hey hmong, wanna face-off :)
Yes, I catch a lot of crap from my co-workers for my sixer. Most is in good fun and joking. Like two guys that I work with, they make fun of me for driving a six when they drive a 4.6 V8 F-150 and a 4.6 V8 ex-squad crown vic. A machanic makes fun of me all the time, but (nothing against 4cyl. stangs) his mustang w/ one side pipe sounds more like my snow blower and he says that his sounds better than mine :looney: . Everyone tells me he wants to race, but when I asked him to line up or shut up he says he'll race only with his mom's V6 Jeep liberty :lol: . He thinks its so cool. But I like my car no matter what. I was on my way home from a carshow and raced a '78 Camaro Z28(we thought I would get spanked, no traffic so we raced anyway), we stayed door to door 55-105mph and that was w/exhaust only:lol: ,he couldnt believe it. I love my car 'cause its a 'stang and thats what matters most :devil: .
Hell yeah, that's what I'm talking about!!! Don't ever give up, no matter what's under their hood. What I tell them when they ask "when am I planning on dropping a V8 in" is "that I didn't know I needed one"!!!Quote:

Its the way Most of us can all get together and hang out and noone gives a shit what engine or year you have. I personnally would NEVER buy a 6 cylinder anything, Mustang included. I just wish Ford would have put a lil more power into them for you guys. For christ sakes i literally smoked the ever loving shit outta one the other day with my 97 F-350 4 Door 8 Ft bed 4X4 All I have done to it was put the Edge Evolution kit on it cause the wifey drives it most of the time. It does have the 7.3 turbo diesel though but my god this truck is heavy. Not good in the mud either lol. All I have to say is if someone has a problem with you just because your Stang only has a 6 then that person is an idiot. Now if your talking shit about winning a race 6 v/s 8 and you lose then its you that looks like an idiot. I have had a few people that I used to hang out with that kinda ignored me when we was ALL hanging out back when I had my 86 5.0 (The only older one of the bunch) But that bitch would pull the wheels off the ground. They didnt like it when I finally got pissed off and showed them how slow they were. So even if ya get an 8 there's always those haters out there that thinks one way is so much better than another. To put it bluntly if they dont like F#@% Em. I hope this lets all ya'll Know how I feel bout that :devil: :ranting: Oh and this :nos: does numbers for being slow lol
Well, even though I'm REALLY late on this..
A classmate of mine just came up to me and said "So, why do you think your Mustang is fast?" and I simply replied "Well, it's a Mustang."
Then he proceeded to tell me that my Mustang was NOTHING unless it was a v8. So, I asked him why he has 32 inch wheels on his truck when he does nothing except drive under the speed limit..
Link him to the TT 6 running 10s
Yeah and if that's not enough then link him to www.supersix.com!! That's all motor.Quote:

There's this guy at my fiance's work that drives a rusted-out Probe. My fiance just bought This:

[I know it's a Honda.. He leaves business of Mustangs to me.]
Which has an 96 Integra engine/transmission, and Integra TypeR suspension. This jack-off has already started talking crap about Brenden's Honda, and has now even started provoking me with the "My Probe could beat your Mustang." crap.
He's already challenged my fiance to race, and he's asked me. I told him that I leave the lightweight crap to my fiance and to come back when he's got a car worth the gas money he puts into it.
Hell Yeah, Get em NAY!!!
There are always degrees of separation. V8, V6, Carb & fuel injection, Fox Body, Late Mode SN95's which breaks into the 94 to 98 group and the 99 to 04 folks.
I am constantly hit with other mustangs around town letting me hear their engines when they go by or pull along side, but they seem to just pucker up when a chevy, Ponitiac or chrysler comes by. Shouldn't these guys be hitting the gears around those guys?
There are clicks in everything. If you pulled most of the hot looking mustangs from gotstang over half would probably be a V6. Take a look around. A stock cobra or mach does not fit into this catagory. I am talking about cars that have been modified, painted and fixed up.
I just purchased a v-6 mustang (2006) and yes I like the way it looks and I will add a few mods to it. But Yes I am female and I also own a 1965 Mustang Coupe that "I" am restoring myself. I have completely rebuilt the front susupension from the sway bar, to springs (600lbs and lowered 1") to the bushings and shocks. I am now redoing the body and I am almost finished with
that. It has a 5.0 going into it and am doing it because I love mustangs (yes I like Camero's as well) but mustangs are my true love. I have always like working on engines since I was 15 and I love muscle and sports cars as well.
Usually I find when guys dog a v-6 that is owned by a girl it is because the girl has done more to her car than he has done to his. Get over it.... I love looking at cars that are faster and better looking than mine. It is part of what makes a car lover a car lover. Remember 1.5 liter is a drink size not an engine. :thumpupn:

Should have close to 400 at the wheels. I'll defend the six.
That is a really sweet set up :thumpupn:Quote:

Little over 300hp. I still get poked fun at but now I find it humurous more than anything
It's nice to see that people are supporting the V6. Nothing like asking for an opinion on going from an 02 V6 to an 05/06 V6 convertible and all you hear is that unless its a V8 it's nothing. So much for showing the love. I am loving my V6 and once I can, I am definetly going to repair/modify it. Be well all...
My reply is yeah you might win a race but i bet id beat ur ass right now! They always shut up after that! LOL
i think alot of it has to do with how you represent your car. if you have some retarded body kit that's unpainted and unfitted, altezzas, and the car looks like you didnt do any planning, of course you're gonna catch some flack. but if you keep it conservative, make it look pretty, and drive it like you know it's a 6, people tend to respect it and you.
that being said, stanger's should stick together, we should be beating on camaros and ricers, not each other (outside of fun and seeing what you got)
A guy I once worked for had a rare Cobra that he loved to brag would beat my old stock SN95 V6. He had maybe 300 hp vs. my 150 so it was a silly comparison, but whatever. Nowadays, a new V6 with a couple of good mods could stop all that talk for good. I'd love to be there when it happens.
I get sh1t from the guys a work about my "little" V6. Dyno day came and my slightly modified 245ci produced more RWHP than 2 of the 350 Chevy motors did. I i put dow 207rwhp, and 233 rwtq, these guys didn't hit 200 rwhp, beat me in torque, but was expecting that.
Needless to say, the whimpering began as well as did the excuses.
One day.. I'll be putting a turbo on this little V6, once the warranty is gone.. then the fun begins... :devil:
v6s arnt that slow my buddie and i were running in his v6 with maserattis or how ever you spell that also s2000 srt4 and v8 mustangs all he has is a cold air intake i own a v6 for the fun of pulling up to a ricer or a v8 and laughing when you see them in your rearview
I took alot of crap for owning a six becuase of how much I had done to mine and how much I was in the scene. Everyone said "By now you could have had the GT", "Ohh it's a six." Explaining how only a six cylinder at all the shows. Note how we always say "only a six cylinder" all the time. I am glad I finnally got the GT, the v6 was a good car but it will always be lacking. Hopefully I will find the time to sell it now.
Every once in a while I'll hear a comment... Mostly I just smile and ask what color is your GT? They don't even own a Mustang.
Other times I'll just be minding my own business and the opportunity arrises to have some fun...

Even had a 2006 GT (who knew I was running a V6) drop it down to 4th and floor while we were side-by-side at 65.
I floored it (downshifted to 3rd) and stayed side-by-side right up to 105 when he backed out of it. He was pissed, but he definitely was flooring it (even took his foot off the gas and slamed it back down again like it would make his car go faster! Did I sense some HOSTILITY?).
I made sure to pull in front at 110 and make my exit at the next ramp 1/2 mile down the road...
Smiled all the way home...
Never underestimate a V6 and a determined driver...
