Stronger Body


I have a 90 gt mustang convertible that has been sitting for 3 yrs. I want to fix it up and push it to 300 horses. i have ripples in the pastic from years of flooring the gas, how can i make the frame stronger to prevent the rippling effect? Whats a good 6 point roll cage?

6 point roll cage what the hell do you need that for lol



Get a good strut tower brace from Maximum Motor sports or somewere else respectable.

And get rid of those junk Ford sub frame connectors and get yourself some good ones like Competition Engeneering ones.


No need for a 6 point roll cage

They dont can you take off the factory ones and put regular ones on or is the frame different. I have never looked under a fox vert before

HuH like I said never look under a Fox vert before. Except my dads ASC Mclaren and that was originally a hatch chopped to a vert at the factory. So it the same underneth as my car. Its also and 86

6 points are not cages, they're bars

an 8-point roll bar wud be better if you don't like your back seat

full-length subframe connectors

verts will always twist more than the coupes/hatches, they don't have a top!

Dude what the hell are you talking about You come on here and call me out. And for your info you dont know anything about me. I dont live with my parents I have an apartment douche bag. I'll hand it to you though that is the most useless thing anyone has ever said to me man grow up this is the internet. And dont insult my family on here dip shit thats bull shit and you know it



I twas a joke dude learn how to take a joke thats what alot of things are on here. If you havent noticed there is alot of stuff that said like that on here. And hiding behind corners yeah im on a computer. So if I am whatever but your doing it more. You cant even say it like a man you gotta insult my family. Thats the last time I wanna hear you say something about them. So if you dont like the jokes on here leave.

As you would notice no one else got pissed about it even Jordan wasnt mad because he knows its a JOKE.
