    Ford to report record losses?

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070124/ap_on_bi_ge/earns_ford_outlook (Sorry if this is a repost) These scare-mongers just don't understand EXCLUSIVITY! They just don't get the pleasure we all get from knowing that the dealers are looking out for Ford, and us, by keeping product unsold on...

    Anyone installed stripes themselves?

    I'm giving up on trying to find a local (Corona, CA) shop to do this for a reasonable price, and am contemplating doing it myself. Has anyone else done this, and if so, could they throw together an "idiots guide"? I've never put any kind of decal/vinyl on a car, so don't be afraid to put in...

    HELP - Bolt found in the driver-side footwell!!!

    Does anyone have, or can anyone get, a photo of where the gas pedal is hooked up to the back side of the footwell? I found a bolt in my footwell this morning. I think I know where it goes, but want to check. I can see the foot of three bolts, and there's a hole (just to the left of where the...

    Where to get a new spare to accomodate my new brakes?

    Anyone know where to buy an oversized spare (got to fit my new 14" rotors)? I did a search, but nothing turned up (I thought that the big-brake was a common upgrade). I looked up American Tire and Tirerack, but couldn't see an obvious link to buying spares. Cheers, all...

    Mod'd Red 05(+) on the 55 at midnight.

    If the guy with the blown GT who was revving and gunning it alongside me on the 55 freeway in SoCal last night is in here, two sleeping toddlers in the back of the car (we were on our way to pick mom up from work) meant all you were getting outta me was a steady 70mph. Sorry man - next time...

    ST Motorsports

    'k, so I've seen the posts in various forums (forii?) on the dyno-day at ST, and would like a little more info on what kind of a shop "ST Motorpsorts" is, and what they offer. Xmas is haulin' A and getting ever larger in the rear-view, and I may have some $ to play with, but trying to find a...

    Damaged Rims? LA area repairer.

    I remember a few threads a while back asking about where to get damaged rims fixed. Well, I got a flat a few weeks back and put a fairly bad flat spot on my rim. After much searching, found these guys in Baldwin Park, CA - http://www.wheelsusainc.com/ Their website is kinda plain (I think...

    JBA Headers installed, car idled ROUGH

    Anyone else have this problem (with ANY replacement headers)? I just bumped the idle up to 750 and it was fine after that. I'm guessing that the combination of the hi-flo xpipe and JBA's deepened the exhaust tone enough to set of some low-frequency vibrating.

    FRPP Headers not CA smog exempt

    Dropped the car and my new FRPP shorty headers off and 15 minutes later get a call - the dealer won't install 'em cos they're not smog exempt in CA:( He says the JBA ones are:) Guess what I told him to do...:cheers: Everything happens for a reason!

    Site design - banner ad's killing "Search"

    I dunno if it's just me, but when I try to use the "Search" button on the nav bar, the search window opens up behind whatever banner ad is below it. Serves me right for trying to use the Search tool, I suppose...

    Roushcharger warranty psi limit = 6lbs

    A comment over in Talk prompted me to go check this out. Something to be mindful of if Roush's warranty is a factor in your blower choice. They say their unit is good to 15lbs, and even sell a kit to upgrade to 8lbs, but specifically state that the kit will void your engine warranty. Still...

    Predator use question - diagnostics

    I did a search, but didn't see owt on this - I am almost done doing exhaust mods (X pipe, headers, mufflers) and will be putting the C&L mass air intake along with a new tb this w/e and want to make sure that these breathing aids do not jack my a/f ratios. I will, of course, be installing...

    CAI (side bar to current CAI thread) - Tech please!

    The current CAI debate is fairly heated and filled with subjectives, but I'd like to hear from pure tech people who can give some documented hard data on what a CAI will/will not give you. I'm laying plans to get my car blown soon, but am hugely interested in this debate, and it seems that a...

    Roush conversion - pics

    Got the car back Saturday and took some pics. I posted them on TMS, but this site was down, so didn't get them in here. For some reason, when I download the pics from TMS to post them here, they come out small and crappy? I'm up in SF for work right now and the original pics are on my pc at...

    Vegas - who's going, from where? Any convoys planned?

    Has anyone even read the sticky? Excon already said he can't, so that takes some of the shine off for me, but a few cocktails by the pool and I'll probably get over it. Ex, let me know if you want me to put down some bets for you - you can just mail me cash (hey, you can trust me!). Would...

    Road and Track Mustang issue - Goat infiltrator!

    Page 64 of April's R&T, right smack dab in the middle of the Mustang reviews, there's the ad for the 05 GTO. Sneaky b@$tards! Funny thing is, though, the ad mentions the 4.6 second 0-60 time in the midst of an article where the writers cannot quit mentioning the stock GT's 4.9 second 0-60...
