Hmmm...My 5.br0 has 15" 6 piston brembos. What comes on the 5th and 6th gens?

 

Same stuff....those bakes were standard on 5gen and optional on 6gen i think standard 6gen brakes are 4piston

 

15" brembos were standard on the 5th gen? Hopefully they were bigger and better otherwise they would be considered "cheap" according to some.

 

I haven't kept up with the new stangs but figured with fbo ones making in the upper 400s it sounded possible with the 350 setup. I did see where JDM put one on a lightly modded stang and it picked up over 60rwhp and 40rwtq.

 

I work at a ford dealer and I rag on the gt350s to my managers all the time lol. They are nice cars but dig racing and 1/4 just arent there strong points.The tires need good heat for them to hook..unless you puss out and use the launch control. You really need to wind them out to stay in the powerband.The strongs points are on a circuit..through them through some twisties and it will come alive. They get alot of praise but ask many of these shelby gt350 owners how quick it takes to overheat 1 after 20mins of pounding and it goes to limp mode. If your making 450whp or close...and dont weigh over 3500lbs..go spank on one and it should be damn close. Id much rather get a new z/28 as it will be a shelby killer in 2017!

 

Gt350 is just way over geared for the 1/4 mile with its feminine powerband

 

Very feminine, the one I know is bone stock and a dead heat with a cam only fifgen 1LE on a roll.....

 

Yeah... that biased ******* video of the 15 Z28 vs 16 GT350 only showed 1 lap. If you are going to track race it must go longer.

 

And slower than bone stock 6 gen at your track too wtf

 

Fifgen Z28 was an over priced/rated POS. Everyone should rejoice that it is no longer produced.

 

Didn't a 6gen do better at your track than the gt350 at your track islander

 

islander033 have you seen a gt350 run? Just curious what kind of real world times they are putting up.

 

About time they came out with a mustang that can handle the "pig" 5g. I've been wanting them to come out with a car other than the GT that handles.

Wonder how it stacks up to a zo6, or a viper in a real world street race

 

C6z still in a different realm than gt350

 

Well I didnt specify; I meant stock 5.0 brakes from 2011-2014. It has been an option for a while and stock brakes do look cheap *** vs any 5th gen. You assumed 2015+.

You can fit any wheels over those tiny rear brakes so its easier and more affordable to bolton a drag setup for the average guy. That was the point.

 

Wow..Z28 a POS!? LOLLL it was overpriced because of the non-optional CC brakes. That was a mistake.

 

This past winter (not very much of a winter down here) a white with blue stripes gt350 went 11.7 @ 121. Same night a buddies 4th gen 215tfs/custom cam/ fast 92 yank converter/4l60 car was going 11.1-11.2 @ 120-121.

 

The 2015's were reduced in price to high $50k's in the end of production... bargain at that point

 

I saw a Z/28 for under $50k. Kind of a steal despite the fifgen getting a lot of hate on here.

You can get a really nice C6Z for GT350 money...

but if you want a new car with full warranty, flat plane crank V8, and back seats (albeit useless) then I guess you'd buy a GT350.

 

Looks like he's not gonna answer.....so you know what that means.
