Wow, I havent check this link in a while. Well I did check out the tt 300zx fast and nice! But I moved about 40 minutes from my school. And I needed something that be more confortable and something with 4-wd drive, because of the snow. So I got the new Mitsu EVO 8. Its fast but still ins't a pimp machine like a Z. But my dad has his eye on the 350Z. THank you guys for all the advice and I am greatful I didnt by a Slowstang or Slomaro.
"Again, not likely. 225 hp, best quarter time was the notch back at 14.7. Where the GT's would run ~15.2. LX 5.0 somewhere in the middle. Mustangs didn't make sereious power until 96 w/ DOHC cobra, 305hp."
Yeah, like those people know how to drive. Any good condition LX with the 5sp is going to run high 13s.
BS will not. 13s no way. My stang which was built (link on my sig) would break into the 13's but no way a stock notch. My friend had a 95' that had gears, hard top, 5sp passed at 14.8 and he is an excellent driver.
your stang was hatch with seventeen inch rims. considerably heavier than a notch.
225hp stock w/mild bolt ons maybe 260hp. 330tq. 2900pounds w/driver. 13s not possible? You do the math or let me do a comparision.
91 SER 200 whp 2500lbs 12.8s
To be honest an LX notch w no air and a 5sp. The ten minute tune up and some slicks is a 12 second player. YOu can call what you what but I can produce documented evidence.
We never took andys notch to the track but here are some kills
00 GT 5sp might I add this wasn't a close race. A stock GT will run 13.7-13.9
WS6 auto
WS6 6sp win one lose one
slk kompressor
02 C5
93,95,97 camaros some of both
many many hatch gt's

I don't doubt that your car did it w/ bolt ons. I was talking about stock cars.
Show it to me. I've done the mustang thing, my friend had the SN95, my other friend a 96' novi2000 SC. Great, fun cars, we never saw a 12 in any of those cars. All the times were an street tires though. Also in FWD cars you loose less hp through the drive train. If you've seen those times in those cars that's impressive. I've never seen them though.

WS6 shoulda won everytime. 325 hp. MM&FF put the 2001 bullitt at 13.91. the 2001 SS at 12.9(should be similar to WS6). I don't know man... i mean i don't doubt you beat these cars, there is alot to a drag race and not many people who can drive well.
I looked on the www.mucslemustangfastford.com for the 12 second notch info but the archives didn't go back that far. I'm Saying 12.90s are possible with lightened Notch, shortbelt,high octane gas,gears,slicks. period
When I find the info I'm looking for I'll post it. As you can see there is the 12 second ser
Originally posted by 98_1LE When they say notch, they are referring to the '87-'93 Fox platform, which is considerably lighter than your friends SN95.
Yeah... I know what notchback is, I was trying to buy one before I found my mustang. It's been a while but isn't the chassis the same between the SN95's and the Fox body?w/ a few minor changes. Not much weight change I would imagine.

As I said before one of the kills in the notch was a 01 GT
This was with mild bolt ons. Headers,roller rockers, glass packs, stock gears. We are talking 2930 pounds with a 160lb man on the scale 1/2 tank of gas. LIght LIght. Imagine a 240 with a v8 and a traction lok solid axle that likes to dig in.
You'll see that in this article this particular one ran a 13.71
What Altitude are you at. If you are getting your numbers from an elevated track then numbers you give would be correct.
mustangs suck! my dad has a 86 5.0 lx 5spd that my 03 spec v spanks on o regular basis. all mustangs before 96 were crap. the ones after 96 are still crap just less stinky!!
GIANNI, I am going to try to be nice. Stock in good running condition, your dads LX should run mid/upper 14 second ET's if it is a manual, and upper 14/low 15's if it is an automatic. Either should be quick enough to take out most Spec V's. Next, the '87-'93 Mustang V8's were much quicker than the '94-'95, and even they were quicker than the '96-'98 (which were the slowest since ~85, but still somewhat quick. Some of the fastest street cars in the country are '86-'93 Mustangs.
Now I realize your dads car is 17 years old, but it should still give your V a run for it's money.
