thought i'd share with every forum i have an account on...sooooo....
i put some 99 GT stockers on today...painted them semi-gloss black with heat enamel before hand though....the fronts are 245/45/17s and the backs are 275/40/17 nitto 555Rs....they hook better then any tire i've ever had...i can't wait to install the posi next month...my v6 lugs are too tall for the GT center caps...so until i can go get some shorter ones no centercaps...even though i have them painted already

Looks good if it were a GT, but I've never liked more show than go. Your car though and you enjoy it, so that's what matters.

There's a kid in hopkinsville with a roots-style supercharger on his 2001 v6......he's been on the dyno multiple times, always messing with something, 11 psi (I think), and...............barely keeps up with swapped Hondas and gets walked by stock gt's. In fact I know a stock sr 240 that pulls and my 14psi/stock turbo/street tuned 240 rocked his fucking world. Not trying to knock v6 mustangs...just sayin...if you were gonna go that route, don't.

just going to make this my last post on this site....it's pretty sad that auto guys and gals can't get together on a forum and enjoy our cars...but no...people have to hate...there are cars here i don't find tasteful but i keep it to myself because i know the person enjoys what they have....as for comments on a roots style being slow...maybe for your friend...however the person helping me with my car had an 03 v6 running a mid to high 12 on 10psi with an m112....a procharger on 10psi will put a sixxer into the low to mid 12s...maybe some people here should do more automotive research before they start to bash a car....good day to those that love the automotive world, and to those posers here...i'm sorry i couldn't pretend to give a shit and hang out with you guys....

you chose the path of the v6 mustang my friend, not me. I think if you had a set you'd at least make me eat my words.

trust me, i did research, i thought i might be able to do something cool with it, then i realized the only way to make respectable power with a v6 mustang is to put a v8 in it, then id have a v6 mustang with a v8 that still handles like a minivan.. its just massive failure no matter how you look at it, just save the potential money thats invested in the crapstang, and buy a gt.. easy

I will give you some time to think about your decision to leave and hope you change mind...However if you insist in keeping that sig you will be sent on a vacation. Sorry some people got under your skin but that is not an acceptable response.

So ive seen some really sick V6 mustangs, most would shut up the "big boys" on this site.
I personally like the car, it caught my eye when i first saw it. I think the comments were uncalled for.

Suck a cock? Look, don't go wishing male to male fellatio on people simply because they don't agree with you spending money on a V6 Mustang when it's cheaper and faster to go the V8 route. I mean do what you want, but the V8 people have a very, very good point. They didn't even make it personal, just tried to give you advice. That's what happens when you post things in a place where everyone has an opinion. If you wanted it to be favorable, post it on www.v6mustangsfuckingrawk.com.

Could you please direct me to the comments that were to such a point that should cause one to become so upset that they leave the site or that would warrant punishment?

I don't beleive he shouldve got so upset at the comments. But the needless remarks about how he should go the v8 route instead of v6 shouldve been held.
It's his car. Dont have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

Those making the comments about the V6 may have thought they were being helpful by recommending the V8 route to save him some money and get the performance he's looking for. Maybe it came off differently to him. Seriously though, if you mod a V6 Mustang, the only thing to do is get used to these kinds of questions and statements, because a lot of people aren't going to understand. You can either A) simply tell people you're just wanting to do something different. B) Learn to shrug it off and keep doing what you're doing. C) Get butthurt, call everyone faggots and pout. Guess which answer is the worst one? I don't really see where anyone said anything bad about his car.

I agree with you for once.
Maybe he should just chill out and shrug it off. Personally i love the v6 turbo/sc'd cars.

Exactly Satalac. I know where you are coming from Alex but if we banned everyone who made any critical comment on someone's ride that may possibly upset that person Tennspeed would implode.

Whats the point about complaining about peoples comments if nothing is going to be done about it? Either the comments are acceptable and he needs to grow up or these kind of comments should be prohibited and bans handed out for violations.
At least thats how I would handle the situation.

just callin it like i've seen it. I'd love to see a supercharged v6 run circles around me, but damn itd be expensive. Especially when a cammed 2v can do the same thing.

yeah.. lol, i admit we get kinda harsh with what we say here, but the point of building a car is building it for you, no matter what everyone says, if you wanna build a 1985 cavalier, do it! just be prepared for lots of haters, same thing with a v6 mustang, i think i can safely say everyone except fellow v6 mustang owners thinks "gay" as soon as the owner says v6.. lol
