Bought some of the specialty tools necessary to degree the cams.
:fm::cuss::mj:still no corner lights so the car is just sitting:fm::mj::cuss:
happy b-day man. the autotrix kit is really easy to install and they look pretty cool.
^was the dash pod hard to install?
did u break one or what?QUOTE]
i broke one of them while i was taking them out. i ordered more on monday but the guy didn't ship until wednesday so they will be here next week. i got my new envoy fogs installed and they look great but unfortunately i wasn't able to salvage my hid bulb so new ones are on there way also. i've had a rough couple of weeks with this car.
WEIGHT REDUCTION
Spent about 2-3 hours in the cold on my car today.
Mach rear deck AMP
sound deadening/insulation from behind panels
Removed back seat belt
Wheel wells
Windshield wiper fluid container and hoses associated with it...I believe thats about it. [this is on top of allll the other weight reduction I have done on my car]
I also bought an A/C delete pulley from a friend of mine that I will be putting in on a day that I'm free and that the weather is more favorable :]
Hitting the track up today..not sure how it will do in the cold weather [ET wise], but I'm hoping for maybe a 113mph slip with my 3.27s!
tell me how it goes on the ac delete. im thinking about doing the same thing because mine dont work anyways. you need to do a write up on all the things you have done to your car. im looking to go down the same path.WEIGHT REDUCTION

I'm going to pull mine out too. It just looks cleaner under the hood, IMO, and I NEVER drive in the rain. What was the deal about taking out the wheel wells? I don't believe it saves any weight really, and it may actually hurt performance to have the passenger side out when the filter is located there. Something about the spinning tire creating a vaccuum and not allowing all the air to get to the filter? :shrug:
Anyway, good luck on hitting your 113 mph!

MORE weight reduction
^^^ My 2 month plan
i got my tag light l.e.d.'s installed and i'm now working on some l.e.d.'s in the trunk and inside the car. it should look cool when i get it all done.
I hit it! I could NOTT hook all day.
You could hear my tires spin all the way through first gear and 2nd gear my friend could see me getting sideways. 12.9@113mph
Then I was pedalling SOO much on first gear the next run, and still had some steering to do in 2nd gear and that was a 12.90 @113.4 mph
Both runs were like..2.2-2.3 60'
last run was against a turbo'd 350z, he had me out of the holeshot by about 2-3 cars. Second gear I started gaining on him, and when I shifted into third gear I just blew his doors off, felt nice :rockon:
hot damn your cars gonna run good!
****yeah! :rockon:
unless you plan to delete the entire a/c system (condenser, evaporator, heater core), I wouldnt bother with the hassle of that pulley.
you won't have any traction at all after the 4.56's. hope you like donuts:burnout:
