Let your friend know that we are coming out with an entire line of products for Drift Mustangs including a ton of parts used on the Falken Tire Drift Mustang as well as serious parts for SN95 Gen I and Gen II's. Some of the parts on JR's car are very much one off but most of the contributing sponsors saw the need and potential to release their parts to the aftermarket through us. What year is his car and how serious of a car does he want to build?

We have all sorts of parts, even better than what is currently on JR's car that he will be getting on hopefully by Irwindale. we have adjustable sway bars, adjustable lower control arms, new upper arm, pan hard bars, the NEW TEIN EDFC's are in, adjustable sway bar end links with heim joints instead of ball joints, modified front spindles, steering racks, rack bushings, front control arm bushings, camber plates, rear shock tower braces (very important), sub frame connectors (weld in) Baer Racing 6 piston lightweight billet brakes, hydraulic e-brakes, seats, gauges and of course the 3D Carbon body kit with some seriously new trick wider fenders coming out soon too....... and for just about every year too, not just the new 2005s.

Yeah Eric's shop did a great job on JR's car. I can tell you first hand from working right next to Eric in the Falken pit that his Mustangs run hard. It's apparent from the guys at the track days that run stock mustangs that they need work just like any car to be ready to hit a draft track.
Next time JR and Tony run though Eric... we will see what's up

For anyone that wants prices on parts, our online store should be up soon. we will have the 3D kit and TEIN parts up first. Most of the parts for domestic cars are fairly cheap, a good set of header(S) will run about 400 to 500 bucks as an example and make about 25rwhp.
Dave - As far as another rematch....... bring on that ear piercing loud screaming Bi*ch..... oh and the FD too :-)
As far as issues with any Mustang with a big V8, weight is an issue along with massive cooling issues. Both water temps and oil temps can get out of control pretty easy. Otherwise, steering angle can be a *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* on the 2004 and below without the right set up. Other than that, weight and suspension balance but those can be easily reworked.

I have two mustangs, one sn95 I've been building to drift. I'm selling the other one, if anyone needs a nice platform. Ebay auction number 4564562041.
Steering angle is the key on these things, its very lacking, and you'll need very low offset wheels for the additional angle you do find. I've heard 03 cobra control arms help a bit, i've not yet tried, any input?

Steering angle can be added by using a torsion bar style front say bar and switching to a tubular lower control arm. the '03 arm is the exact same as any other arm. After that, pull the bellow boots away from the inner tie rods and remove the steering rack limiters. This should get you some serious angle!

cheap needle bearing steering shafts?
Hey driftfox- what cheap needle bearing steering shafts do you have experience with for Mustangs? I only know of the Flaming River shafts, which cost a couple hundred to start with, and even more for the ones intended for SN95's with power racks. How much angle do you have right now? Good tips, btw--from all ya guys.
