ok so right now i have pretty much a list of everything i wanna do to the ole 232........or.........i could spend that money and get a gt (dream car by the way)........which would be a better investment?

[shadow5403]

if you can afford the GT, then take it. Overall you will see more gains with the parts you put on the V8 engine.

[riddlee josh]

go with the GT.
it has much more potential and you can brag about having a GT

[shadow5403]

personaly id rather have a mach1 or a termi.

[emgjsdk1]

i like the mach 1 but i cant afford the one i want.......its like 17,900k or so............the gt i want is about 13k............but should i go with the convertable or coupe

[shadow5403]

depending how much you want to mod it i fyou get one....youll will run into problems with a convertible if you want LTs. Most wont fit unless you modify the k-member. rag top is definitely sweet tho.

[riddlee josh]

hmmm well IMO if you are just going to use it for cruising and show go convertible. but if you plan on racing it go with coupe.

dont let chris see this thread, he'll just call you lazy for wanting to get a GT instead of putting the work into the v6 typical v8 hate, its not like you can't put work into a v8 and be proud of it either

i dont have anything against a v6 cause i own one, but i also own a v8, so id get a GT instead of modding the v6, and then when u have the money just mod the GT and you'll have a bad ass car, especially if its your dream car man, its your money but if you want a GT go with a GT

oh and go convertible bro thats what my v6 is, but its a fun car to cruise! as far as the longtube headers, yeah they won't fit without modification, but who cares! get shorties if you have to, may not be as good as lt's but its whatever ur preference is, if you want performance go with a coupe, if you want cosmetics go with a convertible, they can look really sharp, i mean so can a coupe but i like convertibles better for cosmetics

[shadow5403]

nah just modify the k-member.

[emgjsdk1]

its not that i hate the v6 i love mine and i got a list of bs i want to do to it but i think it will prolly cost more to mod the v6 and i plan on modding the gt :] the convertable i want somebody wasted

clearly you didnt understand why i said it last time
there nothing wrong with modding a GT but why get one?
if your looking for big power anyway EVERYTHING will need to be worked on
tranny, rear, engine etc..
all will break around the same as a V6 aside from the rear



and to the person who said you can brag about having a GT why?
whats to brag about they're still slow as well. especially the 2vs, and non pi GTs...
they'll blow at around 400rwhp just like our car just with in time.
the tranny is the same as ours

you havent seen prices on GT parts plus the already $3-5k more for the GT
the parts are the same price if not more expensive
the only thing cheap is the clutch
plus how to you figure. each piece like header and heads need more material for an extra cylinder which is more $$$
2 cams
2 more wires and plugs
etc

[ESG-642T]

Screw a GT for 13k, just buy a 98+ trans am/z28


But I'm with chris on the GT, whats to brag about? It takes them tons of mods to be fast (excluding nitrous), parts are typically more expensive, labor is typically more expensive, and have you ever tired to put long tubes on a 2v(pita).

most people have to drop the k-member

ive done my homework on the gts dont worry about that

ok so what do you guys think of this
Details of Used 1999 Ford Mustang, Virginia Beach, VA - Yahoo! Autos

yea this is a v6 but i like the body kit and the motor has less miles than mine and it has leather seats and crap like that plus im guessing a better exhaust

im pretty sure i said SOMEONE WASTED 200 on the gt on a bbk intake
NOT ME

[itschristorres8]

im pretty sure your not good at math $13k for that GT
you might sell your car for $7k if its got low miles

$5k extra your spending you do the math from there on out
my turbo kit was $4k fuel injectors and fuel pump was $300
lol i'll ripped that GT up shifting at 4500rpms lol and im not tuned
tune and 10psi or 12 will make the GT a joke

you can also get a s/c or nitrous as well and also tear the GT apart
justins procharger is $4500 has EVERYTHING you need even a tune
bolt ons and nitrous will take that car
power pak and bolt ons and tune
allll with money left over
