Just In Case

scxc15 · April 12th, 2009, 10:49 PM

Ok so I won a 2003 Mach on eBay a couple days ago and I'm going to get it Tues the 21st. It completely stock, as soon as I get it I want to put a set of gears and a tune in it. What gears should I go with? 4.10s or 4.30s? I love going to the drag srip so which I get need to be able to handle the quarter mile.... It will be my daily driver as well so any gas saved would be a plus, but I would rather have speed/power than gas mileage lol. I searched for a thread about this but came up empty handed.

Scott2001GT · April 12th, 2009, 10:54 PM

I have a 01 GT with an auto and thought about 4:30s but top speed came into play. But if I had a 5 speed I would so 4:30's and some GOOD tires. but ask people about shifting and trapping but I vote 4:30's

Scott2001GT · April 12th, 2009, 10:54 PM

and a SCT tuner too ohh and nice buy! what color

scxc15 · April 12th, 2009, 11:05 PM

Azure blue. Only 24K miles! Im super excited about it. I was pre-approved for the loan But it wouldn't be the first time something didnt work out for me when I went to get the car or money haha. I have to fly from Blountville, tn to orlando, fl to get it yay road trip.

Scott2001GT · April 12th, 2009, 11:09 PM

best MAch 1 color! ya I would say 4:30s and a SCT X3 tuner and good tires.

scxc15 · April 12th, 2009, 11:13 PM

Ive got a set of 17x10.5 black bullitts with 315 sticky tires than im keeping off the GT so I think that should get the job done

Dcskater602 · April 12th, 2009, 11:16 PM

just plug in the 430's into a gear calc... just depends on what u wanna do with the car

for a dd that sees significant highway, im not sure id go that low of a gear

Scott2001GT · April 12th, 2009, 11:17 PM

ya should then.....I would still get more imput than just me for sure. I told ya what I thought (4:30s) but I think you should talk to someone with that gear ratio

So as I said I always get screwed over when I try to buy a car. I just received....

"I'm sorry to say theres been a change of plans. I'm no longer selling the car. The deal fell through on the other car I was going to buy, so I will need to hold on to the mustang for my main source of transportation for now. I had another beater car, but I had sold that a couple of weeks ago. I apologize for this inconvenience. If I can resolve this in the coming weeks, I can let you know (assuming you would still be interested). Again, I apologize."

thats what I just recieved. When you put a damn car on eBay you are intending to sell it, not just thinking about selling it... damnit.

Anasty97Cobra · April 13th, 2009, 12:11 PM

That's BS. Ebay really should make people selling cars lay down a deposit that goes to the winning bidder if they pull out. It's not like buying a used XBox game for $20 or something. It's a pain in the ass to get all the paper work resolved to get approved for a loan.

And yeah, check out the registry. I'm on their all the time and Mach1 prices are dropping quick.
