Everyone's Winter Plans?

[wahoo]

Just wondering what everyones winter plans for mods are. My goal is to get to the 11's with the stock pulley.

Here is mine:

Level 5 shafts
Mj brace
sub frame connectors
Weld Torq boxes
Irs Bushings
shocks
Set of racing wheels and tires
( I can't decide between Bogarts or welds)
Sct tuner

If I don't sell the Cobra, maybe I'll paint it
but I am undecided, and probably not going to do any mods
(being that I am planning on selling the 2 that would get modded )

 

[hj16]

Liberty 26 Spline Input Shaft
Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch w/ Sintered Iron Flywheel
DSS Level 2 Halfshafts
and Possibly MM Coilovers

Now that I got the 315 BFG DRs yesterday I want to be able to use them with no fear

Just curious, but why does it seem like everyone is keeping the IRS and not going w/ a solid axle? I can understand if you plan on road coursing the car hard core. A solid axle just seems to be more reliable and more affordable. Just curious.

My plans...bye bye modular, hello pushrods.

Well I was seriously debating it, and recently made a post to ask for opinions on that same subject.

I am still not 100% sure on what I want to do, but considering I am not a big drag racer or street racer, I think I will stay with the IRS. I also plan on trying out a road course event or two next year.

I would rather keep the IRS than move onto a solid for better ride quality and better handling. If I was going to make this a drag strip whore than I would move to a solid. Besides there are plenty of cars running deep into the 10's with IRS so why change.... :headbang:

 

[Mystic Terminator]

Springs
Roll Bar ?
Tires/Rims
Various Bushings - Comp
MJ Brace - Comp

I was seriously hinking of doing the swap, but I dont drag race that much, and dont plan on doing it that much. For $900 I can get a IRS that will handle my power level with ease, and with the coilovers it should make for a pretty decent open track car. The solid still gives a good ride, but itd run me more than the halfshaft upgrade, and itd cost alot more to get it to handle as well as a IRS with coilovers.

[PearlBlue L]

Im buying my buddies stock plenum and blower that only have 2100 miles on them, getting them ported and im polishing them myself. E fan and water pump, and maybe some headers. Only things left for the stock block. Probably going to get some dark mystic stripes on my black L too... I think it woud look good. Looking into some kinda stall convertor too. I dont know yet.

Wow, is that a RICEY list or what!

Also, been mulling over the trade-daily-driver-Ranger-in-on-used-Lightning-mod. Although I think I may have some trouble gettting that past the finance comittee (wife), congress (wife), and the president (wife).

 

[Flyn]

You guys rock! I see some ambitious plans for the winter. :biggthump

Personally, I want to tighten up the drivetrain and work on traction and less hop next year. The Winter doesn't really matter to me since I drive the car nearly every day... Oh, I'll put the snowtires on in a month or two.

 

[1MEANGT]

Here is a list of things for the old fox body:
2.95 pulley for the vortech 15-16psi
TFS Trackheat upper/lower intake
42lb injectors
80mm Pro-M MAF
Walbro 255 lph pump
Custom Chip/Tune and ditching the FMU.

Should net me around 500 at the wheels. Oh, and a Tremec TKO for when the T5 decides to go......lol

Not to much planned for the 97 Cobra. Saving to buy a new motorcycle in the spring.
