I wasn't happy when I found that. But on the plus side, as it could always be worse, I've had no paint flake from aluminum corrosion on the hood like plenty of other people.

Sounds like the factory workers weren't drunk or high when your car got put together. My trunk is very misaligned from the factory and I have couple funny gaps on the bumpers. I test drove a brand new 2015 Roush RS2 before buying my car which had some really wonky panel gaps including a very...

Which dealer did you end up having work on your car?

run down to the grocery store and grab a gallon of distilled water and top up with that instead, I wouldn't be mixing orange and G05

the 4 piston calipers are made by Continental, they are not Brembos. Only the 6 pistons are Brembos

Okay, done!

counter point - the Fram has a much higher quality and better filtering synthetic media over the FL500s. Some BITOG members have opened FL500s filters to find the filter media torn or collapsed as well. More to an oil filter than "da holes" I run the same Fram on my 16 GT and have never...

Following up as per your request, I just got back from driving the car from CA back to PA. Very happy with the suspension setup I put together including the Bilsteins. The general ride quality isn't any worse than factory but boy does it corner flatter. The B6's really do have better rebound...

Well, it's installed. Took about 10 minutes, was letting it update while I cleaned the car out from a cross country road trip. Patch notes just say "continuous software improvement"

3.4 is the much newer Sync for the newer APIMs, like going from windows 10 to windows 11. Ford won't officially let you upgrade the 15-17 cars to 3.4 because they say the APIM won't support it.

To my surprise Ford is telling me I have a new update ready for my 16 GT which is currently on 3.0.20204. 20204 was pushed in late 2020 and is the last update talked about in the Sync 3.0 master thread...

You'll see plenty of em trust me, here is a shot of a friends car from a few years ago, you can see all the tbirds in the background I'm normally over in the Marauder section

No time limit, many years ago before I spent the night out there I'd roll in around 11:30. FYI the discount on "gate n go", the showfield reg, ends in 2 days. Saves you about 7 dollars I believe. The supercoupe guys have a big turnout ever year, I know someone in that group.

Go walk the truck section and see all the bone stock 6G broncos and bone stock 5th and 6th gen Explorers you'll feel much better My car looked totally stock on the outside, plenty of others will as well. The Ranger I'm parked next to here was a friends lease

Honestly if you're bringing the Mustang just get a showfield pass and you won't have to worry about finding spectator parking. Its the easiest way to "find parking", just park on the showfield. I brought my Mustang a couple years (during the pandemic days), I just parked in the S550 stock class...

Are you going just as a spectator? I have never parked outside the show field but there are options all over including people letting you park on their front lawns for 10 bucks or so. If you're thinking of getting a hotel you better start looking like... right now, I'm willing to bet at least...

Well, BMW must realize how much sound adds to the overall experience since they've been piping in fake engine noise and adding exhaust crackles when in sport mode for years now.

Historically the police have always showed up when the meetups got HUGE and they'd clear people out. But that has been the case for years and years. AFAIK that is usually the night time meets as well, the Sunday day time meet I went to with my friend Yuichi was an older crowd. Never had any...

I don't know what the car scene is like down in Hiroshima as I never made it down that far, but plenty of Mustangs to be found up in Tokyo & Kanagawa. A friend of mine over there has owned a 03 cobra for well over a decade now, it replaced his JDM 97 cobra that got totaled. These are all back...

That is exactly what we did, I think her complementary maintenance was 4 years (they scaled it back for the 2016MY and have since reduced it more, brakes used to be part of complementary maintenance). At the time I had a friend working at the dealer so every 5000 miles it'd be serviced by the...
