I am trying to decide how I am going to go about running my feed/return lines. I have the 1LE Fore system with dual 450's. I know the passenger wheel well is a good place for the regulator, but where is a safe place under the car for the filter (88mm) and lines? I was thinking about putting the...

My car is missing it's lighter socket (part# xc3z-15055-aa) I bought a new one, and all the pieces to mount it. For the life of me I can't figure out how to get it apart so I can mount it. I don't want to force it and break it, but it isn't obvious to me how it comes apart. Can anyone help?

Hi all, So I have had a problem with the battery going dead in my 03 for a while now. It draws 210 milli amps when sitting. I was wondering if hooking up the battery will activate the GEM. I was pulling fuses and when I got to #39 (the GEM) it dropped to 40 mill amps of draw. My procedure is I...

Hey all, had an incident in my 03 and was hoping someone could shed some light. I finally got some replacement wheels and tires on my Cobra and took it out for a drive. It has been sitting for a couple of weeks and needed some heat in it (though it is 105 ambient here now). Anyway, I had been...

Hi all, I could use some advice from you guys that have had different tires on their Cobra's. I picked up my 03 DSG last week. I had to remove the wheels and tires off of it because they didn't fit properly. I am now looking for replacement wheels and tires. I plan to drive the car once a week...

Had a 99 Cobra for about a year in 2011, I had bought it from the 2nd owner who drove it a total of 300 miles the last five years he owned it. I began driving the car pretty regularly and it started eating parts. I ended up trading it in on my 2012 GT since I didn't have the time and space to...

My GT threw a P0420 code yesterday. Guess that's what I get for buying a car with cats.

Putting out a feeler for trading my 91. I bought the car back in 08 almost bone stock (had a shifter, exhaust, gears). Drove it off and on until April of 10' when I took it down and did the 5 lug conversion, MM suspension, and Cobra brakes. Then last year I did a drive train swap on it. I...

I bought this a few months back. Never got around to installing it. I don't hammer on the car hard enough to justify putting it in and I need new exhaust for my LX more. Asking $375 for it, I know that's about what they go for new, but it is new, and you won't have to wait two months to get it...

My wife was hit a few week weeks ago and it was the other driver's fault. We have since gotten the car repaired (about $2500 worth of damage) and I contacted the other driver's insurance about diminished value. I was unaware that there isn't a set scale on what to look for, the adjuster told me...

Took my 91LX. Last year with the old motor/trans it ran a best of 14.79@92. I turned a best of 13.55@107 with a 2.29 60'. I don't get out the track very often due to work so my driving sucks and my 17" Cooper radials were giving me fits all night. 1st and 2nd gear were mostly useless, car didn't...

Wife got in a wreck last night, other driver was at fault (he cut into her lane). KBB books the car at about $7500 for good condition, you think they might total it? Door is done for, rocker is scuffed (don't think it is bent), quarter is crinkled good, bumper cover is...

Was rolling home via Mexico tonight. While I was threading my way through all the idiots that like to drive 15mph under the limit I noticed an IS350 on rims that was tailing me pretty hard. We swapped places a couple of times due to traffic before lining up at a red light. I figured he was going...

Put this together from a few separate incidences from the last month or so, feel free to bash on my driving, video editing, etc. EieN5WEBDF8

Been listening to clips like crazy. I unexpectedly sold my Pype bombs off my car today, so I need to order a new axle back tonight so I can have it by this coming weekend to install on my car. I was going to get GT500 mufflers but I think the Roush is more in line with what I want. I'm having a...

I'm trying to decide here what I want to do. Since my driver side strut mount started making noise (and then stopped), and I'm not happy with my ride height I know I'll be pulling the suspension apart on my 12 GT again soon. I am trying to decide between Koni STR.T struts, H&R SS springs, and MM...

I just noticed my car doing this today when I moved it at break. It's been fine (or I just now noticed it), but at very low speeds (<5mph) I get a creaking kind of pop that I can feel through the brake pedal and hear on the driver's side. You can feel it if you put your hand on the sidewall of...

I searched and I couldn't find the answer to my problem. I bought a set of wheels and tires with sensors from American Muscle. I drove the car to work today without syncing them before hand (didn't have time before work). So halfway to work the light went off for the fault. I got home and I...

Just some quick P&S pics when I was on break today. I'm not real happy with the drop. I'm going to give the springs a little more time to settle, but I don't think they will sink anymore. Before: After:

Tips aren't lined up the same like I would like. Guess I need to bend the brackets somewhat. 2012 GT Pype Bombs vs. stock exhaust - YouTube

I took mine out just now to see if it is tracking straight and my A/C isn't working. It is just blowing ambient air temps. I checked under the hood and the clutch is engaged and spinning on the compressor, but I'm not getting any cold air.

I'm installing lowering springs on my 12 GT. I went to torque the strut-to-spindle bolts to 166ft. lbs. and found my torque wrench only goes up to 150ft. lbs. You guys think I'm cool on being 16ft lbs short? Or should I go looking for a wrench that goes higher? In other news my new wheels and...

These are actually for my 12', but since I didn't have them on the car yet I wanted to see how they fit/looked on my 91. The tires are really too tall, but they fit. They are 18X9's (6.3 backspacing, +30mm offset) with 255/45's on them. They actually fit better then I thought they would. I had...

Hey guys, I'm about to pull the trigger on a new set of wheels and tires for my GT from AM. I decided to call a couple of dealers in my area to see about getting the speedometer re-calibrated since the new rear tires are going to be a little shorter. The guy in the service department was...
