    Lightweight Enkei PF01 wheels with TPMS for sale

    HARD to beat Enkei's as far as quality, weight, and price. Their F1 look-a-like(the RPF1 IIRC)...the model they make that looks like the one they make/made for F1, weighs in around a PALTRY 18lbs +/- in the narrower 18" sizes.. They've come up with a way to manufacture wheels that make 'em as...

    Boss vs. Ferrari F430 and Porsche 911 Turbo Video

    I could EASILY be wrong, but gwadamn is that doesn't look exactly like the roads in between/around Palomar mtn/Julian.. A pink or orange house on the left in the beginning even looked familiar to me. I've been dropped on my head a few times however, so I revert back to my first 5 words. Edit...

    18x10 +45 all around

    18X10's...I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they weigh closer to 30. FWIW, Enkie is pretty-much THE track wheel of choice for the typical track junkie, as they're forged, and weigh under 20lbs in 'normal' sizes. They're also not bad price-wise.. I got a quote for $1300 for a set of 18x9.5s...

    Thoughts on whether our Boss 302's will have future value.

    I personally don't see anywhere near the type of collector status as the original Boss, and here's why. The original Shelby GT500s are also worth a ton, and when they were re-released a few years ago, Ford said that they'd be 'limited production'. Turns out that didn't end up being the case, and...

    Boss track review plus M3 beating

    I like motorcycle magazines for testing head's-up compared to car rags. I know a lot of the guys who write for U.S. bike mags, and a lot of 'em being racers, they understand how important TIRES are to a test. So you know what they do..? They freaking install the SAME TIRES ON BOTH BIKES! In this...

    The Boss 302 and the MT82 Issues.

    Thanx guys..! For those of you that are getting the grinding.. Has it stayed consistent, or has it gotten worse/better over time? I got rid of my GT with roughly 2800 miles on it...anybody here have 5k or more miles with the grinding? If so, I assume it started early like mine did, but I'd like...

    The Boss 302 and the MT82 Issues.

    Without going into great detail, I just got rid of a '12 GT with the MT82, and bought a Boss. The GT experienced what I would term as the 'Whole Enchilada' of trans problems. I know the two cars share the same trans, and while you'll find a plethora of threads dedicated to the many trans...

    Differential Vent Tube venting on track days

    Sure it will. Firstly, when dealing with fill lines, you ALWAYS need to have the car sitting on LEVEL ground. Secondly, if it's over-filled and above the bottom threads, it'll drain out until a little below. After that it's simply a matter of sucking out the amount of fluid necessary to get the...

    Ford Credit Customers.. Need Help NOW!! PLEEEEAAAAAAASSSE.....

    Having owned a Kawasaki dealership, I can agree with you unequivocally ;D. Typically banks code the various 'plans', and with what I sold at least, you first input the vehicle, then they give you a drop-down menu of the available 'plans'. If you 'sold' one that isn't available on the particular...

    Ford Credit Customers.. Need Help NOW!! PLEEEEAAAAAAASSSE.....

    That's funny... that's EXACTLY what I did with my '12 GT. I took it to a local dealer a couple weeks ago to see what kind of deal they could give on a Boss, and the entire shift circled the car and couldn't tell it wasn't 'Real'. Kept asking me how I liked it, and whether I had the track key...

    Ford Credit Customers.. Need Help NOW!! PLEEEEAAAAAAASSSE.....

    Thanx man..!. I just called 'em and told them to go pound sand. I'm on a really tight schedule today, and don't have time to screw around with those D-Bags. I told them time and again to give me the BOTTOM LINE, and I'll either take it or leave it. I have 10 days in Hawaii starting tonight, so...

    Ford Credit Customers.. Need Help NOW!! PLEEEEAAAAAAASSSE.....

    I'm working a deal on a Boss right now, but it's 2 hours from my house, and I'm getting on a plane for vacation in (now) 3 hours. I need to know what Ford Credit's tier 1 rate(s) are right now. The dealer started me at 7.99, then came down to 7.29(72mo)-I walked, now they're calling me and...
