In the GTA? Yes. In other cars...no. You fail. You're about a tenth off.

Just you wait until I get my quad-turbo, magnacharged and naaaaaaaaaaws motor done.

2 more weeks is all I need..........


































Jeep suspension / trans / transfer case are being moved into a new-to-me body with FAR less rust. At this point, that won't happen until the weather warms up a little bit though.

Hopefully you won't include those busted shocks in the transfer!

No, springs and shocks are not going to the new heep. I'm taking the adjustable control arms, track bar, sway bar disconnects, and a few other little bits for re-use and getting new springs and shocks.

I guess I'll bite. Firstly, I did a remote starter for the Saturn which I don't know why I didn't do earlier!

Got some stuff planned for the Camaro over the winter. List includes:

New LCAs and TA relocation and DS loop
New Seats, steering wheel, and pedals
Some weight reduction
Hopefully save up for a Watts Link
Other assorted odds and ends around the car.

I'm very excited for what 2011 will bring for motoring. I plan on devoting more time (and funds) to car related stuff.

A STS-V would look happy in there.

For my '82 Z28:

C5 front brakes...done. What a PITA. Box got damaged during shipping, so the adaptor bracket got damaged, had to wait for a replacement, bolts fell out of box during shipping, had to wait for replacements. Took a lot of shopping to find a 12mm allen socket and avoid shipping $$, but Shaeffer's hardware in Dover came through.

Front springs and ball joints...done. Went back to my Moog 5662 minus 1/2 coil springs, pulled out the GM CDB minus 1/2 coil pieces I put in after the LS1 swap. The Moogs are stiffer, understeered a bit w/ 255-50R16 Goodyear track slicks so they were shelved. This year I'm upgrading to 275-40R17 tires and don't have room for the nosedive the CDB springs allowed.

Comp roller rocker trunnions...done. Sent my stock LS1 rockers off, came back w/ Comp upgraded trunnions installed. Measured pushrod length, found my 7.400" rods weren't long enough to put proper preload on my lifters. 7.4500" would have been too long, so 7.425" were ordered and installed.

Injector cleaning and flow-matching...done. Sent my 28# LS1 injectors off for ultrasonic cleaning and flowing, put the highest-flowing ones on cylinders 5,7,8 and matched up the rest by cylinder bank. Probably sell my SVO 30# injectors, they ran nice but the stock ones are large enough to stay below 85% duty cycle.

High-beam indicator on dash...not started yet. My electronic speedo has no provision for a high-beam indicator, got pulled last Fall for failing to dim lights for oncoming traffic. Written warning only, but a PITA so I'll be adding some sort of indicator light.

+1 on this would like less vehicles in the driveway if possible to get to my 2 car garage, but it hasn't changed in some time. One day.

As for actual running cars nothing is necessary for me just keep them as clean as possible with all this salt on the road.
