Then again, I own a v3 Mag and I don't post much.

Anyway, update on me:

Rav4 build where the Mag v4 would go when I buy it: On Hold. Fucking college is expensive.

Bigger box for my Mag v3 in my Mustang: On Hold. Fucking college textbooks are expensive.


Pics of the Stang please! I'm a Mustang nut!

I can't find any recent ones, but here's one from a few years ago:


Then This happend, when it was parked and nobody saw shit happen:


then a few months later, parked at the exact same place:

Luckily, this time my alarm went off, and I caught the guys practically taking the corner up the street. It was the neigbors accross the street. I called the cops, and their insurance payed for the damages. And my car was like new.....But....

This:




My car does not have collision protection, and the lady that hit me did not have insurance (or a driver's license, but who need thatto drive ) Oh yeah, she didn't have a job either

After that, EVERYONE said the Mustang's cursed, and I should look into getting a new car. My girlfriend and I decided on a 07 Rav4 and split the cost. Well, she drives it more, and I ended up getting the Mustang repaired. So, that's why I don't just get rid of one car. Mustang is mines, Rav4 is hers.

I was thinking of getting a new Mustang to replace the old, put the new Mags in the new car, and use the old Mag for a home theater, and leave the Rav4 alone, but that's more money then I have. I could just replace the v3 with the v4 Mag, but I'm not getting rid of my v3.....ever, no matter how nice they may the v4 sound. So, that leaves me with putting the v4 in the Rav4, which makes sense, but will have to wait for any real progress. Hopefully I can make this happen before a v5 comes along.

wow bad luck w/ that car! if someone hit my range i'd probably kill someone haha. especially, an idiot w/o a job or license or insurance.

and i'm going into 3th year mechanical engineering, but will graduate in an extra year with a double major in mech eng and quantum physics.

hence the huge txt book bill. haha.

Dang and I thought my text books were expensive at about $1,000 a year.

I think I agree with your friends on the mustang being cursed, does look like a nice car though I love mustangs but like trucks more so thats what I got now, otherwise I woulda had a nice 05 or so GT with a few bells and whistles added on.

Is that a 5.0L 95, or a newer 4.6L car?

Oh and your quantum physics sure trumps my Civil engineering lol, I'll go back to playing with my dirt and water.

Sorry to disappoint all the Mustang fans, but all I have is the 3.8 V6. 145 HP, one of the weakest in the whole Mustang history. I did a few basic bolt ons, but there's really nothing you can do unless you spend big money on turbos and cams and all that. Honestly, if I did have a V8 from the start, my money would have gone to engine mods, instead of sounds. I was planning on getting a brand new V8 Mustang, but with gas being retarded (Hawaii is consistently top two on highest gas prices in the nation), and me needing more room, I got a Rav4 instead. This was about the time when the proto Mag was a triple stugged monster. Wish I knew the Mag would have ended up being a small enclosure sub......

Also, Engineer students, maybe I'll work for you one day. I'm in school for AS in Architecutural, Engineering, and CAD technologies. One day, I'll get a Architect license.

I've had every end of the spectrum in Mustangs from 4cyl to the Cobra, and honestly, the Turbo 2.3 SVO was a blast! I love my 3.8 DD. It may be slow, but once you get it wound up, there's nothing like throwing it around the corners.

I have about 6K into the suspension on my Cobra and it's still not as fun as the V6. In fact, my next build is going to be a new edge SN95 V6 with twins. Might even through a TT Duratec 2.3 or the new EcoBoost in it. There's just something about the extra weight savings that really transforms the car.
