I'm just lol'ing at the reaction to Doc's post, looks like the nutswingers have returned.

Well if anyone cares Vette's with the Z51 package, new Gran Sports, Z06s, and Zr1s have holes in the rotors, even the uplevel Vettes with the Carbon brakes package. They are cast that way, and I've also seen them crack. Pretty sure Doc's SL600 he just got rid of had holes too. I don't really care about this topic, but I'll just stir the pot. I wouldn't recommend cheap drilled rotors to somebody looking for a braking "upgrade", but if you buy the high quality parts it will work good.

I LOL'd at this thread, will read again.

This is a good point, I don't really think of this stuff just talking about it, wouldn't hurt to try jumping it.

Well a big :thumbup: to you. When are they going to learn?

Oh my bad, he said wannabe fast BMW

So is Gape going to win any races this year? He sure is off to a hell of a start. I bet this car is either changed, sold, or traded with in a month.

Clean nice looking car, but it looks like it needs more intercooler.

Going with the wife and daughter to check out the auto show, but after I'm up for something. Anyone who wants to come I have an extra ticket.

Can you show a link to the specific figures you posted? Not that I don't beleive you but I have not seen actual number yet. and as for Obama that was just an impression I got from the news obviously not substantiated, lets not even get started how contradictory and worthless I think he is, sorry I made the comment in the first place. Just hope we get a Regan to replace him like this country did with Carter.

I think most of it is media hype honestly. Here is a good article based on the other side. http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia-Pacific/2011/0317/Fear-of-Japan-s-nuclear-crisis-far-exceeds-actual-risks-say-scientists There are just too many groups and people against nuclear power to think this isn't getting hyped up in their favor. Especially when Obama has come out talking against Nuclear. I beleive in government influenced media, so it is easy for me to brush most of this off.

Ignition system DTCs set with the ignition in the START position if the starter relay or the starter is inoperative. When the PCM enables starter operation, the PCM also initiates the diagnostic test routines for DTCs P0335, P0340, and P0385. The PCM will not receive signal input from the CKP and CMP sensors if a condition exists which prevents the engine from cranking. When this occurs, the DTCs will set. So these codes mean nothing, you have an issue with the PCM, and possibly the theft system. Have you tried jumping the starter relay with the key on?

So you had the P0601 also?

Damn, I wish I was in a position to take this, GLWS. Clean ones like that are getting really rare.

DTC P0601 indicates that the contents of the EEPROM have changed since the PCM was programmed. The PCM must be replaced. Remember to program the replacement PCM with the correct software and calibration for the vehicle. This is where you should start. You'd be better off taking that to the dealer. I've done this stuff at work all the time, and don't take this the wrong way but those cars are horrible and I don't want to work on it.

RIP, some of the original good rap came from him and his friends. Everybody I know could jam to his music, this news sucks.

I have always used NGK plugs in about everything other then my bone stock GMs (which got ACDelco), and they have never given me an issue. I suppose if I was a Ford guy I'd use Autolites but have just never had a reason to try them.

Get some thicker skin and quit bitching, welcome to CR.

My stock rotors cracked on the Camaro, both front and rear. I guess I drive hard, hell the front have cracked again. I think I boiled the fluid once because it got better again after I flushed it out. I'm not sure what I'll buy next but it won't be the shit OP has.

That car runs pretty damn good on wastegate, it was really close to my car last year.

umm okay you got your brakes done and wanted to share? congrats?

I run a .030 gape to be safe with spray, boost should be similar. The plugs Jones posted may be good, but the 4 prong shit Bosch makes is bullshit. I wouldn't use anything but a NGK, or ACDelco.

Nope LS motors are bolted on, you're thinking of the older small blocks.

Lifters are fairly common, the rockers have had issues with the needle bearings falling out so that should be obvious if you pull a valve cover. I'm still leaning towards a lifter.
