    supercharger lost its whine

    the internal bypass vacuum actuator is ok. I suspect the fluid must not be circulating because it is cool. Opened the reservoir (against better judgement) right after running the car, it was cool so figured it would be ok. Fluid is still present. So it must not be circulating. Could be the pump...

    supercharger lost its whine

    Anyone experienced a drop in the performance of their GT? The whine of the supercharger has dropped off. The 4000 rpm push has fallen off. The furtherest outter cannister on the drivers side that houses the fluid for cooling the air from the supercharger is cool after a drive? Any ideas?

    GT vs Viper

    That is the art of tuning suspensions. The gt has little if any body role. It can soak up the imperfections while maintaining great contact on the pavement and providing great feed back. A "soft" ride is a very simple term but not descriptive as to how well the suspension works or performs. When...

    Ferrari F430 Opinions?

    Interesting article about reliability,depreciation and cost to service in the latest Evo magazine as commented on by the P1 club. Bottom line is if you were going to buy a 430 the reliabiliy is apparently good as is the resale value. That is a reassuring point if you are concidering the 430...

    side by side

    It is amazing how small the original was in size. The New gt looks like it was put on growth hormones in comprison.

    Interesting GT thread on Viper site

    To begin I offer the apology for the following ramblings of a fool. I was very close to buying 2005 viper and I didn't. I took one out. I was enamoured by its power but was very lacking in refinement. The way the seats "grab" on to you is great. It was close but I couldn't do it. The gt was a...

    Axle Failure for the SECOND time

    Assuming this is a "true" problem. Ford as no company will ever take full responsibility for the issue but in the interest of humoring those with a concern may offer a solution to a "preceived" problem that some customers may feel exist with the GT. They will probably take a page from the Z8...

    Ford Gt Crash!!! The Car Is An Amazing Testament To Engineering!

    Thanks for this post. It is always sad to see the loss of ones GT but great to see its driver and passenger walk away with minimal injury. Again thank you for sharing this unlucky turn of events with us. It is amazing to me that as good as I oringinally assumed this car was that it is even...

    CGT unloads in the 90210!!

    I think it is a little reckless BUT I love hearng that sound it is soooo race car. Could I listen to it all day? I think it would exhaust me in the end:ack Certainly it demonstrates the car is what it was billed to be. I can now however understand why it doesn't have the cult following of an enzo.

    [UK] Ford GT or F430 F1

    Key is until the next model. The 360 depreciation started after the release of the 430. And the 430 will begin its depreciation more so after its replacement model. Hence depreciation will occur but is a delayed phenomenon. At least that is my perception. I have a 430 on order and the Ferrari...

    [UK] Ford GT or F430 F1

    Re resale value. Would it be wrong to assume that over the course of a year if you were to get a 430 at MSRP you would loose almost nothing in depreciation or very little in comparison to a GT until the replacement model for a 430 came out. I watched 360s depreciate only after the 430 came out...

    [UK] Ford GT or F430 F1

    As much as I like the GT ford I am not sure if they are frought with problems in the UK because of the additional electronics. In North America these problems are not common. That would be my only concern with a GT in the UK.
