merloooooooooooooot

Idk if it counts but, i added a gta bluetooth kit to my car

Replaced radio with a bluetooth one.

Took out OEM breaking-ass cupholders, replaced with an ashtray.

Replaced interior lights and dash LEDs with purple ones.

Changed my ac system from R-134a to HC-12a. Same temp as before, but less drain on the engine. Probably would have worked better if I hadn't messed up by charging on a vacuum.

I swapped the shitty long roof aerial for a 2" stubby one because I don't use the radio. Cost me $5.
Extravagant, I know.

>>17573024
is that a giant cup holder?

>>17573160
Huh I'm curious, when you say less drain on the engine, what exactly do you mean? How difficult was it to convert?

Poly bushings in the rear suspension, stainless steel X pipe cat back, LS7 clutch conversion, K&N cold air intake

>>17573188
Air Conditioning uses the engines power to run. It must take less power to operate now.

After you die when your A/C explodes, can I have your stuff?

>>17573219
damn son post pics of all your "projects" on the left

>>17573226
BUT HOW

>>17573188
AC compressor runs of the engine. 12a weighs less and takes ~30% less energy to compress for the same results.

As long as you have the tools (manifold gauge set, and can tap) it's pretty easy.

>>17573358
Are you in the US?

>>17573277
It was a shop that builds race spec BMWs. I deleted all the pics that weren't my car though.

Disk brakes.......front.

Bluetooth FM transmitter
Car is too old to have an AUX jack, but too new to have a cassette player

>>17573160
>R-134a to HC-12a

are you mexican?

Not really a mod but intend on installing a GameCube when my Pioneer radio with an av output arrives.

>>17573024
Removed two catalytic converters of total of four. Made it look almost like 2014 facelift model.

r152a is computer duster lol

>>17573024
Carbon fiber lined synchronizers, helical LSD, hard race suspension bushings, eibach springs, larger brakes.

I modified my exhaust to go directly in the cabin because I really wanna fuckin die

I spent more time unmodding my car. When I bought my Mustang the previous owner had put in every single piece of interior and exterior chrome/billet trim that places like LMR sell. It was awful. Ripped all that shit out (except the MUSTANG chrome bumper letter fillers that're kinda cool) and replaced it with stock.

Mods I've made to the car are Cobra steering rack, Cobra leather shift knob, Cobra leather parking brake handle. Just because those parts needing replacing anyway.

Pic related is the most recent of things, factory spider gears munched themselves recently, so, dumped the 2.73's for 3.43's and had an Eaten Truetrac put in, as well as all new bearings/seals, can't wait to get it back on the road.

>New bluetooth head unit -oem quit working
>new speakers -oem ones disintegrated
>switched all outside lighting to led to give a more clean
>just installed a new radiator thermostat and belt as well as transmission cooler lines

Kinda sucks about the leds tho my front mount for my car is basically suspended plastic so i couldn't get a place to mount the resisters so im stuck with a fast signal. Leds in the headlamp perform really good as well, aimed them with a family member sitting in their car positioned like close oncoming traffic so i could get a reference to not blind other drivers. I mostly drive long distances on the interstate in the middle of the night so theres not many people anyways

Probably time to swap to bigger injectors / H-beam rods ?. Sweet engine either way.

head seat belts

Nothing too crazy.

Wired a radar detector horn and LIDAR jammer in my car. Connects via bluetooth so everything is hidden under the hood and behind the console. Only way to know I have it would be for me to leave the app running on my phone in the car or for you to start dismantling my car.

Have a 4G LTE Cell phone booster. Inside antenna is in the center console, outside antenna routed under weather stripping and it's a 4" mini mag antenna on the back of the roof. Easily removed for car cleaning, if I want to sell the car, or if I want to use it in another vehicle.

Have an aftermarket HUD that doesn't suck (Navdy) and connects via bluetooth to my phone, that is powered by/receives info from the OBDII port.

That's about it. I bought my car fairly well trimmed (e.g. factory installed remote start with heated steering wheel & heated/cooled seats, upgraded stereo & speakers, etc.) so not too much to do, and the engine I bought with the car has enough power for me.

One comment is that it is a huge shifter knob and weighs an amazing 795 grams so it swings into place with a thud. I prefer the grip on this to a sphere which isnt quite ergonomic

>>17574818
Do you notice any lugging driving around town low RPM

>>17573096
merlot mica is pretty great tbqhwyf

>>17576961
Yeah, next step would be bigger turbo, alu intercooler, h-beams, bigger injectors and bigger airmass meter.

>>17577534
Hondata, turbo, and better wheels.

I can't decide if you should make it more offroad (nobby tires and spacers), or better handling (coil overs).

>>17577545

Just a few things, mostly done myself. Koni Yellows, h&r sport springs (had neuspeed but too low for MN), poly fsb bushings, poly motor Mount and dogbone bushings, rear h&r swaybar, hawk hps pads, UM engine and haldex tune, and an auto headlight switch if that counts

>>17577554
