New car...

[GTSLOW]

Traded in the Rubicon for a new ride.... 2005 GTO Cyclone Grey Metalic w/ M6.

Planning on staying stock for a while except for a tune, 160 thermo, and axle back or muffler deletes. Oh and I have to get that dam front plate mount off.

It's "Cyclone Grey Metallic". BTW if you want "muffler deletes" talk to me. I have "muffler deletes" on my car, and well, the whole "loud car" thing is getting old, and I wouldn't mind trading mine off for some stock quiet mufflers. The nice thing is that it LITERALLY takes 5 minutes to pull the mufflers off of the back of the car. they bolt onto the rest of the piping right in front of the mufflers.

[SSLEVO]

They are nice cars, i considered one but wanted something a litte more setup for the track.

[Karps TA]

[GinoRin]

LOVE the color! You'll be happy with that car, put a H/C/I on it and have some fun!

Hopefully in a year or two it will see some track day events at RA. Definately wont see a drag strip.

I love this thing compared to my 02 T/A. It's also surprisingly easy to get the little one in and out.

[Prince Valiant]

Nice!

Order up a Holden grille/bumper cover and tail panel bits and call it an Aussie car.

$$$$$

otherwise I would have done it years ago

[lordairgtar]

Should be some used stuff now.

might not be a bad idea, the value of the us dollar crashed against the oz dollar compared to '05 to '08, but it went back up, and the us dollar has alot more value there again.

Yes was cool meeting up with some new faces.


Oh and thanks for the compliments everyone. Might be doing an axle back exhaust swap with Dani soon.

Yeah, thats what i mean, i don't drag race either. You better get some C5 or larger brakes if you want to run at RA. Not trying to be an ass but they are kind of heavy and don't have the best brakes.

[SmokinRAM114]

damn another new car LOL you buy something new every other year it seems LMAO I also like that color, it makes it look like a totally different car

[wrath]

Another person trading in their wheeling tendencies for a car? Can certainly tell there's no wheeling here.

I've had my time at RA :D Ran hawk blues on my S10 which worked great. Also the GTO has C5 Z06 compareable brakes I hear just need good pads and fresh fluid.

Note the well dusted front wheels. That was only a few sessions.

I know. I tried, unless you know someone with private property tickets can be a mofo. Plus I hate mud :goof

[WilliamZ]

I like it!

[BigSnailBuick]

Congrats :) Its always fun to pick a new ride after a while. And what a deal...I wish the first post I got when I got a new ride was someone wanting to trade me aftermarket for my stock stuff :thumbsup

bad brakes?

13" fronts, same calipers as the C5 Z06, 12" vented rears. Honestly that's the first time I've heard anyone say that one has bad brakes.
