    SOLD: 2004 “04Sleeper” torch red coupe

    I bought The 04Sleeper from Kevin Dunn almost 12 years ago now…time flies when you’re having fun! This is one great terminator that has garnered many accolades, including 5.0 magazine and Car Craft articles…a real gem. It turns heads every single time I take her out. Batting 1.000 in car...

    carpro orange peel pad velvet

    I picked a couple of these up several months ago before my car went into storage, so I never got a chance to try them until recently once I got the car back. This car's paint was already well maintained, good oem '04 torch red paint with typical orange peel... but I thought I'd give these a try...

    Defanged the poor cobra 150hp today…E85 -> 93

    Ok, I did it. The process itself was a breeze took no more than 15 minutes. Idled the car down until the low fuel light came on, swapped the 2.6" RR pulley for the 3.0", used the exact same factory sized belt (thanks whipple tensioner…zero belt slip), and poured in 7 gallons 93. Loaded up the...

    anyone rented a trailer from penske, uhaul, home depot, etc…??

    Well I'm moving and contemplating back n forth on driving the terminator or hauling it…have a few more weeks to decide. I'm trying to research how this will work…especially with how wide the tires are (305/35/18 rear, 275/35/18 front) and with how low the vehicle is front lip to exhaust. The...

    Dodo Juice OC on torch red

    I really like this orange crush. I picked up a 30ml sample a few days ago to try and I'm impressed with the shine. Underneath its fully corrected with woflgang deep gloss 3.0 as the sealant, then there is one coat of pinnacle souveran from a few weeks ago and the car has just been sitting in...

    Alcohol rub down as pre sealant/wax cleanser?

    Was reading about this on another detailer forum and was wondering how safe it was? Seems a little scary....but most were recommending diluting with distilled water and use in a spray bottle. Says it helps remove old residual waxes or sealants and also exposes any swirls left over from your...

    9 month old E85

    I had about 1.5 gallons in a 5gal container inside my non-climate controlled garage since April 17th. We see anywhere from 100+ deg in summer with massive humidity...to mid 30s in winter. It tested 85% on 4-17....I decided to finally retest today.

    r888 and ccw's

    I got my new r888s a couple of weeks ago and I've got to say its a pretty badass tire, hooking far better than I imagined it would for a 100 tread rating. These are 305/35/18s on an 18x11 rim.

    2.3 whipple makes terrible TQ..... LOL

    ok, as some of you know I was very fortunate to be the buyer of The 04sleeper car almost 2.5 years ago. I have made no setup changes at all to how Kevin had built it in 2009. Its the factory original motor, 2.3 whipple, full returnless fuel system, 2.6" upper pulley/factory lower, manifolds...

    60-??? 3-4 wot sct datalog

    I datalogged a pretty froggy 3-4 6500rpm run the other night (closed course of course). Unfortunately the sct datalog stops tracking vehicle speed at 127.50 somewhere around 6000 in 4th? I have stock t56 gearing and a 26.5" tall rear tire on 18" rims I ran the car to redline in 4th, I...

    anyone switched to E85? ???'s on fuel system

    I'm helping my bro-in-law switch his '02 harley over to E85. Trying to piece together the fuel system. He's keeping the eaton, going with a 4lb metco lower for a 93 tune and an 8lb lower for the E85 tune. Keeping the factory upper. Going to run FMS 80lb inj, BAP, mafia, and whatever intank...

    switched over to E85

    now this car has been setup for E85 since the day I bought it (this is Kevin's old car...the 04sleeper). To make a long story short, due to availability and other non car related issues.... I finally got around to swapping the pulley (2.6 from a 3.0 93 tune) and dropping in the 22psi e85 tune...

    congrats to 04sleeper: September 5.0 magazine article

    I'm hoping this isn't a repost, I did a quick search and didn't see anything here....but I was walking by the magazine rack at the grocery store and took a look at the September 2011 5.0 magazine and low and behold there's a great article on the car. Starts on pg 88 and runs a few pages...

    picked up torch red coupe

    I'm the proud new owner of the 04sleeper car. Everyone probably already knows about this car, so I won't go on and on about what it has. The only thing I've changed are the rims/rotors. Its a thrill to drive, really enjoying the car. I even enjoy cleaning her. Hats of to 04sleeper for...

    AP says feds expected to OK more ethanol in gasoline | Richmond Times-Dispatch obama and his cronies are close to signing the new 15% ethanol into law. My question is.....wasn't 10% bad enough? What is this going to do to our motors designed to run on something different? I know some...
