Most of the 370s I see around here are driven by women or old guys. Either they are too oblivious to care or are to sensible to street race.

I beat a 5.0....


















and it felt sooo good..








but it wasn't in my nismo.....










atleast not yet..



:bowrofl:

Too busy furnishing your new haus :icon17:

9.1 vs 9.7? Surely that's not a 1/4-mile, or those are both modded.

And lol it's a C6 vert.

And it was a street racing vid. Vette probably didn't know they were racing.

That's the 1/8 mile. Now that I think about it that's really crappy, because bone stock I was running like 8.4 in the 1/8 :icon17:

Bottom line is the cars are close enough for it to be a driver's race. Mustang can have a gearing advantage which would help in 0-xxx runs.

I know, I was trolololing you.

It's an impressive vid. I didn't think they were that close.

Where you at the meet that time that dbag in the C5 Vette was messing with you guys, starting at the rear of the convoy and working his way to the front?

Well I was at the front of the convoy, and I was mad that he was messing with my ducklings. :mad: :mad: :mad:

No kidding. That's what, 14's?

Sorry but I will have to echo Red_Zed's statement too. I love my Z, but anything past 6k rpm even with my Invidia's is somewhat coarse and shrieking. I know what "smooth" means, and that part about our Z's is not a good thing. I haven't pushed a 5.0 to redline yet, so I can't speak for its smoothness, but I do know our Z's are not that smooth. Heck, my Odyssey minivan is smoother...lol. You might think it's smooth, but at least be open that other cars "might" be smoother.

ahahahaha, no I missed that one!

I remember a meet where an M3 was revving on us on our way to a restaurant (I think it was Todai).

It's a pretty common complaint.

Go find another thread to troll.

The Z might not be "smooth" to red line, but boy is she fun to push to red line. :icon17:

9.7 is probably a low 14.

specially with my intaykx sucking up all that air.

specially cooler air like it's been recently. :D

Thats because guys like you and I aren't out street racing.

That's because we're never invited.

:(

:iagree:

dude, my rim money... POOF gone...
spent it on a new fridge, washer and dryer..

the stove, dish washer and microwave came with the build...

:crying:

I think this is a borderline

I'm trolling a Z thread and I own a Z????? I have none of the problems you guys complain about. When she was stock she was a little noisy coming up to redline but that changed with the intakes. Sound and being rough is two different things. Just cause it sounds rough does not mean it is rough. Ya know what Red_Zed I'll back off, I dont want my username to end up on the Mustang Forums.

:iagree:

:(

:iagree:

haus :happydance:

Too much hate.

Made up for by our forbidden love

and my youtube videos of said love.

Now for my first "On Topic" post in this thread.

So, for years, car mags have speculated that the next mustangs would have an IRS.

What say you, 5.0wners? Do you really think the next Stang strikes a blow for independence? Or do you think it remans LRA?

my wife promised me new shoes for the eagle when she finishes her nursing stuff.. cuz she will be making more then me... :bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:
I told her turbo too

:yum:

Ford had like 4 openings posted for guys with experience doing IRS...my guess would be yes :rofl2:

Hoping it gets done well...I'd pick it up. If not, we will see what's out then

Yes, IRS for next model.

It's also going to be a minimum of 250 lbs lighter. The 5.0 will be direct injected with an estimated 450 hp.

3.7L V6 might be replaced with a turbo 4 banger.

So I should hold out another year, and then I can beat you guys on the Dragon? SWEET! :roflpuke2::roflpuke2::roflpuke2:

RZ, that sounds like a pretty good indicator.

i'd heard the rumor about the 4 banger from a couple rags and from a buddy of mine who is a mechanic at a Ford dillership.

Well, we will just buy it when it comes out. :p

wtb 5.00000h

Yeah, one of the guys I used to work on cars with made it to a final round interview...don't think he got the job though....


Though maybe that's just what they want us to think :ugh2:
:rofl2:

You'll have to wait like 2-3 years though :p

so after we move into the house... and I get back from deployment.. should I trade in the Z and get a GTR, or a 5.0hh

Also heard it's not going to be a retro design and will be something new that has some elements of prior mustangs. Ford wants to sell the same version of it in all global markets.

That's a pretty significant price gap there :icon17:

I like the GT-R better, but a 5.0 would save you a ton of money that you could use to pay off your house, save, and mod the 5.0.

oh rearry?
