Installed the new front swaybar endlinks and poly bushings, J&M Rear LCA's, new O2 sensors, and put the EGR pipe back on.. Car runs alot smoother now..

Musturd Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 The manual conversion is probably my favourite mod I did to my car . It's so much more fun and with gears 3rd gear cookers are the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95riosnake Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Stick isn't hard to learn, I prefer it over an auto all day long, until I hit traffic lol. But even then, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages of driving in traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even then, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages of driving in traffic. Doesn't seem too hard.. My dad drove stick for a long time, a big delivery truck and a 67 Cougar with the 289 and 3 speed stick.. So he can teach me. I've gotten to the point where this September I'll have the car for two years, and I'm just getting sick of the damn auto. So boring, no fun at all.. I'd rather be banging gears when I want or just cruise around. And all my friends with Mustangs have stick, so its a huge tease lol. Looking at this kit. I'm chaning the cable for a Ford oem one, and MM adjustable clutch quadrant and firewall adjuster. Its a rebuilt T5 with every part needed for the swap, some might say its expensive.. But rebuilt T5's go for 1000-1500.. So piecing it together would come out to more than this kit anyway.http://www.ebay.com/itm/94-95-MUSTANG-T5-TRANSMISSION-AUTO-TO-MANUAL-CONVERSION-MPS-HD-REBUILT-5-0-/141059758906?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20d7d11b3a&vxp=mtr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the5.ohh Posted May 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Got the infamous hanging idle now all of a sudden.. Pulled the iac and used a q tip to clean some dirt out since I didn't have maf or carb cleaner. Put it back on and it ran the same, rpms stay up, go down, stay up.. Before that I unplugged the iac and started it, seemed to idle fine.. So IAC is probably bad right? I just bought it last year, fucking vato zone lol. Other than that, got a new pcv valve to go in.. Than shit will get real! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Might have to build a "restrict or plate" for it I had to do that to mine to get the hanging idle away.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like blocking off the IAC? Similar to capping the EGR bung on a header? Don't want to sound like a moron, not too familar with the restrictor plate thing for the iac.

Zach Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Restricts the amount of air coming through the valve thus keeping the idle from hangingSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the5.ohh Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Update. I received my cobra calipers and brackets Friday. Yesterday I was bored and made the cobra calipers meet our bench grinder. Came out really clean, I'm happy with the the results. I got about 90% of the paint off the calipers, all the grime and dirt. I'll be replacing the seals and o-rings prior to paint. I cleaned up the brackets aswell and started priming them, prepping for color today. If I like the color, calipers will be getting sprayed aswell. I ordered Maximum Motorsports stainless brake lines, drilled and slotted rotors all around, ceramic pads all around and the o-ring and seals kit for the calipers aswell as a new hardware kit.
