    Turbo Setups and Suspension

    For the people who have done the single turbo and TT setup's or have seen... does it pretty much require to have the Tubular K-member and control arms to even start to fabricate a setup for the clearances? I was also wondering how the Qa-1 component's were for quality and workability?? I know...

    STRUT wont reach spindle

    Loosen up the control arm bolts themselves to allow the control arm move more freely there. I had to do that myself to get the arm to have more movement. That should give you the movement you need to get it connected.

    BALL JOINT PART NUMBER

    Either oem or Moog are going to be your best bet. I'm not a big fan of trw anymore due to a lot of their products don't seem to work for different cars even though it says it should. Moog I haven't had a problem with so far.

    New Jersey Front License Plates

    I honestly think you'd be better off with not having the plate in the car or zip tied up beings it's not "secure" to the vehicle. Some reach in break the window and take the plate and put it on their vehicle. If I were you I'd just drive around with the one on the rear and not have it in the...

    Recommended tire air pressure for 275/40/17's & 315/35/17's?

    Well if your doing the Sumitomo htr z tires... I'd probably start off with around 32psi and see how it feels to ya there. The more air you have in the tires the firmer they are going to be and spin a little easier in the rear with more air pressure. I think 32psi cold would give you a good...

    Recommended tire air pressure for 275/40/17's & 315/35/17's?

    After selling tires for the last 3 years and working with them.... and with my own car... 97 GT, ford recommends 30psi cold... I've kept 35 psi cold since I've gone though the 1st set and I'm on my 2nd set here. All have worn dead even across with no unusal wear. The guys that have worked in the...

    Buying a transmission

    for the t56 out of the 03-04 cobra it states you need an electronic speedometer. Well in 97 it's the mechanical speedo... so is it possible to get that to work and what is involved with getting that switched?

    Front Sway bar tire rub

    Tell me about it.... I'm stumped as to why in the world it's rubbing. If I'm able too I'll try to see if I can get my gf's camera and take a quick little video and show how much the tire is hitting/rubbing on the sway bar. There's only one way a front sway bar can attach to a vehicle...

    Front Sway bar tire rub

    I'm running the stock 17x8 split 5 spoke wheels with a 255/45/17 falken 452 for the rubber. The thing that bothers me here is if I were to go to a 9" wide wheel I think I'd have a lot more rubbing/hitting. I'm stumped to why I'm rubbing so much on the sway bar.

    Front Sway bar tire rub

    I really never noticed it until one of my control arm bushings on the front started to pop out and allowing the tire to move just enough on about full turn to hit the back of the arm and rub the tire on the sway bar. Well I've replaced the control arms with with 03 cobra arms and I currently...

    Buying a transmission

    Ok, from what I gather here the t-45/tr-3650 are about the same, more of a preference here. I have a 97 GT with the t-45, and a Speed cal to correct for the gears. A couple different questions arise for me. 1.)If I did do a tranny swap am I going to have to do anything special for keeping...

    I know this has been Beat to death, but I'm still confused..

    The one thing I've wondered reading though the posts here are.... is the vehicle being tuned by yourself there and a shop doing it relatively close?? Can't the tune be affected by the change in sea level and how dense the air is going from one type of setting to the next??? Like taking a car...

    4.6 Dohc Starting Point

    I was wondering if anyone had an idea on where to start to look for a 4v motor or where to start buying parts needed to get one built. I have a 97GT with about 97,000 miles on it and I think I'm starting to burn just a little bit of oil. So in the mean time.... I was going to look at finding...

    Headers & Oil Use

    I've had my 97 GT since 72k miles and never used any oil as long as I've had it for the last 3 years. Well I changed the oil after I took it out from the winter.. and a couple months later I put full bassani midlengths, o/r X and catback on my car. Since I put them on I've put about 2-3k miles...

    Rack and Pinion

    On my 97 Gt here I'm starting to lose power steering fluid and it seems to be coming outta the rack into the inner tie rods boots. Can you just replace the seals or do you have to do the whole rack??? Also is there an upgrade going to a different rack that would work for the vehicle at all??
