Because the Cosmo has an oddball 4x120mm bolt pattern and any other bolt pattern simply won't fit.

So yea it matters a bit. :p

None that I'm aware of.

You see alot of 4x100, 4x110, and 4x114.3

I don't believe I've ever known another vehicle to have 4x120

old rx's are badass. HOWEVEr, that rotary is foreign and scares me. Wife wanted an rx8, and I squashed that with a quickness.

Sonic Blue 04 Mustang GT
Just minor bolt ons, intake, mac LT's, prochamber, flowmasters, CMR tune, anthracite fr500s deep dish rears, staggered setup 275front/315 rear. Small cosmetic mods.
Plan to keep it n/a, I would like to do a 4v swap one day and maybe a stroker kit.
Also would like to do a cobra decklid swap, cobra painted mirrors swap, and a 2.5" cowl hood and I'll be done with the cosmetics. Don't plan on being a fobra, this car will never see a cobra badge.

Not much but it's what I wanted when I bought it.







Pics are huge, sorry o.o ..stupid iphone.

It's nice to see a mustang with tasteful mods. Having several friends with a variety of late model stangs I would suggest starting with a Cobra if you want a 4v. The cost and the amount of work it requires to swap one isn't worth it. In the end you still have a GT and you will get GT money for it. My friend Gary built the highest dynoing blown 2v GT in known existence. It was built by MPH in Atlanta. It had a Kenne Bell 2.8H with the MPH inlet, a built bottom end and hand ported heads (both done by MPH). It made 840whp with a 50 shot of nitrous to cool the intake charge. It was a very tastefully done extremely fast car. No expense was spared. He ended up selling it for $25k when he got rid of it. He bought the car new in 02 and had nearly $60,000 in it. At the same time he sold his 04 Cobra vert that was nearly stock. It had a 2.6L KB and a JLT CAI. It was lowered on FRPP springs with chrome FR500's. Stock manifolds, Bassani X and Borla stingers. He sold it for $24,000.

Save yourself some money and get a Cobra if you go that far with it.
