  1. I did it again, could not help myself... bought another car

    I had new 1974 2002tii. Back in the day, the car was the shitz. It was a fast cornering fuel injected limited slip rear-end 4-banger manual that surprised a lot of people. Very few people knew about these cars. I finally sold it in 2015. Mechanically, they were not bad to work on except tuning...
  2. CostCo Gas

    I always wondered about this. I've been told that this does not happen as much anymore. I forgot how or why. In any case, I stopped using Costco gas about 12 years ago after my sensitive setting knock sensors went berserk on my new motor in my 02 Lightning. I quickly drove around for a couple...
  3. On the hunt for a Helmet

    Go to a large motorcycle dealership, i.e. Harley Davidson to get an idea. M/C helmets are not allowed on most race tracks, but at least you can get an idea on fitting capabilities by different manufactures.
  4. On the hunt for a Helmet

    In my amateur drag racing days, Bell was my preferred brand (full face). Make sure the expiration date in the liner is still good. The track officials will prevent you from any racing if the date is past due. Don't go cheap. Remember you only have one head.
  5. Oil level observation

    Same here. IMO the operative word is 'consistency'. Do it warm all the time, do it cold all the time, do it 15 minutes after shut down all the time, etc. and do it on a level surface as much as possible. And something about the cross hatch facing the motor when taking a reading. Don't know if...
  6. Recommending A Ford Dealership In The Phoenix Area

    Good to have you in the valley. I just had my oil changed this past Wednesday @ Sanderson Ford which would be a drive from your future residence, but I recommend them. I used to travel to Tucson to service one of my vehicles a long time ago. Therefore, I am kind of picky myself. There are...
  7. Canyon Attack w/ Some Porsche Buddies

    Which Az state route was that.....60,87,93 or another one? You were driving so fast I couldn't recognize any of the landmarks...lol. Good vid.
  8. GT350 BASICS & OTHER ESSENTIAL INFORMATION- IGNORE AT YOUR OWN RISK

    Just noticed the stickey. One of the most informative threads, especially for new members and new viewers. It took a little over a year, but well worth it. Great idea and job, Tank.

  11. Using a different dealer than where is purchased?

    Got my mustang from Auto Nation Scottsdale and my 350 from S Carolina. There are 3 dealerships that are closer to me but IMO the most knowlegeable, mod-friendly, and trustworthy dealership,so far, has been Sanderson Ford. You can use any dealership you want but I think the three freebie oil...
  12. Thinking about going from GT back to a slow car

    Interesting thread....I have a Jetta, also....VR6 with no oil usage at all. This car has surprised the unknowingly quite a few times with its Tiptronic feature. I kind of know where you are coming from and my other vehicles are used for its intended purposes mostly. If I need to be...
  13. The R still turns heads - 2 years later

    Speaking of little kids....yesterday, some 5,6,7 year olds were playing soccer in their front yard and their soccer ball went into the street. Parents taught them well. "do not go into the street". I stopped and the oncoming traffic stopped too. I threw the ball back into their yard and the...

  15. Engine Coolant Topoff - Normal?

    Exactly same situation here. I ran it hard 2 or 3 times in the hot temps back in Oct, 2017 to make sure it was a coolant leak for Ford svc dept. They noticed a small leak in the lower right corner of the radiator. The radiator and the oil cooler tube assembly (lines) were replaced under...
  16. How much are folks paying for transmission fluid these days?

    Changing to BG Synchroshift II soon on the 350. On my boosted GTPP, night and day difference in shifting the MT82....no grinding or missed gates. Maybe need more seat time on the 350 (acquired Sept 2017..1500 miles to date), but the Tremec 3160 has been finicky so far. We'll see if BG...
  17. GT350 or Whippled GTPP?

    I currently have both plus my baby...compound boost 02 Lightning. If one has the resourses, an FI GTPP w/ mods versus a factory GT350 is a tough call. As others have alluded to, what are your plans and goals. IMO, vehicles are meant to be driven...not garaged. To me, depreciation or limited...

  19. IF YOU WANT A QUALITY SPARE PLEASE LOOK HERE!

    You guys are on my same page. Could care less about fitment in trunk. Emergency and being stranded in Texas is my concern, LOL (although I do carry).
  20. Car Bogging Down at Highway Speed

    Throw some unleaded race gas in to see if that will help or Torco if you like orange plugs.
