Nice. I have 4:30s in my rear. I put Steeda sport springs in mine and Steeda U/D pullies. With the long tube and O/R pipe, do you have problem passing smog or are you registered out of state? Nice mods, BTW.

Yea the stang is registered in Missouri where its being stored right now. I am having it transported out here around the new year. Can't wait to drive it again!! I am going to keep it registered in MO though just bc of the free smog pass hookup I got....... :)

true

false. give me the $30,000 to buy an 03/04 z06 vette, and give me the same money to buy a terminator. i betcha with the money left over from buying a terminator, i can make it DEMOLISH the z06... i can easily find a terminator from between 18~20k... that's 12k i have to throw into the terminator. do you know what i can do with 12k and a terminator?

That is true..but not what I said. If you had each stock and added the same amount of money..the Z06 would still win. What you saying is true however apples and oranges. Anyone can take a lemon and with 30,000 build a monster. GT500 Shelby is better than my Cobra..but I'll spank it and have spent less money all together which is your point and I agree. -Shane

I am just a car freak in general....dont really bash to many cars. And I would like to say.... not everyone pays the same prices for cars, you can put a guess on all price tags but the fact remains that he paid less for the vette then he could of got a terminator for at that time and was walking them with ease. So to each is their own.

comparing a modded mustang to a zo6 is stupid. a termy goes realistacly closer to 25k. guess what, so does an early zo6. so for that extra 5 or 6k, maybe you have enough to upgrade the blower. so now your making 450ish to the wheels. the zo6 makes 405, is lighter, better weight distrubition an extra gear, i mean really? so maybe, but probably not, but maybe you can get it on a straight line, for about an 1/8th of a mile. not a 1/4, and not anywhere else. highway, twisties, forget it.

Im glad you want to turn a statement into an arguement. Don't know how your arguing the fact that he got a modded un molested z06 for under 24k. At that time there were no terminators for that good of a deal. And yes the z06 runs just fine in the 1/4 mile, hwy, and twisties. yes every car has their advantages and disadvantages.....
