    Pop goes the 4th gear!? ... and reverse too

    3rd does it to me ALL the time. I'm almost certain the damn synchro's are gone in it... I've never had gears just "pop" out so I doubt it was driver errror, could be wrong though.

    Can't beat LT1

    I don't either, could of been a bad race. Thats why I want to race from a stop. And from what I know his car is stock, or else the guy before him did something and he doesn't know about it, cause my friend doesnt get into performance stuff plus he cant afford to put gas in it. He told me the...

    Can't beat LT1

    I don't believe I said he was raping me, if I did then sorry to confuse. Problem is, we're neck and neck, and I'm not stock. I couldn't get ahold of him today so we could run him, but I'm sure I'll be able to sometime during the week... I really should be able to whoop his ass, we'll see though.

    Can't beat LT1

    I guess so, unless theres something thats happened since then, because theres atleast a 10,000 mile gap between then and now. I was just curious if there could be something mechanically wrong.

    Can't beat LT1

    Think so? I figured that would be more his territory since LT1's are "downlow kings".

    Can't beat LT1

    Well, I started in second at around 3500 rpms or so, went into third and got around midway and backed off. It really wasn't that great of a race, but I still thought I'd do better.

    Can't beat LT1

    I don't know how you could put a better driver in there. It wasn't a launch race, like I said we were rolling and I was midway through second... I shifted into third probably around 5700 RPMs and he was still screaming by my side. I just figured with the stuff I had done, plus his car being...

    Can't beat LT1

    Well, as you can see I have a 1999 GT, Bassani X pipe, Flowmaster exhaust, 4.10 gears, steeda pullies, densecharger intake. My friend has a POS 1996 Firebird with the LT1, automatic. Now before, when I had my 97 GT with just an intake and flowmasters, we were neck and neck through 1st and 2nd...

    Need some opinions...

    No, they're 17's. He said that there is still quite a bit of tread on them cause he doesn't "burn them off". If I do get it, I'm gonna get the black honey comb back piece, v6 trunk lid, 01 head lights, gt badges... then I'll probably get some different wheels.

    Need some opinions...

    Thanks for the help guys, keep it coming. It's a coupe. I know for sure I'm not going to give him over 11, he told me he knows book says 11 on it, but he's got a lot done to it.

    Need some opinions...

    I am looking for a newer car, and I found a 1999 Mustang GT, silver, black leather interior, has some stuff done to it, 4.10 gears, basanni X, flowmasters, air intake, subframe connectors, steeda ultra light wheels. Has 49,500 miles, and he said he "needs" 11,250. Well, KBB says the car retails...

    Starting a detail business

    Thanks guys, I dunno what I am going to do. I think my biggest problem is I'm not 18, and I don't really have my own set place. I do appreciate the advice.

    Starting a detail business

    I know the majority, I have a lot to learn though, don't get me wrong. But I'm comfortable with the clay bar system, and waxing with stuff like Meguairs and such.

    Starting a detail business

    Yeah I know what you mean. A few summers ago I worked for a guy who did detailing, and he did the used cars that came into car dealerships. I can say I wasn't really happy with our jobs, we just sprayed them off at the car wash, then threw some wax on it and thats it, yet the dealerships never...

    Starting a detail business

    Hey guys, I just quit my job that I've been with for a year now, and I really want to get into detailing cars. I enjoy cleaning and waxing my own car, and I think it would be nice to make some decent change doing so. My only problems are I'm 17, and I really don't have my own shop or anything...

    best type of car wash

    Ah, I must recommend Meguairs NXT car wash. I tried some a month or so ago, and that'll be the last brand I buy for a while. I was really happy with it. It suds up really good, and seems to do a really good job on the paint and wheels. Also smells good as well :).
