Hello,
I'm planning to upgrade to a GT soon and can't seem to decide whether I should go with a 400a or 401a.
401a includes all 400a features, but also has:
- BLIS (I kind of prefer integrated mirrors)
- Memory seats (neat, but not required)
- Shaker Pro
- Navigation (I would use...
Does anyone know where Motorcraft OEM parts are manufactured for our cars? Specifically I'd like to know about GT front brakes.
I'm being charged duties on the brakes that I bought and I would like to think that Motorcraft is manufactured in North America, so the duty fee isn't correct and...
Hey all,
Looking for some input and suggestions regarding what I should do to prep my car for tracking (lapping) in 2017 season.
A bit of a background:
- Daily racecar
- I drive agressively
- Been lapping once ever
- Trying to get into lapping, but hesitant to buy lots of things in...
Hey all,
As it's winter season here over the wall, it's time to switch up the shoes for the car. I was running 20" Niche Targa before and loved the way they looked. As I started getting into drag and road racing, I started to value wheel weight more and more.
Currently I'm on the hunt for a...
Hello,
I have a question regarding the camber specs and tire wear. Here are my specs from the last alignment I did 6+ months ago:

It seems that the rear camber is within stock spec (~ -1.5 degrees), however my rear tires are only worn 50% on the inside. What I'd...
Can anyone recommend brake pad replacements for our cars? Would love to see a list of options with pros/cons.
Ideally something better than stock with less brake dust.
Hello all,
I greatly miss the AUX port on my '15, but had to get with the time and use bluetooth to stream off my phone. Everything was great for 3 months until bluetooth playback freezes 10 seconds into the first song that plays. I can listen to my phone via headphones no problem, but the...
Hey all,
Been going to the track lately to have a good time with friends, but competitive me just isn't satisfied each time I go because my times are absolute shit.
My best 1/4 was 14.9 before I got a tune from MPT. With a tune I ran 14.9. Before everyone starts yelling driver mod (duh...
So my buddy and I were talking about what mods I should do next and he mentioned that gears would be a good one. Then he said that his GT 3.31 gears and my 3.15 gears might be interchangeable and that we should swap our differentials (he has a procharger so he wants longer gears).
Question is...
Hello all,
Figured I'd post about my experience with the GT strut tower brace on my V6. In my opinion it's not worth it and I would wait until a proper brace is made for V6. Here is why:
- Clearance - as is, the brace does not clear our intake manifold. After the adjustments below, the brace...
Hey all,
Just picked up BBK shorty ceramic headers and found out that local shops want $500+ to install the damn things:doh:. I did not see that coming and wondering how difficult it is to install shorties? Can someone with experience chime in on this? I'm not mechanically inclined but do...
Hey all,
So I got a bunch of bolt ons on the car now and I'm ready to put a tune on it. What I'm curious about is the performance gains from a tuned car with Roush CAI vs stock box with K&N drop in filter.
Does anyone have actual numbers to show for this?
Hey guys,
Here is a quick and terrible video of my Solo Performance catback exhaust specifically made for our V6: [ame]
Since I'm located in Toronto, I was able to get in touch with Solo Performance locally and they told me they needed a car to help them shoot promo videos for the new V6...
Hey guys,
I have a rather childish question, but it's been bothering me.
I have a full catback exhaust and a manual. Every time I downshift, or just do a little throttle blip in neutural I only hear 2-3 pops/crackles. Is it only happening because I'm running stock tune?
I'm planning on...
Hey,
For those that did the GT grille swap, I'm wondering if the lower grille fits correctly. Specifically, I'm looking to get this part:

Hey all,
So I impulse bought a GT tower brace for my V6 for a decent Canadian price :headbonk:
Has anyone installed these? I know they apparently don't clear the manifold, but I was talking to other people in my group and they said if I add spacers of sorts it should be fine. Thoughts?
Recently I had an opportunity to pass on my V6 '15 auto 3.15 (went to a family member) and purchase a V6 '16 manual 3.15 (no, I can't afford a GT and don't like EBs :headbonk:). This is my first manual and I'm having a blast rowing gears.
However, one thing I noticed is that the manual feels...
