    what modds do i need to get my s197 to run 13.0s

    Like them man said it doesn't take much for these cars to go fast with a few mods. A lightweight driveshaft would also cut your time down a little, maybe some UDPs and you'll definitely go in the 12s on top of what Sparta has. Welcome!

    Rear ended...

    You could always go to the dealership and get one of those arm/leg appraisals and turn around and buy a rear bumper for New Takeoff and pocket the rest for whatever :)

    Rear ended...

    Look at it this way... first and foremost everyone is ok Second thing you now have an excuse to upgrade (if you like) the looks of your car to a GT, CS or GT500.

    Put some vids up on youtube of the 5.0 with magnaflow muffler deletes, as promised

    Interesting I thought this thing was pretty raw sounding that it made the 4.6L sound like a refined European car by comparison.

    OWNed in the parking lot

    Lol that's hard parking. That cavalier with bondo/primer two spots over is hilarious in the context.

    Am I the only one that caught that or are either the stock tires sorry or the regular brakes leaps and bounds better?

    OWNed in the parking lot

    The Murcielago is a nice car but unfortunately like most "Supercars" they don't do terribly well at the track against lighter and more nible track oriented machines. In the FIA-GT championship the only one of those that was running (reiter engineering I believe) had a carbon fiber body and...

    What is the best year to buy from 2005-09?

    The newer the better especially with the 09's revised cylinder heads BUT... some mods are either not available for 09s or at least not emissions legal because of the revisions so that may factor into your decision.

    Parts Guy Question, Power Steering 5.4 and 4.6

    NICE!!! :rlaugh: The only thing I can suggest is perhaps to install a PS cooler. A lot of roadracers put those up there with getting an oil cooler. As a side benefit adding a little extra fluid to the system because of the cooler may help quiet things down a little as well as keeping...

    $99 per wheel! Godspeed Omega Anthracite Deep Dish

    No I think these are all SN95 fitments. I wonder if they'll have a similar discount for the S197s.

    Aluminum Driveshaft question

    I think (limited understanding of subject) that you would need to check and adjust your pinion if your car is lowered more then a 1 inch. At that point it makes no difference whether you got a DS with an adapter or with a pinion for them and for that you need adjustable control arms in the...

    My S-197 ( Red Stallion )

    I want to guess that's a Steeda hood... right?

    My S-197 ( Red Stallion )

    Very nice car! Somehow the CDC + Black Canvas Top + Rear black Spoiler + blackout panel looks great! Perhaps maybe a black rocker stripe down the center of the car and a California Special rear bumper with the diffuser in black would probably further enhance the black/red motif. Either way...

    Disappointed with tunes

    E-mail tunes are based more or less on a set of parameters which the tuning shop normally sees like gasoline type, purity, octane, all the way to weather, atmospheric pressure of the general area where they conduct their business. Pinging will usually happen if there are significant...

    How do you make your loved ones understand...

    LOL tell him that the new 5.0 is going to get WAY BETTER GAS MILEAGE then your car that'll do it :) If that doesn't work resort to it's roomier, And if that doesn't work either mention the 5 star crash rating all around If that doesn't work still you're dealing with a major ass fuddy...

    How do you make your loved ones understand...

    Break a deal, FACE THE WHEEL!!! I have been waiting forever to say that to someone :D Speaking for experience I am going to have to half-ass agree with that. I will NEVER buy another domestic car brand new again especially a Mustang which are a dime a dozen. I hate to say this but too...

    Chrome bubble on wheel, warranty?

    Sorry to hear that, here in Houston there's an excellent wheel repair and refinishing shop that could have fixed that for really cheap with a day's turnaround. You should look into good wheel repair/refinish shops in your area they can save you a lot of money if you get a good one.
