it would be funny if your last name was "eye" because your name would be A BROWN EYE.

That would be awesome

Umm I think Ive seen it parked in university village before as well as at the redlight on longleaf. You were sitting in the turning lane revving it over and over...Like a douche bag would do. Pretty sure it was on a Saturday before a football game.

Nice car. Welcome to the forum.

I want something fast
02-09-2009, 08:42 AM
Is this the one with the cage from Fayette? If so welcome. You had the Steig ported blower on it right? I think I guessed it at around 461 RWHP.

02-09-2009, 09:21 AM
If its ported I bet its right at 500whp or very close to it. I want to get a piece;)

02-09-2009, 09:26 AM
HAH Yeah. I'm from Forsyth county. It is the caged one. No port though...Sorry guys. I'll go ahead and say its no joke for an unported upper pulley only car though. Nice C6 1.8t!

I want something fast
02-09-2009, 09:43 AM
Should be running some high 11's with the good driver mod. If the rear hops like a mofo good for some solid low 12's at around 117mph+-.

Thanks for the kind words on my car...maybe one of these day the POS will be back on the road running the way it should :(

Yeah. My best trap at ATL Dragway was 118.2mph. I don't wanna talk about ET's. It wont hook for shit there and its never been to a well-prepped track. It doesn't hop, it has aluminum and delrin bushings in the IRS. Theres no rubber left in any of the suspension. Just delrin and aluminum. 1.8t, yeah Forsyth county GA. I live in Chattahoochee River Club off of HWY 20. Where are you at?

02-09-2009, 01:39 PM
I am off of highway 9 in between exit 12 and 13 off of 400. Atl Dragway is a pile of shit btw. I went there once with the cam'ed setup and on my old tune(it was 10whp/7wtq weaker than the numbers in my sig) and my car could only muster 121mph. It was the middle of summer and the DA was ~3600+ ft. That track is at 1000' of elevation to begin with, so its never going to be that great unless you get some badass weather. I never plan on going back as I hate tech inspections and the stupid helmet rule. Give me Steele or MMP anyday over NHRA tracks.

Pic was taken in Dahlonega, GA. Not a fan of cooking shows. Fly4navy, I remember that thanks.

When did you see me, Pegasus? Yeah its got a simpson 5pt. If you saw me in the last 4 days its loud as hell and sounds like sh** cause my catback lost a fight with a manhole cover. :mad:

You ride that low or your exhaust hangs low enough to hit a man hole cover? More info on location as I'm going to stay far away from that manhole cover.

ABrown
02-10-2009, 12:47 PM
Yeah my mufflers have about 1.5" of ground clearance. It was in a neighborhood over by tigertown. I was turning around in the neighborhood to get back on 85 south. Manhole cover was sticking a little too far up and accordioned my muffler and bent/ripped the drivers side of my catback off of the x-pipe.

Damn dude, that sucks. Anything you can do to pull that exhaust up more than 1.5" from the ground?

ABrown
02-10-2009, 01:16 PM
Unfortunately no. The aftermarket x-pipes have a tendency to hang lower than stock so in turn they pull the catback down. It definitely does suck though. I'm having Triple G muffler off of Opelika Rd. fix it though...hopefully on Friday. I just hope they do it right. It sucks that I have to rape my wallet to get it right again though.

EDIT- Nice Stealth by the way. Those are really cool cars. One of my buddies from Atlanta has a VR-4. It's a blast on the highway with those super LLOOOONNNGGGG gears!

Thanks. Is your buddy in Atlanta a member of GA3S? If so, what's his SN? Just curious if I know him.

As for my 3/S, it is instantly not cool because of the vertical door hinges. :D But I like it. :steering: Thanks for the compliment dude.

I used them about 8 or 9 years ago and they seem to do decent work and they were super cheap back then.

Pegasus, thanks for the warning bro. Almo, I don't know if he's on there or not, it was that rare light blue color though, if that helps. Supposedly not many of those made. FST 05, thanks for chiming in. Thats reassuring. I just hope the quality of their work hasn't degraded since then.
