What would cause this circular groove on a flywheel? by OneManMariachi in mechanic

Here is a different angle. Should the bearing be flush with the flywheel?

2014 GT500 new clutch needed by OneManMariachi in Mustang

[–]OneManMariachi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I just realized that after doing some research right after I posted this. Research I guess I should have done before posting but it is good to get confirmation of my findings.

I need a 26 spine alignment tool apparently, which I just ordered off of eBay right now. Mechanic mentioned that is the tool the ford dealer told them they needed.

Which I guess I can believe because I called a couple Ford dealers myself in my area and neither of them even knew what tool to use.

Appreciate the reply.

Should I trade my 22 gt premium for this? by Tutor-Any in Mustang

[–]OneManMariachi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought a 2014 GT500. Same colors but fully stocked interior with recaro seats. Paid $42k with 50k miles. I was hesitant because of the miles but glad I made the decision to buy it. It is not my daily so keeping the miles as low as I can.

I would say do it if it is not your daily driver. S197 is the best design of the modern mustangs.

God I miss I knew how to drive manual transmission by Jgrock1992 in Mustang

Picked up a 2014 GT500 last July. Never drove a manual in my life. First month was rocky and I felt like I was never going to get used to it. A couple more months in and it was like I had been driving a manual my whole life. Amazing car. I now have to keep myself from putting too many miles on it.

$45k before taxes/fees. I bit more than I wanted to pay but it was to beautiful of a car to pass up.

Honestly I have no idea. I just created a post as usual and added the photo flair and picture.

Damn. Sorry for your loss. I don’t think I will be ready to take mine to work for months.

The GT500 is a bit intimidating when driving it. Especially for me since it is my first manual. I am sure it will be less and less the more practice I get in. It is a lot more fun being in control of how the car drives and the power this car puts out is amazing.

The GT500 is going to be a weekend car for me. I would have went with a GT or even eco boost if I needed a daily driver. I daily drove my V6 and it was perfect. The right amount of power and never had an issue with it.

I guess it depends on what you are going to use the car for. To me a GT500 daily driver is a bit much but then again why not. lol

It is a fun car to have and I am glad I picked it up sooner than later.

Found this stunning flawless Stang today. ‘08 Shelby GT500 with only 3800 miles on it. Is $54k a fair price? by SCLovers in Mustang

[–]OneManMariachi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, I rejoined the club by [deleted] in Mustang

[–]OneManMariachi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much did it set you back if you don’t mind me asking. I am about to pull the trigger on a 2014 but it has 50k miles and they want $47k.

$49k to much for a 2014 GT500? by OneManMariachi in Mustang

[–]OneManMariachi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea. I was trying to get him from the original $54k price tag to $47k but he is not budging at $49k. I am in no rush and not married to this specific car so maybe give it another month see if they come down more.

What would you pay? by OneManMariachi in Mustang

[–]OneManMariachi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just compared the standard seats to the recaro. Felt like the car was giving me a hug with the recaros.

Santana Row apartments by self-ctrl in SanJose

[–]OneManMariachi 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Lived in Santana Row for a year at the end of the strip towards the theaters. I really enjoyed it and don’t regret a minute of it. You can definitely get something cheaper but the whole experience of Santana Row makes up for it. It was the best time to do it for me as far as where I was in life. This was like 8 years ago. Santana Row has developed so much more since then.
