    FS: 2006 Mustang GT track ready; Southern California

    Sorry for the delay in posting additional pictures, but work has been hectic lately. Here are some more pics (excuse the dusty interior!!!). With 2 drivers, 4 cars and a small, California garage, I am being...ahem...pressured to sell this thing sooner rather than later. Price drop: $17,500

    Unpredictability

    This. When I replaced my stock lsd with a Trutrac it was a huge change in predictability in breaking the rear loose. You can rebuild the stocker with new clutches (a temporary fix with your power levels), or swap in a better lsd. The difference in handling predictability, mostly in aggressive...

    What seats are you running?

    Sparco actually makes a tilt enabled seat bracket for fixed back seats, if you want back seat access. I was going to go that route, but my kids (young) can get in the back seat if I slide the passenger seat all the way forward.

    front splitters available? may have a solution but need pics!

    You need to compete, as that is world record smashing shooting (I believe the current 1000 yard record is still about 2.5"). Basically, you are saying your rifle is a 0.0375 MOA shooter at 1000 yards. That's a little tough to believe...

    0.375 MOA or 0.375" at 1000. One is believable, the other isn't...

    Eibach Multi Pro R2

    Can the Koni yellows really control 500 lb springs?? That would be a surprise to me.

    front splitters available? may have a solution but need pics!

    See if your local sign shop carries alumalite. It is basically a corrugated plastic with aluminum skins on both sides. Very light, but stiff. It is usually $100 or so for a 4'x8' sheet. Very popular splitter material. Like Hunter and Dave mentioned, plywood is also a great option. A wrap...

    You can also call them and just buy the upper spring seat and bearing.

    clutch help

    I had never dropped a transmission before, but dropping it multiple times over a year has made me a pro! It is actually pretty straightforward, and once you take a deadblow hammer to the front corners of the tranny tunnel, it gets even easier.

    clutch help

    My stock pressure plate gave out on me--figured it out the hard way after dropping the tranny to replace the throwout. Then replacing the master cylinder. Then dropping the tranny again to replace the pressure plate and disc. Then replacing the POS RAM clutch when it started giving me...

    clutch help

    Sounds like the pressure plate--never heard of the brand, but do you trust they have all of the release dimensions correct? Even some of the biggies screwed this up and include a spacer for behind the throwout.

    Autocross help

    The FR500Cs swap rates depending on the track and conditions, though. A better comparison is the FR500S, which uses 500/300 with the FRPP swaybars--may not be the best rate for all tracks, but they probably are a damn good compromise. Which is what most of us with day jobs like. No need to...
