Hi
UPDATE JAN 2020 - SOLD STATUS
Sold my FM GT Fastback MT a few weeks (Apr 2019) ago and have some gear - some new, some used. The photo was taken a few weeks ago - I've just been slack putting this up.
This is for Australian based buyers only (goods are in Brisbane QLD)

I installed a GT350 brace - rhs rear of brace needs the grinding to clear cowl brace. I just took a bit of metal out at a time. Took maybe 40 mins - I was careful. Makes a difference in turn-in you can feel for sure.
Thanks folks for the constructive feedback and advice that you have similar situation. For he record, this happens way above "stall point" which is as low as 500 rpm and is a totally different matter.
The separate matter re the gearbox "gravelly" sound from v low revs in 1st and 2nd (clutch is...
Hi,
Need opinions please. I have a 2017 MT GT coupe.
Since brand new, I have had a drive-line wobble or shake right at the clutch take up point when letting the clutch out - low revs (less than 1000 rpm). This is when when you have to slip the clutch slightly at the take up point, eg...
Hi Spiller
Spring isolators - I am meaning a plastic tube that is slid over coils of a spring where those coils will touch. Progressive rate springs have some closely wound coils and these are designed to collapse on each - which provides the variable rate - this is where they can be noisy. You...
Hi Spiller - yes suspension points are clocked - its not that. Bounce for me is a ride issue - low speed city driving. It's jiggly at low speeds, it won't settle - it won't "sit down". There is a thread here that deals with the issue I...
It would be great if you did before and after dB measurement. I have vert links and cradle lock-out and the tyre noise on coarse chip (roads around scenic rim SEQ) is enough to give you tinnitus - wife won't go distances with me as its too noisy in the cabin. On hot mix - no worries - its pretty...
Hi
I bought Borla Touring with resonator. I thought it was too loud initially - some folks say 10% louder than stock - nup, no-way - lot more than that when you open it up - maybe 40% (very subjective measure obviously). But its carboned up a bit now after 1500klms, I am a bit more used to it...
I haven't installed mine yet. They are sitting here gathering dust along with my behind- the-bumper "Parking Dynamics" front parking sensor strip and US lower grille.
How about Blingworks come on line and assure us there is no risk of this occurring?
Oil Weight
In Australia, forum members here report that their dealers are using 5-30 weight oil as per specific Ford instructions. Maybe as we have a hot climate.
Watch for over tyring
That rear tyre is too big (tall) in IMHO. Do it in a 30 aspect - you are adding taller gearing here wit this - it just looks too big. I think folks are over-tyring them (width) which makes them look silly. Look back on page 8/9 - my car has 295/35 x 20 rear 275/35 x 20...
Folks
Any of you looked at this?

Konis Compression too soft?
Hi Niz,
Curious on this. I have just removed Koni's in rear due to poor ride with BMR Handling springs. Back on PP dampers which is not enough for the spring (not bad) its way better but I should either custom valve the Koni's softer or go for FRPP - which BMRTech...
I have just had these Steeda diff bushings (red) fitted and I get thudding, clunking on any load change and diff whine on overrun. Really big increase to NVH. Terrible. Thinking of ripping them out, but might try this backing out half a turn. Grind one of the bolts back a mm or two?
I had Borla Touring Cat back fitted last week - has mid resonator. Whilst it sounds great and I get thumbs up out of car windows, and people coming up to me to tell me how awesome it sounds - deep tone, all that its just way way too loud. This is a US 2.5" system.
Way too loud even with a light...
