    Godzilla!

    The "voice" in that voice over, is Robert Oppenheimer, father of the nuclear bomb. That's taken from an interview with him.

    Calling all 600+whp MT82 owners...

    2 years, 38,000 miles, a few hundred launches, and no real issues with mine. It started the whine at MIR two years ago, but that has pretty much gone away with time and miles. I run a Stage 2 clutch kit, the JPC clutch line upgrade and installed a new slave. Seems to be holding up pretty well...

    Thanks for the deal, they are already on the car!

    6r80 conversion

    Thanks! That's considerably cheaper than the 4R70 swap. Another option to consider now.

    6r80 conversion

    Does anyone have a breakdown on this swap as far as cost goes? I'm considering an auto swap for my '12, mostly a strip car with limited street cruising time on nice weekends. I'm currently leaning towards the 4R70 swap with the Bauman controller. Thanks!

    Current best tuner

    Wow, you're way down south! Still be a good road trip up to Brenspeeds new shop though. Nothing beats a good dyno tune.

    Current best tuner

    Brenspeed opened up a new place just south of Dallas. Not sure where Mercedes is, but it might be worth the drive to get it done right. I'm currently running one of Justin's (VMP) tunes in my '05 and it runs great. He's always done good work for me.

    WhiteLine Positive Shift Trans bushing insert

    I ordered one as well. Not worried about NVH either.

    326 Startup.... Bad Knock...

    Hard to tell from a video, but that noise does not sound low in the engine to me. Sounds up high, like in the valve train.

    Cell phone mount

    I've got a mount like that for my iPad, works pretty good. For the phone, in my '05 at least, I prefer the ProClipsUSA.com mount that goes between the center a/c vents. I bought mine years ago for my first '05 and my then current iPhone. Ordered a new phone mount part for the Galaxy S4 and...

    Ran over a spike, can it be fixed?

    Yep, I'd be ordering a new tire if it was me. But I tend to drive a little "spirited" on the weekends, and the last thing I want on my car at speed is a plugged or patched tire. Normal driving, I'm sure you'll be fine though.

    Visiting DFW/Plano-Dragstrips?

    Yellow Belly has been around for a very long time, but these days, you better be armed if you go there. Quarter mile tracks in the area are Dallas Raceway (Crandall) and The Motorplex in Ennis. Eighth mile tracks in the area are Denton (Northstar) and Texas Raceway (Kennedale). Redline is...

    I have had enough of the MT-82

    I guess I've been lucky with mine. I beat on her pretty regularly and the trans has never missed a beat. I do have a Stage 2 clutch in her now, along with the Barton shifter and bracket (and the spring has been removed). A little stiff in the shifting department now, but she rows through them...

    Kenne bell intake question?

    The thread was dead anf you have to come in and try to be one of the cool kids. And noone lied. I knew the sale ad was up, and exactly how much I spent ( I signed the cc receipts after all), I was merely trying to get under Mitchs skin. Looks like it worked twice. Maybe I should patent this as...

    Kenne bell intake question?

    Nothing like coming late to the party and attempting to stir up some shit, and then failing miserably. Bandwagon jumping is obviously not your strong suit. Better luck in your future pursuits.

    Brenspeed's second location now open! TEXAS!

    Spent a couple of hours talking with Don yesterday about ya'll taking over the tuning of my '12. Looking forward to hearing back from him soon about this, as the car, as it sits right now, is just a PITA to drive daily. WOT is eye opening, but you can't live at WOT all the time!

    Is it wrong to want this car??

    ^^^LOL at the ninja quote edit. And Dale, it's not wrong at all. As soon as he pulled up to Hooters at the get together I wanted it. And I haven't wanted a GM product since the 70's.

    Looks like he used good quality parts (SSBC brakes, Cervinis body and exhaust, Procharger blower, etc), just used way too many of them.

    ....I have seen it all.....(mustang wise)

    The green S197 and the white coupe have major suspension mods to get those "things" to fit and not rub. It could be undone, but it would mean new suspension. All that white thing in the original post really has on it is bolt on bodywork (admittedly, it has every piece of bolt on bodywork that...

    As far as show cars go, that's really not all that bad. Yes, it's way overdone, but still, all in all, in the car show world, that just isn't that bad. These, however, are really bad -
