I put rokbloks in mine when I first got it. After a few years I had a lot of small chips on the rear quarters of my car. I recently Installed MMD gt500 side skirts and extensions and It made a big difference. I don't hear the sand and rocks hitting anymore. I would recommend the extensions with...
I used bolt ons for 2 years on this car until I got different rims. My previous car I ran some bolt ons for 8 years and a lot of miles. None of this was on a track but I was confident in them for street driving.
When nothings practical it makes everything practical. I drive them, enjoy them and when they break I fix them.
my daughter has fallen in love with the Monte so I don’t get to drive that one as much since it’s been her daily for the last 2 months.
I 2nd the Z26 pads. I bought them from rockauto. They are about $70. I've run 3 HPDE with these and zero brake fade. I'm going to be replacing these in the spring and sticking with the same ones. I feel like the initial bite is less aggressive but overall braking feels just as strong. The main...
This is 100% true. I'm not sure if there's a low mileage car that has gone for big bucks at major auction, that wasn't a major loss compared to what the S&P 500 would have been.
That being said if you would enjoy looking at another one, get one. If it's just to make money, invest it somewhere else.
I'm on a 5star tune with my only mods being a 2018 factory air intake and a cat back.
I already had the SCT so I figured I'd give them a try for $140 for 3 tunes.
I first used the 91 octane tune and the throttle response was great! the driveablity has been very nice also. It feels good on...
I have the Steeda ultimate handling springs paired with pro action shocks and struts. I've had the springs and shocks for a few years and just did the front struts. It is amazing how much better then stock it rides. I have zero regrets and it's not to low.
I had over 20k in receipts for my 2001 not including any labor. I had to argue with insurance for a few weeks before they gave me a fair amount for the car and I kept the car. I was able to part it out for a bit more then insurance gave me. it was a lot of work but definitely worth it.
Here's a link to race louvers page with vents that can be added. They talk about trimming the factory liner to help with cooling and with downforce. It might be an option.

I used them for a 91 octane tune. I'm happy with it. I've had zero issues and it feels a little snappier then before. I decided to try it because 3 tunes were under $200. I may be down a few HP from other tuners , but I may not. My car runs hard and is reliable.
My personal choice is to change tires at least every three years on my mustangs. I've never had an issue but I worry with a lot of heat cycles the traction will deteriorate. If it's my pickup I'll let those go 6.
OP, I've never heard of an issue on a normal car from lugging it. I've had manuals for 30 years now and never hurt a motor from lugging it. Just this past weekend I was on a road trip driving along twisty roads through the bluffs. 2 days of barely 2 lanes, very few cars and steep hills. I have...
I also just did this and my plates showed up yesterday. I was getting black plates at the DMV and she said I could personalize them. I panicked and said "Ford 1". I think it may be Douchy but it matches the plates on the Chevelle my girlfriend grew up with that say "Chevy 1" and the plates on...
I'm just guessing but you may have 2 separate issues. From what you described it sounds like a rotation vibration at the higher speeds but it's possible it could be a miss fire of some sort and it's just more noticeable with a larger load in higher gears.
As for the stalling my f150 would...
I'm getting a new helmet for hpde and I want to have a friend custom paint it. She's a fantastic artist but normally uses acrylic paints. From searching around it looks like the Spraymax 2K is a good clear coat to put over it when done. Does anyone know if a regular acrylic paint is compatible...
