Honestly these are terrible.

Get a v8 swap

So what makes them tettible it has low milage so still holds the 190hp and good amount of torque also it is my first car...

>>15533717
>So what should i start by modifying
your thought process

sell the shit heap, and buy a Miata or 240sx

>>15533751
Top fucking kek miata fucking miata jesus hang yourself and your faggot looking car fucking getting hit on by gay guys and have your arm toumd the ground as you drive....

I gave nothing against the 240sx but i wanted to stay away from japanese cars.

>>15533768
as a drift car the little fairy princess shitbox is miles better than your faggot-tier Mustang.

>>15533797
lol OP ignore them mate

save up and get a LS1 Turd gen to replace this hunk of shit but unil them run it into the ground and enjoy it for what it is

Personally i'd stick mud tyres on it and go rallying/offraoding after u chuck a LSD in it with 4.1 gears hahah

>>15533792
Op here thx anon

>>15533808
For shits and giggles go get a old diesel turbo and weld some brackets up or get a kit off ebay and see how long it lasts

Its the truth....

Literally makes less power than a civic with a 3.8L V6, has the worst fucking clutch, and in general is a clanky piece of shit.

Why put money into it? Drive it as it is and figure out what a good car is.

>>15533860
OP really needs to get rid of this car if he cant get a cheap swap or 5.x v8 conversion i'd junk it for irsurnace.

Horrible horrible cars

1998-2003 is literally the worst fords ever made the world over

>>15533847
Ive asked engineers and they told me because its a automatic it makes it really fucking tough... and out of curiosity how much does the engine cost and what what other parts wouldni have to buy...

Just save your money and eventually sell that pos for something nicer. You can't do anything meaningful to the shitty v6 in that model, and shit-tier transmission would destroy if you ever did.

Op.

Start with better suspension. Or sway bars. Or a hydraulic handbrake + the extra set of calipers.

Weight reduction.

Decat.

Any power mods you can afford.

And some shitty tyres.

Oh and definitely a new diff/LSD or just weld the current one.

Then change it to a manual gearbox faggot.

>dafuq
And he was talking about the Mustang making less power than a civic even with its 3.8 liter v6

Having watched people try to drift Foxes I understand why they're not popular in that role.

On their first tries they'll plow pretty hard and just keep pushing straight ahead. After a while the driver decides to use the power and then the tail end just zips right out but there's not enough steering angle available to keep it in check and they merely spin out. After a while of that they give up and get something else. In theory a Fox should be a hell of a drift machine but it's that lousy max steering angle that limits how steep a drift it can maintain and to change it would require changing the entire front end so it's not worth it.

>>15534057
>dumping all that work into a v6 auto
LMAO NO
Just sell and buy a v8 or better yet a car that can actually drift.

>>15534165
>implying a v6 auto can't drift

>>15533930
It never was worth $7k, I've flipped 20-30 mustangs. They just aren't very expensive. I'm surprised you paid more than 5k for an 04 v6 auto.

Foxbodys are actually going up in price now. If you grab a foxbody and only clean it up, no mods, in a year you'll be able to sell it for a lot more than what you pay now.

V6 auto mustangs are for women, but so long as you don't mind people thinking you're a woman or gay, it's a fine first car. Gut it, put it in 2nd, weld the diff, pump the tires up to 50psi, and skids for days

You will not make it a drift car, but you can hustle some people like I do with my '05 V6..

get rid of that shitty Y pipe exhaust system. Get yourself an X pipe in there.

also you need a racing intake manifold and cold air intake.

Fuck one wheel burnouts, get a limited slip diff.

Turbo/Supercharging is expensive, and I'm guessin you don't have the money, considering you bought a V6. Nitrous. Cheap and effective.

Also, to make your mods valuable and not break the car you need to have it tuned.

>>15536187
thx buddy

Put some money on a sound system and play eurobeat.
Your best shot at drifting a v6 auto Mustang.

>>15533837
What you say about manuals is true but only applies to high end transmissions. Your car has a shitty slushbox.

I'm sure certain anons feel your auto pain.

Don't be down on manuals because some elitists own them. They are really fun to drive. Save up some paychecks and put a 5 speed in from a junkyard, you will love it, I promise

>>15536546
He's talking about the differential.
An open differential will sit there and spin one tire while the other sits motionless.
A limited slip will spin both, but will allow one to turn faster than the other in situations such as turning.
A locker will always spin both at the same speed, usually resulting in your outer wheel dragging a bit when you turn.

>>15536589
This.

Get a 'locking' diff which means both wheels will spin

Good luck OP welcome to carfagland

Definitely drop in a V8. More aftermarket and a V6 Mustang is silly.

>>15536571
i begged my driving school to teach me on a manual but that bitch of a woman liked me as her student and didn't want me to go to the asian dude who teaches manual driving...
i started driving at 14, and she told me she was sick of niggers who couldn't drive so my driving kind of gave her break cuz she trusted me. she even fell asleep when she took me out for practice.

Op find a cheap 8.8 rear from a gt and swap it in. Get 3.73s or higher. Bam, quicker gearing and a limited slip. Those year v6s had a 7.5 rear stock and its hard to find a lsd for them.
Do some breathing mods and get a ratchet shifter if you can find one for that model, any way to control gear changes

>>15536589
ok so ill go ahead and say it i was never much of the car guy but i need to learn this and its enjoyable.

what is the difference between LSD systems and Traction control.

so LSD is so that one wheel that isn't getting enough friction gets all the power; hence distributing the power to the other wheel.

&

Traction control is when one wheel is spinning loosely the other kicks in to balance out the car so it stays balanced

Therefore

both are distributing power so that car isnt flailing around.

plz help.

Listen there is no way you're gonna have a drift car with a v6.
For the tranny an auto,especially the 4r70w will be good enough for this application, if you wanted to be serious you would need a manual and a different car.
You can either get another car or v8 swap it. The 4.6 and 5.4 modular motors will both work in it and are pretty easy to make work since, pretty cheap too considering the 4.6 was in crown vics and the 5.4 was in a fuckton of Vans.

>>15536187

Weld the diff, lower it, and look up how to modify your steering for more lock if you get ambitious.

i remember my first car op, it was a faggy Miata. I still got 180hp with the 1.8L though, seems like 190 is a bit low.

I dont fu king get it why would you weld you differential why the fuck would you lock it... why not just buy a lad and have the best of both worlds

>>15536619
Traction control is a computer telling brakes on individual wheels to slow down when they start to loose traction and start sliding to prevent the driver from dying in a ditch or generally having fun.

There are many types of limited slip differentials, pic related is Torsen type, which is considered to be the hip and trendy solution currently for non-smart electric diffs.

>>15533837
Yes modern high end autos are better than a manual in a race but not for drifting. You can't kick the clutch to initiate a drift in an auto.

Also, a modern high end auto transmission is not what you have.

>>15539882
Thanks for explaining

>>15539882
And if you were to explain a limited slip differential.... sorry ive watched youtube videos and the video tried to explain clutch pad differential... i seem to understand you more can you please explain it plz.

>>15539962
Basically it splits power to both rear wheels. If no lsd, when one tire looses traction, all the power goes to that wheel. So only one wheel has power.

Lsd let's you hold much better traction through a turn under power and for drifting makes sure you spin both rear tires so you have predictable slides.

>>15539987
Thank you once again.

>>15535784
>V6 Autostang and wants a drift car

Unless you feel like swapping the motor and trans or committing domestic violence on your clutch (nvm I forgot it's an auto) I suggest you sell it marketing it as a potential first car for someone else. If that is your first car, get something to DD and wait on the drift car. You won't want to drive something requiring daily maintenance, trust us.

>>15536030
But it weighs a fuckton more.

There are no worthy aftermarket mods, those automatics are piles of shit, the car itself isn't worth it to drift, there's absolutely 0 reason why you would even suggest such a stupid concept. Daily driver that shit don't turn it into a make-believe drift car.
