New Look

Hey everyone, thought I would share my new look for the car this year. I just finished installing the Ground Control weight jacks, e38 M-Parallel wheels, and my LS1 Front Brake Upgrade from Big Brake Upgrade.

The car is still a turbo 3.1l at the moment, probably will stay the same this summer. Car ran great though. Pulled it out of the polebarn and it fired right up with no issues. Put about 30 miles on it Sunday after everything was installed. Needs an alignment and a tiny spacer for the front wheels.

Thanks for looking!

Re: New Look

Looks great John.

Didn't see you at MIFB Meet & Greet. Would have been nice to look this one over.

I need to do that brake upgrade.

Re: New Look

Dave! I was there, just had the GTO. The camaro was under construction and I didn't have the time to finish it before the show. Shoot, it still needs to be re-tuned right now.


Citation, Thanks for the compliments! It is a lot stiffer but that may be due to my shock/strut setup. As far as cornering though, it is a beast! I have never had so much confidence in the car's handling. It is a huge change.

Doh!

I was there all day. Even stayed late to help Brian clean up. Sorry I missed you. Maybe we'll make it out to Woodward. There's been a little talk about that started on MIFB.
