    Upper rear spring isolator question

    I have a 2014 GT500 with a Moser M9 rear. When driving around, if I hit a relatively large bump, there will be a quick, sharp squeak sound from the rear of the car. I was poking around underneath today looking for the cause, and noticed that the upper spring isolator on the passenger side rear...

    Anyone ride a newer Suzuki vStrom 1050?

    I have a co-worker with a 2020 vStrom 1050xt. He wants to get rid of it and will sell it to me for 8k. Mint, 3500 miles. He rides it like an old man. Seems like a great deal. Anyone here ride one of these? Opinions?

    Tactile transducer/ bass shaker for home theater

    I’m in the process of rebuilding my home theater. Decided to try installing a tactile transducer/ “bass shaker” inside my recliner. I’m running it off an old sub amp and have it crossed it over at 80hz. So basically when you have it on, it shakes the chair during explosions and other low...

    2014 TPMS Sensors - Replace or Not

    I have a 2014 GT500 and I just ordered a complete set of new tires. The stock TPMS sensors work fine, but they are now 7 years old and I'm guessing they are approaching the end of their battery life. Would you buy a new set and have them put in while the tires are off, or just leave them...

    Badger Mountain Supply Gun Store: Stay Away

    I just wanted to make as many people aware as possible that if you shop at Badger Mountain Supply, you're asking for trouble. It's an online gun store based out of Washington State. I saw some mags on their website that nobody else had in stock, and I didn't research who I was buying from. I...

    9" Rear End Bearing Retainer & Spacer Assembly

    I have a Moser M9 / 9 inch rear on a 2014 GT500. Stupid question: Are the gaps in the “C” shaped bearing spacer and retainer plate supposed to be offset from each other or should they be aligned? The retainer plate is the outer metal plate that I'm holding. The spacer is behind that and is...

    Rear wheel bearing (Moser M9)

    I have a 2014 GT500 with a moser M9 rear. There was a whistling noise coming from the passenger side rear wheel. I took the axle shaft out to look at the bearing (see pics). It feels like there might be a bit of resistance when turning the bearing by hand. The inner race looks like it’s got...

    Moser M9 squealing / whistling noise (vid inside)

    I have a Moser M9 with a wavetrac on my 2014 GT500. The car has ~10k miles on it. I don't abuse it or take it to the strip. Stock rear brakes. It's making a squealing / whistling noise from what I think is the passenger side rear tire. I jacked it up and ran it through the first few gears to...

    Everyone has guns; who has body armor?

    Just curious. I made it an anonymous poll if you don't want people knowing what you have. I have some used LEO Level II stuff for home defense purposes; expired, but better than nothing.

    Spark Plug read

    I was poking around under the hood and decided to pull a couple of plugs as a random health check. I’m on 93 octane; stock internals; about 17-18 lbs of boost; Lund tune. Any opinions?

    Opinions on suits

    The last suit I bought was from Sears in 2005. It was cheap and not very stylish to begin with, and I'm 40 lbs heavier now, so I needed something new...something to wear maybe once a year. So I started shopping and found a clearance suit at Jos. A. Bank online. It's a charcoal herringbone...

    N2MB WOT Box Rev Limiter Question

    I've got a N2MB WOT Box in my car. I was thinking I'd like to take advantage of the built-in rev limiting feature and adjust it to something more conservative (let's say 6300 RPM). Do you think using the N2MB's rev limiter poses any undue risk vs just relying on the factory limiter? In...

    2018 GT with Roush TVS package vs 14 GT500; speculation only

    A guy at work is getting a 6-speed 2018 GT PP1 with a dealer-installed Roush package / 2.65 TVS blower. From what I understand, they make about 700 crank HP. I'm wondering how we will fare against each other if we line up one day. I have a 14 GT500 with a 2.8LC KB Stage 3 kit @ ~17-18 PSI...

    Factory boost gauge

    Well, this forum seems to be a little slow lately, so let see if I can start a conversation. Background: I have a 2014 GT500 with a stage 3 2.8L liquid-cooled KB kit. It has a catless H-pipe; exhaust is otherwise factory. I'm running 93 octane on a conservative 92 octane Lund tune. It's...

    KB 5" Intake heat shielding

    The KB "Gimme 5" intake comes with a nice contoured heat shield that goes under the filter and runs along the side of the motor, but there is nothing forward of the filter that fits around the intake tube and/or seals to the hood. Has anyone bastardized something to make the shielding more...

    14 GT500 vs 1000cc Suzuki

    Once upon a time, I went for a ride in the Mexican countryside on a friend's private road. I was cruising and enjoying the sunset when I saw a bike in my rearview, so I slowed it down a bit. He came up behind me and went to pass. As he was on the side of me, I revved it to see his reaction...

    Gasoline brand that you prefer for max boost on the street

    I'm just curious what brand of fuel that you trust/prefer when you're running the most boost you can for the available octane in your area. I'm talking about street applications on pump gas; 91 octane, 93 octane, or E85.

    Tried Duragloss on 2014 GT500

    2014 SGM GT500. I've been using Zaino products for the last 17 years and have always been satisfied with it. Last week I decided to give Duragloss a shot. I washed & dried the car, then started with a thin coat of Duragloss 601 & let it haze. After that I put on a coat of Duragloss 105, let...
