Going to echo the other sentiments here. The only way I'd buy boosted is if you know it's been done by a reputable shop, is sorted, hasn't been a "test bed", hasn't been pushed to the edge, etc.

Sure, mustangs aren't "true blooded" sports cars, but neither are M cars for that matter which started life as hopped up normal cars. Idk, I guess my definition of "sports car" is pretty loose. If...

Love the Z to drive, but I have to say, in some aspects I agree w/ some of the reviewers at least. I think at this stage in the lifecycle of the car, I'd expect the price to have dropped somewhat....

I'm sure the forum will stick around, always a good resource to ask at least a few people questions. I don't have too many car buddies in my field, so this is my fix. Also, I'm sure at some point,...

It was actually the second poster (not OP) who mentioned that.

OP, just try to find a parking method that suits you and get comfy +/- mirrors to your taste. I actually find it easier to back in...

Yeah, I had terrible tires haha. Interestingly it was at T-hill too. I think the stock tires on the STI and EVOs are indeed pretty sticky, but the average person running all seasons who is getting...

I can tell you from unfortunate first-hand experience that AWD cars can be spun if the idiot at the wheel I dumb enough, i.e. I nearly spun an Audi on track lol.

I also agree w/ fluid flush. TBH, I don't think you need to switch to the super high temp stuff. I picked up DOT 4 at a local shop and bled the whole system a couple days before my track days. I...

I did a track day last year at LS w/ ambient 60-70. Max temp was 220 w/ an oil cooler and I lost clutch pressure briefly (boiled the fluid), but had it come back. My clutch wasn't the same after...

Affordability aside (you'll have to figure out if you can really afford the car or not) I would say the car is good, not perfect.

Power is plenty and fun, but not snap your neck back fast. Lots of...

Zspeed kit comes w/ bronze pilot bushing. If you got it done by a mechanic and you gave them the whole kit, they should have done it along w/ the other stuff. I also just got CMAK a month or two ago...

ISF is pretty quick, supposed to be an M3 competitor at the time. Almost certainly faster than a Z, probably drives like a bigger car though (curb wt around 3800lbs). It sounds pretty awesome though,...

Lexus ISF is sick. I think if you found a good lower mile or not abused one, it'll be great. In terms of pure performance, I think the other cars already mentioned are still better though.

That's surprising. The steering felt pretty similar between the two for me, w/ the Z having a quicker ratio, maybe a hair more feedback in the Z, but more accuracy in the M3. Honestly, the two cars...

Anyone else have this happen? I know I'm reviving like crazy, but figured it was worth a shot. I'm stuck in the worst of both worlds because I think it's stuck in the "cold" position. I get...

But even if they didn't call it a supra, then everyone will just say, "oh they should have just made a new supra". At the end of the day, it's just part of the hype train and no mere mortals have...

My car is not lowered, but the front chin spoiler/air dam makes it very annoying to get a normal floor jack under the front. So I usually use either a scissor or floor jack for one of the front pinch...

If you're using jack stands, I believe the pinch welds/reinforced spots are your only real option. For just a floor jack, there is a dimple on the front behind the belly pan and you can use the rear...

In terms of driving performance, or just how they feel? I think the Z06 is probably a closer approximation, 2 door, 2 seater coupe, FE RWD. But the GT350/ZL1 seem like they should be right there, no?...

Certainly seems like the previously mentioned cars would all be up your alley. GT350, ZL1, Camaro SS 1LE. Obviously GT350 and ZL1 would probably have to be used, but I think if your budget is that...

Well the CSC and/or CMC finally gave up the ghost. The pedal went to the floor on my track day and even though the pressure came back, the pedal had never been the same since. Got cold here recently...

Yeah man, my tires hopped a ton on OEM Bridgestone. I switched to Conti Sport and it literally all went away. I even still had reasonable tread depth on the stock tires. I took the new tires to the...
