My 1998 Lazer Red Ford Mustang GT

[Handz]

Hey Everyone, I would like to show you guy my Mustang and tell you all a little about it and why i keep it around.

This is my 1998 Ford Mustang GT. 1998 was the last year of the SN95 Body style which ran from 94'-98'. 94'-95' GT models were powered by a 5.0 liter Pushrod V8, while the 96'-98' models came with a 4.6 SOHC V8. The SN95 Mustang was the lightest of all the Modular Mustangs which made it a great choice for me.

My model is a little special. In a few states the Ford Motor Company produced some GT models designed for racing in mind. These came with the Optional 17 inch wheels option, 3.27 Gear, Heavy Bulster Seats, and NO ABS & NO TRACTION CONTROL (This makes the car VERY fun at the Track). It is also Lazer Red, which has now become a rare color because of its expensive cost to paint. The make the car even lighter i chose to lose the stock Iron Block and Build my own using a aluminum Block from an Explore.

I have had the car for 3 years now and enjoy driving the car everyday to work and school and then taking it to the road course on the weekends and chasing down the AWD guys I Have tried my hardest to keep the car Clean and Tastefull with the pleasant factory lines while modding it to handle better with more power

Please don't post such large resolution images. Just because the forum will auto-resize isn't a good excuse to post 3/4 MB files.

Yep, No driver aids for me. This makes Drifing with the solid rear axel even MORE fun because i am lock up the rear and just slide :lol:


.....Even though it doesnt rain much in Southern California, when it does i have been really carfull......damn torque will just take the rear end out it water

I haven't actually liked any of the Mustangs after 1969 until the newest one, but I have to admit....this one looks very, very beautiful indeed. The wheels are especially fantastic.

That's a nice car. I actually love those Mustangs, not that they are much Mustang, but they look great, and goes fairly nicely.

Much nicer than the current Mustang, imho.

Very nice SN!

I'm still leery of the mod motors, but we are looking at a '99-'04 for the wife to replace her Accord...

The Mod Motors are GREAT. Its awsome how the parts from other ford cars with the Mod motor can be interchanged.

Mod Motors are the future

Spend the last few day this week doing some install. I installed my 03/04 Cobra A-Arms, UPR Bumpsteer Kit, and removed Both front ISOs to lower the front a litle bit more. Car drive alot better now. 113,000 mile suspention need some refreshing. New Ball Joints FTW and the bumpsteer kit makes me feel more confident entering turns because no little bump throws the car off anymore. went so the same location for a few shots for comparison. Also finally purchesed my Sparco Fighter. The seat holds you in so well and makes driving and foot work easier.

...here are a few pic from JAPAN!!! (Its Now Really Japan, Just Southern California)

Thats a fine looking SN you got there. I love the Cobra rims too. They really bring out the car. Now all you need is one of the Saleen spoilers installed out back and I'll come out there and steal it.
