Post Your Latest Mustang Related Purchase
 
I've always used to seeing one of these threads on other forums I belong to, so I figured I would start it here. Goal is just to keep everyone in the loop of what mods we will be working on through what we buy for our babies.

Most of this stuff I got around Christmas time due to sales and whatever.

DSS Aluminum Driveshaft: Awaiting arrival
BMR Relocation Brackets: Came in today
Roush Boost-A-Pump: Awaiting arrival

Can't wait for the tracks and road courses to open up again!

Just ordered a set of chamfer drilled and slotted rotors from brakeperformance.com. For $260 it's worth seeing how they compared and hold up to beginner track days and AutoX.

Other than that, I have a few things sitting in the garage waiting to be installed.

I should've gotten a Boss rear diffuser, but I decided brakes should be done since I'm approaching 36k on the stockers, and I don't know if I trust them to hold up to my first track day.

Engine build, currently looking for some valve covers.

Bought a Saleen grille for a '10-'12 car, I don't even own a Mustang yet and am at least 6 months from buying one! I think I might have a problem.

Also trying to figure out how to get an emblem made for it in Grabber Blue that won't cost an arm and a leg.

3rd brake light pulser and "coyote" sticker for 3rd brake light. Pretty neat little mod for under $100. Took all of 18 seconds to install the pulser.

I'm far from baller! lol! Most of those were gifts. The house and kiddo on the way keeps me pretty broke.

Why?!?! Thats just what I want is to sit behind someone at night with their brake light pulsing in my face. It's bad enough with a small motorcycle doing it but I understand needing them there, they are easy to miss sometimes. But if someone misses a Race Red Mustang, that flasher isn't going to help you.

This is actually a safety option that is going into a lot of new cars.

hotwheelz69 01-04-2014 12:37 AM

Airaid cai and sct tuner. Love the difference in this thing. Wakes the auto up!!

I could imagine that being annoying. The one for this car blinks 4 times in 1 second then stops and doesn't work again for 20 seconds. It's pretty reasonable. Also, did you just ask someone WHY they did a mod to their car? That might be the dumbest question I've read on one of these forums.

Wait you mean the entire purpose of a forum is to see other peoples mods and decide if that's something you would like to do to your car or not? Huh must be stupid. I didn't know anything about them but was hoping it was maybe the first 3 seconds you hit the brakes or something. But having it happen every 20 seconds sitting at a stoplight I think would bother me. No need to get all butthurt because I asked a question.

A little out of context I'd say. Also dramatic. Are you a female?

my95z28 01-04-2014 02:38 PM

Wouldn't say I'm the one being dramatic when you keep throwing out the personal insults there chief. I'm merely trying to have a conversation about mods over here.

If a moderator wants to pull these posts to clean up the thread and keep it on track instead of derailed like where its going, perfectly fine by me.

kanetrain 01-04-2014 03:00 PM

Ohh speaking of brake lights, does anyone know how to make the brake lights do what the blinkers do when you hit the pedal? I saw a couple year older, maybe '08ish, Mustang the other day that had them and they look awesome.

Got this puppy in today which I'm sure my ProCharger will be happy about. Also scheduled a dyno tuning session with Jeff Smith now that CTP opened up there doors again this week. Excited to see the results next Thursday!

Also, last night my car was featured on Steeda's Facebook and Google+ sites. I thought that was very cool to spot!
