    Clutch Replacement Questions

    I have a lightweight flywheel waiting to go on when I get my clutch. They are definitely worth it. It's not hard to get used to the engine response and you'll definitely notice the improvement in acceleration. I bought a McLeod aluminium flywheel and I'm hoping to save up for an Exedy Mach...

    Bilsteins HDs now or Koni yellows later

    Both were recommended to me by an msr driving instructor at an event. Question is how serious are you with the driving. Do you want a custom setup for every condition or event or do you want a good setup you don't have to worry about?

    Anyone put a GT 500 Spolier on a 2010 GT ?

    If it is like the 05-09s it's all a matter of undoing the bolts and working the 3M tape loose. It's not too terribly hard but it is awfully time consuming. I noticed that the spoilerstore on ebay (which is where myself and many others have gotten their prepainted GT500 spoilers) carries the...

    Need help with filling up.

    My car is also an 07 and it does not like to be refueled at times. Looks retarded as hell but the only way to fix the problem is to turn the fuel nozzle upside down ( with the trigger facing upward) and when the flow starts working slowly rotate it back to the regular position. Works every...

    bumper cover from new take off parts? Is it worth it

    +1 they are cost effective replacement if you're interested in the stock look. There may be a chance though that during shipping the clearcoat may crack if mishandled but complaints of that have been few so far. Still some clear is not the same thing as having to fixed a badly dented or...

    Solo or Autocross

    The best way other then crack open the rulebook is to spectate an event. I run my car with the BMW CCA classes and I see plenty of convertibles (M3's, S2000s, Boxsters, Mini Coopers, and Miatas) that don't run a cage.

    how close are mid muffler systems to...

    I agree. The shape and size of the combustion chamber plus the intake and exhaust design are all contributing factors to how a car sounds, in short a 2V cylinder head will give you the sound that the SN95s are known for. This design plus firing order is what gives the "beat" of the sound...

    2011 Shelby GT500 teaser video

    Now that's interesting. I guess not only did they drop some weight from the front by planting the aluminium block 5.4L in the engine compartment, but they actually gave it some degree of a decent suspension to boot. Look at how the car transitions well between acceleration/braking and...

    Switching to Synthetic-----When???

    +1 a definite answer is about as elusive as a snipe, That said i did my own oil change at 5000K miles and never turned back. So I guess at the first oil change I did mine. In my old car that had 50K miles when I bought it I did it then.

    How much insurance?

    I wonder how much the insurance rates will change on the 2011 GT. The power hike should make it more pricy but it is also a safer car with 5 star crash ratings on all the sides now that ought to count for something.

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    Perhaps maybe make the new BOSS 302 (street version) an SVT only model and the GT500 or some type of Shelby GT a Shelby? I'm not so sure I understand what the question is here. To the best of my knowledge I thought SVT was the main engineering and design force behind the 07+ GT500s with...

    The Shelby GT350 returns to mark its 45th Anniversary

    Well I think this car has potential looks wise, a couple of things here and there could be polished and it would be a looker but as is it reminds me a bit of a rough draft of the Cervini Stalker. I don't think its hideous but I don't particularly like it either. That said 70K dollars?!? That's...

    Where to find 20 inch 5 spoke rims and tire for our cars???

    I'm not sure why these aren't pushed as much but I had to dig around to find the link. Mustang S Style Extreme - Comparable to 2009 Saleen Wheel I like these better then the SN95 style Saleens.

    2011 Ford Mustang Pricing Trickles Out

    I'm a bit disappointed with the price hikes. Sure you're getting more engine for your money but I think we're forgetting that the Mustang has always been one of those cars where less is really more for some things. It has been suggested before that maybe they ought to consider bringing back...

    '09 GT Stock Air Intake with drop-in K&N

    Other then a bit of extra sound from opening your box up a bit I don't think you'll get much of a performance bump until you get a CAI with a tune.
