My 96 was spankin every V6 stang or camaro it encountered. 5.0's were seeing my tail lights and so did a couple of LT1's. Bad driver you encountered.

V6Owner

Not a bad driver just check the V-6 boards there are tons of stories like this.

I will do you one better..

when my V-6 ONLY had the following mods: pacesetter headers, plugs/wires, no cat (straight pipe) flowmaster exhaust.
Me and a 99 GT (auto) from all kinds of rolls you name it we did it.

I would have him by 2 cars all the up to my speed limiter (118mph) then thats when he would SLOWLY pass me. From a dig it was even worse! Trust me the sixers have ALOT of potential thats why I still have mine.

With my mods now I have NEVER been beaten by a stock 98-04 Mustang GT or even the few slighty modded ones I have went up against. No more speed limiter!!

Once I put on this 100 shot **** 05+ Mustang hunting I'm going LS1 hunting!! --> 3.8

Considering people have gone 14.20s in stock automatic 99-04 GTs, I find that hard to believe.

Hey but are you going to ever change your sig?


On topic though the Fox body was a damn good car when you started slapping modifications on it though.

When you modded the car didn't it take a lot better than the V8 F-bodies? Even now they are pretty cool when you mod.

Irunelevens

Do you ever not use bullshit magazine times? 13.8 for an S281 S/C? A normal 99-04 GT 5spd is *capable* of that time stock. So anyone that runs it in that car (which is quite a bit more powerful), sucks at driving. And a good driver in a 5spd LX notchback can run low-mid 14s. That's pretty well known in the Mustang community, because people take them to the DRAGSTRIP and run them. Not to mention the fox-body's weight advantage. It was just a better overall performer in the 80s/early 90s. And then Ford got shown up in '93, and embarassed in '94. Not that they cared, but quite a few of the owners did/do.

Yeah the 94-98 GT's sucked. My brother's first car was a 91 Camaro RS w/ the 3.1 and with just exhaust he could take those. It was very sad. But also extremely hilarious.

LOL im sorry it is true . Before i got smart i had 3.8 v6 camaro and raced my neighbors 99gt that was stock at the time and we were dead even till 90. So him beating a 96-98 is very believeable!! Im my present car I have had no trouble with any gts 96-2004 they all seem slow to me Even the new ones dont impress me at all they only dyno 260 to the rear stock!!

??? whats that too because 99-04 GT's arent fast themselves

I test drove a new 05 mustang GT...that i thought was slow too?? but thank god they atleast made it a little faster then the previous years

99-04's have potential it just takes alot of work to get it.
i ran an 05 gt and it wasn't an easy kill. they can move.

Joezee

This thread started out believable.....but now it's just stupid...you bs guys think anyone believes you???
3.1 dude thats the stupidest of all time....your brothers car runs 17 's at best.
3.8 heroes , quit while your ahead....94-98 gts maybe, 99's....NEVER HAPPEN.
you guys start with 200hp and no torque = 15.5s
add lid and exaust = 230hp??? = 14.9s ???
99gts start with 260hp AND torque = low 14's???.......
not bashing ... just hate it when gm guys sound like ricers......

dsblk93gt

A guy I know with a stock 98 GT auto ran a 14.8@92, I doubt a stock V6 Camaro is going to run that. My friends 94 GT with exhaust, slicks, and gears ran a 13.5@103.

The 94-98 GT's are not super fast..but not anywhere near as slow as most people make them out to be. An auto 2.73 geared 94-98 might get beat by a good driver in a 3.8 Camaro. But a good driver in a 5spd 94-98 should have no problem at all beating one. A 3.1 is not even going to come close in this lifetime.

A 99-04 GT 5spd is a 13.7-14.2 car PERIOD. I have seen dead stock ones at the track run a 13.7 with my own eyes. The auto cars are usually 14.1-14.4 stock. I think alot of people are racing the 3.8 Stangs with dual exhaust..lol.

Hell..even a 99-04 3.8 V6 Stang is a mid 15 second car....

And quoting magazine times is a waste of time. They put alot of the 5.0 foxbodys at a mid 15...haha..only a SECOND off there normal times.
