    Torsen clunky in cold?

    I have 8000 miles and the diff fluid was changed at 1000 miles. Has anyone noticed the torsens clunking on sharp turns in the cold weather? Is it normal? Its similar to what a spool does in parking lots or on sharp turns. Just started noticing it when it got below freezing and it does get...

    10% IW damper

    I see on the IW website they offer the damper with a dual keyway option and a super duty hub option pretty cheap. How do you add a keyway to your existing crank? And what is the super duty hub option? I installed one of these yesterday and it was not easy. Our 100mm bolts wouldn't grab...

    Whiteline 27mm adijustable rear sway bar

    I installed this piece today. Pretty simple install and a much more efficient design than the factory sway bar. Has 4 way adjustability with the softest hole being about 15% more rigid and the stiffest hole being about 85% more rigid. I am starting on the softest setting and will go from there...

    Canton Garage Sale

    I was looking at fuel and oil filters over at Canton Racing and just checked out the garage sale section. The have a '02-'10 4qt Shelby SC coolant tank for $166 which I think is like $100 off. Not sure because I have a '13 but I think I remember looking at these somewhere hoping they fit my car...

    Tallest Oil Filter

    I was wondering if anyone knows of the top of their head what the max height is for our oil filters? I know the standard fl820 is 3.75" and the Ford racing is 4.0" but wanted to know the max without going outside and dragging my floor jacks across the aggregate driveway at 3:30am. Actually...

    2.4" pulley install

    I'm looking for a little advice on this install. I am in the middle of removing the OEM pulley and it is on VERY tight. I figured it would be pretty tight and all, but I'm talking like red loc-tite tight. I am using the VMP pulley removal tool and the setup is pretty basic and I have read...

    Looking at smaller top pulley

    I hear there has been some slippage with the 2.4" pulleys, but that you can buy the 90mm idler to cure the slippage or a smaller green drive belt. What is the diameter of the stock idler? Which method will work or works best, the belt or the pulley? Also I read one guy saying he was...

    Rear sway bar upgrade

    Anyone swapped out rear sway bars yet? I am looking at the adjustable kit from Whiteline, which looks nice and will offer anyway from 118% to 181% of torsional rigidity of the OEM bar. 18% increase over stock on the softest setting and 81% increase on the stiffest hole. I know there are...

    2013 Paint Defects?

    Anyone finding any defects from factory in the paintwork? I have a spot between my left quarter and bumper cover that is almost tan in color (my car is performance white/blue). Right where the two panels meet it look like the paint didn't take, maybe it is the primer I see if they use a tan...

    PCV Hose/Catch Cans

    Has anyone taken apart the factory PCV hose and fittings to see what the smallest inner diameter is inside? I noticed most all of the catch cans are 3/8" and I was wanting to try and do a custom can with 1/2" or 5/8" fittings and hose, but if there is a 3/8" bottleneck in the factory...

    Dot R tires for track and drag

    I was going to put this thread up so everyone can see because I see a lot of guys buying and or recommending others to buy track tires for drag racing and drag radials for track racing. For example the NT05R is a drag radial and it will hook up very well at the drag strip, it is a soft...

    75W-90 or 75W-140

    Has anyone with a "track pak" swapped out the 75W-90 factory fill for 75W-140 yet? Results? I know the manual calls for 75W-90, but 75W-140 is only going to resist sheer better and have better film strength with a downsides of slight loss in fuel economy from drag. I just have little...

    New Battery

    I found a lightweight Lithium battery that I think will work pretty well in these cars. It actually has more cranking amps better amp/hours but the reserve is smaller. It weighs 6.6lbs and is smaller than the OEM battery,but if you happen to have some black foam laying around (I did from an EVO...
