My '05 V - Summer mode engaged



Re: My '05 V

it is slow.

she still sits in the baby carrier that clips into the seat base for the car. having a forward facing baby seat now would be useless.
 
Re: My '05 V

you could attempt containing all your thoughts into one post.

and it will never be boosted.
 


Re: My '05 V

future plans with no date, that will potentially not happen until i get another car to DD:

- full borla catback
- long tube headers (kooks, probably)
- lower it (H&R springs, probably)
- summer wheels of some form
- heads/cam (literally won't happen until i don't need to drive it everyday...and i'll be doing a big rumbly cam)
- LS9 clutch and single mass flywheel

for at least this year i plan on doing nothing, but just driving it and getting used to it as a car. the only thing i'll change before next year is putting winter tires on the stock wheels and looking around for some nicer wheels to run in the spring/summer/fall so i don't have to swap tires on the stock wheels all the time.

i already said it...
 
I don't want to read, I want to be spoodfed.

Does this have an ipod hookup?

Bose stereo?

navigation?

What color is the interior?

how many miles do you plan to own it?

Will you use plastidip on anything?

the headlights needs to get refinished and i need to deal with some plasti-dip. there will be no dip on this car.
 


Re: My '05 V

the grills on the front of the car are plasti-dipped.

i am going to take them out and have them legitimately powdercoated instead. i like them being black, though.

That's a good list.

Both are easy fixes. Good idea to get rid that plasti-dip.
 


Re: My '05 V

american racing wants you to bring your car to their shop so they can make them on the car, so i can't do that. and stainless works doesn't make them for the V1.

it seems like there is no legitimate option for "the best" set of headers...
