I am to the point of 5 track days. I feel i should be close to 50% front brakes. That is ONE BIG ASSED Torx bolt! What size is that, as i need to go to napa and get one!
I have 2 2020 GT500s. One has done 5 track days. 2 days at Gateway, 2 at heartland, and one at Homestead. I am VERY curious what the original Brake pad thickness is. Also what size is that TORX bolt holding the calipers on? I am thinking i may be due for front brakes.
That car is in the...
Well crap! I didn’t know there was a 3R. I got what was available local and fast as my tire change place destroyed the bead on one of my sport cup 2s and I was In a pinch. I assumed there was only one “super car 3” tire…. Thanks for the info. The sport cups grip like hell, I can’t imagine...
FYI Goodyear SC3 tires SUCK compared to Sport Cup 2! Each and every driver who ran the GT500 with the Goodyears agree! We had one car with factory stagger Sport Cup 2, and one with 305 square Goodyear SC3. Everyone said the Goodyears had much less grip. Homestead/Miami should eat up those...
I now have 2 of these beasts for track days. One of them is down to about 50% front pads. Should I go with G-loc pads? If so which compound? Should I go back with OEM, they seem to stop pretty good!?
If I goto G-loc am I going to have issues with the compound already on the rotor?
I think that's where i saw it. I will go back and look again. Just wondered if anyone had real-world experience with them.
I just ordered the vorshlag and within 5 minutes they called me to make sure i did not accidentally order 2 sets when i only needed one (one for each strut) I laughed...
My Garage :) (the car covers can be seen rolled up on the trunks, was hoping they wouldn't show.) I plan on doing an epoxy coating on concrete floors and walls, but need to wait for concrete to set up a few months.
I realized my original GT500 (red) was missing the front splitter from the...
Awesome info guys!!! I’ll get the volshlag . I will be doing track days, that’s why I bought the cars :). I went through front tires on both cars in one weekend because of the outside edge on both fronts were getting hammered!!! The inside edges of both fronts are pristine. I thought this...
I definitely got the handling package on both cars, but no adjustable camber plates, just checked. I am looking at plates online, but the GT500 has VERY small holes for the top of the strut, so i think some of the adjustable plates wouldn't work, IE pedders.
I am going with 305s on all fours for an upcoming track day in the homestead. I can only currently get Goodyear Eagle Supercar 3 locally. Which are only available in 305, not 315.
I had a full set of Sport Cup 2s on wheels ready to put on the car. I had Big O Tires in Missouri mount and...
I am absolutely amazed my 2017 GT350 has no factory-installed tow hook receiver, WOW! How big of a bitch is it to remove the front facia!? ZL1 addons STARTS the video with the damn front facia coming off with no info on how to remove it!
lovely.... Alright, well it's getting SRF then... It exceeds DOT type 3 or 4 so will be covered under the warranty.
I won't be getting my 350 for a week or so. It is being shipped.
I was not going to change the clutch fluid, only brake fluid... I was not under the impression the stock clutch fluid was a problem.
I am thinking of going with these VXR1 wheels in the "square" setup. I had feelers out for just getting a spare set of OEM GT350 wheels for track days, but it...
