Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Broken trans at the track.

    Hey guys. This past sunday I was at the local drag strip. Second pass of the day I spun pretty bad so I let off and floored it again. On the 1-2 shift it neutraled out. I came to a stop and was towed off of the track. When in park or neutral it is quiet. In reverse or drive it whines kind of...

    Funday Sunday!

    Yesturday I went to the local track for some passes. Temps in the low 90's. Ran a new personal best. This is with a newly installed devils own kit with 10gph nozzle. It was set to around 18 psi. Mickey thompson et street radials on no burnout. Another highlight of the day was running a gtr...

    Meth/water injection with l36 intake.

    Hey guys. I am just trying to squeeze a few tenths out of the car at the track. It consistantly runs 12.0-12.3. I would like to add a little more timing or boost. I will be tuning with dhp and a wideband after the install. I just ordered the devils own progressive dvc-30 kit. I am going to be...

    New personal best! Finally 11s

    Went to the track yesterday for the local test-n-tune. This is the first run since I picked up my new m/t et street radials. They hook a lot better then my last set of tires. My first pass of four was the best at 12.16@114. As the night went on the track cooled off and traction became an...

    97 turbo gp at the track.

    Last night I made it out to the local track. I finished up the car a little while back and still trying to get all of the kinks worked out. I was running some borrowed drag radials that had been sitting for quite some time and didn't work all that well. I had to be pretty easy leaving the...

    Slip/bang trans tuning.

    Hey guys, I have a 97 turbo gt with a 4t65e out of a 01 regal gs. I took a gamble on it as it came from the junk yard. It had a fair amount of clutch material in the pan but didn't look too bad. I don't know mileage due to the digital odometer. I put in a 300m input shaft, 2.93 7/8 chain...

    7/8" gear problems.

    I recently picked up a used 7/8" setup and the driven gear has damage where the bearing rides. Have any of you guys had a similar issue? Does this look fixable to you guys? I have sent a email to TEP about his thoughts and if he sells the gears separately. Waiting for a response back. His...

    Cam choice?

    Hey guys. I was originally going to be using my vs cam for my turbo build but my car was totalled before I installed the setup. I have not picked up a car to put the stuff on yet but I am trying to get everything ready to go when I do pick up a car. It will be a w body of some kind. I am not...

    R.I.P Gtx

    Friday night, around 2:00am, my girlfriend and I woke up suddenly to a huge crash in front of my house. Within a minute I made it out front to find this. The car and driver are gone. Hit and run. All that is left of his car was the front grill, bumper cover and lots of random broken pieces...

    l36 intake question.

    I plan on running a l36 upper and lower intake with a hv3 in my turbo build. My l67 throttle body fits the same three bolt pattern but does not look like it will seal correctly. I assume I will have to find a l36 throttle body to use. Are there any years that would be better to use then...

    Vs cam with turbo?

    Has anyone here run a vs cam with their turbo setup? I am going turbo pretty soon and would like to see what you guys think about it. I already have it in there and love the power band it has now with my current supercharged setup. I am running l76 springs with it right now. Any issues with...

    Finally broke into the 12's.

    This past Friday I went back to Orlando speed world. Last time I was there I ran my personal best of 13.00. I was both happy and a little frustrated at being so close to my goal and not getting it. This time I pulled some weight out to help me drop my e.t. I removed the passenger and rear...

    Funday Sunday.

    I made it out to Orlando Speed world Dragway today for the Funday Sunday races. The weather was about perfect at 70-75* and the track was super sticky. I'm still running full street weight and still running my 18's with street tires. The first race was against a 1997ish mustang. I though it...

    Mkyota1's 1999 gtx

    I've been here a while and never posted up my ride. I sort of wish I would have made a build thread earlier to kind of show the progress as it happened. Oh well LOL. I bought the car from the Tampa area. Started reading up on making it a little quicker and took care of all of the maintenance...
