At 2 1/4 inches of ground clearance, I haven't found a jack to suit my car. I just use a couple homemade 2x12" pieces of wood ramps and then a standard floor jack.
Wow... that's horrible to hear! When I've had the opportunity to drive my car, I've never witnessed anything bad happen to it. I do my best to keep it in sight when I take it out, but there have been times where watching it was impossible. Thankfully, no harm has been done.
I have less than 600 miles on these...19x10 (275/30/19 Nitto Invo) and 20x13 (345/25/20 Nitto Invo) Modulare Forged M15 wheels with satin black centers/outer lips/inner barrels/hardware.
Everyone has their own opinions about breakin. I did the breakin for the peace of mind and now I'm glad I did...because the shop can't blame me for over-revving or something.
I confirmed the oil cooler was not changed out, but the lines were cleaned out. AS of now, the install shop said if the...
Yes, I saved the oil and filter. They will be joining my motor when it's finally taken back to the machine shop (who knows when...still trying to work with the installation shop).
A low profile jack won't even help me. My front jacking point is 2.25" off the ground. My car is low!
I put 600 breakin miles (mixture of city/highway) on the car before I revved it over 3500rpms. Valvoline 20W50 VR1 was used for breakin. When I changed the oil the night before the failure, I only drained 6.5qts of oil (including the oil filter). I put in 10.5 qts of Mobil 1 10W30 sythentic. I...
This was my order from superbrightleds. This includes the 10 LEDs for the gauges, 3 LEDs for the climate control, 1 LED for the key ring, and 5 LEDs for the rearview mirror/trunk/licenese plate.

I know the '06 motors have a 10.5qt oil capacity, but what's the recommended amount of oil to add on a brand new motor?
The reason I ask is my motor spun another rod bearing 600 miles after a fresh rebuild. The installer said he only put in 9qts since "the capacity is 8.5-9qts". I told him I...
Haha.
We have a big group heading to the Festivals of Speed in Orlando this weekend at the Ritz-Carlton. The car show is Sunday, but we are leaving Saturday. I have a couple extra tickets if you'd like them. My friend's are awesome and are getting a trailer to trailer my car up for the...
This is interesting... The shop just admitted to only putting in 9qts of Valvoline 20w50 VR1, but isn't the oil capacity 10.4qts? And to add to the irony, only 7qts were drained after only 600 miles when I changed the oil Friday night. The car never smoked and there were no leaks.
As of now...
2 weeks and 600 miles later, the motor spun another rod bearing Saturday night. All my aftermarket parts (KWs, wheels/tires, K&N intake, Belanger headers) will be up for sale soon if anyone is interested.
The last picutre (and only picture) I took of the car since I got it back...Friday night.
This is the perfect weather to be out enjoying your vert! Contgrats on the delivery. I have KWs, wheels, Belanger headers, and K&N intake if you are interested in adding anything.
