Looking to pickup a quality coil spring compressor to avoid dealing with the crap you rent from the local auto parts store. Seems like there are a lot of choices of the same Chinese compressor tool, different name, from Amazon and eBay. Taiwan made tools offer much better quality compared to...
Anyone ever get the warning “Top is not secure, reduce speed”? Got this message while riding Deals Gap today. Raised top slightly and retracted. Also, fully closed top and retracted but still got warning. Warning does not show with top up and locked, just when top is folded in down position...
Riding back to work after lunch yesterday with the top down, totally enjoying the car, the exhaust note and the beautiful day here...low 60's with a clear blue sky. I pull up next to a white Camaro at a red light, window rolls down and the young driver says " let me hear it!". I oblige and...
I change the oil in all my vehicles...I also pre-fill all the new filters with fresh oil before I install. Just wondering how many of the DIY guys do the same?
I know a lot of people utilize the dealership for convenience but I doubt any get this added attention to detail during their oil...
I have a slightly used set of EBC Yellowstuff front pads and a new set of the matching rear pads to fit a PP1 Mustang with the Brembo 6 piston calipers. Asking $175 for set shipped.
I picked up a new Steeda H-Pipe from someone who didn't install it on their car. However, it is for a 15-17 and it is 38" in length...I have a 2018 which uses basically the same H-Pipe but shorter in length, 32" according to Steeda's website. Before I get the chop saw out and start cutting, I...
I have a set of SVE S350, gloss gunmetal finish, that I just curbed. Anyone have any suggestions for a touch up paint code that is a good match for the gloss gunmetal finish?
Great watch in these cloudy, dreary, rainy days of winter.... Catch “Shelby American” and “The 24 Hour War” on Netflix. Directed by Adam Corolla, both are excellent and are much, much better than “Ford vs. Ferrari”.
I once owned a Mazda Miata with speakers in the headrest which worked really well with the convertible top down...Has anyone seen or installed headrest speakers for an S550 convertible?
Not sure if this is the right thread to post but here goes...When running my 18 GT, 6sp through the gears, I noticed I hit the rev limiter before redline...Is this normal? Red line is 7400rpm's and I would figure the limiter would kick in maybe a couple hundred rpm's later, 7600 maybe...
I have a set of Steeda full floating rotors running the stock PP1 pads on my 18...Pads worked fairly well for one track day this past April but took a beating. Roughed up pads with 80 grit on glass and everything seemed fine. However, in the last few weeks pads have gotten really grabby...
Convertible GT PP1 alignment specs for front camber show -0.74, +- 0.75, for both sides...For the PP1 coupe the range is -1.03, +-0.75.
The rear camber for convertible PP1 is -1.19, +-0.75 for both sides vs coupe PP1 of -1.50, +- 0.75.
Any thoughts on why the coupe would have more negative...
I have roughly 15K miles on the stock Pilot Sport 4s tires on my 18 PP1. I have one track day and a fair amount of mountain/curvy road fun on this set. I might be able to get 25K out of these...What kind of life are other owners seeing?
Anyone have experience running the EBC Yellowstuff pads on the street? I occasionally track my car and was looking for a pad that covered all the bases. Stock PP1 pads suffered at my last track day, lots of brake dust and now feel like they just don't have the bite they had before I tracked...
Anybody have a moment in their past/youth that set them on the path to forever being a gearhead? Mine was kind of an odd one...I was probably 12yrs old back in the 70's and my dad had hired a guy to tune up the family RV, a Winnebago Brave, before we went on a summer vacation trip. The...
My 18's PP1 front & rear rotors are starting to rust through the factory grey paint (looks like grey primer) and was wondering if anyone had any experience having them zinc plated? Either yellow or regular zinc. I have looked online but have not found any company as of yet.
