  1. Thanks dude. Yea i was up there yesterday at proxses just shooting the shit. I need to get back there to get some tuning done and this nitrous stuff setup on the dyno.
  2. Damn it, i would have bought this. I just got that same optic a few days ago. This is a great price too! The aa version most importantly lasts a fraction of the time this one will with the 123a's.. Either way, this is the exact same HWS my friend in the special forces uses on his battle 416. Good luck with the sale!
  3. thats with a 275 40 18 run flat goodyear eagle f1. GARBAGE tires. I got them for free just so i could drive to take those pictures. That tire is about 1 inch taller than i want on the car. As a result i had to joe dirt the rear end of the car and it looks all jacked up in the rear with those tires. Now with a 265 35 18 it sits even, the tires tuck into the wheel wells, and when i fry the tires off, i am not frying goodyear writing off the sidewall past 80 haha.. As far as the camber, its a gto. Regardless, you cant get outside of -1.25 degrees even if its sitting on the ground. The rear lower trailing arms just arent engineered to rotate that much to get that much camber. Not to mention id blow the half shafts out of it with some dumbass angle on them if it had a bunch of camber somehow. I cant stand any fad really, so i feel you on the vw twinks. It just sucks sometimes the shit i end up doing, RBs bite and do TJ Maxx versions of. haha.. Its fun to go to those kind of "stance" events though, so i have gained the attention to get the features i guess.. In the end, whatever, maybe some rich kid will eventually buy it off me so i can riceboy out a c6 z06 next, haha.
  4. When i put the car together, it initially was black with the titanium lipped wheels. The downside to having something unique, is often times pictures leak out of it before its completed. There were some pictures of the car with the holden badge on the front and the griffen on the rear. Anymore the car has no badges at all and the grill is removed similar to an 04 cobra i guess is how i could compare it. As far as the faggy riceboy wheels or whatever. Its my daily driver, I have a 2400 lb back halved rx7 with a single turbo 427 going into it that I saved the 325 50 15s for. As far as the tire sizes go, you cant fit larger than a 285 tire on a gto with a larger wheel anyways, so why not just get a larger wheel. I just run 265 R compound tires, and its perfectly fine. Most of the people that tell you "them tars wont hook up, they are too small" buy shit like kelly chargers and sears tires and dont have any idea what they are talking about. Ive had all kinds of heat cycled race tires on here and, this car hooks even in rain when it had 459ft lbs. Just gotta make sure the tire is warm enough, or the street is hot. The answer to traction problems is not always mini tubbing it out and putting tractor suspension on it. This car will still shred turns HARD the way it is. Im willing to sacrifice some straight line performance from a dig, to ultimately have something that corners and drives better at high speeds. As far as the power, that article makes it confusing. The car made 473/459 at the tire on the motor on a stock ls2 longblock. The heads have been worked over a bit, and more bolt ons are on the car putting it right on the 500 mark now. As far as the nitrous, i still have not even driven the car on spray. I would imagine, if the rod bolts dont snap, it will be pretty fast for what it is on juice. If it blows up, ill put a forged 408 in it with a pt88 billet :jerkit:. haha i dont mean to be combative. At the end of the day, it really wouldnt matter what someone else suggested, i am bound in my own ways on how i want the car to look. But at the same time, just because the tires are stretched very minimal, and the offset is 10mm outside of the norm does not mean the car does not handle well or the car geometry is terrible. It def didnt work with the 275 tires i used to have on there from the stance nation feature, but now with a 265 tire, its perfectly finehttp://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u326/CryptKeeper138/r888.jpg. Fenders will all be skimmed over and finished. The ripples are just a casualty of war when you pull the fenders as much as i did to fit what i wanted on the car. I planned on repainting the entire car from the start anyways, so they are wrinkled at the moment, haha.. Once again, im not here to argue, just jawing about how i see it. I built the car to drive and have fun with. Its primary purpose is not drag racing. but.... in the WORST CASE situation, a wheel can be changed by removing 5 lug nuts.
  5. Lol. Thanks! Sorry I'm lacking some photos, ill add more when I get to my house.
  6. Hello, figured id introduce myself. New ass dude from Cincinnati. I have a 06 Gto converted to the UK vauxhall cv8z , and a 88 rx7 10th anniversary turbo that's converted and previously had an ls6 with a wheelspeed progressive 200 shot. Unfortunately blew up the rear end and plans changed. Now has been swapped from the t56 to an rpm level 5 4l65e as well as back halved with a bullet proof totally forged 8.8 torque arm rear end setup. Motor going in was planned to be an erl superdeck 2 blower 427 block with all pro lsw heads and jessel valvetrain. I've gotten a bit distracted with the Gto and balked on the motor for now. Already have the turbo kit for the rx7 tho. I'll post some pictures later, I'm on my phone. A friend of mine said there was a discussion about my Gto so figured id join. Never really gotten into the Cincinnati recent car people, so if you think I'm a part of some gang, I just do cars up cause I enjoy them. Don't really get into the people as much anymore . Haha. Nice to join. My name is colt http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u326/CryptKeeper138/vaux1-2.jpg http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u326/CryptKeeper138/twoofakind.jpg http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u326/CryptKeeper138/IMG_8773.jpg
