    HAHA... that's crazy. I just found your site last night when I was looking for pics of a Mineral Grey Mach 1 so I could see how my GT would look with a shaker. I can't remember if MG Mach's even exist or not, but anyways... I got stuck on your site for at least an hour. Your car looks killer, but I'm kinda looking away from the shaker now seeing how much work it requires with the CDC/Mach hood combo. I know I don't want that stupid applique on there. Keep up the good work!

    They don't make an MG mach. Closest to it would be DSG like mine. I still have my hood sitting on a shelf.... I think the only thing I have missing/ would be the top part of the shaker. I can get the lower part though.
    03 DSG MACH - TT - Not fast enough
    03 OW MACH - Slower than above
    11 RR GT/CS - Slower than both of the above

    Yeah, I wasn't thinking so but I thought I read somewhere that they only made them one year or something. PM me details of what you're talking about, since it's not related to this thread.
    Here is my thread about it: http://www.lonestarstangs.com/forum/...its-30269.html

    Thanks again for the compliments guys...

    As far as the shaker system on my car, it's actually a Mach 1 hood with a Mach 1 Shaker system, no CDC parts at all. The brackets were made by KarKraft (but I don't think they make them anymore). It really wasn't a lot of work at all. The shaker took about an hour to install (taking my time), and the hood was just 4 bolts of course.

    If you need any help w/ anything, let me know!! Also if any of you guys have any write-ups I could throw up on the site, let me know as well!

    Yeah, if I had the Mach setup with said brackets, I know it would be easy compared to the writeup on your site. But unless someone decides to sell everything all together as a set, I'm kinda SOL and I gotta cut and modify stuff.

    A guy I am helping out on one of the other boards is supposedly having somebody fabricate up some brackets for him, and some to sell. I took a bunch of pictures and got some measurements for him, so if it all works out, I'll let you know.

    Also, on the rear brake pad write up the person completely left out the fact that the rear calipers have the piston that has to be screwed back in to clear the new pads. It's can't just be pushed back in with a C clamp. That's a major thing that got left out.
