Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Screwed up with my tint. I used to have 50 percent on my windshield which did look good, but at night i was having some problems when i drive through unlit areas. You never know if you are even about to hit a deer or not, so i took it off Then on the rest of the car i had 20 all around. I wanted the rear to be a little darker. So i put another layer of 20 over my existing tint. Now its almost impossible to see out of the rear windshield but it does look pretty cool. What i should of done was went with a layer of 35 over the 20 which would of given me about 7 percent tint, now i have somewhere around 4. Long story short, i think im going to try it for a few weeks, if i dont like im going to have to remove the tint on the rear windshield and start over ughhh. Plus side is that i can see my Special edition seats now through the front. Before my car looked pretty dark.

did a U bend delete the other day, and finally did a few pulls to see if the kr went down or not, and oh boy did it.

i had to let off before the shift happened but it only saw 1.3 or so in 1 st gear. then i got on it on the highway second gear pull once again i had to let off before the shift. ( f-ing traffic around here) but only climbed up to 3.5 ish.


it used to hit 8* wot and 3 plus at part throttle.

Aw I know that. Class of 84. My favorite saying used to be "If it has an unleaded sticker its too new!". No kids so no need to grow up, and here I am GTP'in it. And whorin about my unusual occupation. Isn't collage like scrapbooking? lol.

Seems like they paint everything brown now. I sure hope that red pearl pops in the sun. I know it will, its a candy sprayed over black.

Scotty I'll give you 50 bones to drop one in my car I only see like 10-13* of N/A knock at wot and up to like 6* crusing. All the KR lmao.

Thats good info to know. SD I couldn't believe you actually bought stuff for that. I woulda said eff the flange and just welded in a straight scrap tube. But I digress, I did the DP on mine and run an emulator. if you make short trips it can take quite awhile before it sniffs that back sensor.

My GT hated months starting with J. I guess I gotta get something to check KR with so I can talk like a GPF-er.

I have no complaints, the ABS light can kill itself but other than that. Runs like a top and no problems, not even rocker rust or strut tower rust but just on my RR quarter panel, just rolled 145k yesterday also.

my rear o2 didnt make the cut lol it fought so hard to stay in the U bend. rounded the nut off then threw it as far as i could. blew off the bung install.

ive got a borrowed dhp right now but cant get the damn thing to work yet. time to delete a few codes.

my res/ glass pack i had a flange wended on to it, but also had to cut the inlet tube off, so i had to re flange the DP side. theres no tube left to weld to.

i like being able to drop the cat back with 2 bolts.

My favorite was after being super hot and heatsoaked fromming sitting for 30min in like 87 degree or hotter heat and taking off with like 5% throttle and pulling 6* of KR.

damn, my car was at 212 coolant temps and still had the u bend and never saw that BS lol

HEI and EPS 750, FTW. Gone cruisin to get my loud on...

Trans was toasty at like 205 also from stop and go traffic and buzzing around royal oak. I hit the highway as it was cooling off like 65 had all the windows down. Blasted heat on foot mode it felt good and dropped my trans temp from 185 to like 176 with the heat on lmao. I wanna say its false because I ran 93 for a month with little to no change.
