    Roush My run in with a semi... I lost

    Nope, no hemi. When they said they only had a 300 available the SRT-8 popped in my head for second but then reality came back in. So I told the guy behind the counter to hook me up with one sitting on 22's, tight sound system and a PS2, but they wouldn't go for it. Now I know why they call...

    Roush My run in with a semi... I lost

    Thanks Todd. Yeah, I'm looking forward to get it back on the road again. Last I heard the CHP had traced the plate on the trailer to Farm Fresh Marketing in Idaho and they were going to talk to the driver of the truck. My insurance company is investigating it still but hopefully this company...

    Roush How much does an accident depreciate a Saleen?

    Thank you for the response. I think my car is collectable or at least rare. Its an E. 54 produced in 2002 and less then 100 new edge E's exist. There are fewer E cars then S351 and Saleen Cobras, althought that might change with the new E cars being produced. And while the E isn't viewed in the...

    Roush Chicane intercooler

    I have the intercooler and it was 1200 with install at Chicane. It netted me 50hp at the wheels but my car was pinging bad back then and they actually took timing out of it after the install. Can't wait to get it back on a dyno now that the engines rebuilt.

    Roush How much does an accident depreciate a Saleen?

    Nice, thank you. This is to impress upon the other guy's insurance company that my car has loss value due to his carelessness. I'm not selling the car anytime soon but should I choose to I shouldn't have to take the financial hit, they should. Thanks again.

    Roush How much does an accident depreciate a Saleen?

    So my car is in the shop getting repaired and tomorrow I have to go file an SR1 with the state of California DMV to report the accident with them. It dawned on me that any future potential buyer will run a carfax against my VIN and see that it was in a accident and repaired, not that I wouldn't...

    Roush Shifter question

    The shifter is pretty easy to swap out and no special tools are required. Just have some form a gasket available to seal it up and be careful not to tear the rubber boot that covers it. Shouldn't take more then 30 minutes to do. Not sure about the belt but pep boys should be able to measure...

    Roush My run in with a semi... I lost

    Thanks everyone. The car is easily repairable and no one was hurt, and I pretty much get a new paint job too since the damage is along both sides and the hood. Pretty much the only thing they won't touch is the roof. Oh, and two new front wheels and a new tire. Yay! Marcus, the car was dropped...

    Roush My run in with a semi... I lost

    So last night my dad and I finish the rebuild of my car. What a hell of a project. In hindsight it would have been easier and maybe less expensive to have someone else do it but I learned a hell of a lot and all in all it was a great experience. The car is now quiet, no more annoying diesel...

    Roush Tire problem

    He didn't, he kept driving. My parents were behind me and saw the whole thing and followed the guy but he just ignored them. They only got the plate to the trailer though and the CHP doesn't think it will do much good since they change trailers so often. We'll see. The whole thing just sucks and...

    Roush Tire problem

    I'll post a separate thread on this later today but the car is back together. We just finished it last night. It sounds great but I think I have a sensor or vacuum issue I need to resolve yet. It ran great for an hour and then started getting power surges and a weird idol. I'll find it. The...

    Roush Thought I had 3.27, think I really have 3.08

    Car looks great. That is bright red. See, those are the quality of picture that guy needed when he was trying to sell it on eBay. But that's good for you he didn't. The 02 E cars came standard with 3.08's. They went to 3.55 standard in 03.

    Roush Tire problem

    I'm running the BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KD's on my car and they hook up extremely well and with them I was able to win the autocross event at the Saleen show last year so cornering is excellent as well. Plus they run a little wider then most tires and look great to boot. Last month though I found...

    Roush Traction Control

    Probably not possible without replacing the ECU and other electronics on the car.

    Roush Engine on the E car

    Wow, so many questions. :) Mark, yes the car was pinging horribly. I had it tuned three times by Steve at Powertrain Dynamics and each time it he had to shut it down on the first pull because of it. Recently it was bad enough that I could hear it and I'm deaf from six years of dejaying. The...

    Roush Engine on the E car

    If I spent any more money on this project my wife would have me balls deep in a vise. :rlaugh: But I know what you mean. The suspension is the next project but maybe I'll revisit the heads after that.

    Roush Engine on the E car

    I've torn my car down, had the block checked out and rehoned, and the heads rebuilt. There was no damage to the pistons, rings, etc., nothing visible anyway. So I had the heads rebuilt in case it was a weak spring or something allowing oil to get into the cylinder and causing the pinging, oil...

    Roush E-Bay Auction for 01-001 Does that car look right?
