hhmmm 190 hp v6 vs 150 hp v6 v6's are better than gt's i.m.o.

Wow, such hostility. Calm down guys. The V6 and the V8 both have their pros and cons.
Simply put, the V6 is quite capable of making decent power, but it's not as capable of handling that power. The V6 driveline, suspension and brakes are not as well suited to handling power as the standard GT chassis is. The biggest advantages of the V6 are the lower starting price to purchase the vehicle, and the lower insurance premiums. When it comes to making a Mustang fast, it doesn't matter what engine you have, it's going to get expensive. The V6 owners have a monetary advantage from the start, but the GT owners get value in what they pay extra for: an upgraded suspension, driveline, brakes, and of course - the extra 2 cylinders.

everything for da swap for 2500 , i would be wondering the condition of the engine and who so cheap but would be interested

Don't swap in a non-pi 4.6 that would be a mistake. If you swap anything in go cobra motor, or PI 4.6

Uh what are you talking it is basically the same car just with a different engine. Brakes? They both use pbr 2 piston calipers. This is for 99-04. And as far as the gt is concerned it driveline doesn't do well with power either, you are going to have to upgrade both cars if you plan on making good power.

I have a private insurance company....Same quote for GT and Cobra....mine drops significantly after I turn 21...almost 150/month :devil: .....Full coverage on either car is around 210/month including coverage for aftermarket parts and theft insurance :beerchug:

I am actually starting to think I am going to switch to the dark side and buy a 02-03 SVT Lightning....I just have more use for a truck at this point in my life

Dont you think 210 a month is alot for 1 cars insurance, i have my v6 vert fully insured with a 2nd car, my wife is a new driver and i have a speeding ticket doing 99mph(cop said he was nice to reduce it to under 100 mph or i would lose my license for a year) and i pay 1400 a year and thats thru AAA with auto club and a 250 deductable,

By the way no insurance company will cover aftermarket performance mods, unless they are both manufactured and installed by the dealer and directly written onto the insurance polocy,

which in return will cost more per month

:silly:

no one answered meh questions though

thanks for dah distructive critiscism though just makes me love gt's more and more





if i were god i would spite all the wannabe's and make their v8's turn into pile of elephant dung



:devil: nice to work on huh!!!! :devil:

makes changing spark plugs a whole nuew expierence

Greedy - The quote about not covering performance mods is completely incorrect. There are special insurence companies/rates/plans you can get where you can register the parts you buy and install under your car. It's alot more expensive and generally not worth it, but it is available.

i am sorry i should have said no ins comp would insure you at the standard rate, and most will not insure you if your car is modded they will no quote you,

trust me i had a 91 crx supped up and it was a biatch to get the insurance becuse of an engine swap ( from a 1.5l to a 1.8l ) i had to get it smog legal in cali and it was reported to the dmv and then the insurance comp found out and then i was cancled in 5 days and it took me 3 weeks to get a new insurance and then i sold it and got a mustang

whoo hoo finally something went right lol

i think insurance companier are ran by the mafia, its the same racket as protection money pay us so nothing hapens to you but if you dont pay us watch out think i pay more for insurance than i do for gas a month and my car insurance is more than my health insurance per month

wtf is the world coming to when a car cost more to insure than a person

THANKS

This explains the horrible grammar.

ricer

well this is my opinion on the V6 V8. The V6 is cheaper in this idea of what im gonna do with my car.but lets take my 96 3.8l lets say i do for what ever reason do a V8 swap this means i gotta get a new comp for the car or at least reflashed, get a new rear end driveshaft etc . . . all the stuff put it together and for lets say 5-8k in parts, labor all that, well ok now i got a stock V8 whoopie right? well chances are if you went that far all the trouble of swapping out the V8 its because you wanted more power.

now heres my problem, you have a stock V8 with TONS of aftermarket crap you can buy, thus spending more $ to make it faster and faster. anyway my point is i like the fact the V6 is limited cause this is my daily driver and i need it to last and don't have another car when this goes.

so for me im gonna build a V6 block outside my car and take my time and when its all set up swap it in and strap on the blower and get it tuned. and because theres not quite the market for V6s ill be done with my car and i can go on living my own life and save up for a house, or even start on my classic 66 stang.

And if this information is wrong? Who does that help. If someone doesn't know what the hell your talking about then just the hell up and don't post. This is what is wrong with this thread because half the posts in this thread are just down right wrong with there information. If you guys can't see that then you need to just not post cause you are perpetuating the situation. Does this site even have mods to help with the info or what?

I am not being a dick I am simply stating that I tried giving you guys the correct information. But, you guys just ignored it like I didn't even post. I mean come on it gets a little frustrating when you continualy see people using the wrong info even when you gave them the correct stuff. I have never claimed to know more than anyone here, I just simply wanted to share my years of experience and knowlegde of Mustangs so I could help you guys out.
