Imagine if he found out it was built and tuned by some hack in his backyard....

Marco/stripes doing cooler cat injectors so hopefully around 300rwkw, anymore than that and I'll be stoked What I really want though is to run an 11s quarter mile, that would make me happy In the end I decided to go with monsta torque, the stories of the other tuners dishonesty played on my mind. Also monsta is $300 cheaper Doing our backyard up as well which is gonna cost sh*tloads so can't just go all out at the moment unfortunately. Well I could.. But I wouldn't get laid again until 2016

Hi everyone, Yesterday I posted that I am a happy camper and need a favour, As many of you know I do surf life saving and at my club I am an Age Manager, Club Photography and Web/Social Media Coordinator.

Doing this made me feel good today [emoji1] http://youtu.be/eUxXG9lBMvs

^^^ I do love the noise though 'cause massive poser

What do you expect he's just gonna do all that first time..

Wow I'm married. That would be regular sex for me.

just saw on you tube. its cool and all, but I cant say I like it. so obviously very rehearsed- it just doesnt have that raw feel to it. too hollywood style- the multiple black lines on the road everywhere he goes is a dead givaway that its scripted. of course it needs to be or he wouldnt get approvals to do any of this stuff. I just reckon it would be more impressive out in the sticks somewhere, like an abandoned old ghost town, where he can go nuts and get that on tape. after 2 mins its just the same thing over and over. got quite bored tbh. each incarnation of this franchise has not gotten better..

Visit my build site www.boostedford.com where I'm putting a turbo 6 and ZF into a 1966 Mustang. Under table of contents page go to Ecu/wiring. This explains what I did to get it running with contacts of who I used. Rob

Fiiiinally getting my car booked in for a tune. Bring on 29th December!!!! Let's just hope it's not 40 degrees that day ...

Dude please never say your wrong to a woman Stand tall !! Hahahaha

One of the most iconic performance Mustang nameplates of all time is returning, Ford confirmed today with the reveal of the all-new Shelby® GT350 Mustang. The original Shelby GT350 introduced in 1965 established Mustang’s performance credentials. The all-new Shelby GT350 Mustang, featuring the most powerful naturally aspirated Ford production engine ever, is a world-class performance vehicle, designed to tackle the planet’s most challenging roads – an all-day track car that’s also street legal. The new GT350 builds on Carroll Shelby’s original idea – transforming a great every-day car into a dominant road racer – by taking advantage of a dramatically improved sixth-generation Mustang to create a truly special driving experience. Driving enthusiasts behind the wheel of a Shelby GT350 can expect to be treated to the most balanced, nimble and exhilarating production Mustang yet. Ford engineers took an innovative approach with GT350. Rather than develop individual systems to perform well independently, every component and shape is optimized to work in concert; balance is the key. While paying rigorous attention to detail, the team pushed the envelope with cutting-edge materials and technologies. “When we started working on this car, we wanted to build the best possible Mustang for the places we most love to drive – challenging back roads with a variety of corners and elevation changes – and the track on weekends,” said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development. “Every change we made to this car was driven by the functional requirements of a powerful, responsive powerplant – nimble, precise handling and massive stopping power.” Track-tuned driveline Early in development of the GT350, it was decided a high-revving, naturally aspirated V8 engine would best suit a track-focused Mustang. “The final product is essentially an all-new powerplant unique to GT350 – and one that takes true advantage of the new chassis dynamics of the Mustang platform,” said Jamal Hameedi, chief engineer, Ford Global Performance Vehicles. The new 5.2-liter engine is the first-ever production V8 from Ford with a flat-plane crankshaft, an architecture typically found only in racing applications or exotic European sports cars. Unlike a traditional V8, where the connecting rods are attached to the crankshaft at 90-degree intervals, this design evenly spaces all crank pins at 180-degree intervals. The 180-degree, flat-plane layout permits a cylinder firing order that alternates between cylinder banks, reducing the overlap of exhaust pressure pulses. When combined with cylinder-head and valvetrain advancements, this permits better cylinder breathing, further extending the performance envelope of the V8. The result is the most powerful naturally aspirated production Ford engine ever, at more than 500 horsepower, with a torque peak above 400 lb.-ft. The track capability is enhanced by the output characteristics of the engine – the 5.2-liter V8 features an exceptionally broad torque curve. Combined with its high-revving ability, the flat-plane 5.2-liter V8 gives drivers an enormous amount of performance and flexibility within each gear of the lightweight six-speed manual transmission. A standard Ford-tuned Torsen limited-slip differential optimizes cornering grip and straight-line traction. “Make no mistake, this is an American interpretation of a flat-plane crankshaft V8, and the 5.2-liter produces a distinctive, throaty howl from its four exhaust tips,” said Hameedi. Balanced dynamics The new Mustang platform is the strongest in the history of the brand, with torsional stiffness increased 28 percent over the previous model. That stiff structure ensures the suspension geometry remains consistent, even under hard driving on back roads and tracks. Front stiffness is further improved on GT350 with a cutting-edge injection-molded carbon fiber composite grille opening and optional lightweight tower-to-tower brace. The front track has been increased while spring rates and bushings have been recalibrated all around, with ride height reduced compared to Mustang GT. For optimum handling, the wheels need to respond quickly to the contours of the road and driver input. Reducing unsprung mass is key to improving that response, but a balance must be struck between taking mass out of a suspension and delivering truly capable braking performance. Due to the significant speeds the car can develop, GT350 features the most track-credible brake system ever offered on a Ford vehicle in terms of absolute stopping power, fade resistance and brake pedal feel. The brakes are two-piece cross-drilled iron discs mounted to aluminum hats. At the front are massive 394-millimeter rotors clamped by Brembo six-piston fixed calipers with integrated caliper bridges, while 380-millimeter rotors at the rear utilize four-piston calipers. GT350 makes use of extra-stiff 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels – 10.5 inches wide in front, 11.0 inches in the rear – clad in state-of-the-art Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires with GT350-specific sidewall construction, tread face and compound. The custom tires are designed to deliver maximum grip on the road or at the track. Ultra-quick responsiveness to changing conditions is provided by the first-ever Ford application of continuously controlled MagneRide dampers. The dampers are filled with a hydraulic fluid impregnated with iron particles; when an electric current is passed through the fluid, a near-instant adjustment of the suspension performance can be made. With wheel position sensors monitoring motion thousands of times per second combined with other vehicle data, changes can be made to each corner independently every 10 milliseconds for optimum handling performance. This is a system designed not just to make the car handle better but to instill greater confidence in even the best driver. Obsession to detail “Everything we changed on GT350 is purely functional-driven design, with the goal of improving the overall performance of the car,” said Chris Svensson, Ford design director, The Americas. “We optimized the aero shape of the car, and then fine-tuned what was left to increase downforce and cooling airflow.” All bodywork from the windshield forward is unique to this high-performance model and up to two inches lower than Mustang GT. The new aluminum hood has been lowered and sloped, compared to the base Mustang, tightly wrapped around the engine for the smallest possible aerodynamic signature. Front and rear aero elements have been balanced to work together on the track. The fascia has been resculpted to provide the aggressive lower front splitter with maximum pressure and a ducted belly pan delivers significant downforce. The hood outlet acts as a heat extractor while also reducing underhood lift at high speed. At the rear, much of the engineering was focused on creating an aggressive functional diffuser doing double duty to increase downforce and provide cooling air to the optional differential cooler, and a subtle lip spoiler across the trailing edge of the decklid increases downforce without adding excess drag. The athletic stance of the all-new Mustang is further accentuated with recontoured aluminum front fenders to accommodate the wider front track and wider wheel arches. Front fender vents work with vented inner fenders to draw out turbulent air in the wheel wells and smoothly direct it down the side of the car. The forward-angled grille is designed with individual openings to draw air through the radiator, high-pressure engine air intake, cooling ducts for the front brakes and, optional with the Track Pack, an engine oil cooler and a transmission cooler. Focus-driven cockpit changes Like everything else about GT350, the interior has been optimized for driving, beginning with the specially designed Recaro sport seats with a unique cloth. Hundreds of hours and many prototypes went into a seat that is both comfortable in daily driving and capable on the track. A flat-bottom steering wheel makes it easier for the driver to get in and out, and is more ergonomic on the racetrack. Gauges are upgraded to reflect the enormous performance capability of the car. Chrome and bright finishes have been reduced or eliminated to prevent sun glare that may distract the driver. The advanced technology inherent to Mustang has been deployed for duty in the Shelby GT350. An all-new integrated driver control system allows selection of five unique modes that tailor ABS, stability control, traction control, steering effort, throttle mapping, MagneRide tuning and exhaust settings, depending on driver preference, to achieve maximum performance. Drivers are invited to test them all. Drivers interested in comfort, convenience and entertainment upgrades may select the Tech Pack, which includes power, leather-trimmed seats; Shaker Audio; 8-inch MyFord Touch® LCD touch screen; and dual zone electronic temperature control, to name a few features. “We took the best Ford Mustang yet and massaged every aspect of the car that affects the performance driving experience,” said Hameedi. “We tested endlessly on the most challenging roads and tracks in the world, and we believe serious drivers will love the Shelby GT350 Mustang.” In the words of the great Ron Burgandy..."I'm very aroused!"

Car was light weight. No water in overflow.

Nawwwwww Wmmfg Going out for dinner to tgif with jet... Way too much food Had a Canadian french burger Brie cheese, aoli, crispy bacon on a briosche roll... Oh yeah.., and mayple syrup marinated chicken... Was like I was eating pancakes in a chicken burger ... So freaking good !!! Also got pretty fhucked up on Jd for the first time ... Nice cocktails with about a bajillion shots in em ha

wow bro that is awesome mate well done.

Machine bro. Congrats. Bet u never bother with street tyres again lol

@ Gold DM you are an absaloute champion!!! 3 days iv been searching forums ect and havent found an answer. I switched my ignition on and held in the volume power button it took about 4 seconds and my display is staying on. Very much appreciated.

Gs with all the badging removed and a tune, have the power of the gt without the attention

Voted will do again tomoro

That pic was taken at 7 days

Mate I hate to break it to you but that's a guinea pig How old? Looks braaaand new

Loved the vid ... My bestie showed it to me yesterday... Sat there moist through the whole thing.... The mustang is porn... Panda stop being ghay

Bahaha girl ... Super excited Can't wait til she opens her eyes Only 12 days old today... The humidity crib is her home with her sisters ... Bulldogs have to have c sections a lot of the time so mums don't do well looking for the pups, they stay in the humi crib and are hand fed (attached) and toilets every couple hours 24/7 for the first few weeks of their life... They lost one pup to fluid retention type thing and the others are doing well. Never realised how much goes into bulldog pups and why they're so expensive and very few that are of a certain standard and have little health issues. I'm having so much fun doing the mum thing and buying doggy stuff... Never got to do it co hudos a boy and boy stuff is boring haha

Might be one of those rare, dickless recliners

Lol

IE is in the Tapatalk realm fir me. If your using it its your problem.

4 votes sent - will send more from home tonight. FYI: each browser counts as a fresh vote too. Got one in on IE and one on Chrome Is there any way to see the tally of how you're going against the others in the comp?

New battery. Been having it not crank occasionally on first key turn for a month or so. Last week the cruise control didn't activate til restart and the bluetooth would wouldn't activate a couple of times. 30 mins at the races with the radio on and I needed a jump - knew it was time to change it out. Fitted a 630cca and all good so far. Car cranks over a lot faster than it ever had. Think my bushes are next to be looked at. LHR had a bit of a squeak it never previously had and now feels a bit loose when I load it up (squeak has gone). Tonight I heard my first squeak from the RHR

I'll race you kent...come down the Mitchell freeway after 6pm marfarker

Replaced top long timing cover bolt that stripped - grrrr. Luckily the hole runs deeper so got an Ellen key headed high tensile 130mm bolt (OEM about 122mm). Painted it silver and replaced both sides so they match.

Well I can officially brag that my car is quicker than a 2013 "444hp track pack" mustang. Absolutely pants him up to the speed limit on the merge from Alexander drive to reid highway. Apparently he wasn't too happy so had to do the looser fly by in the emergency lane after I had back off, of course spraying me with rocks and road debris in the process.

Herd they're handy in the shower also. Edit: Better post a pic, or will be in trouble. Or two.

And those who went MTA first .........

Pretty sure Dags already posted this but I couldn't watch it and had to search for it. http://youtu.be/5qanlirrRWs When I posted pics of this car I wasn't even sure it was real, it looked like a computer rendering.........but it's real alright, holy sh*te!!!![emoji15]

nice teaser will I need me cape ?

^^ no probs mate.........10% of any winnings though coz that's the rule

Drained my 30k old dex 3 and filled it with some penrite today. Not a huge difference but definitely a step in the right direction. Quieter at idle and better on the shifts

http://youtu.be/tLt5rBfNucc

There's no real direct comparison and your right the vl is probably much lighter. It was more they are pretty much the quickest barras around, similar times and well...one is a Expensive Daewoo lol

Looks like GMKILR has some competition, and they are fighting fire with fire Ford 4L turbo Expensive Daewoo VL Calais - Turbowerx:

Holding the power button toggles this feature on my fg.

15 bloody 'shoe' threads McMerged.... ...and there's probably more out there in other sections... Hiro's look good from a distance , they look boxy up close to me.

You will have to tap into lines to get power and lighting for the gauges, most go TC button for lighting (I did) and I went power from the mobile phone plug. There will be no wires under the panel when you remove it! Boost is easy just cut into the line goin into the BOV from the manifold, no idea about water temp though, never have even thought about it...
