- TeeLew replied to the thread Advice on setup for street and track!.Yep, and they really fight rear locking. ABS can only do so much, especially since they all run the torsen, which screws you for braking. There just isn't enough diff lock to keep things happy.In general, any sort of front-engine GT-ish car... (see full post)
I have the GT500 dampers on my car now with 240F/850R FP springs, and have been very happy with this setup as a comfortable street and casual track day car. These spring rates are also similar/better than the GT350R, so I would consider it prime...-
Gunslinger55 replied to the thread Suspension soft?.Cool didn’t know anyone else made one. What are the helper springs for? Does it have a threaded perch for ride height? (see full post)
RinerAuto posted the thread 2013-2014 FORScan Profile in S197 Mustang Tech - GT, Boss 302 and GT500.Does anyone have a 2013-2014 Mustang FORScan profile that they wouldn't mind sharing? Can reach out over private message.I did an ABS swap on my car but since I don't have a PCM, FORScan can't connect. This means I can't use the brake bleed...-

kevfrank replied to the thread S550 Stock-ish.@Bill Pemberton Do you remember the max negative front camber you got with the MM camber plates? And were you on lowering springs? At recent events at Road Atlanta, I feel less confident with the brakes into 10A (after the long back straight). I... (see full post)-
Completely understand, there are many folks with M&M Camber plates and as I mentioned I had a set on my GT 350, and I forgot that I also had a set on my Boss 302 LS. If you are going to Road Atlanta do check those pads as you will be eating them...

2860lbsBoth Jags in those videos were prepped to GT2 spec. Both had 16” wheels and were running legit slicks. And both did have four-wheel discs. Neither was a huge problem. The red one gave chase for the entire second race. But it was good fun...

On the front I've run 185 (stock), 220, 275, 450, 500 #/in springs. I've got a pair of 400's in my spring box. Every increase in front spring rate has given a step in performance. If I were tuning this car for Ford, I'd probably have 300's on the...

Back when I had my 2017 GT 350 I set it up similar to yours, though I had a bit sticker tires ( R8 Purple Crack Rubber ) ,haha. I also was running a set of G-Loc racing pads ( R18s in front and R10s in the rear ), but the car is very capable...
