Saabretooth 8 Report post Posted August 11, 2013 Hi guys and gals, Just popping by to take a look see at things this side, and I've enjoyed most of the silent readings so far. Hope to get more out of it here as much as possible as I am learning about my car each time I tweak something or replace a worn part. Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LJ_GQV 115 Report post Posted August 14, 2013 Nice list sounds like a lot of time, effort & money has gone into it The easiest way to post photo's is by using photobucket (or any other photo hosting website) & just link them from there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saabretooth 8 Report post Posted August 14, 2013 :wow: That's one sorted GT Well erm I've done cf2s and wizard front pipes and auto delta carbon intake pipe. Its just a culture here, where we have the car for a very limited time, we might as well pour as much heart and soul into it before we finally have to scrap and export it. Unless we pay a hefty fee to renew the right to own it for another 10 years. You've done yours right from a power perspective. the most grunt I got off the V6 was from the CF2 and EQ pipes. Had a Supersprint muffler but sold it off as it was a bit too boomy for my liking. With the stock rear box, the car flies off the starting line like cat on a hot tin roof! You should try the chassis collars on stock suspension. I honestly felt that a stock car should have left the factory that way. It makes the stock suspension feel comfy and yet excellent road holding. For just a bit more ROAR and go, the aftermarket top engine mount is a must do. you'll be very surprised at the amount of instantaneous pull you get with your throttle. And last but not least, the short shifter, so that it feels like a real sports car, instead of one with Truck like gear shifts. Mine shortens the shifter by about 40-50%. The rest are just for fun and additional power for bragging rights. Nice list sounds like a lot of time, effort & money has gone into it The easiest way to post photo's is by using photobucket (or any other photo hosting website) & just link them from there Thanks will try that one out. Time is alright, its usually a day or 2 max at the workshop. the pipes took 2 days to fabricate and the CF2s went in the same time as I the timing belts and clutch, so another 2 days max. The rest are usually a 1 day job to get it in. Its the $$$ part that is painful. Good thing I have built a little "trust fund for that" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
