For sale is my 2017 white w/ Kona blue stripes GT350 with Electronics Package in excellent condition. Build date is later in 2017 so has the cartridge oil filter. Iām the second owner. I purchased the car with just over 300 miles in 2019 and it now has only 4674 miles. Still has the factory...
Hereās another option for a GT350. My car is on Ford Performance springs. I was planning on using 19x11 wheels with 315/30 square but didnāt want the car to be any lower so went with 305/35 PSS. Suspension does need to settle a little from putting the wheels on.
The rattling between 2 - 3k rpm is the piston slap and can occur when engine isnāt up to full operating temp.
OP - is the noise there between 2 - 3k rpm with light throttle after oil temp reaches at least 200?
Yep, between 2 - 3k rpm. What was your oil temp when recording the videos? Noise should go away or be greatly reduced once up to normal operating temp.
Since starters are dying from vibration, would be curious how starter life changes from lowering peak engine rpm. If not competing, and only doing regular track events, try shifting at 7k rpm. Not as fun as winding out the engine to 8250 but not fun dealing with dead starters all the time...
FP350S is obviously set up for slicks. Driving on street tires would be terribleā¦..way too much spring rate. Unless the suspension was changed to compensate for the lower grip street tires, which is doubtful.
I bought my 2017 in late 2019 with 325 miles. Now has 4250. Only issue has been a leaking oil pressure sensor. Was fixed under warranty, no issue since. Doesnāt burn any measurable amount of oil.
They are special cars. Wouldnāt hesitate to buy any year with the original engine or a...
Not sure what your ultimate plans are but I think it would look really cool to leave the carbon fiber exposed but add the red with black accent stripes!
If tracking, most tracks have more right handers than left because clockwise direction. This puts more load into the left rear wheel bearing compared to right for same miles run.
Passengers donāt help š, but yes to my previous pointā¦ā¦under sprung. Need more roll stiffness. Iād try full stiff on front sway bar and then with front at full stiff, change rear to full stiff. Not enough rear roll stiffness can also reduce front grip as rear squats too much. And the...
Thatās why I suggested increasing front roll stiffness. The intuitive solution to correct understeer on āstreet suspensionā with sticky tires is to decrease front roll stiffness and/or decrease tire pressure. This usually doesnāt help and most the time makes it understeer more.
We discussed it...
