    Replacement tires for stock Pirellis on 2005 GT

    I need to replace my Pirelli P Zero Nero ZR17 on my 2005 GT. I need these tires to be all season, as I will not have dedicated tires for summer/winter driving. As you can see by my name, I am from Philly and need tires that can handle Northeast winters. I like the Pirellis but they tend to...

    TSBs after warranty?

    I just left my local Ford Service Dept. I had the e-brake cable replaced in Feb 2006. It was sticking in the morning on cold days. It was covered under the TSB. I didn't drive the car last winter and this year, I noticed the e-brake still sticks. The service guy told me that since I am one...

    Cervini's --- side exhaust only???

    I am looking to buy the Cervini's C-Series front bumper kit (part #8013). Since the front will be lower than factory, I would need new side skirts and rear bumper (or at least rear valance). My problem is that I don't want the side exhaust. Does Cervini's make side skirts (or rocker panels)...

    Tunes...are they purchased

    When someone buys an aftermarket piece that requires a tune, does the tune need to be purchased or does is come with the part? I know the programmers come with some canned tunes, which I guess can be used with an aftermarket part. But for the custom tunes to match the specific part, who...

    IMCO Exhaust

    I heard a sound clip of IMCO Extreme exhaust and it sounds great. Does anyone have this? I am wondering if it's good for a daily driver. In other words, is it too loud? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

    Mangled Rocker Panel

    I swear, these things only happen to people who TRY to take care fo their cars... I was backed in to the last parking space of the row. On my passenger side was the curb. It was "L" shaped (the L was at the front of the car). As I was pulling out of the space, I turned the wheel to the right...

    Interior Lighting

    Has anyone added any aftermarket lighting to the interior of the car. I think it's either Mercedes or Infiniti that has a light that goes across the side of the driver's side door, across the dash, and continues to the passenger's door. I'm not looking for this much detail but maybe...

    What does it feel like to hit the rev limiter?

    I got on the throttle today and got to almost 70 in second gear. When I realized how fast I was going in such a low gear, I quickly shifted. But I did notice that the seemed to be a "cut-off." It was almost as if I got too high in the RPMs and couldn't go anymore. Was that the rev limiter that I...

    Clicking noise from wheel or under-car area?

    Has anyone noticed a clicking sound coming from underneath their car? It can be heard with the windows down. If you get on the throttle, it gets drowned out, but if you are slowly accelerating from a stop, you here a "tick-tick-tick" noise that gets faster as you speed up. It's driving me nuts...

    WMS intake vs CDC Shaker

    Both of these products are advertised as "Ram Air." They are obviously set in different ways, but I was curious which outperforms the other. Also, the Shaker system is much more expensive. Is it worth the premium in price?

    Air and other filters

    Has anyone found it difficult to find a replacement air filter for our cars? I've looked at my local Pep Boys, Auto Zone, and Advanced Auto Parts, but can't seem to find anything. I DID find an STP filter, but I was out of state at the time and didn't want to chance the filter not fitting...I...

    Voiding warranty

    How come you can buy something like this and not void the warranty, but if I buy a tuner from Diablo, or otherwise, my warranty is voided? http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?PartKeyField=8980

    What makes a Cold Air Kit...a Cold Air Kit?

    I'm new to modding so I apologize for the newbie question. Other than a tube and a filter, what makes a cold air kit? I thought of this question when i saw the Steeda cold air kit that utilizes the stock piping. There has to be something in there other than a filter, a heat shield and a...

    Ok, I did some searching but couldn't really find any opinions about the Xenon or 3d Carbon ducktail spoiler. I want one that covers the factory holes. I know Xenon and 3dCarbon cover the holes. Does anyone have either spoiler? If so, what do you think? Installation process, painting (from...
