Sure, I'll be happy to let you know. It seems as though you are convinced that traction control is mandatory because it is your personal preference. Your personal preference is not necessarily the preference of someone else. To each his own. Let me ask you, do you have any track experience...

I don't believe it will be mandatory, it will be the decision of the individual driver. I am planning to mod my car, and likely add about 150hp, but I have no intentions of adding any traction control. My traction control is my right foot, and slight countersteering inputs/corrections. If the...

After years of having exotics with traction control, the lack of traction control on the GT is a refreshing change, and makes the car much more involving. My advice to anyone driving this car is to give it respect, and learn the limits of the car in a controlled environment (not on a busy...

Here is the list of Admissable and Non-Admissable Vehicles from US to Canada. You will notice that some can be brought in (with modification), as noted by the asterisks on the chart. http://www.riv.ca/english/US_vehicle_admissibility.pdf

The NSX driver in that track video is a legend in Japanese motorsports. Clearly he outclassed the rest of the field. Equal driver for equal driver, the NSX wouldn't stand a hope in hell against a Gallardo or Murci under any circumstances. I have run with and NSX on the track (with a fairly...

I had the F1 trans in my F cars. I never heard of this on the 6-spd F cars, I'll have to ask around.

I think you are right. My Canadian VIN is 729.

Davefordgt, what mods have you done to your car?

Based on other cars I have seen, I wouldn't let Henessey modify my bicycle.

I kind of figured that. My concern was that the hp/tq curves didn't actually DROP in any areas.

Just wondering if anyone has done a dyno check on a car with only the Borla installed. I don't think this mod makes any power, but I want to check to see if there is any variation in the hp/tq curves. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice guys. This seems to make sense. I didn't realize the tranny needed so much time to warm up. But hearing your advice puts me at ease.

Hey guys, just got my GT, and it is one hell of a car. I did notice an annoying characteristic that happened to me 3 times today. A slight grind in shifting from 1-2. Is there a fix for this? It only happened a few times throughout the day, but I am concerned that the synchros may be in need...

Any further info on the 1-2 grind issue? I just got my car and noticed this characteristic on mine, as well. If anyone has some guidance I can give my dealer, that would be great.

I looked into bringing a US car over, and recently found out that it is "inadmissable" under Transport Canada guidelines. I thought maybe this meant the car needed to be converted to Canadian standards, but this is not the case. Even if you convert it to the exact standard, Transport Canada...

That makes me hesitate a bit. In the Murci outfitted with Tubi, there was a low-pitch "drone" sound at 70-80mph. And it literally gave me a headache. I think maybe I will wait to get a ride in one of the cars that has the Borla installed before I make my decision.

Thanks bony. The Miura is a sweet car. Don't be shy about the pricing on them. Those cars will only appreciate. It is regarded as the most beautiful exotic of all time. And the fact that Lambo has scrapped the idea of producing a new Miura will help protect the exclusivity of the original...

What is the price on the Borla exhaust? And is the sound bearable at highway cruising speed? I had a Tubi on my Murcielago, and on the highway the exhaust noise gave me a headache. I had to keep altering the revs to keep my head from pounding.

Thanks Abolfaz! I can't wait until it arrives in my garage! I would bet that I'll be running in the Ford GT for a while before jumping in the Lambo again (simply because it's "the new kid on the block"). The Ford GT is one hell of a car, and anybody that tells you "it's just a Ford" isn't a...

Albofaz, is your GT an 05 or 06?
