    ront49 liked post by twobjshelbys On thread : Is the Backdraft market soft?
    In some ways I disagree. I agree about the replica cars not being collectible, even Shelby CSX and Kirkham. There are simply too many of them and as long as they are continuing to be built the...

    Yes, the muscle car market is soft. These cars are somewhat unique given they are not collectible or investment grade, and there is a perpetual niche market of older guys who had the poster on their...

    I don't know about back there but out here the market is down quite a bit for all performance cars. I saw a couple of really nice Cobras that the owners were asking $60K for and they wound up selling...

    Eastwood has a 2k hi temp ceramic paint in a spray can. I used It on my engine block and surrounding firewalls, it is a two part paint and sprays beautifully and has a super hard durable finish. Love...

    Well today lightly sanded all parts then washed them with a good degreaser. I then gave them a coat of the VHT Etching Primer followed by 2 light coats of the VHT satin finish paint and one final...

    188 are fine but like anything the more stress u put them under the more likely they go bang. I’ve lunched a heap of 188s in my BD but under super harsh racing conditions. So to answer a few things...

    Easy check: If your diff flanges got 6 bolts, its a 188mm diff, if 8 bolts its the upgraded 210mm diff. 188mm diff on BMW race/drift cars were fine up to about 400hp, the 210mm are considered...

    Depends which diff you actually have... but they've held up fine to 500hp in nearly 2,000 cars now. The halfshafts would be the question mark. Would depend on when your car was produced to...

    What simple mods did you make. My last car was making a little more than 500 on the chassis dyno. I'd like to do better this time. And I don't exactly drive it easy. Donuts make me laugh out...
