    HELP!! AFR 185s + MAC longtube = NO FIT!!!!

    Plus.....that exhaust system was soooo obnoxiously loud ...I had to change it out. I couldn't take it any more. The one time I drove from Georgia to Virginia and back ....I wore hearing protection to keep from going deaf. It was bad.

    HELP!! AFR 185s + MAC longtube = NO FIT!!!!

    Ultimately I had the Prochamber bent to match my headers. Totally sucks, because it was supposed to be a bolt on system .....but I was overseas at the time too. If you have an opportunity to work with MAC and resolve the issue without any further expense to you ....I'd try that.

    Roush Aftermarket wheels for XP8....what offset??? HELP

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!! I calculated the specs on your wheels minus the offset and they should protrude 4.33 inches from the mounting surface of the wheel. Now, the 18" STERNS I have are 18x9 +19 offset, and calculating that out means these wheels should protrude 4.25 inches. That's barely a...

    Roush WINNER! Largest Saleen EBay :taco:.

    I was pretty sure he wasn't talking about me which is why I chose my words to be "slightly offended".......because a gross over reaction toward a comment not intended for me would be embarrassing. I was just hardening my integrity with the folks on this site. Yeah...I forget....George always has...

    Roush WINNER! Largest Saleen EBay :taco:.

    I'm just a little offended by that statement there. Probably 95% of the STERNS sold on Ebay the last 4 years have been offered by me...and I have NEVER run a scam auction...as a matter of fact, there is a set up there now. So, if I've offered 95% of the STERNS available on Ebay during the last 4...

    Roush 3-Piece Sterns on eBay...

    I have two sets.....and dammit if they aren't perfect offset. I'm like 99% sure they are. They are not in perfect condition, though. They are also not proper centerbore, they would need to be machined. I will be in a position to offer a set to you come late October. I will send you pictures of...

    Roush 3-Piece Sterns on eBay...

    My credentials? The 90 SC SALEEN that sold on Ebay that everyone has been talking about, and I guess the wheels that sold for $5000 (supposedly) came off that exact same 1990 SC? Yeah, I sold those wheels originally to that person....oh and George, I sold him his too. Hi George, I didn't know...

    Roush Saleen Stern Wheels

    Is there any way you can get me the address to the STERN company? Are they in Japan? If they are......then they very well could be still in business. It's just what I was told from a friend, who is in Japan, who did some research for me. Maybe they've redirected their marketing strategy. I've...

    Roush Saleen Stern Wheels

    I do have another set of STERN 1-piece wheels I am refurbishing to. You will probably not believe me but I bought them for 10 dollars. True. It's been a hassle so far but I am trying to sandblast the wheels down to metal again. I just ordered a polishing kit that attaches to a drill with a few...

    Roush Saleen Stern Wheels

    I had 1-piece STERN wheels on my 1988 SALEEN #420. The car was black and the chrome looked really good.....until it chipped one day and the wheel oxidized up over the lip...the chrome kept chipping and then the wheel didn't hold air anymore. I ended up having the chrome removed and powdercoating...

    5 lug conversion , what wheels ??

    Don't be so cookie cutter with your wheel selection. My opinion would be to sport the cash and get a custome set of 3-piece anything wheels...whatever strikes your taste. There is a new set of SALEEN speedline or STERN wheels over few weeks on Ebay....sure, they're expensive but they hold their...

    You will be unhappy to know I found out more information on STERN (the company. Parent company HINODEX (and smaller division: STERN) have gone bankrupt and are no longer in business. I found this out when I E-mailed a friend of mine in Japan. You see, I have a set of 3-piece STERNS that I am...

    I can offer a little insight of the STERN wheel manufacturer. They are a small division of a Japanese company called HINODEX.....they were the "High Quality Division" I have tried 1000 times to get ahold of the company, but their www.hinodex.co.jp never works and the 1-piece and 3-piece wheels...
