    Anyone getting a repeating clunking/grinding in the front end when turning full lock?

    I've got this problem with my 2011 in the cold weather. Whenever it's been sitting in 40 or below weather for a while, I turn the wheel to pull out of my space, when I roll forward or backward on either side I get this clunking or grinding noise in what seems the strut tower area--happens over...

    Are the 2011 blowers setup to NOT kick-in while in first gear?

    I just noticed today while taking her out for some photos, that the SC doesn't function at all in first gear, even when flooring it through to redline. It almost seems as if it wants to, but doesn't. In second gear it starts to kick in though throughout the remaining gears. I never noticed...

    SVTPP suspension versus standard GT500 suspension

    Everything I've been reading as far as specs go show detailed info on the standard GT500 suspension, like the front being "Independent MacPherson strut with “Reverse L” lower control arm, 34mm stabilizer bar" and the rear being "Three-link solid axle with coil springs, Panhard rod, 24mm...

    Is your GT500 paint all marred up?

    Well, a few weeks after I got my car from the dealer in Fort Worth (RLB auto group) I found that whatever they used to hide the excessive marring and scratches had worn off. Up to that point I hadn't even washed or dried the car by hand and so I know it wasn't from me. So I just spent a...

    2007-2009 GT500 performance modifications

    I'd like to get a feel for what the "common" setup is for this vehicle in terms of engine upgrades. I've done some research online, and on a couple forums (this one included) and wanted to create this thread as a confirmation of my findings. From what I can tell...there's three ways to go...
