    Need Suspension Help

    I bought the springs from Gwinnett Place Ford. The springs have been on the car a month and a half, plenty of time for them to settle. It only takes a couple of weeks (if that) for springs to settle. I have contacted Ford directly and they said the FRPP K springs advertise up to 1.5" not...

    Need Suspension Help

    I hope this is the right place for this. As my question is more technical, than talk. Anyway, I have FRPP K springs on my 05 GT. I did not receive the advertised 1.5" drop, from the springs. The result was more like 1". I installed the springs correctly, and there are/were no isolators on...

    New Mods (2005 GT)

    As far as the Power Department goes, I am going with a Procharger setup. Uncle Sam needs to hurry up with my money! I was mainly asking about looks. A couple of things that I am thinking about now are; one removing the K springs and taking out 1/4 to 1/2 a coil to drop the car a little...

    18x9's what tire size??

    On my car I went with the following tire setup. 18*9 FR500: 265/35/18 18*10 FR500: 285/35/18 With these tire sizes I only have two complaints. The ride is about 50% more harsh than with the "off road" tires that come with S197's. My second complaint is that even after lowering the car...

    re-clearcoating my fanblades after painting them

    I have done the exact same thing before. It took some "Mineral Spirits", and ALOT of elbow grease to remove the paint/primer ( I did both to mine). After I removed the paint/primer, I shot a little clear on the wheel to see if the "scuffs" would show through and indeed they did. I then "wet...

    One pic of the new wheels on the car...

    Poopdawg, after getting window tint, might I suggest a CDC Chin spoiler in black. That would look sick on your car.

    FRPP K Springs vs Eiback Pro Kit

    FRPP K springs are pretty much the same thing as the eibach Pro Kit. Same product for less money, I vote K springs. Hey, its what I did (insert peer pressure). :mad:

    N/A versus F/I

    Depends on your goals. My two cents... Street Car w/some track time: 1. Intake 2. Tune 3. Gears 4. Nitrous (75-100hp shot) King of the Street car w/alot of track time: 1. Supercharger Like I said, that is just my two cents. Good luck with your decision!

    CDC Decklid Trim Panel

    Count yourself lucky then. I wonder if the SHR panel is thinner/lighter/more plyable than the one offered from CDC. Either that or they offer better tape than CDC does. Either way, I am glade that you did not have this problem.;)
