The Z looks so much better in person, and the GS will have the Z body panels. So there is some hope there. I still believe the front and rear of the car was designed by two completely independent teams and melted together in the middle though haha

Yeah been watching development on it over the last year or so. 535 HP is going to be perfect in this car. Hopefully this car will work out some of the C8 electrical quirks.

You should be able to get any 23 spline kit. I'm 99% certain the M1 is a 23 spline.

Just ordered one for a CPC 350. All the input I've gotten, it will be much sharper than stock, and if street driven, should last. It's got a lightened flywheel, so starts are going to require more finesse, but it's supposed to be easier than the spec I currently have in the car. I track my car...

Go to the individual club websites. Chin, NASA, SCCA etc. Idk, if I'm spending nearly as much on a car as I did my first house, a $25 wristband is pretty inconsequential. Even if everyone says no, you can watch every corner, talk to drivers, get the details first hand.

The main cause is the PTM modes (I finally remembered the name, Performance Traction Mode) are built around the stock tires. You are correct, they are sticky. The guys I chatted with all ran slicks, whether it be the Michilin or the Hoosier, and they ran the softer versions of those tires. I...

OP, you didn't like that clutch anyways, right?:wink:

Agree with all this. The stuff I'd add, the Z06 guys I've met at the track (All Z07 pkg) had mechanical/electrical issues which cut their weekend short. The other thing on the C8, the PDR or ECU or whatever it's called on a C8, is tuned to the stock tire size and grip limits, so the car doesn't...

I want to see the window sticker.

What Recaro's? I sold mine for $2k, but they are the alcantara seats, in perfect condition.

You and me both. I suspect it will be a case of "I'd like the Double Quarter Pounder, with cheese, add Mac Sauce, XL Fries, a large shake, and a DIET Coke". Diet Coke being the CF wheels and CCBs:crackup:

Factory 5 is the place to go; the Daytona is another excellent choice in their wheelhouse. OR, go super old school, with a Caterham.

It's your toe. Setting it at zero means under hard braking (track time), those tires are actually toed out. Thank Ford for the geometry they designed up front... It definitely is worth checking ball joints, rubber bushings, etc...for wear. BUT I experienced exactly what you are experiencing...

How TF did you take this picture?! I feel like the B pillar is right there, if not a bit of quarter panel too lol

Just my two cents but the HC Charger was the most forgiving car I've ever driven. You could slide the rear on it so predictably it was like driving in snow, but at 70-80 mph instead of 25.

Based on what he described, and a recent master cylinder failure on my car, I'm 99% certain that it's the slave. In my car, the master was leaking, and it dumped fluid behind the front driver's side wheel. Leaked all over below the master from the line going to the slave. A really odd pinhole...

To be fair, no chance that $200k Vette is 200k at the dealership if you or I went. Honestly these guys have priced most Americans out of the top of the line versions of these cars. By a silly amount. I appreciate the engineering, and what GM did designing a platform that works across 480 HP to...

Slave cylinder. But might as well check for fluid where the clutch line goes into the master cylinder.

They've said aluminum suspension components. Since the subframe is part of the suspension, I'm hopeful that the subframe is aluminum too. But I'm not holding my breath. But based on past Ford history, the 150 lbs is CCBs and wheels, and the savings is over the base DHSC. Which will be north of...

Where did they announce the weight? All I see is "150 lbs lighter". Good potential I missed it, but if it's 150 lbs lighter, I'd like to know relative to what. There is still potential this thing is less weight than the current 500. I'm not holding my breath, but having an aluminum subframe and...
