CruizinKev's 98 Mustang V6 Auto


hey guys,

just want to show you my stang.. few weeks ago I sold my Lexus IS200 supercharged >click here to see it< (sold it because I need money for some other things in live ) and bought this Mustang V6,






sorry, these pics are kinda blurry, but these the only ones I got right now. I'll get me the stang next week then I'll post some better pics

its already lowered with H&R springs and some 18" rims... My plans for it are CAI, MAC exhaust, black 18" FR500s, sequentials, smoked headlights and 6k HID. Maybe gears, but at the moment I don't know which ones.. 3.73 or 4.10... I want a quicker accel but dont want to loose that much of high speed. As you know I'm here in Germany so thats why

I'm very new in the Mustang-scene, so perhaps you got me some good advice what to do first of mods.. also heard about tranny oil cooler and stuff?

feel free and post comments

-Kev

topspeed with 4.10s is 159mph with the v6 mustang? really??? I read in other forums something different. they say that the car will get a quicker accelerate, but will loose some numbers of topspeed. but 159mph or even 174mph would be enough for topspeed

...yeah I'm also wondering with the car's height.. looks very high for having springs.. but I dont know whats wrong - I'll see when I get the car next weekend

really now if you were to get a newer mustang like a 99 or newer and had 3.73s and had a five speed you would be closer to 200 ... with 4.10s in a 99-04 would be like 180 something

oh no im talking theoretical ... if you could get a V6 to do 200 i would shit my pants ... you gotta factor in heat, drag, power loss... all that shit ... you might be able to top a new edge with 4.10s out at about 150-160 if your lucky ... you might have to get some nitrous to help it once your in over drive at about 5k rpms

LOL I'm german.... No I just want to know how fast a STOCK mustang v6 runs with the 3.73 /or 4.10. Its just a daily driver ...I dont redline the car and stuff...

I heard/read in other mustang forums that the car only got a topspeed of about 80mph with the 4.10 gears..

yeah no, since its a daily 115mph would be enough for me my daily speed to work is not more than 80mph, but somedays I drive on autobahn and need lil more than the 80mph - for then the 115mph is more than enough. you dont know how expensive gas over here is.... FOR ONE (1) LITRE unleaded its 2 US dollars (and more) over here.. but anyways I'm not really a racer-boy or something, I'm more the cruiser (thats why my nickname LOL),.. but I think my stang's accel could be lil bit quicker
