For what you are asking, TMO might be a better source of information. Personally, I don't know anyone that uses Nitto, so I don't even have second hand experience, just what Tire Rack says about them relative to a SC3R.

Race louvers are wind tunnel tested and they publish the cfd data. I've got AJs bolt on splitter. I've pounded the ever living shit out of that thing on track and it's still as solid as day 1. I'd question how you are destroying belly pans and splitters. I've hopped kerbs with the best of them...

Put a wider spacer on. What do you have for extended studs? GT4, 350R studs? I can clear 38mm spacers with the GT4 studs so I'd bet you have plenty of room to stick a 10 mm wider spacer on.

Before I went to the UPR plug, I re-used my plug every time. I like the dual o ring though.

So now we get CA tires and 49 state tires? Just like the 90s all over again?

My mechanic pounds on my car when I take it in. Wrenches get thrown, bad words get said, he usually ends up pissed off because the YT video he watched made the modifications/repairs look so much easier. So then he takes it out and drives in anger, usually at the track. Tires come back with way...

A little more description would help. When it's pushing, are you on the brakes, steady speed/steady input, accelerating? It could be as simple as getting on the brakes later and harder to set the front end.

Ha, my full interior (with the exception of my Parco seats and wheel) AC and Heater would go a long ways. I've been tossing around deleting both this summer when I pause my membership actually. But dayum Houston summers are hot.

Did you really pilot tomcats? Can we get some pics?

Yes. I never took a photo of the final measurements, but dialing in the perfect cross weight was very simple. Way easier than I expected. The car was 3884 with me and a half tank. So safe to say, the car is right around 3700.

It's not just our cars, look at the GTD next to the 911's in IMSA, GT, or WEC. It's wild how big they are. Glad to see more M1's on track!

Do you have the stud kit for the front calipers? That looks like the nut used on those, but OP has them listed as a different size. Link to the product page: https://www.opmustang.com/store/p271/OPRacing_17-4PH_Stainless_Brake_Caliper_Stud_Kit_GT350_-_GT500.html#/

I like the color. Whole car doesn't look bad at all, the lowering springs give it better proportions. FML though that's a lot. Also, on the warranty, it's not required that Ford install it. Just make sure whoever did install it gave you all their documentation of being an asce shop or whatever...

For sure. The ability to take a kerb is something else. Not to mention the ride height adjustability is a game changer. I went up 1/4" all around, and now scrape almost nowhere. Basically I'm so much more confident in the car, and that's after just 3 trips to a track. Can't wait to get some more...

Doubles, the 8300s. Meant to post that, but got sidetracked on the trailer thing. No reservoir in the front, reservoir in the rear.

1 because it seems to rain at least 1 day on the weekend I pay a lot to experience a track, 2 because it would be really nice to throw everything in a trailer instead of the bed of my truck, and 3 because the amount of cars on the highway that will pull up next to the car on the trailer, then...

Yeah, the Cortex. 750/900. I highly recommend them, but I'd go directly to Penske next time.

It's been a minute since I updated this thread. Since then, I took the car to Barber MSP. First time going out of state for a track, and learned a lot of lessons. A) I need a covered trailer, B) that I suck and packing, and C) shake down the car harder before leaving town. As for the track...

It won't physically hurt anything, but the Ford stuff is designed to work with the Ford stuff, Steeda, BMR, H&R, etc....So the rates of the springs compliment the sway bars. Unless you are tracking the car, I am sure it will all be just fine mixing brands. Not ideal, but not the worst thing.

I think Jesus said that. It's definitely in the Bible somewhere....:crackup:
