I have been working on mini replicas of all the cars I have owned. I just finished a few more up so I figured I'd post. I have gotten my vette, bike, and L done. The cobra is coming along nicely jsut the paint is difficult on the plastic body. The rest are diecast.
The vette, which most have...
Made 426/507 with a conservative tune. Posi was very accomidative for getting me my blower done really fast while my truck was broken and it made great number, so thanks a bunch! I ordered a Mafia becdause my tuner said I may need it so I'm going in for a retune, does it look too lean as is? I...
I couldn't find much info on it. Something is broken in the snout so that the pulley spins freely without turning the blower. What is probalby broken and is it easy enough to rebuild myself in a day or two with hand tools? Or is it better just to send the snout out to magnusun for a rebuild? I...
So most of you saw how I bought my car, with a big ass wolf on the hood. I got tired of being embarassed driving around and started sanding it off. I got a good hole going (took FOREVER by hand) and I was at Pepboys and saw the duplicolor DSG. I picked up the 2 cans they had and went to autozone...
I got on it getting on the freeway and it boosted for a while then stopped. Now it will move in vacuum like it should, but never goes above 0 and boosts.
I'm guessing a vaccum line, but they seem tight. I see one in teh C&L plenum, one on the side of the drivers side lower intake, two on...
So, I picked up my lightning last night. I'm going to save it, don't worry. I'm embarrassed for now, but I'm rocking the team Jacob L until my Cervinis cowl gets here. I should have a full new paint job sometime in february-march.
Alright, go ahead and laugh... ::smmon...
Here's the Z:

I think I'm looking for a stock as possible white lightning, but I'm open to check out anything. I prefer someone close to me.
Just got back from the bank...
Selling my Black H/C 2002 Corvette Z06. Only has 38k miles. This car is a ton of fun and I have put a ton of money into building the drivetrain, but I need to sell it for something cheaper now and start saving for a house (or saving at all lol). I'm interested in lightnings if you have one...
So I'm not sure that this happens very often, but i currently have the H/C Z in my sig with 35k miles and I'm considering selling it and picking up a lightning. I went to the track in the vette recently and broke the tranny, put in a built tranny and rear and went back the next month and...
I have a stock eaton I bought a REALLY long time ago, I know it had no more than 20-30k on it, because I wouldn't have bought it with more. Now I don't even have a cobra anymore so I gotta sell it.
The snout is a little scratched from incorrect use of a pulley puller. It's in the pictures...
Just thought I would share:
My detailer posted it up on bimmerforums so here's his post. The car looks great and I'm ashamed it got so bad. I was in the hospital for a month after wrecking my bike and my roomates hit it with sprinklers and it had a layer of dirt on it. Anyway, if anyone is...
I haven't been to active on here since I got my vette, but I used to be on here all the time. Well, today I sold my cobra. It was really sad to see it drive away. I had the car for about 3 years. Even though I haven't been driving it much since i got my vette it still feels wierd that it's gone...
EDIT: I'll get teh pictures up shortly, they are uploading
Someone may be coming to pick up my car later so I figured I'd post the stuff I have laying around for sale. All prices are OBO + shipping, here we go:
Sorry about some of the pic sizes.
Stock eaton with BF 2.93 pulley. It's...
Just out with the club today and got in a few runs.
The first race the vette makes 440/406 cobra makes 467/464 and teh vette has a slipping clutch. The second one in the vid is jsut them messing around. SN95 going all out and 04 cobra in 4th.
Here's another one. I let off shortly...
Here's what i have. I bought this kit off corral probably near a year ago and never got around to using it.
White 10 lb bottle
bottle brackets
remote opener
blowdown tube
lines and solenoids
Purge solenoid and lines
Bunch of jets
94-98 cobra switch panel (under the little flip cover)...
I just bought this kit off of here not too long ago, but instead of building my motor and putting it on I ended up buying a H/C z06 instead ( :banana: ) . So now I want to sell this kit for some parts for the vette. It was a 99/01 kit when I bought it and I got the bracket for the 96-98,so now I...
Sorry for the long post, but I would really like some advice.
So I just got a quote from teh local shop (G&S Motorsports) who comes highly recommended by the people in my car club and appears to be a very good shop. He admits his prices aren't necessarily the cheapest, but he claims that he...
I just bought a procharger for my car, but I will be rebuilding the motor first. Say I have about $7k to play with. Make some suggestions on what my setup should be.
I'm probalby going with the street mod 900 with my block and crank. Then I'll need to rebuild the tranny. I was thinking...
I bought a procharger from the market section today. Kind of a spur of the moment thing. I'm so exicted I can't stop thinking about it. :banana: :dancenana: :banana:
It's an 01 cobra kit so I will have to get the brackets and stuff for my car. I don't think i can put it on until after I...
So, my company was recently bought out by Microsoft and at first I was scared of possibly losing my job. I just got my job offer on Monday and let's just say I am beyond Ecstatic at what they offered me. I am making a HELL(!!!) of a lot more than the $34k I was making before. My lifestyle is...
Hey guys,
So my car has smoked for a long time, but it was never really too bad to worry about. Well after doing a cruise people kept telling me how bad it smokes after I go WOT. Tonight I drove home for about an hour and at the end I did a run in frist to the top of second and i could see...
I tried to use my windshield wipers this morning and nothing happened when I turned the know. However, they still work if I push the button on the end.
Any ideas?
Coming home tonight a Subaru legacy pulled up next to me. It had two people in it and he was pacing me and letting me hear the turbo so I know he wanted to go. We got up so there was no traffic and his passenger counted it down with his fingers out the window. I immediately pulled about 1/2 car...
I hear a lot of people convert their blow through to a draw through on prochargers. Why is that? I want to run a vortech with an a/a and run a BOV, but I don't want something that will be unusable. What do you guys think? I know a lot of you run FMICs and I searched a little, but not much cuz...
