1992 Ford Mustang Gt With Turbo on 2040-cars
Year:1992
Mileage:94000
Location:
Roanoke, Virginia, United States

RE-LISTED WITH NO RESERVE. Detailed Description: I bought this car about 7 years ago in South Carolina from the 2nd owner who had owned the car the majority of its life. For the first 4 years I owned the car, I drove it 3-4 days a week. However, things have changed quite a bit since moving to Roanoke, VA 3 years ago. An SUV and a minivan now sit in our driveway and the mustang generally sits in the 3 car garage all by her lonesome. Why is this? We have a 20 month old daughter, a son on the way on June 18th, and no plans of stopping anytime soon. When I first purchased the mustang it looked very stock from the outside but had several modifications including the turbo and several other mods you will see in the build list. In my time with the car, I focused on mechanicals, tuning the engine, suspension/handling, and looks. The car drives much better than new and the original black interior is in great shape. All paint is in great shape and original, except for the front and rear bumper covers that have been painted to match (they faded with time). To finish this build I would simply replace the faded black side window trim (rub with back to black but only lasts a few weeks), replace the headliner that comes loose on the sides above the windows occasionally, roll the rear fenders so the 295s no longer rub on extreme angles of approach/departure (or switch to 275s), and get some touch up paint for the spoiler. Modifications prior to my owning:
Modifications
while I owned the car: Converted the car to 5 lug axles with disc brakes front/rear -Front used
1995 Spindles with 2004 Dual Piston PBR Calipers -Rear
used North Racecar rear brake brackets and 5 lug fox length Yukon axles -Installed
1998 v6 booster and master cylinder While installing the new rear axles, I rebuilt the rear differential
and axle housing with Timken bearings throughout (didn’t need it but they were
free as I was a mechanical engineer for Timken at time) Installed front/rear cobra bumpers, exhaust tips Installed Moates Quarterhorse and used Binary Editor for tuning the engine. Installed new tires/wheels from Wheel Replicas
Installed Bilstein shocks and 1” lowering springs all the
way around Rebuilt front end with new ball joints and tie rod ends
Installed thermostat controlled electric fan/shroud Installed new timing cover gasket, thermostat, water pump Professional 4 wheel alignment Stereo upgraded with 4 new infinity speakers/amp/headunit I had the paint professionally buffed out and waxed 9 months ago knowing this day was coming. TUNING The mass air meter has been tuned for the 42lb injectors, so, by simply turning the timing on the distributor back to 0 degrees, you can run up to 8psi of boost and make wonderful power without risk of spark knock. I wanted to learn more about tuning so I purchased the Quarterhorse and Binary Editor and have made simple tune adjustments and datalogs. The turbo is large enough to make at least 15psi of boost but I have never passed the 8psi. I have the alcohol/methanol setup to come on at 7.5 PSI and spray continuosly. I have only filled the reservoir once with windshield washer fluid (50% methanol) so it must not use very much. *When the 2nd owner installed the TKO600 transmission (5 speed manual rated for 600 lb-ft input torque), he left the speedometer cable unplugged for some period of time while he was trying to find the correct speedo gear to go in the transmission. He told me the car has maybe 5k more that what the odometer showed. I trust this friend has told the truth. That being said, I marked the new VA title as mileage shown is not accurate for this reason. I have also replaced the weatherstripping between the (2) doors and rear hatch. I wish my other cars would sound like this mustang when I close the door - what happened Detroit? I have had some questions that I have answered for folks so I thought I would share them here for everyone: - How driveable is the car? Very - as much as any other car. I have taken it on many 6-7 hour drives from SC to VA, etc. - The A/C works wonderfully and I have never had any problems with A/C or heat. I topped the charge off on the A/C about 6 years ago and haven't touched since and it has performed wonderfully. I wouldn't own a car without good A/C. - When I upgraded the brakes, I added a line lock to lock the front brakes for burnouts, etc. I haven't done a burn out using it, but I have tested the line lock on steep hills etc. - The side/rear windows of the car have been tinted. The tint on the drivers side is starting to peel. - The flash on my camera makes the seats look kinda gray, they are nice and black. I am sure I'm still forgetting things I have done so check back for updates. There have been people asking if I'll end the auction early. Yes I will for the right price. *I have the vehicle for sale locally and reserve the right to terminate the auction early. If you are serious give me a call. steeleinva@hotmail.com 540-581-5986 |

Ford Mustang GT350R adds a lot more than just a new letter [w/videos]
Mon, Jan 12 2015Okay Chevrolet, the ball is in your court. Ford served up one hell of a rebuttal to the track-focused Camaro Z/28, introducing the limited-production Mustang GT350R, complete with over 500 horsepower, over 400 pound-feet of torque and freaking carbon-fiber wheels. Carbon-fiber wheels. Seriously. It's because of those 19-inch hoops, along with some other changes, that Ford was able to slice 130 pounds from the already lightweight GT350 Track Pack. The wheels are responsible for a 13-pound reduction in unsprung weight per corner, while the removal of such superfluous things like the air conditioning, stereo, rear seats, trunk carpet, backup camera and tire inflator accounts for the rest of the weight reduction. Along with the lower weight, Ford has thoroughly reworked the GT350's aerodynamics, adding a simply monstrous rear wing and diffuser, along with vented wheel wells, a new hood vent that both extracts heat and reduces lift. Beside the aero aids, Ford has shod the carbon-fiber wheels in ultra-grippy Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, just to guarantee the shiny side remains up. View 21 Photos Ford retained the standard GT350's 5.2-liter, flat-pane V8, Torsen limited-slip differential (complete with a 3.73 rear axle ratio), although as power figures haven't been published for the standard car, there's no way to know whether the GT350R received a power bump. What we do know, though, is that the GT350R will not be limited to the track. While that's certainly its natural habitat, owners will be able to register and drive this monster on public roads. Take a look at the official press release on the GT350R, available below. And also be sure to have a peek at both Ford's stock photos of the new car, as well as our full gallery of live images, direct from the Blue Oval's Detroit Auto Show press conference home at Joe Louis Arena.

The second part must be mailed in on company letterhead and gets down to the nuts and bolts of the vision and the provision of company bona fides. The complete proposal is due on March 1, winners will be notified by May 1. Click the link below to get all the details, and for show attendees, get ready to see some funky Fiestas and wild shaggin' wagons in Las Vegas come November.
