    On the road again! Brake advice and pictures!

    I'd had three alternators replaced in as many months and back in March the car did it's possessed by Satan thing while I was leaving the shop who had "finally" fixed the thing. Anyway- I was so mad at the car that I just let it sit for the last few months. I finally figured I should just sell...

    Question about coilovers???

    I have these Strano Performance Parts - Part Details They're made by KW and with the possible exception of swapping to a good square tire set up- was the single biggest improvement i made to my car. i've got to be honest- stock these cars are awful when it comes to handling. they're floaty...

    Advice needed for my GT500..

    did some research and ordered up some Kirkey 55 seats in the 16" size with red covers. They're really light- felt comfy and racey- and i also got some adjustable mounts from fathousefabrications so i can adjust the position of them before we end up bolting them in. the whole set up for seats...

    Advice needed for my GT500..

    Hi Guys: I've decided to keep working on making my GT500 the best handling most fun car I can. I've always wanted it to be a race car for the road- and after the suspension work that I've done, the NT01 285/40/r18s on all four corners on 18x11s, it's there. We did the TVS upgrade, with a new...

    2008 GT500 for sale with some cool mods

    this was a stupid idea. i love my car and could never ever replace it for $30,000 and no one would ever pay me $30,000 for it.

    The S197 Shelby GT500...Too Much Fun to Leave Parked

    i thought about selling mine and doing a different project- but realized that i have the best car in the world (for me). anything else i would buy would cost me more money, be slower, and at best just be "different". my 2008 GT500 has just about 70,000 miles on it now. i bought it a year ago...

    2008 GT500 for sale with some cool mods

    Hi guys: I'm just putting this out there as a feeler- because I might do something really stupid and buy a De Tomaso Pantera basket case- that will be my rest of my life project- and if I can get what I want for the Mustang I'll be well on my way! My 2008 GT500 has just under 70,000 miles on...

    New wheels and tires on my ‘08

    Hi guys: Just figured I’d check in. I swiped s guard rail on the 805 a few weeks back trying to avoid someone merging into me. I had ordered a set of custom CF5s in 18x11 as track wheels but they were still a few weeks out at the time and I really didn’t want to use them on the street anyway. So...

    What mods can I do next???

    Next up for me is to finally gut the interior and install my cage and corbeau seats and my Barton shifter. Then we’ll throw the JBA catless x-pipe on and put some mufflers back on the car and take her back to the dyno.

    What mods can I do next???

    I’ve got a 2008 GT500 that we did a TVS in, a bunch of suspension stuff, a giant heat exchanger, BAP, 1090 injectors, a Macleod RXT clutch and I’ve still got to get around to either selling or installing my fays2 Watts link. I just made the best handling mod though and could not be happier with...

    Muffler suggestions on my 07 GT500

    i really like the FR500 axle backs. Nothing sounds better to my ear and they're louder than stock but quieter than the really loud stuff that's out there.

    New 18x10 square wheels with NT01s

    Thanks for the kind words! The car is coming along. I’m going to use a junk yard trunk lid for the blade spoiler so I can return the thing to stock if I don’t like it. I was thinking about going for a carbon trunk lid- but that’d be like a fat kid ordering a Diet Coke to wash down his Big Mac...

    New 18x10 square wheels with NT01s

    it’s coming along! We got the 18x10 square set up on the thing with Nitto 275/40/18 NT01s. I’m thinking it’s sitting a bit low and it’d benefit from being able to use a bit more of its suspension travel. I’ll adjust the struts in the morning and see. The tire and wheel combo looks great to...

    New Race Wheels and Tires!!!

    Wheels should show up tomorrow according to the tracking with the tires coming later in the week. I know there are better tires for circuit racing- but these tires will be great for what I’m doing with them according to the folks at Hoosier. I was willing to sacrifice ultimate performance for...

    New Race Wheels and Tires!!!

    hi guys: i figured i'd give you an update on my GT500 road race build. way back when this project started- i worked with Sam Strano at stranoparts.com to come up with the proper offsets to allow me to run 18x11 tires all around. We went with forgeline CF5s in silver- which should look great...

    72lb Bosch Injectors $450 shipped

    Hi guys! I bought these on this forum when I bought my TVS. They've never been installed and are still shrink wrapped in the original package as they came to me. Foir whatever reason, my shop wanted to use their own ID1050x injectors instead of these....and I didn't feel like pushing it with...
