    spline 31 !!!??

    Under street conditions, with non-sticky tires and without hard launches, you have no need for 31 spline axles. Personally, unless / until I go blown, I'll keep running my 28's till they break. Then again, I'm still under roadside assistance, so the tow is free.. :D I do agree that if...

    Did some racing

    That's all I do.. For the 1-2 shift I hook the ends of my first three fingers over the front of the shifter and just flip it back. For the 2-3 a place the ball of my hand (the meaty part just below the fingers, behind the knucles) on the back of the handle and just push it straight forward. I...

    Where To Buy Gears

    I bought mine from a guy off DFWStangs here locally.. FRPP's $100 new in the box. :nice: He bought them then later decided on 4.10's before installing them.

    Is it safe to shift a stock GT @ high rpms?

    Hell, I rarely see it with 3:73's :rolleyes: Around town I usually run up to about 3k but not at WOT. On the track it doesn't get below about 4200, and only that low because that's where I launch :D .

    Supercharger hurts a GT??

    Driving will hurt you car.. Better garage it! :D Seriously.. If you want more power, then it is worth it. If you would like a longer engine life and are happy with the power, leave it alone.

    For those who think it's Dark Shadow GRAY

    I agree! :nice: BTW..

    tires=nitto? seats=??

    My Nitto's hook pretty well at the track as long as prep is decent. I still have stock tires on the front.. IMO, if you're not running at the track don't waste your money on dr's.

    Two big positive with the SLP. You can get the straight through pipes in addition to the cats and swap them out when you want. If you decide to upgrade to long tube headers you can take off a section of the SLP's and they will bolt right on.

    Error Code P0356--Help!!!

    Got this from the sticky above.. P0356 Ignition Coil Primary circuit malfunction. P1000 OBD-II Monitor Testing Incomplete. What they mean? Couldn't tell you. :shrug: Edit: Duh.. You already knew that. Sorry.. :rolleyes:

    Speedo issue

    Or buy a hand held tuner (like the Predator or Xcal) which can adjust for gear changes, tire size, etc.. Plus you get the other benefits such as tuning (duh), mil eliminators, shift point and pressure adjustments (auto), data logging, diagnostic code reading, etc.. Well worth the $350.. :nice:

    Gears FINALLY.........................................

    Bear with me here but this is my understanding. When you go around a corner your inside wheel spins at a slightly slower rate the outside (the radius of the turn is larger for that wheel therefore it is traveling farther and faster, think "crack the whip"). That is one of the the benefits of the...

    guys with 04 gt 5spds any problems since u had the car?

    Right.. I always hear it at drive thru's or when next to the median barrier on the highway with the windows down.. Mine has gotten progressively worse with each launch at the track.. Didn't start until I started going to the track.. Wonder what caused it? :D

    More like slow to not quite as slow.. :rlaugh: Seriously though, the gears help and installation shouldn't be too bad. Less than the cost of the gears themselves at least. Just make sure you go to someone that has done plenty of them. Even better, get referrals.

    guys with 04 gt 5spds any problems since u had the car?

    I haven't had the "creek" but do have what you call the "whine".. When the clutch pedal is out (engaged) noise, when in (disengaged) nothing. For me it's been more of a sqeaking, and I've been told that it is most likely the throw out bearing. I have yet to take it in.

    6 psi KB s/c

    Rather than graduating college and buying a $40k+ car right off the bat you should think about buying a house first.. Nothing is more pitiful than a person living in an apartment with a car equal to their annual salary. :D Then you also have a garage in which to work on your car! Then you...

    nx 125 wet shot!!!

    As far as the "boom-bitch" factor I think a good tune and proper use will usually avoid that but yeah, you never know. It's just like axles.. Some guys run slicks all day long and never have a problem, others break them first time out. I would say that if you're racing or otherwise modding...
