September 2011:::
-Great Lakes Dragway
-XP cam, ZZP S2 I/C w/ 3.0" pulley
-Bald (X<1/32" tread) all season 225/55/17 tires
-11.4 AFR (E85) / 10 psi / 26* timing advance
PB = 12.9 @ 110 MPH w/ 2.1 60'

November 2013:::
-Byron Dragway
-XP cam, ZZP S2 I/C w/ 3.0" pulley
-M/T ET Streets 275/45/17 radials
-11.4 AFR (E85) / 10-11 psi / 20* timing advance
PB = 12.9 @ 102 MPH w/ 2.1 60'

Car started knocking badly every run once in 3rd gear ~92-97 MPH
Issue was never resolved, I'm thinking it may have just been a bad tank of E85.
The way the runs were going up until 3rd, I bet I could have had a nice low 12...despite the launch.
Seeing as my 60' is still a 2.1, I need more practice launching.
So very anxious for April, you have no idea.

If it isn't leaking coolant somewhere, it's preparing to leak out somewhere else.


The acc. belt is screeching badly time to time and it's really annoying.
I put some sil-gylde on the belt, and not even 10 minutes of driving later that same mess is back.
It started overheating later, drove it home and shut it off.
It was steaming out from around the upper section of the lower rad hose near the SC idler tower. I'm thinking the block drain bolt, but I just freakin' re-sealed that bolt when the trans went in.


Getting so ****ing tired of this car's ****.

I'd install a new acc. belt if I were you, I've found once they've been contaminated they just don't seem to be the same again.
I had a similar issue this summer after dealing with an oil leak at front crank seal after cam install,got motor sealed back up but no matter how much I cleaned the belt or dressed it the thing would still squeal under load. Installed the new Gates "W" quiet belt and it hasn't made a squeak or squeal since.

very nice car man. i'm extremely jealous of it.... where in DuPage are you?

I took the SC belt and tensioner off to have a closer look when I drive it shortly.
That belt screech is torture on the ears especially with the hood popped, then it goes away / charging voltage back up to 14.6v

[AjL227]

I filled up the radiator, it was fairly low... drove it about 50 miles today and filled it up with more E85.
No issues, coolant leaks or screeching belt.

damn I wish there was more than just the one E85 station near me....not sure why, but your car is the first I've ever actually preferred the Inferno lip on....

The only thing I like about the SE front fascia is that it clips in like factory.
I saw a 2004+ GP downtown Chicago with an SLP hood, never seen one in person.

hows the car start on e85 in the cold, my 04 wouldnt start if it was below freezing on e85

Car has been the perfect snowplow all day, today.
Grips hard everywhere.
Bring on the snow!

I can't sleep, so I went downstairs to the garage and installed the 2nd TRS HID harness/relay & Morimoto ballasts for the fog lights.
Pictures of the lights and wiring setup soon.
They look sick!
