    Who's moddin up for the '09 slowmaro

    There seems to be a lot of illogical bitterness and angst concerning the new Camaro from certain quarters. I've never really understood it. Maybe it was years of being blown into the weeds by LT1 and LS1 Camaros past, maybe it's cubic capacity envy, maybe it's a simmering resentment that it took...

    Having problems with my BMR LCA

    They have to be greased and they have to be tightened with the weight of the car on the wheels.

    whipple vs kenne bell vs eaton

    Are you sure you're just not prevaricating for no good reason? The reason I ask is that I live in the UK and sold a C5 Z06 and bought the Mustang and fitted a Vortech chargecooled supercharger rated at 462hp and fitted D-Specs and Roush springs. My friend still has his C5 Z06 and the two cars...

    Want to go fast without supercharger

    I've had my 2005 Mustang for 2 years having sold my 1998 Camaro Z28 and 2002 Corvette Z06. I have to agree that supercharging is the way to go. I too have a Vortech with intercooler that is rated at 462hp. It's by far the cheapest way to go. As another poster has said, you'd never know it was...

    GT500 Spoiler or Spoiler Delete?

    I went for the Spoiler Store painted GT500 spoiler because at the price, it would have been stupid not to. I had the stock spoiler off for a day and almost warmed to the no spoiler look but for my money, it looks too much like a saloon to pull it off from most angles. Have a look here for my...

    My new Christmas gift has arrived...[pics]

    If you listen to Top Gear, your car has 500hp! I believe it's called artistioc lie-cence. Anyway, great car! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=eJfRdz_TH0E

    My Christmas Present

    What's old? The '85 Vette only put out 235hp and it was only 250 up to '92 when the 300hp LT1 waltzed along. Just curious.

    What Are These Things?

    They're memory-erasing lasers, installed so that when you think you have a warranty problem, it zaps you between the eyes. Don't get too close...oh, too late

    Corsa Exhaust

    Yes, I should say that as mine is supercharged, they weren't loud enough where they needed to be loud ie when I could hear them. They are good on WOT but a bit tame in the lower reaches. I actually had a set of mufflers custom-made and they are much lighter than the Corsas and practically zero...

    need help with gt500 spoiler install

    Test fit it with the tape in place and it's obvious. I'm afraid that like most things, you have to take great care. I would suggest two people, one either end and two small blocks of something to keep the spoiler off the decklid. Feed the two bolts into the spoiler so you have it roughly...

    My Christmas Present

    Well done. He must have been an extraordinarily bad driver though...

    Corsa Exhaust

    I found the Corsas too quiet although they don't drone at all and are quality items but they weigh a ton.

    Why is it legal?

    Cars contribute a gnat's feeler to global warming. The planet is heating up. Experts are paid by governments who want to tax you. You need to get over this "cars cause global warming" idea because they don't. The evidence for this is simple and straightforward. If every car in the UK was...

    2008 GT500KR

    I know they're not comparable in style or genre (to head that one off at the pass)but this is going to make the KR look a bit limp with 620hp under the hood especially if it ends up costing less:

    Steeda G Trac Brace Instructions?

    Agent 47 Shifter Arm + install writeup

    Looks plasticky to me and again, the Hurst is aesthetically miles ahead. I don't like the nbanana boot and I don't care for the giant 47 cut into the side. I'm all for better parts but not the free advertising they seem to come with.

    What Ever Happened to the Automatic Shifter

    Before MBA Billet bit the dust, they made a fantastic push-down shifter knob for my Z28. I'd say this was the single most satisfying and effective mod I ever made to that car. You could stop and seamlessly shift into reverse and also use the box like a manual. Simple but effective:

    Ordered Shifter today!

    What size is the thread on the Hurst? I have just replaced the boot with a leather boot from Redline but I quite like the trim. Where is that from? I also found this site which has color-matched shift knobs: www.grabberpony.com
