Was it black or grayish blue? Black is rich, grayish blue is oil, white is sweet sweet antifreeze. I don't care what the sensor thinks. To read such a small fluctuation would be very difficult imo. You should log it and see what the factory short term and long term fuel trims are when the issue occurs. MAF would be good too.

I feel like it can be tough to see what the exhaust is putting out from the driver seat, personal opinion.

Truth is, the smoke was red, white, and blue

Swapped on the work boots last night since i plan on taking the car to a show this sunday. Heard some chatter from a few friends that there may be some people looking to get the sauce.

Looks fuggin tough man! Are you hitting up the huge show in Paramus on Sunday? Go kill a Pagani.... Too bad those guys don't actually drive their cars but have them trailered in likely for insurance reasons. Yes I'm jealous and hating.

wretched73 09-28-2018 09:33 AM

Looks good! How many miles have you put on it so far? Still driving well?

Thank you !

I was away all last week, and the week prior was a lot of rain by me, so ive only put about 80 miles on it since the tune. 30 or so of which were on the way home lol.


The car is so much nicer to drive on the skinnies up front. Turning is a breeze and it doesnt get tracked on roads like it does with the 255s up front. (No power steering)

sweetbmxrider 09-28-2018 07:44 PM

12s never looked so good

Chugga Chugga'd up to the Cars and Coffee at Garden State Plaza yesterday morning . Was nice cruising in the crisp air with the T-Tops off in the morning again. I missed that.

Found my rad cap to be leaky, so ordered one from chevy this morn to have for tomorrow. Yesterday was the first time i had a running Fbody in the same place as BLS or Hadji in prob 5 years at least. Feelsgoodman.jpeg

BLS pulled off a candid of me showing my buddy the car.

He also snagged a pic of a Grizzly bear standing by my car.

I'm all about the candid photos. Looking forward to see those wheels up at the rental.

I may or may not have made this reference when seeing a custom color-shifting Lightning at the event.

Quick question...

while cleaning up some stuff around my garage i found my LCA relocation brackets. I completely forgot about them so they never got installed.

Since the car was aligned already, is this something i should hold off doing until next time i get aligned? Or will the location of the arm not affect the DS angle or anything?

LTb1ow 10-08-2018 12:06 PM

I don't think they will, maybe ask Thor?

:bertstare:

sweetbmxrider 10-08-2018 06:46 PM

Are the lcas non adjustable? Either way, they usually are drilled in an arch to maintain the same distance.

The_Bishop 10-09-2018 05:35 AM

Shouldn't change anything if they're made right, the adjustment holes should be in an arch to maintain rear end location.

impressed at your passes at the rental. way to go man, lots of work paid off.

was curious as to what you think your vehicle curb weight is?
and approx horsepower after the tune?
i was not at the rental, and judging by the videos, it didn't appear you had the nitrous in use. do you have it hooked up and plumbed yet or is the car totally without nitrous on all those passes?

Without me in it the car came to either 3030,3031 or 3037. The last digit on the scale was hard to tell Bc it was kind of faded. Car made 428/375.

And I was all motor, I haven’t even purchased the kit yet lol

IROCZman15 11-18-2018 08:27 AM

damn that's awesome. didn't know the car was that light. good for you. yea I could tell by the sound the nitrous wasn't being used, but I didn't know you hadn't installed (or even bought) it yet.

glad the car is working and working well for ya.
