Not sure if this made it in a post anywhere. Stumbled on it in "Google News"

Wondering if anyone has experience with tire & suspension set ups? When I take a turn with decent "sweep" to it, I feel like my front tires are plowing. I have to stay easy on the gas cuz it seems like they want to go straight and the rear had plenty more bite. I know my tire set up isn't great...
Quick history...A little over a year ago, I had TVS installed with other mods. It was dyno tuned by (a reputable tuner) and has had stalling issues ever since. The stalling occurs in almost every case when decelerating in neutral. There were several revised tunes sent to adjust the 'decay rate'...
A friend of a friend is interested in my car and threw out a number of $40k.
I've done zero research but was hoping to see what you all thought about it. I'm not sure I want to let it go but for the right price I'd highly consider it.
All mods in signature except tint, Stillen splitter, shift...
Does anyone have any experience with the MightyVac?
A buddy of mine has one and uses it with no issues on his Benz. I'd like to try it myself as it eliminates having to catch the oil in a bucket, etc and only the filter needs to be removed and changed.
The concern is that he said some cars have...
Just wondering what kind/brands are being used and what kind of differences you all notice over stock. I understand in principle but feedback on real world conditions is what I'm looking for.
I'm lowered an inch up front plus the added weight of the S/C and inch and half out back
I know a lot of guys have them and Ive mostly heard nothing but good. I really dislike my RTR over 3000rpm. They sound like a higher pitch or something. I like deep grumbling... Anyway my question is, is there a difference between the true GT500 with quad tips and the ones made for GTs? Is led...
Is it necessary to have an oil separator on the drivers side as well as passenger side. Currently I have a JLT on the pass side, but have seen some of the GT500 guys with both sides. I don't want oil ruining my blower (duh).
FS - RTR mufflers ****SOLD
These are now for sale. Originally a feeler thread but I've purchased black ceramic coated GT500 quad tips
These sound great at idle and aren't loud at all. BUT I really dont like the sound when I'm above 2500 RPM with these, too loud! And i'm not impressed with...
***SOLD***FS - 2014 Brembo wheels & tires
*********SOLD**********10/19/13
Want to sell all 4. About 1000 miles on them with about half of that highway to install mods in my Sig. One wheel has a tiny rash/ding. $800+shipping or best offer.
Willing to meet half way if local to the NYC area
I tried to search but couldn't find anything on this although I'm sure I've seen it before.
Anyway my original tires were 255/40/19 (I think) from the original Brembo wheels. I'm now on 315/35/20 on the rear. I know my speedo is off (that's what she said) but can't figure out where in the...
I'm pretty pissed right now! I've had some issues with my idle since getting my mods mid May. First was dumb with the air filter falling off. Once fixed found that car still stalled here and there. After loading a new tune to adjust the idle not much has changed. I find myself constantly having...
After having all my goodies installed about a month ago I had an issue with my air filter. It fell off, so my car wouldn't idle. After figuring that out, and it did improve the situation, I still have issues with my idle or lack thereof.
Seems that whenever I go anywhere between half/full...
When I got my tuner the car already had the appropriate tune loaded with all the goodies. Or so I thought. After my debacle with the air filter falling off, the idle apparently wasn't set high enough to hold vacuum during braking and stalls often.
A new tune file was e-mailed to me to...
I'd like to do the whole thing for improved handling/lowered ride along with improving traction but after dumping a wad of cash on the motor I'm a bit limited in terms of budget.
If you had to rank suspension mods what would you consider the single most important and why? also easiest in...
For lack of a better term since we can't drive in mud, any suggestions on the cheapest option while still looking decent? I see them for over $100 for just the rear in carbon fiber but I think that's a bit excessive.
I was hoping to get some input/thoughts on the best way to set up my suspension given what I hope to accomplish with my ride. Hopefully I can get some good ideas.
As you can see in my sig, i've added some ponies and with the limited driving time i've had so far, I'm pretty happy. The "pull" is...
With the install of the Rousch TVS I was told the stock strut tower brace wouldn't fit and was not put back on the car.
Is it worth getting the BOSS? Will the BOSS clear?
I just had all my mods installed and got my ride back yesterday. I was extremely excited until it wouldn't stay running!
When I picked it up it was mentioned that the car would/could stall here and there due to the S/C & vacuum issues (after heavy braking, etc).
When I began my trek home it...
I was showing a good friend my new ride this past weekend and when he got out of the car to look it over he pointed at the rear brakes and laughed "look how small they are" I laughed too but got me thinking.
I have the 14" Brembo's up front. the rears are only 11" (and change) i believe...
I ordered my new ride with the rear backup camera and its really cool. The current rear spoiler is ok but I like the look of the GT500 much better. Has anyone had any success with this combo? Can the camera be accomodated in the GT500 spoiler or perhaps be moved someplace else in the rear?
Looking for a reputable shop in my area to install a super charger. I've been in contact with JDM and they are booked thru August. Any suggestions?
Thanks
