The stock clutch chattered/shuddered in my '08 quite often up until it finally started slipping and had to be replaced at 27k miles. I checked the VIN and he did have the original clutch and trans replaced under the TSB. He got rid of the car in '15 and only had around 6k miles on it when I...
My '08 is lowered about 1.25" in the front with Hotchkis sway bar (also on the rear) and a set of BMR adjustable endlinks. I have to replace the top joint on the driver side link because the boot split but I was wondering something....
Since the car is lowered, should the endlinks be adjusted...
I noticed that I hit the rev limiter way sooner than expected last night. From my SCT tuner I had neutral rev set to 5500 and drive rev set to 6450. It was hitting the limiter right at about 5500 rpm while messing around with a friend last night.
Is there a switch or sensor that tells the ECU...
Out of the blue, it seems the keyless entry doesn't want to respond anymore starting yesterday. Tried different remotes I've verified worked previously and same issue, even with new batteries.
Where is the system located within the car? I'm assuming somewhere under the dash but not sure what to...
The original color was pretty nice but I was never really excited about it. The new color is amazing and exactly what I was looking for. It's called Gold Rubbed Bronze. Also got new rubber all around. Potenza Pole Position S04 255-35-20 on the front and Potenza RE-71R 285-35-20 on the rear...
My '08 has HIDs but I'm hoping to find brighter set of bulbs. Found a couple sites that sell them but not sure what's good or junk.
Any sites to check out for upgraded bulbs or kits?
Saw a commercial for Mobil 1 that supposedly has proven "year long" performance or 20k miles between changes.
Would you feel comfortable putting that much time and miles on a single oil/filter change?
What's the longest you've gone between changes in your Shelby? I change mine every 3-4...
Wow...I've my '08 for just over two years now and while the stock shifter wasn't a problem, I never realized how much of a POS it was until I had the MGW installed today. Unbelievable difference in quality of shifts now!!
The RXT, while it catches quite low to the floor, feels amazing. Grabs...
Is the SW catted H pipe that much better than the MRT?
Granted it starts at 2.5" for the stock headers, expands to 3" for the main body then back down to 2.5" to connect to rest of the system. Are the cats better than what's found on the MRT pipe? I'm thinking the SW is slightly louder due to...
Just need to rant about this because it's so annoying.
Is there something special about the rear in these cars that they don't like gears other than originally equipped? We installed FRPP 3.73s in my '08 and they whined from day 1. My friend reset them and installed a different pinion bearing...
I just bought the 13p map update DVD but can't find anything on how to actually update the unit! How the hell do you install/update with the DVD?
There isn't anything in the manual or the settings of nav system...I feel like it's going to be something stupidly obvious.
What bit did you use? Harbor Freight has a bunch of bits for Dremels, just want to make sure I don't buy a whole bunch of unnecessary bits.
I'm assuming I'll need a bit for cutting away the bulk of the material but what to use for smoothing it afterwards?
Really worth going with the 3" catted H for factory connections over the MRT catted H pipe for a 2008 GT500?
Only have a 2.5" pulley, CAI and tune with a cut and clamp ProChamber...can't imagine the difference of 3" piping would be too noticeable, especially since the manifold and catback...
I really liked the sound of the PC on my '06 GT that I had a while ago but they don't list the PC2105 for the GT500. I saw a thread from a while ago that someone asked AmericanMuscle and they also said it doesn't fit the GT500. Got curious so I asked Mac directly and they said the cut and clamp...
I got the KR axleback for my '08 but the tips never looked right to me. Too small, narrow and flat edge versus slash cut.
Found some Pypes 2.5" to 4.5" black slash cut and couldn't be happier! I had to spray some black paint inside the tips after mounting because the bare metal from the cuts...
New GT500 owner as well. Picked it up a couple Saturdays ago...only 6k miles!
Caught my eye when I was browsing wheels/tires online and thought they would look good against the black. Turned out I like them even more in person!
Stock wheels and original tires that only have 6,400 miles on them.
Is there any interest for these? They're in very good condition. None of the wheels appear to have any damage as the previous owner rarely drove the car and took meticulous care of it.
Make an offer!! Local pickup in Columbia...
