Burnt RSTs are probably due to improper installation or bleeding. They are better than stock due to mid plate (the one between the 2 clutch plates) being thicker. My stock clutch failed due to this plate getting hot and warping causing all sorts of issues under normal driving conditions. I...
I have an off-road H-pipe sitting in my garage for stock exhaust manifolds is someone wants to buy them. Came off of my 2007 GT500, PM me if interested.
Finally...back up and running! No noises that shouldn't be there!
New parts:
Water Pump
1 Idler Pulley
Timing Chain Tensioners
Gaskets and bolts
No extra parts left on workbench (LOL)
Re-inspected everything and cleaned as I went and had access to parts we can't reach when assembled...
The front cover is off - and all the timing components are intact. Tensioners, chains, and guides are in good working orders. Cam gears are also good. FYI - GT500 uses aluminum guides arms. Learn something new everyday.
Odd thing though, before I started pulling things apart, I checked all...
I have a lethal performance off-road h-pipe for stock exhaust manifolds 100$ We would just need to work out delivery - cause shipping cost is pretty high.
~63,000 miles
Water pump bolts are out - now I need to coerce the pump to release from the block (bigger hammer). Then I should be able to pull the cover off.
I have not removed the throttle body yet. Removed the oil cooler, and then the mount for the oil cooler, alternator, and filter...
I started disassembly yesterday...I have drained both coolants and removed degas tanks, removed most hoses, removed the belts and all pulleys, removed spark plugs, removed battery and tray, loosened valve covers, removed thermostat housing, loosened power steering and laid aside, removed CAI...
I run R1 concepts on my GT500, but not the big brake kit. I used them at 4 track days (Charlotte, CMP, and Road Atlanta) now and have no regrets. combined with motul brake fluid, have had no brake fade or scary moments. No squealing, but do have more brake dust.
Was out driving around on Saturday and started hearing a constant ticking/rattling noise. I had to stop somewhere, when I got back in the car and started it, the noise started again after a few seconds. When I arrived at the house, popped the hood and it is definitely from the front of the...
I bought mine of Rockauto. Don't remeber the part number. You might be able to cross reference the part number from their site and get them from other parts providers.
I have always had running issues with extensions. No CEL, just didn't run right.
I have an off-road H-pipe I am willing to sell. It came off a 2007 GT500, and should fit. From Lethal performance. Went to long tubes and just need to get out of the garage.
