    If you’re on Long Island too I’d love to meet up. I live 15 min away, I have the FP track handling kit on my car but I bought it used from a friend and bushings are worn out so I’m going through my own battles here lol (see full post)

    For those of you that are badmouthing Trent, you should all shut your mouths. He was one of the guys that designed and developed Cortex with Filip. He didn’t move with Cortex because this is his home. Trent will do what you want to your car. He... (see full post)

    ok I thought that too but after I made that post. As long as buying a new set camber plates will replace that worn out bushing in the top strut mount, than yes that’s what I’ll do. I didn’t run any of this by him as this was something I thought... (see full post)

    The answer to your question is yes. By doing this you will have from a front end kit what Ford calls their "Ford Performance Street Kit". Since you are going to buy a set of camber plates, why not buy them for the F.P. struts? I'm not...

    Coming off rude with lots of assumptions here, but a fair intrepretation from your perspective. If I had said I wanted them on anyways, they would be on the car. Again, I intentionally left out many details.Tim, I do value your input and it's... (see full post)

    It doesn't really matter. All their spring combos suck. (see full post)
  • TeeLew replied to the thread Suspension soft?.
    It means that the mechanic doesn't really want to do the work and so he offers something easy to placate the customer. He thinks to himself, "This dipsiht won't know the difference anyway, why am I going to do all this work when it's not going to... (see full post)

    Track day at Blackhawk went well! I set a new PB 1:28.56. My optimal lap was 1:28.28. I took my dad and friend Jon along for a couple rides. The new surface had so much grip. I was getting used to the new brake pads and putting more and more...

    My sentiment - until you're four-wheel drifting everywhere, you don't need aero. Like many, I put aero on before I needed it - didn't help me get much faster. Getting in a Miata and on a driving sim did that. Aero makes it harder to find the...

    That GC coilover kit looks really nice but now at $2400 you’re within shouting distance of the entry level Cortex kit, which has the true outboard rear coilover setup. I’m a fan of that. Rear damper adjustment is a hassle on the Cortex kit however.

    If you care about more than sticking plastic decorative bits on your car then stop shopping at American Muscle. Please.

    Doctors and Mechanics often prescribe the treatment which is best for themselves, not their patrons. I'm pretty sure I talked to this guy once. I think they'll make a great couple. Enjoy.

    The GC set up shaved 3 seconds off my lap times.The DSC controller can be installed and removed in a matter of minutes. I wouldnt do a DSC with other springs unless you want to do your own programming. They program it to work with FP or OE...

    Update:Took it back to Ford to my buddy and took off the FP track handling pack strut/spring. Here’s the stock PP1(black) vs the track handling kit I bought used from my other friend who tracked his 2015 GT in NASA T2 (blue). Thought I could... (see full post)
