    Steeda hood Q's

    Anyone here who has the steeda hood, did you test fit it yourself before having it painted. I only ask because I did mine and am having trouble making it fit. The best I could do is a nice even gap between the fender and hood on the passengers side, and a wide gap up front tapering down to...

    You never said anything about autox in this post. Right here you make it sound like you are driving around town at 4-5kRPM's. YOU'RE the one that came back with an attitude, so YOU need to chill out. You state in a later post that you're a 48 yr old. So far YOU'RE the one acting like a...

    Trying to fix my soggy gas peddel

    http://forums.modulardepot.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=443&highlight=pedal+spacer Ya need to check out this old thread from MD. They have a machined aluminum spacer that fits wonderfully. No cable flex, so no chance of cable stress and breakage. I think now you have to call MD for the...

    dynamat

    I lined almost all of my trunk with dynamat extreme and it helped a little with the road noise. I noticed that I could hear the radio better and there wasn't the usual road drone from the trunk area after putting it in. Exhaust was a little quieter in the car, but not much.

    Driving around with your windows down...

    ... and the vent off, does anyone else's car feel like the heater is on? Whenever I drive around on a cool evening and want the windows down, I can feel heat coming from under the dash. Does anyone else's car do this? :shrug:

    Is my CC plate screwed up right from the box?

    I would say probably not. You can't move that bearing with your fingers. Try holding it down and taking an extension for a ratchet, put it in the hole and try to move it then. If that won't fit, then try a long screwdriver. If it moves back then it should be fine. You'll have to do the same...

    Autometer Gauges

    I'll see about getting some pix up sometime. Just bought a house so I'm kinda short on time right now moving. As far as the brightness, I was thinking of trying to wire in a resistor to kick the voltage down some more, but I would have to figure out what one to use and it isn't really all...

    Autometer Gauges

    Close enough that I couldn't tell a difference. Cruising with the speedo at 60 mph, 1 mile took 1 minute.

    Autometer Gauges

    They look great and I've had no problems out of them. The only thing I don't like about them is if you are driving at night in the country or somewhere there is not a lot of ambient light, they are brighter than $hi* on the lowest setting. It does get a little annoying, but if you're in the...

    Is that supposed to be split down the middle or is that a demo intake? :shrug:

    Changing 5-speed Tranny Oil

    I don't remember how much I used, though 3-4 quarts sounds about right. Filling thru the shifter sounds a lot easier than trying to mess with pumping the fluid into the hole on the side of the tranny. That fill plug is not the easiest thing to get to. I had mine on a lift when changing, so...

    Changing 5-speed Tranny Oil

    I just did this and used Mobil 1 ATF. Whatever you use make sure it meets MERCON specs. Don't use fluid that says it meets MERCON V.

    100 miles to a 1/4 tank of gas.

    Like someone said before. The first 1/4 lasts longer than the rest. I get 100 or pretty close the first 1/4 and then it goes pretty fast after that. Of course this is city driving and a good dose of right foot sometimes. :D On the highway going from east NC to TN, I'll fill up b4 getting on...

    Oil filter magnets

    Wouldn't waste my money on it. Any quality filter that you put on your car will take care of anything that will cause damage. Just think about how many cars don't have these and have plenty of miles on them. If you're engine is putting that much iron into the oil for the magnets to make any...

    2004 GT's

    Yes, my magnaflows came stock :rolleyes: Seriously, the stock exhaust lasted the trip home from the dealer. I don't think there was a gt badge to begin with. The dealer "ad" sticker was put on where the gt was supposed to be. Maybe the dealer pulled off the badge for their sticker, but I...

    2004 GT's

    All of you '04 GT owners. Does your car have the "GT" badge on the trunk lid? All the one's I've seen have them but mine doesn't. I got the 40th badges on the side like everyone else, but no "GT" on the trunk. Definately have a "GT" model cause both the paperwork from Ford and the VIN...
