  1. Looks alot like the outgoing model... I read it would be a mostly a "cosmetic refresh" and not a new design (I was hopeful). Not a huge fan of the current bodystyle and still not based on the spy shots of the test mules. I hate, HATE the large gap bewteen the rear tires and wheel arch and it looks like it grew another foot and a half since the last model for some reason. It looks more and more like Bigfoot with street tires. I say keep the black tarps on those things and wake me up when there's a new Silverado SS... I've never been happier with my 2003 SS Silvy.
  2. I have also met & delt with Chris personnally on several occasions when he lived close by. He is a genuine guy and a personal friend. I hope everything gets resolved to everyones satisfaction.
  3. Cool idea.... The fitment / design of the headlights & tail lights on the Trans Am-aros just don't look right to me. (Especially the tail lights) And why would they make a GTO Judge out of the Camaro? Pontiac already made a late model GTO.
  4. I haven't delt with relpacing catalytic converters before. Are these direct replacements for the existing cats as far as fitment is concerned? Will I need to modify anything to put these in?
  5. Looking for a Corsa sport exhaust system to replace my current one. Does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy is? Thanks in advance.
  6. The BBC version (original) is much better by far (and much more funny). I hate that fat guy... who is he anyway? The only cast memeber that seems tho know anything is Tanner Foust. He can sure drive the piss out of a Dodge Viper. The one good thing about the US version is that old Britsh guy isn't there to make fun of American vehicles anymore... Here is a link to one of my favorite moments from the original Top Gear. Nothing this funny will ever come from the American version, I promise.
  7. I'll drop mine off at your house and you can do mine.
  8. As good as you are with painting and such, you ought to be able to buff that right out!
  9. Are these replacement pads for the stock brakes?
  10. I'd give District 9 a D+. The story had too many holes in my opinion. It was also somewhat anti-climactic at the end. I thought the speacial effects, computer animation was top notch on the other hand. For those of you who hated the movie Cloverfield, you will not like this film.
  11. Me too! What the heck is goin' on?
  12. This one has been to the Autozone accessories department too many times. Tacky. Easily fixed though.
  13. SS badges looks good since you're going the murdered route. Also, If your gonna run the black SS wheels w/o the center cap, why not get some chrome lugs or something to dress it up a bit.
  14. Lexol makes a leather cleaner and conditioner. Works well. No experience with the other brands. Armor-All is trash.
  15. Nice SSs! Now you need a matching hockey stripe for your truck. Rider Graphix
  16. How much are the air compressors at Home Depot? -The reason I'm asking is because I want to covert one into a supercharger for my SS. I figure $350 beats $5,000 for a Radix. After that I think I will try the carbord intake and the vent duct snorkel mod. Thanks for the ideas! P.S. I quit.
  17. It looks like something MacGyver rigged up with a gun to his head. I would invest in the actual GM e-fan parts or get a kit from Mr. P / Srayed99. You will also need to retune your PCM to get the fans to run, but I'm sure you already knew that.
  18. My sentiments exactly. History does reapeat itself on occasion. I think this will be much the same transition cars went through in the 60's on into the 70's due to the previous oil crisis. The difference of course being cars of the sixties (cool-muscle car era), cars of the 70's (suck a$$ $hit) I'm all for more economical cars and what not, but this will be at the cost of the automakers and taxpayers at a critical time. I bet we will see the quality and dependability of our country's cars suffer (just like the 70's) with automakers at the present state coupled with changing technologies. I hope GM and all the other domestic manufacturers will see it through to better ecomonical times.
  19. This is EXACTLY what I want under my seat! What do I have to do to get one made? I wish I had the materials / know-how to make one myself. Very very nice Cory. I hate you
  20. I've got a Hypertech 160 stat. No problems.
  21. Yeap... Probably won't shift right if you do that (shift too hard or not at all). I beleive the line pressure settings have to be tuned back to stock. I'm sure one of the tuner gurus will chime in and back me up on this!
  22. Photos From the Event: A BIG thanks to Pete from Iowa Muffler & Rich (SSPOSSE) for organizing the event. A good time was had by all. I'm sure these will be the first of many photos. Our muffler assortment... Bacontk's truck getting his custom Flowmaster installed: "Whissle" Fast4Popper's truck was also in attendance. Freshly painted the day before. Wow! Can't wait to see it when you get it all together Chris! Other photos:
