    Car meets worth visiting?

    Thanks, buddy. Would be delighted to catch you at the meet (not for the ticket, but just to introduce and meet a member of the board). Will look into which ones I can make and drop you a line if I’m heading to an OC based meet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Car meets worth visiting?

    Thanks, guys. All very helpful - now need to map it out. I believe most meets happen on Sunday morning, so might not be able to do all (need to prioritise). Will plan to go to as many as I can make it to. Ive been to the Petersen every year (and will probably drop down this time as well...

    Car meets worth visiting?

    Im planning a trip over to the states around mid October and planning to be in LA for a couple of weeks. Was wondering if there are any car meets/events/shows worth visiting in or around LA. I remember the Costa Mesa Cars n Coffee used to be great and had a good showing, but that stopped for a...

    Ford GT - Note of Appreciation

    Welcome to the forum!! Seems like we have things in common - we both love Porsches and recently made the jump into this amazing machine. I dropped the research bit and went with my heart on this one more than my brain :p. No regrets yet. I still love Porsches and own a few (including an...

    Isn’t this the ONLY way to open the front hood (regardless of battery condition)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sorry to reopen this thread, but I wanted to ask how can I be able to post a thread on the GT Tech section? I wanted to ask about where I could buy some of the GTG clamshell hook release mechanism (its abit of a pain having to always look for a second guy to help out). Thanks Sent from my...

    Im not as technically adept, but it appeared to me from my read is that I need to replace the top of the neck (which is burried behind the fender). If what you’re pointing out to is a different issue, im happy to give it a try. Are you referring to the plastic flap on the exterior of the...

    I would love to join the Rallies (have been watching all the videos on YouTube), but unfortunately im located in Dubai, UAE. I do visit California on an annual basis thought for holiday. I do attend whatever car meets/CnC I can make during my trips, but im guessing the GT rallies are a GT only...

    Only issues that are making me re-think the catless option are: - CEL light, unless I upload a tune (not looking to tune yet) - im still left with the bulky Borla muffler blocking the vents and retaining heat My alternative would be to just go X/H pipe (Heffner seems to be on top of my list at...

    My thoughts too when I read the posts on the forum - the dealer doesnt think so by pointing to the sticky IAC valve, but I have asked them to check this specifically. Will report back after IAC valve is sorted. No CEL yet *fingers crossed* (ive had over 20 stalls to date). I face stalls less...

    Thanks alot for the welcome and the advice. First thing I did was swap out older tires for new (went with stock Eagle F1s as they were surprisingly available at the dealer). My next set would likely be the bridgestones though based upon my learnings from the forum. Got a couple of other...

    Have always admired the FGT from afar and have recently got the chance to jump on the bandwagon by purchasing my 05 White/Blue Stripes FGT (still working out how to get a photo up). Having driven and owned a number of other European exotics, but never before experienced an FGT, I must say I was...
