I take it back. Would be nice to have studs this morning. But the winterforces did ok.

You shouldn't need studs around here. I run Blizzak LM-25 on my G8 and Firestone Winterforce on my Ranger and they both do great.
-
I only see one LS on the list, so Z28 for me.
-
My G8 is away for the year and I don't think my $800 beater will make it there, sadly
-
Awesome. Planning to lower the G8 with some suspension work come spring and I know I'll rub out back if I don't roll.
What mods/wheels/tires? Mine is lowered and on stock wheels and tires for now. Not even close to rubbing. Should be able to clear a 285 on a 9.5 wheel +50 offset.

Speaking of Mad Hatter. Anyone know if they can weld stainless?
-
I hope that's a misprint because the HPFP is attached to the top of the engine, so I doubt it would be removed for this....
+1. I doubt they removed the DI fuel pump. You still need a normal 60psi pump to feed the HPFP.

I have a pair off of my G8 L92 heads. Don't know if they are what you need or not
Here is a pic. I can unbolt the cats.

Call the dealer a good parts guy can find the connector but you'll probably have to pin it. PM me and I can give you our go to parts guy's info. Is this application specific or are you piecing something together?
-
Nope, one of mine is already put away for the season and as soon as i get a tranny put it my wifes car this weekend, the others goin away to. I just drive a little $500 beater, not worth the money for snow tires lol
I got a killer deal on these. $200 for 2 on ebay. And $60 for 2 on another forum. So $260 on a set of snow tires.
-
I like the lm25's. I had to Drive the G8 last year due to not having another car and with the LSD, they were amazing in the snow.
-
With the weather forecasted this weekend and the way its been, I figured it was time to mount the Blizzaks up and take off the Invos. I don't plan to drive in the snow this year, but the extra traction in the cold in much better. Anyone else putting winter tires on their ride?

Nice rig.Welcome and nice G8!
Thank you.
Sadly the time came today to load up the winter tires. I'll have to mount them this weekend. Invos aren't liking this cold weather.

And to everyone else who I idn't quote, thanks for the kind words. And yes, the caliper covers are coming off soon. About the same time the brembos go on. And no, I didn't pay for the covers, on there when I bought it, just haven't bothered to removed them due to the ugly stock brakes.

I don't usually tell most people from Zanesville about CR, but I figured you'd get in past the oven. Cars and coffee is a good time, even though I have been too busy to make it up this year at all. If you ever want to go some time, I've been planning on trying to make it up some time before winter.
Thanks for the heads up about the site. PM me if you want to go to a meet/race or what not. Although I'm changing over to my winter tires this weekend, I'm always game. Big build coming over winter though.
Welcome from another Newb!Where are you in Zanesville? I live right down the road in Nashport....In Zanesville all the time.
You just missed on the last day at NTR yesterday, it was packed though only got in 3 runs. I love the G8 but they are holding their value extremely well!
BTW is there any kind of meet ups in Zanesville? That town is terrible about car guys...
I live near Autozone. Not too many nice cars, but you catch a couple around town occasionally.
Welcome. How did the tape/car hold up after the driving?Not 100%, but decent. The paint was immaculate underneath though. If I'm going to be on the highway for more than a couple hundred miles I always tape up.
Aside from the High school kids at Mcdonalds and the guy I always see driving the supercharged Cadillac XLR.....I believe it!I'm not sure its actually supercharged. My slow 4-door drug its ass one night.

Super cool! Stockport is a favorite of mine , the roads all around there were built for riding or driving if you are a publord cager. The room at the top of the mill has a hot tub and a cool 360 view of the Muskingum. Definitly a cool place also not far from Marietta which is also old as hell and full of neat places like the Marietta brewing company.
Info on the mill
+1. SR376 is a tried and true favorite of mine

I thought non-gxp G8s were not LS motors?
I'm guessing a gm pickup.
My non-gxp (GT) definitely has a LS engine (RPO code L76).
-
hopefully its a G8
-
Maybe I can talk a buddy into bringing our G8s down. Long drive, but worth it.
-
Looked awesome. I am hoping to do the smokey mountain rally come next year.
-
Welcome! Clean car. Like the color too. Subtle touches like the marker lights are cool. My only suggestion would be to remove the sticker in the pass rear door.
The spring sticker?

I was directed to the site by a contractor working on our building. My Name is Austin and I am from Zanesville. I own a 2009 Pontiac G8. Currently is headers,exhaust,tune,intake,catch can,springs,struts,sway bars, trans cooler, and some mild appearance changes (GXP front bumper and rear diffuser). Car currently makes 354/364 on a Superflow. Will be cammed, and stalled come spring with full supporting mods. Along with a nice set of drag radials. Looking to hit up a few 1/4 miles tracks and road course in the coming year along with at least one road rally.
