I snapped my passenger side stub axle last weekend. I'm making more horsepower and have been running them since 2011. It was from a second gear pull. Driver side looks like it's twisting. I'm running a ls1 on street tires. I'll see if I can upload some pics later.
I've burnt too many plug wires on these headers. Finally was able to fit the oem metal cover on cylinder 5. So far so good, but i'll probably end up burning this one out too. lol
I'm running toyo t1r 245 /45/16 with a ls1 swap. They are pretty decent tires, still lose traction in first but they grip in the other gears as long as its dry.
Mine seeps, But it's only seeping and I think it might be more trouble then what it's worth. I have a new seal but I'm not sure if im going to do it. It's not dripping but i know it's leaking I can see the resdue.
This might sound dumb but make sure your throttle body blade is completely closing. I had the same issue when i let off slowly it would stick slightly open and i was fighting to slow it down. Mine turned out that the spring for the throttle blade wasn't completely winded so it was sticking open.
Motor Trend is reporting that its going to be a "front-drive-based sports car"...
