  1. Transmission sometimes hard to get out of 1st when at a stop

    Any update?

  2. Transmission sometimes hard to get out of 1st when at a stop

    Let me know if reducing the runout of the disc fixed your issue. Cause if it does then I bet this would fix mine as well!

  3. Transmission sometimes hard to get out of 1st when at a stop

    My GT500 has this issue as well, it only seems to happen after pushing the clutch in and out a bunch from sitting in traffic and everything being heat soaked due to lack of moving air flow. When this happens I've found if I hold the brakes and release the clutch just to the point it starts to...

    Flagship series 4 all the way! :D

  5. Cortex Watts link installed but think something is wrong

    This really couldn’t be a better example of that. Live and learn.

  6. Cortex Watts link installed but think something is wrong

    Update: Checked all bolts and everything was torqued properly. Measured LCA's at 18.5" center to center, they're adjustable but are as short as they can go already. Reviewed TA install instructions and Cortex recommends LCA's to be set at 17.88"-18.0". So I'm guessing my clearance issue is...

  7. Cortex Watts link installed but think something is wrong

    TA was installed per direction and without shims.This makes since, will be sure to do this.

  8. Cortex Watts link installed but think something is wrong

    The LCA and drop brackets are BMR adjustable, poly body mount and heim axle mount.

This will be the first thing I look at this weekend.No shims are supplied for...

  9. Cortex Watts link installed but think something is wrong

    Had the Cortex watts link on the car for about a month now and everything was good until the other day I starting hearing a metal clank sound when going over bumps. Won't be able to get under the car and full inspect things till this weekend. Hoping I could easily find what the clank was I...

  10. Coilovers

    Anyone know roughly what the time between services would be for JRi SA that's daily drives (10k miles a year) with 1-2 HPDE events a year?

  11. Shelby GT350 Build..."HAN SOLO"

    The one taken from the silver/grey car is sick. That must be what WARP SPEED looks like!

  12. Sedans? We don't need no stinkin' sedans...

    Ford is just following what FCA (Fiat Chrysler Auto) has done and they are doing very well. Dodge is sports cars, Ram/Jeep are trucks and SUV's, only difference is Ford will be one single brand.

  13. Wheels Of Fortune: Signature Wheels

    Bright and shiny!

  14. Full Tilt Boogie GT350 Brake Upgrade for S197 Mustangs

    Good point, that's probably what it is.So the GT350R front brake upgrade kit is $1,800 on there site so I would imagine this kit is going to be in that ball park.

  15. Full Tilt Boogie GT350 Brake Upgrade for S197 Mustangs

    WHAT!I can't wait to find out how they got the rotors to work on a S197 car.
