A month ago I had the axle bolt recall done and there were 2 broken bolts one on each side. The problem was never on every start up b4 but maybe...

    uh oh

    Check the fittings on the small loop installed where the tranny cooler would connect if you had one. Is on top of the tranny best viewed from the passenger side. A long shot but mine started leaking and just had to be snugged up. Derry

    05 Grille

    You might give Saleen a call. I have an 06 and wanted an 05 grill for protection against track debris. Saleen called the OE manufacturer and got one. I cannot remember who that was though. I will see if I have the info at home tonight. Derry

    Thanks guys, good to know I am not alone, sad to know I've got one of the vulnerable ones. I will keep the contacts given for repairs down the road, and maybe keep an eye out for a spare as well. I appreciate the input! Dery

    Modded GT vs ENZO

    Last year I had the chance to drive an Enzo and my then stock GT at the West track at Firebird in Phoenix. We rant the track 'backwards' as it was originally designed to run which is a faster track but still a tight course. I found the Enzo to be very difficult to anticipate with the electronic...

    Some brake questions ???

    DOT 4 is more hydroscopic than DOT 3. Not a big deal if changed regularly. I use 4 on the track and 3 for normal use.

    Whipple....generic tune vs dyno tune?

    I have had two vettes and the GT done with custom dyno tunes. I never really considered generic, I like having a local goto person that worked on the tune.
