    Hello from Oklahoma! New FGT owner

    Rob, you can tell the manufacture date of the tires pretty easily. There's a set of #s written on the sidewall which correspond to the year and week the tire was made. i.e. 06/43 means 43rd week of 2006.

    best way to ease the pain is with a portable space heater to soften it. Made my life much easier.

    Whats left of the stolen GT in San Diego

    that's very unfortunate, but that does mean there are a lot of NOS parts now available. No way it's worth it $ wise to put it all back together.

    How NOT to do an axle shaft flange upgrade

    Hey! The company that makes that wire should advertise "guaranteed to 200 mph!" That was a very lucky leak for me. I drive the black beast hard, and torrie has her putting down 715 rwhp..

    When I had my 3.4 whipple installed by cooltech, an oil leak was noted on my belly pan. that was maybe 2000 miles ago. I have yet to see a single drop on the floor of my garage, but noted some seepage through one of the torx bolts holding the pan on. I pulled the pan, and i beleive (though...

    thx guys. It does have the OEM drivetrain. It was rebuilt (with toyota oem pistons) about 50k ago.. only has something like 122k on the chassis. Stock 4 speed transmission, stock 2F straight 6 4.2l motor. It's the same motor that they put into the toyota forklift. All torque. minimal HP. I...
