    Caliper install Qs

    Installing a set of powder coated calipers and SS line. What type of thread locker if any should be used on the bleeder valves. As pointed out in PM not really thread lock. I only ask because it appears the speed bleeders have some sort of red compound on them when viewed online. These are...

    handling question post wheel/tire install

    I just got my iforged 19/20 setup and I'm running Nitto Invo 285/30/19 in the front and 345/25/20 in the rears. Prior to this I was running Kumho Ecsta stock size 17s all around. I have Eibach’s installed and I'm assuming an alignment is reccomended when going from stock 17s to my current...

    Oil leak with pictures

    Oil change time, normally do as much of an inspection around the engine/undercarriage as possible. I found two things, oil leak and the source of my irritating exhaust leak. From the looks of the oil in the following pictures should I be concerned. This is the rear of the head on the...

    iForged Aeros

    Almost there. Hopefully I can get the 4th wheel before long and find a decent price on a set of 19/20s. Dave, if you read this thanks for the unheard of deal on these wheels. Its obvious I'll need larger rotors and brake now, it never stops. Now to decide what I'll do with the Kumhos I had...

    335 vs. 315

    I have a relatively decent understanding of tire sizes but have to ask. Can Nitto NT05 315/35/r17s fit stock 96 GTS rear wheels and other than width what would be lost/gained. I’m wondering if I should even entertain the idea. Thanks all.

    New Exhaust Install

    I broke down and asked my wife for a mig welder for Christmas. Since I had a new welder I decided I would replace what was left of my stock exhaust. I have 2.5 inch from the flex joint into Roe High flows followed by 2.5 in/out mufflers which previously went into the stock 2.25 at the bend...

    Fascia Re paint

    It was past time for me to get my front fascia re painted. Last week the removal went well and pulling the fasteners was pretty straight forward. Basically as mentioned throughout the board breaking them off is the best means of removal. Now on the other hand getting the new ones back in is...

    Door panel Material

    Anyone know what the door panels are made from, panel not the vinyl. Not sure if there is any difference but I have a 96 GTS. I did see a stamp on the panel of PVC, I don’t think that is the answer? I need to repair a crack and want to get the correct bonding agent. Thanks, Chris

    intake removed questions

    I decided to change out my thermostat in hopes that it will help with my cooling issue. After looking at the threads and how too section I decided I would get industrious and pull the intake. Not that bad actually, injector wiring on the back of the coil pack is relatively easy to access...

    Thermostat clicking question

    Lately my GTS has been running hotter and hotter. Naturally the outside temps have been at or above 100° and this hasn't helped. I decided to pull the radiator so that I could it and the surrounding area. It was obviously very dirty and full of crap including enough leaves to make any nest...

    Grinding Noise any thoughts

    Another noise thread I know but I need some opinions please. The noise is off axis or not constant rotational. It is coming from the front passenger side of the car and I first thought it was due a pad dragging. It can be heard with the windows down while driving and is very prevalent...
