I took three runs, getting slower each time. (Heat soak?) My first and best run was a 14.041@99.44. My 60' times are what's killing me because I'm not an experienced drag racer. Bogging off the line...

Hmmm, I didn't know that about the LS6 intake. I had heard of an LSX intake, but also read that it wasn't worth the money.

OK, heads, cam, and headers at the same time. That'll have to be my...

Hey, PMDRACER, I was browsing the forums and went to your web page. That horsepower calculator is way cool. How accurate do you think it is? I don't have any 1/4 mile times for my new car, but I was...

The driver's side door somehow getting misaligned sounds scary. Considering it was a secondary collision, you wouldn't think it was too hard a hit. But in my youth, I hit a telephone pole with a '76...

While cruising the strip last night, I came across two heavily modded Mustangs that would simply blow the doors off my bone stock GTO. One was a Cobra and one was a GT. Both looked fast while mine...

That looks very sharp, but I don't want hood scoops bad enough to pay $1100.00.

It's not really a "show", it's more like an informal "gathering". Since my '04 GTO is the only one around these parts, it's fun to show it off. If the new GTOs were like Grand Ams or Grand Prixs (in...

Thanks for the link, Mr_GTO. It turns out that others have seen this problem, too. There are a few other "quirks" about the car that others are reporting. Good to know the things I've observed are...

Those are sharp, Howie. Did you have to do any fenderwell mods to make the 18" wheels fit? How 'bout the wider tires in back? My state has a law that the tires cannot extend a certain distance beyond...

No pics yet. I didn't have a camera. Duh. But this is a regular Saturday night thing, and me and the '65 Guy plan on showing our rides side by side. There will be plenty of pics soon.

YES, YES, YES, humbler, that's the pic I needed to see. (I have the Torrid Red.) And I agree the Cragar SS is now my first choice. That looks sweet.

Gratefully, I had no preconceived notions of what the new GTO "should" look like. I've never owned a classic car. Because of that, it is easier for me to accept the '04 GTO for what it seems... "a...

Ah, Nickv, I like both of those. The Malibu Chrome look like the classic Cragar SS wheels.

Whatever I end up getting, I think they need to be chrome. The car definitely needs to "shine" more.
