    Front Brake Dust Shields

    I had to change my spindle. Anyone know where to get those rivets that hold in the dust shield? I went to like 3 dealers and they all had no idea what I was talking about. Is it safe to nut and bolt the dust shields or do I need to use rivets? I was told to use rivets so they shear in the event...

    Spindle / Wheel Hub Replacement

    My car hit a curb about a year and I've been having some vibration issues ever since not to mention I couldn't get the camber set perfect on one side so it was suggested I replace the spindle / wheel bearings as I may have bent the spindle a little bit. I went ahead and bought a new spindle...

    Ordering gauges, quick question

    Hey guys, I'm picking up autometer phantom oil pressure and water temp gauges. I also need a 3rd gauge to fill in the last hole on the pillar. I was probably going to get a trans temp gauge but I was wondering if I need anything else to install this gauge? Do I need to tap the pan for the trans...

    Help me choose a midpipe for MagnaPacks

    I'm going to order a MagnaPack setup today and also want to get a midpipe. Which midpipe should I go with? :) It will be catted because I heard it gets too raspy with an O/R pipe w/ the packs (lack of backpressure). I've been looking at the MRT Catted H-Pipe and the Magnaflow Catted X-Pipe...

    Q about Autometer Gauges

    Going to pick up an Oil Pressure gauge and Water temp gauge and an A-Pillar pod. Going to get the 3 gauge pod and I'm looking for suggestions for a 3rd gauge. I don't really need fuel pressure right now. A/F is useless because I'll get a wideband in the future. Is trans temp useful since I...

    Replacing Oil Pressure Switch

    Does the oil pressure switch just screw out and I screw new one in and reconnect wire? Do I need to drain the oil out of the car before I change this? If so, I'll wait till I change my oil again before I do it. Do I need to torque it down to certain specs or just tighten it down hard? (Yes I'm a...

    Low Oil Pressure after Oil Change

    When I cold start the car, the oil pressure will drop off from normal to low (according to dummy gauge) and sit there until I rev the car up a bit. Then it levels out and as the revs fall, pressure drops again. If I take the car around the block and it starts to warm up, the pressure will move...

    Possible Problem after Oil Change

    Hey guys, I got my 01 gt @ 22k miles and finally dumped the oil @ 23k to change out with Mobil 1 5w-30 synth. I replaced the filter with the motorcraft one. First problem, the oil gauge jumps from low to normal every few seconds when I cold start the car after it's been sitting for more than...

    Question about UDPs and Amp

    I have a pretty hard hitting setup but it makes my headlights and gauge lights flicker when I crank it up around 30% volume and higher (I usually don't drive with it at that volume though). I was planning on adding a capacitor later on to help out, but would adding underdrive pullies on this...

    Shops in Jersey for Jerry Mod and 4.10 gears?

    Hey guys, just got my 01 auto GT w/ 20k miles last week. Since I don't have the cash for boost right now, the consensus seems to be to go with motive or frpp 4.10 gears and the jerry mod (plus b&m tranny cooler). This car is my daily driver and needs to be reliable and get me back and forth to...
