quicksilver]

I took my 17 GT without an aftermarket exhaust system thinking that I'm a senior citizen now and would rather have a quiet car.
NO!! The car drives fine, lots of power, but there just doesn't seem to be any passion. Some Magnaflows in the spring, for sure!
I also have a set of staggered 19" rims left over from my '14. The clearcoat got compromised from sitting in the barn so I'll have them refurbished and get some good rubber.
Nothing else, really for this car. It's just an interim until I order a 19 the way
I want it.
I wouldn't classify this a a "Mod" , but We will also probably try to get my son's 89 coupe back on the road. We've had it for 14 years. It's been sitting for 6 seasons, out of the last 7.
Some of you may recall: ZR did a major conversion on that car about 11 years ago: it went from a 4 cylinder with a slushbox to a 302 5-speed, with shocks, springs, subframe connectors, k-member, strut tower brace, 17" wheels, and 2002 GT 4-wheel brakes. It needs a paint job, and some TLC to get it back on the road, so we'll see.

Rick, get ready!

[Armen]

I'd like to get the upgraded Mishimoto (or the new C&R Racing) 6R80 transmission cooler and the Performance Automatic Deep Transmission Pan Kit.

[Das 5.0]

Cobra front and rear brake upgrade (just had calipers freshly rebuilt and powder coated)
New carpet install (just showed up before Xmas)
Interior Dynomat install
Coil-overs for front and rear
Pan hard bar (Rick yes/no?)


Then drive the snot out of it !!!!!!

[ZR]

^ Hell yes.

[WidowrRacing]

My plan for the 88GT is to install the new slicks and run low 11s.
Other goal is 11.9 or faster N/A for the 02 Z28.

[Minaccia]

Bring the 88GT to a Sparta rental next time.

[HyperGT]

That’s the plan.

[Scrape]

No more Mustang so no mods for now.

First sunny day with the top down + 5.0 thundering out the tail pipes............won't be able to pry it from your fingers.

[Bksrt8]

When it gets a little warmer im gonna rip out the seats and carpet and figure out my best course of action for the floor. Either replace the sides or just put in a whole new floor. Then im gonna fix the paint.....probably just gonna do the hood roof and trunk lid in satin black. At some point im gonna look into why it wont run worth a shit too....its got 30lb injectors and its over fueling....so perhaps a MAF issue or something. Timing is out too. After that ill probably take it to Dasilva for the Sick kids dyno days and definately going to Shannonville to race a guy i work with

[Stephen06GT]

Need list:
New shoes. Type and size to be determined

Want list:
Dynomat or some other brand of sound absorbing material
New front bumper cover and paint
Install front chin spoiler.
Clean and detail and paint correction.
