    Also, it says "Please note- The Transgo Shift Kit is NOT a performance shift kit! If your intentions are firmer performance feel shifts then please contact us for additional tips and instructions."

    so if thats the case...why buy it? i mean when i don't have my nixon pcm with maxed out trans settings, it's a sloppy mess. so i'm sure it would help but i thought the whole point of a shift kit is to firm the shifts...

    from what i can tell from my new trans, its has a shift kit in it. when driving around without the perf shift button lit, it drives and shifts very normal, when you hit the button, it shifts a lot harder, especially with a pedal shift at 5400 rpms or so. i really dont like red lining the engine so i let off slightly at 5300 to 5400 rpm and then hammer the gas back down, and its a solid hard shift. if i let it shift on its own (floored to red line) it just sucks it into the next gear with authority!

    hehe. mines an 03 and nix has it 100% in performance mode all the time and i know line pressure is increased i just dont know if its maxed or not. either way. i can only imagine how fun my car would shift with a shift kit lol. i just hate to put any more money in it for fear of the input clutch piston seal to crap out even more. but maybe its worth it idk

    Did a coolant flush then washed and waxed. The Turtle wax spray wax which you use after you wash it makes for a really nice quick job and is actually pretty good.

    Selling my Fuel Logs from my GTP so I can convert to a return style system. Grabbed a return line from an Impala today at the junkyard and the fuel pump to use the canister lid.

    both side of mine were busted so when i did my rack i removed it, drove for 2 months no sway bar, when you get and put a new one in, the car feels like its some one else's.

    Ha, I didn't know how critical or not critical it was to the car.
    I have to go to Columbus, Ohio this weekend and I was worried I couldn't drive it that far (400ish miles round-trip).
    Boyfriend chuckled and assured me otherwise.

    E-mail these guys and find out if it's the Dorman bar they are selling:

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Impala-Regal...ht_2925wt_1561

    I am pretty sure it is.
