  1. http://www.vidilife.com/index.cfm?f=media.play&vchrMediaProgramIDCryp=0F7CAA00-9A50-4816-93D0-1
  2. I am getting ready to install a new clutch and want to have my pressure plate and flywheel balanced. Anyone know where I can take these to be done?
  3. From LS1Tech 0- good call nate / phil FWIW tht was my Buddy Chris. The Crank Position Sensor died twice in less than 12000 miles. When the CPS dies the PCM can't give the motor proper timing so it goes into "limp home mode" which is exactly what Chris needed it to do since he was over 300 miles away from home on his way back from PRI in Orlando. It was the weekend so the dealership was closed and Onstar said they might be able to get him a rental in a few hours. if he drove it to a dealership..... not likely in Tifton GA on a Sunday. __________________
  4. What a dumbass. It would be different if he was fighting GM over something or if he had actually taken it to a dealership. Instead he shows what a dumbass he is.
  5. The scoop is a temporary add on. The Corvette SS will have a "power bulge" hood to clear the supercharger.
  6. This is a relatively old video but I love it. All American Muscle 0- F0-bodies, Vettes, Mustangs, and Vipers 0- how bad can it be?? It is long 0- 18 mins. Check out the Mustang crash at about 12:50 http://www.camaroz.net/vids/The%20RAGE%20two.wmv
  7. I have State Farm and when it is not being driven I just drop the coverage to just the comprehensive. Is that not an option for you? It only costs me like 10-15 per month while in storage?
  8. I hope you are kidding? (Is that what the wink is for?) Gallardo - 0-60 4.1 secs 1/4 mile 12.4 at 118 C6 ZO6 0- 0-60 3.6 secs 1/4 mile 12.0 at 123.5 Believe in America. Now given the choice of course I would take the Lamborghini but, stock for stock, the Gallardo is outgunned here.
  9. My wife picked me up a clutch for X-mas - has anyone had any luck with a Centerforce Dual Friction clutch? I know everyone here likes Cartek or Textralia but frankly I cannot justify dropping 1000 on a clutch right now. My car is driven 95% on the street so that is the most important. I like to take it to the track a few times a year. Any good/bad experiences with this clutch. The guy at Jeg's that sold it to my wife was apparently a huge fan of their clutches. I checked LS1Tech and it seems there are not many stories about them at all. I was planning on going with the LS7 clutch but the added need of a new flywheel pushes the price up.
  10. The Steelers will not make the playoffs but it is not Ben's fault. No consistent running game, no consistent line play, dropped / tipped passes by young receivers, etc. He has definitely made some bad throws, usually when trying too hard to make a play. He will also not get sacked more than 3 times this weekend. You clearly have not seen them play much this year. The Steelers made an adjustment to their blocking scheme after the Ravens smacked them around. On passing downs Najeh Davenport has been inserted as the TB - he weighs 250 lbs and can take on a LB - something Willie Parker has shown he cannot do. Key to beating the Colts - you HAVE to get up on them. If you get down by a score or more you are toast. Their defense is built to rush the passer. If they know you have to pass it is almost impossible to move the ball.
  11. Not gonna happen. Steelers dug too deep of a hole.
  12. I know how he did it - I know how he did it! Oh wait...no I don't.
  13. Man that Firebird gets out of the hole!
  14. The Honda S2000 is about 6,000 more than a Sky 0- it better seem a lot nicer! The Redline version of the Sky will definitely eat up some of that difference but the S2000 is still a more expensive car by a few thousand dollars. That being said I will throw my vote in for a GTO or an Infiniti G35 coupe. I think the G35 is one of the best looking cars on the road.
  15. You are looking at 16-18K for a Trans Am WS6. The Z28 and SS's can be had for 12-14K. There are deals out there of course but that is what they seem to be going for now. You could probably get a really good deal this time of year on one.
  16. I love the RS4 but the price is rediculous. I would rather have a CTS-V. It is not as classy or as well built but at 53K it is 20K cheaper. IMO the Audi is not 20K better.
  17. Joe 0- What color is your RX7? I saw a very nice black RX7 a couple of times on Polaris on Wednesday or Friday (can't remember which). It looked like there was a nice WRX following. Anytime I see a nice car out and running around I always wonder if they are on here.
  18. USC is definitely worthy of taking on the Bucks in the National Championship game. It would be great to see OSU drag the USC defense up and down the field.

    LS1 owns me

    I rode in Sean's - it is very nice and I could certainly drive one without a problem. I just hate the dashboard and the controls on it. The seats are nice however. I prefer the looks of the F-body but that is simply personal taste.

    Congrats - I love mine. They respond so well to simple mods. (Not as well as say, an 03 or 04 Cobra - lol).
  21. Sam's absolutely right - go auto to make it easier, however it can be done - even in pigs like ours: http://www.frozenwaste.com/Frost/RPM/mm_big.wmv He does not hit 9s in this one but he has made it into the 9s on this set up. I looked over on LS1Tech and it becomes apparent there are not many 9 sefc cars there running 6 speeds.
  22. Forged internals....hmmmm wonder why you would need that? Nitrous maybe?? LOL - Congrats man - I cannot wait to see it in action!
  23. That is awesome....anyone got 17K I can have??
