  1. I've seen that car I believe, the one with a huge blower sticking out of the hood? Freakish car, wrong platform IMO, and the rear end was jacked up right?

    New here...

    Ouch, I bet those are going to be heavy. Not everyone here has a Z car, some are just hunting, like I was some months ago. Welcome
  3. I am not sure its the same guy, but the 8 second GN guy has a buddy with a Diablo, and several other friends with hot cars, like the Lambo Murcielago. I also have a vid of him riding shotgun in a Sledgehammer Vette doing 200 and then backing off, he works for Genentech so they are making some bucks.
  4. 315s are just about the biggest they can fit without mini tubs or pulling the quarter panel out a bit (like a flare).
  5. I'm glad it was glowing brakes, I almost thought "oh no..."

  7. I hope thier other products work better than thier short lived LT1 offering It still retained the distibutor for timing, and it would fire out of phase every once in awhile as it lost timing, crappy setup.
  8. With thier sales, I dont know that anyone needs to stand up for em.
  9. Dont know, I could try to look in the trans area if needed. There is a vehicle speed sensor in the tailshaft of the trans, and there is CAGS. Maybe the gauge of the wire would clue you in a little, connector type?
  10. Maybe he bought an automatic trans LT1 and bought the T56 seperately? There may not be alot of difference between the two harnesses to save GM money, but I really dont know. I do know that A4 cars who swap to M6 will get codes without the A4 present until they flash to an M6 setup, but the car will still run.
  11. I like some of the Honda cars and wouldn't mind one as a driver, but not my flavor for racing.
  12. Glad I could help, that first one I'm not sure of, I never touched my fuel pump at all but have had the top end off and on the car more times than I wish to remember, so I've seen that part of the harness enough times. Good luck
  13. Second connector goes to the back left head (drv side), it sends oil pressure to your guage, it has only one wire correct? First one I can't ID, maybe if I could see the connectors, but it may be an O2 harness peice near the trans tunnel, hard to say.
  14. Not all Hondas are ricers true, but all that work for a 14 second car? Sounds great if you use it to AutoX or something, but if you drag 14 seconds is slow, no fibbing about that one. I prefer cubes just because its easy/cheap and almost always going to be more reliable than a 1.6L trying to punch out 800 HP, and it isn't going to happen on pump gas either. Not a flame, just speaking from a monetary and feasible point of view. Kind of like the saying, you cant polish a turd Beavis. With that said I still wouldn't mind a slow CRX for a daily beater.
  15. Finally got around to routing the wiring tonight, what a freaking beach. I suppose I may be done sunday.
  16. To replace the distributor? Coils dont replace distributors, and very often the most serious mods for aftermarket computer setups may require modding a distributor or using a crank trigger setup, but I dont know that I've seen a setup without a distributor of some kind yet.
  17. Damn good chance of flat spotting after sitting so long. The man doing work for you may not care about a damn thing you own, hence do your own work or take the risk and financial beating. No I'm not advocating balancing your own tires, find a good tire shop. Luckily there is a good alignment/tire shop south of me.
  18. Your serious? How would the cylinders seal with 4 bolts dude, that would work for one cylinder, not 6.
  19. Depends on your experience level, what you want, and how you do things. Someone did a 5.0 swap documented for under a grand.
  20. I am going to run the 240 tank for awhile. I'm using the 5/16" fuel feed as a return and 3/8" new line on the bottom of the tank (drain plug) as my new feed. Without having a rubber bladder or etc inside the tank, any fuel slosh on a low tank can end up sucking air, and that will cause detonation, detonation = death. On stock cast pistons probably a good to fair chance of instant death especially under hard driving conditions that will usually cause slosh. So as a precaution on the street I'll be running a 1/2 tank or more always until fixing the problem with a cell or new tank, and on the track stay to 3/4 or above.
  21. Crap, never mind. He said he was, then he said "oh not that Darius."

  24. The car had no problems until a wheel/tire swap. Alignment could be it because the size is larger, but that car did sit for awhile so who knows what its history was, in terms of fix a flat and etc
  25. If it did have a V8 in it someone would have been able to hear it.
