2005 56k miles, 1 owner, absolutely perfect. Not a scratch and I got it for a steal!Already has flowmasters, but probably just going to do a k&n filter and that's it. just my DD and I love it.

Enjoy

thx. the nice thing is I can drive and not look at my afr's, my oil pressure, my temp, look at my boost, lol I can get in and drive and actually listen to the shaker 1000 system that sounds great lol

[Granny]

Nice looking car.

I agree with the worry free driving.
No one seems to understand why I'm not interested in taking a 3S when I go to NG.
Can you say "Blue Link and roadside assistance"?

I'm sure you will enjoy it

[green-lantern]

I'm not a big mustang fan (probably because half the cars are mustangs here in TN) but congrats. I'm sure you will start moding it before long lol

[PearlWhiteR/T]

Pretty shocked you'd rather have this thing than your fully built vr4. But congrats none the less dude. Mustangs are easy to modify for the most part. You'll have fun with rwd.

[Sin'sVr4]

I don't understand the 3s reliability hate. My last 3s I built from a bare metal frame, and put 35,000 miles on it in 18 months at 20 psi. It never left me stranded anywhere. I launched it at least a couple times a day, and ran 100+ everyday.

[Sin'sVr4]

ya, but I had 2 fuking morons do my build originally. Then, I had to fix their mistakes over a three year period. This last build was great for 3 hard years. had some issues, but now I don't worry about it. And you sir are one of the few that haven't had ANY issues lol

[familyMAN]

Don is smarter than most of us and keeps his 3S builds simple and effective....Then he beats on them in 115* AZ weather blasting nice cold AC:D

I agree! I bought practacly a shell for 2k then rebuilt the whole thing with oem and branded aftermarket parts, now my VR4 has been my DD for the past 2yrs without any issues. Boosting 19psi on 16T turbos plus working A/C, every day is a fun day!

Congrats on your new ride, it is still a sports car, glad you didnt get a 4 door charger, hahaha.

[PearlWhiteR/T]

^Yeah but Sin was running 26psi. Then when he removed the boost limiter on the AEM that's when shit hit the fan. It's a lot of boost for anyone to run daily.. The motor was built well to hold together for as long as it did.

Lol at the charger, although an SRT-8 version would be bad ass.

Just remember to stick around the forums Sin! Mustang or not, It's nice to see some variation.

[Sin'sVr4]

I will always troll around here :) I already miss my car and I have to look at the shell daily :( Maybe one day I will come back to it

[vr4tune]

I don't have reliability problems either. Some years I will put 15,000 miles on it. I did dd her but now it's if I'm in the mood or not. I do a lot of premature maintenance and only run 15psi netting me a little over 500awhp.

[Snook]

thank KY for that one.

[IPD]

meh. it's still burgundy & it's a gen 5.0 instead of 5.5. sucks having a GT that's got barely as much kick as a gen5.5 base.
