    Chunk out of tire

    Thanks for weighing in. Thats kinda what I figured. It just looks horrible. The tires have about 8/32 tread on them, so I was thinking of getting a used to replace it that's at the same wear point. Just because I'm anal.

    Chunk out of tire

    Had a small chunk taken out of tire by a malicious curb. Almost an inch long...maybe 3/8" deep. Its right on the rim protector area. Do you think I should replace? See pic.

    CDC Splitter installed

    No, it goes right in place of the stock piece. Ford had a deal. It was like 180 bucks installed. Go on the ford accessories site and you’ll see it.

    CDC Splitter installed

    Finally got around to putting this on my 2010. Now with the boss 302 rear diffuser, I feel I’m done with the “ground effects”.

    Ez lip on GT/CS front bumper?

    No but I had one in my 2010 to fill in the gap area between the mutton chops. Looked ok, but it tore after 6 months. I’ve since replaced it with a cdc front splitter.

    2010 HID to 2013 HID/LED Headlights?

    So I can just buy 13/14 lights and plug them in? I thought there was some different wiring with the LEDs.

    10" wide wheels up front

    Do any of you guys with the 285's or larger up front have any issues with numb steering or tramlining? I'm currently running a set of 2013 19 x 9.5 base GT500 wheels (44mm) all around with 285's in the back and 255's up front. I'm thinking of going 285 in the front next time around if they fit...

    2010 HID to 2013 HID/LED Headlights?

    I put this in the 5.0 section because its probably more common among 2011-14's. I know they make a kit now to add 2013-14 headlights to 2010-12's that came with halogens, but is there anything yet for those of us with the HID option? I'm not into rewiring everything. Just looking for a...

    Boss/GT500 rear diffuser installed

    Thanks! 10-12 Boss 302s (and LS) and GT500s have this. If you have a 2013 Boss or Laguna its a different bumper and diffuser.

    Boss/GT500 rear diffuser installed

    Just had this put on today. It's subtle, but I think it adds a little character to the back end. Also, for anyone who has a 10-12 and wants to do this mod, I got this from the Ford accessories website for 187.00 shipped AND installed at the Ford dealer. I couldn't believe how cheap. They were...

    Added FRPP aluminum driveshaft

    Was thinking about getting a lightened steel flywheel when I do my clutch.

    Added FRPP aluminum driveshaft

    Had it installed last week. Definitely noticed a little more “urgency” when hitting the go pedal. Also feels a little more connected to the road if that makes any sense. A little pricey at $650, but worth it just to get rid of my clunky 102k mile factory shaft. Of course like any other mod...

    Shifting at high rpm’s

    Around 6-6500 rpm

    Shifting at high rpm’s

    So update, I put in a Barton shifter, and it seemed to help slightly. I can shift a little quicker than before, but the lockout is still there. I’m going to pick up those Che limiters over the winter and see if they help. But should I get motor mounts at the same time? After that, probably a...

    Too Much Lean? 2010 GT

    Sounds like your car is set up to be pretty stiff for the track. I was more or less trying to create a mild boss 302 setup on a budget for the street that didn’t alter ride quality too much. I may try a stiffer front bar down the road. I did add poly bushings to the existing bar, but that...

    Too Much Lean? 2010 GT

    That’s kind of what I figured. I’m moving at a pretty good pace 50-60mph. That plus the road is most likely the culprit. The rear is becoming “unsprung”. I was thinking of going 285s on the front since I have 9.5 width wheels. I was just afraid of tramlining, rub, vague steering feel, etc. As...

    Too Much Lean? 2010 GT

    I’m pretty sure that front bar is the same as the one I have in my 10. The Boss rear bar is 25mm which replaced my factory 24mm bar.

    Too Much Lean? 2010 GT

    Yeah, off throttle. I’m not sure about the banking, but I do believe the pavement is “crowned” in that area. Don’t get me wrong, the car is no go cart~amazing handler otherwise. It’s just very noticeable on this particular section of road.

    Too Much Lean? 2010 GT

    So I have a 2010 GT trackpack, that has a few Boss 302 bits here and there that include; near new take off springs, rear sway bar, and brake lines. I’ve also added Koni orange str struts/shocks, poly front sway bar bushings, a Shelby rear shock brace, and run 285/255-19 tires. I like to call it...

    Shifting at high rpm’s

    I realize, but there’s a lot of conflicting information. Like those Che limiters. I’ve read some that didn’t notice much of a difference, some that broke the trans case, some that it really helped. I did look into those as a possible solution.

    Shifting at high rpm’s

    I have considered this. The clutch catches a little on the higher side, but doesn’t slip. I have almost 100k on the car now and I’m pretty sure it’s the original clutch (bought used). I’ll also look into that braided line.

    Shifting at high rpm’s

    So I know this is a pretty old subject with these cars. I just want to hear from some people that actually found a way to remedy it. My 2010 GT, has the stock shifter with the Saleen shifter block added. The Saleen block did shorten the shift throw, but also made it notchier-which I know is a...
