Oh my day is getting better and better. When i broke the radiator exiting the parking lot at a local Wendys i called the store to get in touch with the district manager. She just got in touch with me and took a report down and fowarded it to her office. Looks like they will be covering the cost of the damage it did and maybe a little more.

Dude wtf does that have to do with anything. We where simply talking about how most cant afford to dump 1k into axles and how its nice to be older cause your slightly more established.

I know lots of cars that can wipe the floor with me some girls even drive. How funy is that.

And back in the day i did fast food as a GM and made 60k, how funny is that.

this is probably one of the dumbest comments i've seen in a while. everybody knows somebody that will flat out murder someone else's car.

i have a friend with a 2002 camaro z28 with an ls3 block, ls6 heads, ls7 cam, sts turbo kit with upgraded 76mm turbo making no less than 800whp at 15 psi, that will **** on your buddy's evo.

see how stupid that sounds? (now, my friend really does have this car, with those exact mods)

Well Maybe i can get this back on track.

ZZP Stage 3 Axles along with the new IC pump will be here by Wed at 4, which means the car should be back on the road thursday night or friday. If this is the case the car will make it back to the track on Sunday.

Definately turning that 1st gear max boost reduce down to what it was before and will try and work it back up.

Well it dont matter at this point, car broke again today. Looks like the trans and maybe the clutch went as well.

Cant press the clutch down its super stiff right now. Car is in neutral but will jerk forward when i try and start it. Was driving on the turnpike and dropped to 3rd to pass someone, shifted from 3 to 4 and it car started grinding and shaking sounds like i broke a trans.

So its at the shop again and needs some parts

Waiting to hear back from zzp so i can place a order for a new trans on monday and maybe a new clutch.

Was looking at the stage 2 trans from them but need to talk to them first.

Sorry to hear about your luck. My question wasn't to start an argument... simply just curiosity because I wish I could do what you're doing. I'm rooting for you because I want to know what you will run... we all do. Truth is that most of us here don't have the money or experience like ULWiz. Just stating facts.

Almost forgot to post how shitty it ran last time at the track. My iat2 temps have been horrible since my dual pass was put in. Not sure if the cores are switched or bad. Its not the ic pump cause previous one cruised at the same temp but just in case i replaced it anyways. Car would cruise at 100-118 iat2 temps so i could only imagine what it was at going down the track, unfortunately i forgot my power cord so could not monitor it. Car sat for an hour after each run.

Anyways made three passes and was slower across the board except out of the hole. Did pull 1.93 60ft on the slicks but car would not trap above 101. Made three passes at 100,100,101. Was 4 mpg slower in the 1/8 and 6 mph slowet at the 1/4 mile. Would assume the car was pulling timing. Ran 105.69 with a slipping clutch that was on its last leg before the exedy was put in.

Car leaves like a dream out of the hole though, really nice making some passes on slicks.
Its gonna be a week for sure until its ready for the road and if the new exedy went along with the trans its gonna be a good 3k in miles before the gas peddle touches the ground.

Think i am going to stick with my original gut and get the 4.45 stage 2 trans from zzp.

May sorry to hear about your unfortunate luck at the track. I know it sucks, but its nice to see someone like yourself who understands making power cost money adn **** is gonna break. i hate it when some of these guys make 400 WHP and **** breaks, then they whine about it like girls. ITS GONNA HAPPEN.

but im not sure you broke the trans, but i wasnt there. if you cant depress the clutch the trans is connected to the motor. if the car jerks forward when you try to start it that means its still engages. have you ttried putting the shifter in neutral and starting it? or throwing the front end of stands and seeing if it will start?
