Anyone wanying to get the same anodized red, don't recommend it, It looked clean when I did it, after a few months, turning orange, just like real anodized parts, when constantly exposed to heat or sun, will discolor quick, will be redoing them in gloss red
Correct, I'm working on finding solutions to makw them work without the S650 additional hardware and ahhh okay I didnt even think about the GT500 abs module just switching the brain over
Also from what I read if anyone is interested, sadly I already swapped all x4 of my lower control arms in the front with the ford performance set with spherical bearings, the new S650 ball joints are extended to correct the center roll of the spindle when lowering the mustang since on S550s, it...
Its mainly to save cost and remaining budget friendly, the Gt350 system you have to swap knuckles still but also get the parking drum assembly, brackets, axles, etc. Plus when it comes to servicing the rotors and pads, will be pricey compared to the S650 swap where if your on a budget, you can...
Good news, I messaged a few people that 3D print parts and potentially still own a S550, only one responded so far and said he can try and make a delete panel for the handbrake, it will just be a flat blank delete panel you could mount switches too but says it'll take time which of course
The knuckle project was a success, reasoning I could not tell you but all it took was a adjustble toe arm in the rear to get everything in spec and zero out, I could not tell you if its because of s550 stock arm length or if I had damaged my toe adjustment bolts on reinstallation, so knuckle was...
From what I've read, exhaust hangars are in different locations from S550 to S650, valve I read are also positioned in a different orientation then the S550's which may cause rubbing but not sure if it mentioned on the actuator or on the wiring but fitment appears to be the same
So I made a drawing of my own wiring diagram, I will post it only as reference and a few things will change if anyone copies it, the wiring pinout will match the kia optima module, possibly the parking brake switch (s550) but cannot confirm the color wire changed from different year adaptations...
I remembered someone brought it up or talked about doing it however from what I recalled was that they were going to have to convert the wiring harness on their 10r80 to one that came in a ford with the 10r80 but came with a rotary knob, I'm not sure if this also requires swapping the...
Now that I have time on my hands, let the electronic parking brake wiring commence, to start with the build, I have a 2016 Kia Optima EPB Module that only cost me like $50 with the pigtail and mounting bracket :
To disconnect the connector if they didn't give you plenty of length in wire to...
Hahaha thanks brotha, yea I was swimming back to shore and I felt the most powerful chomp on my foot, thought it was a shark so I started kicking and by the time I got to sand, I was bleeding everywhere and then the venom kicked in, luckily it smacked me vs stabbing me which there more known to...
Electric parking brake calipers ordered and already shipped out so will provide a update soon once I get the wiring figured out, so the S650 electric parking brake handle will get wired up to the Kia Optima EPB Module, this will also wire into the S550's parking brake signal wires to display on...
So the ipc module connects to the stock S550 cluster connector, then the ipc module has a power pigtail and feed wire that connects it to the screen, it worked, I just had to use forscan to chanhe where the fuel pump was sending info via to bcm or to ipc, s550 is ipc, s650 is bcm so quick change...
The one thing I really fell in love with are the long thick eyebrows like the actual S650's that my old lacked, also they come with 8 (4 different pairs/colored plug in connectors) that change the drl and turn signal strobe to fade in, I chose orange drl with sequential fade for turn signal, I...
I ordered a forged carbon steering wheel trim thats been at customs for a month already, but I have some new headlights coming in, I bought the Morimoto LF414's, I use to have morimoto XB till they got discontinued and loved them so I know I wont be disappointed but I'll be getting rid of the...
That looks so good!! It actually doesn't look as bright as i thought it would like a light gray, also the red accents with the red stitching looks awesome
So I may be scrapping the 2024 Gateway Idea, I was talking to a buddy of mine and he pointed out that If I were to seperate the HS2 and HS3 and reroute it to the 2024 Gateway, in theory everything I meantioned could work, however there are 2 issues, although everything I would want to work may...
