the RACE car lol got a new rotor and some brakes in the rear.

the passenger side rotor had some nasty grooves in it. 50 bucks not a bad price for a cobra rotor. also got some decent vented pads

this thing stops like a ----------er, you better have your belt on cause it'll send you through the windshield. 3100lbs and big brakes and tires = stops on a dime.

some nice grooves


stock suspension


virgin rotor


some pretty decent vented pads


stupid *** fords and their sweet caliber piston, i had to buy this stupid tool, turn and push


sweet pads


the pony wheels hide everything, no wonder people think its all stock


the driver's side just got new pads, the rotor was in fine shape


motor also got a 180 degree thermo
*not pictured*

You know what you should get to be really different? Some of those chrome cobra R rims.....

What are the future plans for this thing?

mostly everybody who owns a mustang out here has those cobra rims they are played out and the stock ponies look nice that's a real sleeper i wouldn't be able to tell that it was boosted on the street if i see it from a distance.

So you can tell from looking at the outer shell of a car if it is turbo or not? :1

usually by a front mount most cars that are boosted you a big front mount and the ones who are sleepers you can't see them until you hear them or you look closely at the front bumper.

Holy hell man, did you not see the post directly above yours where I told the man he had missed the sarcasm?

That's it, just call me Mr literal now, everything I say you can take at face value. (except this)
