    Sticky tires besides DR's..

    Help me pick a good sticky street tire besides nittos. Michelin PS-2, bfg KD, bridgestone re050, Pirelli Rosso, Yokohama Advan sport and lastly Toyo RA's (r compound, but 8/32 tread depth). I know nitto DR's r hard to beat for the street, but just wanted to see if others are pretty good.

    3600 stall is in!!!!!!!!!!

    I meant to post here when I did the install, but forgot. I recently put in my BC-auto 3600 stall/40k gvw trans cooler and a retune. Man this car just rips from a standstill and can spin the DR's in 1st, 2nd and a hard chirp in 3rd. It pulls from a dig like I added a 100 shot or something and it...

    Mach 1 Changing Predator tune?

    I recently bought an 03 mach/auto with some mods. The previous owner installed 4:10's, bassani offrd x/c back, ported manifold, c&l intake and mass air and suspension. He had the car tuned a year ago (professionally) and had 3:55 gears at the time, but never had it retuned for the 410's. Now the...

    MMR stage 1's.

    How good are Modular mustang racing heads? Anyone running them? Looking for a reasonably priced head to go with the vt stage 1's I just purchased. Im leaning toward's fox lakes stage 1's, but they require the originals be sent back to them. I know MPH heads are top notch, but they are about...

    Need some advice on a head/cam pkg.

    Im thinking of going with the patriot stage 2 heads/cheapest so far and some sort of stage 2 cams (vt,comps,crower...). Are the stage 2 pkg's too much flow for my current mods and my car being a DD? Ive heard of head gasket/oiling issues with the patriots back in the day, but they've supposedly...

    Steering shafts?'s

    Looking to replace my stock steering shaft with either the flaming river or maximum motorsports one for more header clearence. Are they the same diameter as stock or a bit smaller. I need about 1/8" or 1/4" clearence from the header (1-5/8" mid length) and heard that these two are a bit smaller...

    Header problems...

    Is this normal for JBA stainless headers. Some sort of bubbling going on and per the installer, stainless doesnt do that, chrome maybe cause its a coating, but stainless shouldnt be bubbling at all. Im thinking maybe jba sent me the chrome one's instead of the stainless by mistake, but my part#...

    Raced a Hertz shelby gt today.

    I shouldnt be posting street races, but what the heck. On the H3 freeway (Oahu, HI) saw a blk/gold shelby gt (rent a car) heading towards Kaneohe Marine base so I pull up beside it and give it a thumbs up...as it was pretty nice and driven by an older caucasian man. He points ahead as if he...

    Please post picks of H&R ss springs.

    Thinking of a redo for my front suspension as Im tired of the noisy coilovers. I have kyb-agx struts/shocks(rear) now and just wanna swap out the front springs. My drag springs in the rear are a 1.5" drop and I think the 1.75" drop in front will look good.

    Headers do help!!

    Some friends and I went to our 1/4 mile race spot last night and man, Im so happy with the results. 1st race was against an auto mach 1/04 (4:10's, slp off rd x/LM2's, jlt, bfg kd tires and custom tune) which I beat him by 2 cars, second race by 3 cars...he was not happy to say the least. Second...

    JBA's are in!

    Pretty excited about it when I got my car back today. Drove it around and it seems to pull harder, or at least the rpm's climb faster. Couple of problems I noticed...the steering/power assist doesnt seem to be as smooth as before. kinda like the power assist is fighting with me. Feels like its...

    JBA header???'s

    I ordered the JBA mid length headers and noticed that they come in 2 diff tube sizes. I have the 1-3/4" tube, but they also have the 1-5/8" tubes on thier web site. Does it matter between the 2 sizes. May be a tighter fit in the engine bay is the only thing I could think of and hope they dont...

    Bassani mid length headers?

    JBA's are out...Mis-quoted price by dealer. I know Bassani sells a mid length for 99-04 gts(manual trans). Anyway to make them work for a auto trans? I really want some mid length's, unless there is a long tube that sits high enuf off the ground to run safely. My car sits about 1 3/4" off the...

Anyway, looking for at least 40rwhp when I install my vt stage 1 or 2's right after. (headers/cams combo). The shop has to custom extend my slp x...

    VT stage 1 cams and headers?????'s

    Will be doing the stage 1's pretty soon. Want to put the JBA cat forwards (headers) on and wondering how much total rwhp could I expect from the combo. Want to put long tubes, but car is too low unless there is a long tube with good ground clearence that I can use...Any recommendations for long...
