hah ya I did, but the chose the Z. Ya we should hit the track sometime, I might do some spectating since im in the break in period but it would be tight to watch others tear it up
im not sure, I got UDP's on the way! I bought them from $teve since he saleen'd his stang, so once I put those on my car I definitely want to go back to the track and see how much it has helped me. Im @ UCF mon/wed/fri afternoons, so if you wanna go one day let me know, im always kinda close, but I dont own a helmet yet
Yea, I bought my car at ford of Clermont, it use to be rolling hills ford. Any who, they are a saleen dealership, and there parts department actually has a saleen charger on sale in the window. Every time I go to see the lady who runs the part dept (a family friend) I get stuck staring at that sexy supercharger! They are pretty good to work with. Kelly in the service department is the guy I always deal with, and he knows his stuff. I'm not sure who you would deal with when getting an after market part put on, but I would assume him. He runs a team that services cars... but yea, they are good to work with, and have some nice cars on display.
This guy that owns this Shelby is a fanatic about having his things done a certain way. He ordered the Razors, and we all thought they looked great on the car. I think he rode the car twice with them on it. Of course that was before the weather got bad up here. Well, I've been debating on what wheels I was going to order for my car. I finally got some pics of it from the previous owner with the FR500's on it, and I showed them to him. So, while I have been deciding if I was going to order me a set, and what size I would order, he orders him a set, and a set of NITTO's too. I told him I was probably going to order me a set of NITTO 555's, and he researched them, and decided he liked what he read. He's picky, but man I'm telling you, everything he has ever fixed up has been very tastefully done. Usually, once he gets to a point that there is nothing else he wants to do to a car, or bike, he sells them. By the way, I was in Florida the weekend after Christmas through New Years. The fam., and I went to Disney. Got spoiled to the 80 degree weather, and clean roads too. Came home to 5in. of snow, and when we left Fla. it was 78 degrees. lol... I ordered me a set of 18x10, 18x9 chrome FR500's, and NITTO 555's. Should be here this week some time. I don't know when I will be able to get the car out though. Too much salt on the roads up right now. I'll try to get wome pics of it in the garage, and post them.
Hey Retro, I finally got a few pics of my friends Shebly GT in his basement. He really didn't want me to take them though, because his mirrors are at the paint shop getting color matched to the car. I think I told you he had American Racing Shelby Razors on the car, but he has already taken them off. He ordered a set of 18x10, 18x9 chrome FR500's for it, and put them on it. Well, check it out. You'll see what your motor is going to look like with a Whipple on it, if that is the SC you decide on.
First off thanks for the compliments on the car, Our neighborhood is pretty laid back, I'm probably the youngest one on our block.
My mother-in-law is my next door neighbor and she hates me anyway so sometimes I just try to piss her off.
As far as the torque converter, I don't see any problem for a daily driver at all. If you changed the gears in your car the difference you felt with the gears is about the same you would with the converter.
From a stop with the stock tires you can't take off too hard because all you get is wheel spin. anything under 25-30 MPH it spins like crazy even with the traction control turned on.
If your friend is using the Nova for a daily driver he shouldn't have any problems except for having to but tires a little more often than usual.
No, I haven't and it sux big time. The way Ford is allocating these cars is ridiculous. I ordered it the first day the order banks were open and dealerships are getting cars for stock before I'm getting mine. Apparently, the regional mgr. changed my order to 01 priority, but I don't know if it has been built yet or anything. It's been a pain, though. I've almost say "screw it" on multiple occasions.
7.60? wow. my first job i started at $6 and hour then after a year bumped up to $7 where i stayed for until i quit after 2 years. Now i am making $11 (started at 10 a year ago) and its not nearly enough to keep up with all my car payments and insurance bills. I give you props
