Sometimes it will try to grind, sometimes pop out, or might stay if you hold it. It seems like something was too tight internally, but seems to be getting easier, other than the 5th issue. Hopefully it's not an internal problem.

The look on Danew's face when the engine first fired up was "priceless"!! Now we just need to sort the trans, so he can wash that dirty piece of **** and start breaking it in.

A few have recently asked about tunes locally. Well, I'm the "excellent" tuner that Joe Schulte mentioned. As for the "old" guy others mentioned, I have no idea of who he is, but have heard that he is good, too.

Some of you have been wanting a tune for your LSJ, but for some time the beta versions had a bug for scanning the LSJs. Can't tune that way! Because of file format changes, reverting to the public release would have created a lot of file compatibility issues and a lot of work redoing files.

Good news is that HPTuners has fixed the bug with a new compile and I've confirmed that it's working fine now.

Then, as soon as that got solved, my daughter's computer took a dump and I loaned her my laptop for end of semester work. Finally got that back.

PM me or call me at 757-647-0360 and get your tune!
I'll be ready to tune once my clutch is broke in. Still ~275 miles to go.

Cole, that was my car. You should have left a note or something. I just got her back running on Sunday last week.

5th on Danew's car is just fine. It's just that his right arm is too short! Too much ************.

Seriously, apparently when the trans was assembled for the LSD a sector gear on the internal shift mechanism must be off a tooth. It should be fixed while he's out playing war over the next few weeks.

Any plans to meet tonight? Connor or Warren... how about a cookout tomorrow? Joe #2's idea of Langley Wed. is good.

Warren is in Pittsburgh, and I will be finishing the moldings in my baby room. If it gets completed tonight, a bbq might be doable at my house Sunday.

Bad news. No bbq at my house. Crown molding will not be finished tonight. Why not hold the bbq at Joe's?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkaahviLCMk
my one run they show wasnt to good. That civic almost hit my car and my clutch was slipping bad. It doesnt anymore but the gmp doesnt like getting to hot and since i kept winning i had to keep running. Funny how a guy will go through a set of 600 dollar tires and a clutch to win some money and a plaque oh well

Don't forget that Warren's birthday is tomorrow.

Maybe we can celebrate by letting Kenny race Warren's car tomorrow.
