So my license plate has just arrived, but I just realized that there is nothing on the body of the car that I can attach the plate to. There are the 4 holes which I need to drill and then screw, which I can, but usually in my previous cars there used to be a plastic piece that sits between the...
I have just completed my first oil change and have the following notes/tips for people who might be interested:
Lifting:
* Standard 56" or 67" race ramps do not clear the splitter. You need to purchase the extension.
* With the extension, the standard height of 8" is not enough to be able to...
I went under the car today just as a prep before my first oil change tomorrow. I have a fairly accurate (and expensive) torque wrench for low torque numbers, set it to the correct spec and to my surprise there is a fair bit of movement. I didnt even torque it to 18 ft/lbs because I will remove...
Besides the 6GR wheels which seem like they weigh 25 lbs (vs 33 lbs of stock), are there any lighter wheel options out there more like around 20-21 lbs for the base GT350 (not R spec)? It seems like tire rack dont carry any wheels for GT350 yet.
I know O.Z. has superforgiata which weighs...
LMR is selling the oil change kit for $140. They sell the oil filter for $25 and I believe the quart of oil is around $11.
I also found this website "K-man's parts" which is selling the same oil (looks to me same) for $7.99 and oil filter for $14.
Any reason not to get it from K-man...
I know there is steeda rails, but I really dont want to add 30 lbs of weight to my car. So assuming that is not an option, has anyone actually used jack stands on the pinch welds and bent them? I have seen in other forums many people mentioning (there was one guy who actually works as a tech who...
Anyone else has this? Only happens in 2nd gear, there is an annoying rattle coming most likely from the shifter knob itself or under the gear level. Would be great if a DIY solution is available, I wonder how hard is it to open up the gear lever? Maybe a few phelt tapes could fix it?
Before you say "search", I actually did and wanted to clarify.
Is there no standard jack points (typically under the rocker panels) on this car, you have to jack by the suspension arms?
Long time 9500ix user here (about 8 years I believe), with the Shelby as the second car, I placed an order for the new Max 360. Is there anyone here who has used it? What do you guys think? I love my 9500ix, it has saved me so many times.
I was leaning towards V1, but I dont have an android and...
This comes from a guy who has not purchased a single domestic made vehicle since he has gotten his license over 15 years ago. Yes, GT350 is the first domestic car I have ever bought. I like this car so much that if I were so rich and had an extra garage, I would buy another one. One to look at...
The purpose of this thread is to help fellow forum members. It seems like some of you have great difficulty finding sticker deals for base cars or decent R deals.
Go to Ford.com and choose your car, options, colors, etc dont matter. Just choose whether you want GT350 or GT350R
Hit next steps...
Got my car and drove it all day.
Yes I know you want to see pictures, I have lots but not with my M5. I'm sure if I post the pictures here, no one will believe it's real, the only way you'll believe me is if I post a picture of both cars side by side. I will do that as soon as I can.
Anyways...
What does everyone use for TW? I have a quality TW but its max rating is 180, its tough putting 110 with it, cant imagine 150 will be easy. Do you recommend using one of those expensive CDI ones?
I know the seat is sold separately and there is a step by step guide on how to install it.
My question is, has anyone with an R gone through this? Have you installed it yourselves or did you have it installed? Any issues after install like rattles etc? Any tips?
Thanks!
Not sure if you guys know, assuming you dont, Michelin tends to build a specific tire for a given make/model. For instance, for any given size, say 295/35/20, you will have a different PSS model for BMW M5, Mercedes E63 AMG, Audi S7, etc. In other words, you cannot just shop any size of Michelin...
I have a 2017 electronics pack at 1k over arriving in a few days. I also have the same exact car, identical spec, at msrp, but it will be here in 2 months.
Would you pay the 1k extra?
Also the car with adm is 4 hours away whereas the other one at msrp is 10.5 hours away.
