:w00t:















still ALOT of bugs to work out, but for the most part, it's freakin awesome! pics to follow shortly. these said problems include:

1. the car is still untuned!
2. suspension needs alot of tweaking
3. car is overheating (which i would like to thank John (pampered-z) for helping me get it to limp home from mufflex
4. alot of smoke and smells coming from all angles of the cars.
5. i have a 12 bolt in it, but i am still debating selling it and reverting back to a 10 bolt to shave off some of the debt from this fiasco

but thats about it. the car pulls like a damn freight train and sounds amazing!

I knew something was up with the post about mounting the tires, then asking for bills number. Congrats Jake! I'm glad to hear you have it again. Now lets get some real man pictures of your car!

thanks guys.... working out the bugs so i can drive it proved to be more of a problem than i thought. between my shoulder, studying for my summer class, and starting on goofy's car; i decided to let a shop finish the tuning,the rear and suspension problems. i'd like to take it to josh, but i want a place that could tune it as well. thats why eastside came to mind. but does anyone know a tuner that could possibly make house calls and do it at josh's? anyone have any suggestions? i called all the nj ls1 shops and they are all booked.

Sorry I didn't call you back yesterday Jake, I didn't get the message till late.

I can't do the tuning gig anymore since starting to work for hptuners...conflict of interest.
