I just looked up the JPC solution. Looks good to me. Any reason why you think it is not up to snuff?
But yes, I would love a simpler engagement of our factory line lock as well.
Would really like to be able to return seat back to position without using reclining lever. My daughter puts her school bag in the back seat, and each time she needs to put seat back she needs to readjust. Also, when she exits and grabs her bag she only has one hand free so we both need to work...
Anything is possible. I don't know them all that well, but got to talking to them last time I was at the track same day they blew the 3rd tranny.
Its a development car for them, so yeah they are probably putting it through its paces. I was just relaying what they told me.
For OP, it seems that you can afford it, so enjoy it!
I am starting to think about it as well, but I am only 2 years into a 5 year low loan. When its paid, I'll strongly consider it as well. For now, just some bolt on mods, I tend to purchase minor upgrades over the winter hiatus every year...
This here. People have to understand the value of investing and compound interest earned on investments.
Here are 2 calculations to demonstrate the benefits of borrowing/investing. At a 3% return over 12 months, $5000 would make you $180. You would need to borrow at 5.5% interest over the same...
A local Coyote specialized shop up here has gone through 3 10r80s running a twin turbo setup at about 800 hp. He told me personally that the 10 speed clutches can't handle power. At stock or near stock, 10 speed has advantages, but if you're going to go 800+ on it, it will give you grief.
11s is easily achievable with headers, cai & tune. with some type of drag tire and good driving technique.
I have a '17 GT, that I hope I can get to low 12s with a Ford performance pack 1, IRS suspension upgrades and 26" M&H slicks.
10s would take a power adder to achieve, or massive weight...
Wow! Wasn’t expecting unanimous consent for 3.73s!
With the 26” slicks I have, it would be similar to 3.73 and 28”
3.55 @ 7000 rpm 116 mph 26”
3.73 @ 7000 rpm 118 mph 28”
3.73 @ 7000 rpm 110 mph 26” (would have to sell my current tires and buy 28”)
I had an offer for a 3.73 torsen swap, but...
So I got a MT82 '17 GT. Its a summer toy, used daily weather permitting. Currently stock 3.31s. I am thinking of swapping in some 3.55s.
Can I get some driving impressions from fellow owners who have gone from 3.31 to 3.55?
I plan on taking it to the drag strip a few times a year as well, and...
I got 2 17"x10" ET18 SC2 wheels that don't clear the stock rear callipers on the S550 (probably would with some minor grinding).
Specs: 17" x 10" ET18 5x114.3 CB70.6
Like new.
Asking $300 CDN ($225 USD)
I am in Laval, Quebec
Offset is not the only factor that impacts how they'll fit, rim width needs to be considered as well. In your scenario, the inside clearance remains unchanged and the Shelby wheels will poke out more than your stock wheels. The result will be perfect.
You can use this site to visualize the...
I think my '17 GT makes a similar noise to what everyone refers to as the BBQ, but only when releasing the clutch. I can hear it when I pull into my garage, it bounces off my other car next to me. That is the only time I can hear it.
Vandalism happens. Someone keyed the side of my Subaru Legacy recently. I can't think of anyone I pissed off, and yet someone felt the need to vandalise my property.
Someone needs to develop a high video quality dash cam that can record 360 degree. I had bought the Waylens 360 from Kickstarter...
