  1. Caliper swap - bleed before and after or just after?

    We've all been there and thankfully you figured it out fairly quickly. Those big rotors look really good behind those EC-7s!!
  2. Best way to secure yourself in the stock sofa seats?

    Another +1 for the Schroth QuickFit Pro. I've been using mine since mid-2023 and it really helps keep you in place way better than the 3-point factory belt.
  3. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Here's the thread on the extension panel to complete the brace install.
  4. Caliper swap - bleed before and after or just after?

    Iā€™ve thought about that but have left them in place for now. Have you done this? Is there any shielding that should be left in place?
  5. Caliper swap - bleed before and after or just after?

    I run the same Z26 rotors and pads front and rear for my street setup. They are actually really good street pads and make less dust than the OEM pads. For track days I run OEM rotors with G-LOC R16 front and R12 rear (courtesy of @Optimum Performance). Of course those track day pads don't even...
  6. Caliper swap - bleed before and after or just after?

    According to the big book of things that might be true, the pad should be on the inside because ā€œthe inside pad wears somewhat faster than the outside padā€. While thatā€™s true for floating calipers, it shouldnā€™t apply to the fixed front calipers.
  7. Caliper swap - bleed before and after or just after?

    Yeah, I never read that in any directions, but if you look at the photos on the Ford Performance site, youā€™ll see they have the squealer pads on the outside. https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-2300-V
  8. Caliper swap - bleed before and after or just after?

    Hey, be sure to check the clearance of the brake squealer and inner caliper housing. I found that my squealer was coming into contact with the inner caliper housing, and so I always put that pad in the outside position for clearance.
  9. Is it normal for the car to crank a few times when cold starting with low temperatures?

    Damn, they must have assembled that one on a Fridayā€¦
  10. Brake Hose Clear Cover Longevity

    I'm looking at the J&M Stainless Steel Brake Hose Kit from @Optimum Performance for my non-Magnaride 2018 GT (front 6-piston Brembo) and can't decide on the clear or black cover. I have a preference for the clear cover, but I'm concerned about discoloration in the long term. Does anyone have...
  11. PP1 Splash Shield Unknown Part

    It attaches to the driver's side of the AC condenser.
  12. 2018 GT Daily Track Driver

    What are your current specs and what specs are you going for? When I did the FP Track Handling pack, my alignment was: -1.7/-2.0 After I did the Vorshlag Camber/Castor plates Iā€˜m now at -3.0/-3.2 which is great for the track šŸ˜
  13. Track Time Limited due to High CHT

    So, I'm watching the latest Stay Tuned video when I see Tony Angelo use 40 mil PVC Shower Pan Liner to box the radiator šŸ¤Æ Anyone do something similar?
  14. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Thatā€™s a super cool photo. Iā€™m waiting to see if the photographer at the event got any good shots. It was a rainy day, so maybe some good rain shots.
  15. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Rainy Track day out at Eagles Canyon Raceway!
  16. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Nice! Youā€™re going to love that kit!
  17. SPARK PLUGS, NGK VS MOTORCRAFT?

    Sure, could have done that, but decided to replace them. I still stand by that decision. Not sure what this has to do with anything. Yes, the diff fluid change fixed the sluggish feeling I was experiencing. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø I'm just trying to share my experiences with the OP that even though the mileage...
  18. SPARK PLUGS, NGK VS MOTORCRAFT?

    At 39K miles, my OEM plugs were worn anywhere from .054 to .060, so I decided to replace them. Now, granted I track my car and daily drive it so the spark plugs are going to wear faster than the mileage suggests. I originally went with the 6509 plugs based on the NGK site's parts picker, but...
  19. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Looks good! Not sure what hoses you are using, but if they start to collapse under vacuum, you might consider reinforcing them with some inner springs. I did that to mine and theyā€˜ve been rock solid ever since.
  20. How are people liking 4.09 gears in the MT82?

    The 4.09 gears are on my X-mas wish list... Anyone have a shop recommendation in the DFW, TX area for the install?
