Gun Oil Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 The ink on my sales agreement for my GT500 is barely dry, and I just order a set of CS66's 20's with black detail, and a set of Steeda Vert Springs..... Tomorrow off to Discount to get my Yokohama's ordered.... I was only home one day when I installed the light bar kit..... Yeah, I'm CRAZY~~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grabber Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 You're going crazy because you met Grabber & his craziness rubs off on good folks I think what made him lose his mind was that he realized that he was following the fastest color and it gave him 2nd thoughts of his color choice. This buying frenzy helps him to forget seeing my tail lights and the choice he made. It gives him some comfort. I think his eyes are still watering from the burning rubber that he ate from following me. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gun Oil Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Just got off the phone with Jerry, and ordered front & rear Porterfield's..... Ford & SAI should be ashamed with the horrible brake dust issues with these cars! I have just over 800 highway miles, and the front & rear look like CRAP! No excuse for this in my book.....

Gun Oil Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Sunday you told me you were leaving the car stock. I should have clarified that to mean the engine & exhaust..... First thing I did on my Z06 after getting it home was chnage the wheels to chromed factory wheels, and put some Proxes T1's tires on...... I learned the hard way with trying to mess with the intake and such on that car....I will not touch anything related to the powertrain on the GT500....if I do you have full authorization to mock me , and bitch slap my ass!

What makes you think SAI is responsible for which brake pad & material was chosen? Ford did all the testing & that's what they decided to put on the car to meet Gov't. regulations. Blame them.

Ford did all the testing & that's what they decided to put on the car to meet Gov't. regulations. Thought they may have "some" input....that's all.....If my name was on a car, I would want a simple thing like brake dust pollution controlled .....it is like they didn't even think about it as a problem. I think most of us who own these cars feel the same way.....call me lazy, I just don't feel we should have to wipe our wheels down every 500 miles to have them look somewhat clean.....

ColdwaterHotrod Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 As much as we would like to believe, not all things were in Carrolls power to change when this car was being designed. Regardless of what he did I still love my car & it's going to the Coldwater Car Show tomorrow evening & then I'm off to the INDY 500 on Saturday for pole day.
