NorCalSS

thanks for the comments guys! wheels are 22" american eagle 026's, adams2003 has them on his truck and also quite a few other members have got em' on too.

daymn! that ride is sick! is that a true SS, cuz I didn't know the 04's came in 2wd. anywho, I haven't seen a slammed arrival blue SS before. what setup do you have and what size rims are you running.

good job, i don't even know who you did that and blended it in so well, what tools did you use to blend in the street markers into the sky, "burn, dodge, sharpen"? anybody remember the photoshop thread on another forum where a girl is riding on a back of bike showing her thong, and then from there everybody photoshopped that picture to hell. that was hilarious!

sweet , i just downloaded photoshop cs2 and i'm ready to start gettin' into photochopping. those guides will help a lot, thanks

size tires i'm running are 305/40/22, these wheels are really well made and the finish on the chrome is real nice for the price compared to other higher priced 22's.

yeah, i had a feeling you changed the title when i looked at it again. so i might as well use the "right" name cause' i know you'll change it anways lol! yup, i'm even getting parts from your truck to go on mine just to be like you! haha! btw, have you figured out when you're getting those headers off yet? thanks

yeah i know, i'm just trying to live up to my idols, lol. i couldn't pass up the deal on these wheels so i had to get em'. so far, no vibrations while driving, but the when going over bumps on the freeway you can really feel it! i think i may need to cut the bumpstomps one more nub. i only cut the first nub of each bumpstomp. -ejay

Here are some other pics I took of while cruising around the Bay Area this weekend: Photos taken from Yerba Buena Island: Golden Gate and Alcatraz: 2nd Half of Bay Bridge: San Francisco Cityline: Carquinez Bridge that connects Crockett to Vallejo (My Hometown): Golden Gate Bridge from the Marin Headlands Side: San Francisco Giants Vs.

Hey guys just recently threw on some new wheels: 22" American Eagle 026's and a "McGoofy's" 2/3.5 drop. I know everybody and their mama got these wheels but I couldn't pass up on a deal to do the drop and wheels combined. Bling Bling! Lol! Thanks to Adam (adams2003), Steve (Mister P) for helping out with the drop. If I didn't have you guys' answers the install would have gone to hell! Here's the pics, Enjoy!: Before the drop w/ stock chrome 20's: "McGoofy's" 2/3.5 Drop w/ 22" Wheels, Pictures taken at Yerba Buena Island overseeing the San Francisco Cityline and Bay Bridge:

I have a set of TOG's on my truck right now that I may be selling in the near future. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> sweet, if you could let me know when you do take them off, i'll gladly take them off your hands!

thanks for the reply guys, hey chase i was reading in another post that you had several TOG headers layin' around, are you sellin' them? so far we don't know if asm's are ca smog legal, and the bellangers are probably not smog legal, right. man what do us cali guys do for headers?

hey there guys, i was just reading on asm's website: 1999-2005 4.8L, 5.3L and 6.0L GM Trucks and SUV Headers that their headers are now carb legal. i am in california and need to pass smog. are these headers mid or long tubes? what are your experiences with these headers and are there any headers better then these that are smog legal. i know TOG's headers are no more, but am willing to get a set of used ones if anyone has a set lying around! thanks guys. -ejay

Not sure if this is news to you guys but i was reading: GM to Cap Gasoline Prices in Calif., Fla. that GM will be giving rebate incentives to those who buy their vehicles. "...General Motors Corp. on Tuesday said it would cap pump prices at $1.99 for customers in California and Florida who buy certain vehicles by July 5." "The offer is good for 2006 and 2007 model year vehicles. In California, eligible vehicles are the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban sport utility vehicles and Impala and Monte Carlo sedans; the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs; the Hummer H2 and H3 SUVs; the Cadillac SRX SUV; and the Pontiac Grand Prix and Buick LaCrosse sedans. In Florida, eligible vehicles are the Impala, Monte Carlo, Grand Prix and LaCrosse." "GM will credit drivers the difference between the average price per gallon in their state and the $1.99 cap. The credits can be used through December 2007. Consumers wouldn't get any credits if gas prices fall below $1.99." "Each month for one year, GM will give drivers a credit on a prepaid card based on their estimated fuel usage. Fuel usage will be calculated by the miles they drive, as recorded by OnStar, and the vehicle's fuel economy rating." The only catch is that you have to pay 16.95 a month for the Onstar Diagnostic Service after the first free year, which isn't all that bad when you add everything up. Last time I checked 87 octane gas here is 3.37 a gallon, so with the 1.99 difference, that's 1.38 a gallon GM will give you for each gallon you pump for that month. Might be a good time for me to consider trading in my old 90' 4Runner for a new Yukon! What do you guys think about the new promotion GM is trying to sell. If all goes well they might consider giving the promotion to other states soon after. -ejay

Thats a good question, I'm gettin my PCM from bryan in the mail tomorrow! I wonder if the tow/haul mode does change much? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yeah, my tune is from bryan at pcmforless and was wondering if his tune includes the tow/haul and if it changes the tune at all.

i remember watching vids of parish launching his truck with 4wd first, then shifting to 2wd. it was amazing how that truck pulled off the line in 4wd. also, how bout' those that are pcm tuned, does using the tow/haul mode make any difference? -ejay

sweet, thanks guys

hey guys, should i get my pcm retuned by bryan at pcmforless because i am going to replace my dual exhaust flowmasters with a corsa sport exhaust system soon. is it worth it to send the pcm back for a 50 buck retune or should i just keep the same program. thanks -ejay

good luck with the auction, when i saw the car in person, that paint job was just sick, the pictures don't do it justice.

yeah it sucks that we have no impact sensors on the truck, are there any aftermarket alarms that allow you to keep the "1" and "2" key fob functions that are on the factory alarms. i like the fact that my seat adjusts when i hit the unlock button on the key fob.

i just ordered a set of corsa sports from the tbyrne sale. right now i just have air intake w/ no F.I. and no headers, so i know it won't rumble as loud with headers, but maybe i'll get a set soon! i'll let you know how it sounds when they go on.

ay, those are rims are clean, wonder where you got those from, you probably stole em', huh? j/k, they look good on the truck,

well wish me luck Steve, hopefully my install on the McGaughy's kit goes well. good thing you found a good shop to help you with your current problems. thanks again bro for all your help! -ejay

payment sent, check pm! thanks!
