I also love my BFG g-force sports, they're excellent tires all around and are relatively cheap to boot. Never been happier with any other tires I've tried :)

Definitely strip it.

^that's a good idea

A MKIII was/is my first car and I sadly have to agree with everyone else, it's not exactly the ideal first car unless you can afford one in real nice condition. I learned a lot from it though... if you don't absolutely need a car of your own to get you places and are mechanically inclined a...

Wow. This is one of the more amazing "what I bought" threads I have seen haha!

I have similar mods (3" turbo back exhaust, cone filter intake, 2.5" hardpipes and aftermarket IC, .020 over pistons) and hit fuel cut at 10 psi also with an HKS EBC. I can run to redline at WOT in 1st and 2nd at 10 psi w/o cut but 3rd always gives me problems wen the rpms get above around...

It's great that you guys are stepping up and making this happen :) It's a bit far for me to go but maybe someday I'll make it to a west coast event :D

99-04 Cobras had IRS :) The current GTs are doing quite well in the Koni Challenge with their solid axles too, last year the stangs mostly placed in the top places (beating 911s and M3s lol) The new GT500 is heavy, but look at its competitors weights... the Camaro and Challenger are even huger!

Haha this reminds me of the top gear episode where they ride mopeds through asia

lol @ hater move

Wow, I love your black car! It's so clean! I feel your pain on the BHG and stripped exhaust studs, that happened to mine too. And rod knock :(

Yep

Firing order and crankshaft plane makes a big difference. Ferraris have flat plane v-8s, which sound different than American er.... "cross-plane" v-8s. Think plus sign vs. minus sign...

I have quite a collection of shims I've pulled out of various cars over time. PM me what size you need and I can take a look :)

Search for John B Lunsford, he has a website up with a writeup on his dual intercooler setup. If I remember correctly it helped a little bit with EGTs but he eventually decided it didn't make enough of a difference to be worth it. edit: here's a link http://www.jblmk3.com/cars/dual_stock_ic.php

=( why? did something bad happen?

Very nice! I like how your cam gears are different colors a lot for some reason :) It's unique

Sounds amazing!

I would definitely measure the inner diameter of the rod big ends and main bores, along with all crankshaft diameters and select bearings based off of those measurements instead of going with the numbers. After 20 years of wear those stamped numbers will probably not be in the right clearance...

I'm using NPRs, they cost me about $120 shipped.
