  1. Starter motor heat soak?

    Hey guys, I think Iā€™ve solved my starting issues (I think). For the longest time, my car would randomly not ā€œcrankā€ when starting up after a track session or long drive. At first I thought it was the starter relay or starter fuse, after changing those out, I still had starting problems. I...
  2. Problem getting alignment?

    I donā€™t know whether I messed up or whether itā€™s an incompetent shop. I have a ā€˜18 non-R. I installed the oem camber plates that come with ā€˜19 and up gt350s. I took it to an alignment shop to try get the Ford recommended track alignment. The guy said they canā€™t adjust my camber plates since...
  3. Parking right after hot track

    General practice on most cars is to use a wheel chock or a 2x4 right after coming off a track session to prevent rotor damage with a parking brake. Iā€™m not sure whether ours are similar to other cars (ours have drum brakes in the rear for the parking brake), but would that result in any damage...
  4. Oil overheating at track

    Hi folks, Trying to get a general consensus here as to whether thereā€™s something wrong with my ā€˜18 gt350 or whether the norm. My car is completely stock. Ambient temps were a blistering 108Ā°+ that day. After about 4 laps, the oil temp gauge was pushing 300Ā° and went into limp a couple times...
  5. Car will be in shop 3+ months due to parts shortage

    Hey guys, I need some advice. Car has been in the shop since the beginning of March. It had a 5th gear grind, but it turned out to be more than just synchros. Theyā€™re replacing the transmission under warranty but getting the parts seem to be a bit of a pain. I got a call today. They stated...
  6. Any Gt350 owners have experience with Subaru Sti?

    My Gt350 is my current weekend/track/fun car, and I'm definitely not selling it. She's a keeper for sure. I'm plan on replacing my current daily driver and am looking at the current WRX Sti as a possible contender. They seem to share similar characteristics with our Shelbys...no torque below...
  7. Defective transmission?

    So I was driving around town, when all of a sudden the car wouldn't shift into 2. No grind, no noise....I was trying to shift up from 1st gear at around 10mph after a stop sign. I wasn't racing/accelerating hard. Just regular traffic speed and it felt as though there was a lock out (those...
  8. Oil leak from driver’s side?

    Hey guys, just got back from a track event. Noticed oil drips/stains in my driveway that lead to the garage. A small oil puddle had formed by the front driverā€™s wheel. I checked the oil plug and oil filter. No leaks coming from there. The whole wheel well is covered in a layer of oil. Iā€™m...
  9. Best site for Brembo pads?

    Hey guys, itā€™s time to replace my stock brembo pads. Where do you guys get yours from? Thanks!
  10. Proper hood adjustment?

    Hi guys, Is there a proper way to adjust/measure those rubber bump-stops for our hood? Are they supposed to barely touch the hood, or are they supposed to provide enough upward force against the hood to properly activate lock?
  11. Wet weather mode?

    hey guys, About to attend a track day. Unfortunately itā€™ll be raining pretty hard. Iā€™m coming from a c7 with a pretty sophisticated nanny. Do our gt350s have anything similar?
  12. Metallic scraping sounds turning left

    Hi folks! I noticed a strange metallic scraping/raspy sound coming from my car when making slow left turns. Especially noticeable in parking structures and when fully locked left. Doesnā€™t make the same sound when turning right. Iā€™m assuming itā€™s either a suspension component or perhaps the rear...
  13. Reason behind dual stage clutch spring?

    Has Ford ever talked about the reasoning for this dual stage clutch assist spring? I believe the other trim mustangs donā€™t use it. I like how light it is, but as others have mentioned, I found it hard to modulate. Especially in LA bumper-to-bumper traffic. I switched over to the steeda set and...
  14. Where do you guys buy your oil?

    Iā€™ve been to several stores (autozone, pep boys, Walmart etc). None of them carry 5w50. Do you guys just go to the dealer or do you buy online?
  15. What color are your tailpipes?

    Hi folks! Just got my ā€˜18 Kona Blue non-R on Monday. Love this thing!! I was washing/detailing it today and started noticing nice little design decisions. First thing I noticed where the badges. I always thought the fender and trunk ā€œsnakeā€ badges were silver...turned out mine are a nice subtle...
  16. Loss of traction up driveway

    Hi guys, just drove back home in a new gt350. Everything was fine until I got to my drive way. I had to take the driveway at an angle due to the low ground clearance of the splitter. I suddenly lost traction to my rear wheels (Iā€™m assuming due to rear lift/differential) and had to back down and...
  17. Rocker panel function?

    Apart from collecting rocks, does the little opening behind the front wheel serve a purpose? I know a lot of folks block it with a wheel well rock guard or foam block. But the little winglet doo-hickey...does it serve any aero dynamic purpose?
  18. Recaros vs Non-Recaros

    Hi guys, I'm on the hunt for a 2018 GT350...but was wondering which seats I should opt for. I like the look of the recaros, but am curious about the ventilated/heated seats. How well do they work? I had heated/cooled seats in my C7 and they didn't particularly work too well...I could only feel...
  19. Will Stripes be included in the VIN?

    As Iā€™m hunting down my perfect GT350 (nation wide), some adds only have stock photos or no pictures yet. They do however have the vins posted. Is there a way to determine whether the car has stripes or not via the vin? Thanks, yā€™all!!
  20. Any front bras available?

    Hey guys, Iā€™m planning on picking up a car out of state and driving it back home cross country (approx 2000 miles). Do they sell bras to protect the front end for this road trip? I plan on getting suntek or xpel once I get home. Do those novistretch masks for the regular mustangs work on the...
