Guess I might be going to the track tomorrow, I'll keep ya all updated. Problem is we still have no cable, so I'm still running on this crap tune. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

1st Run- 12.495 @ 110.214, 1.942 60'

2nd Run- 12.108 @ 112.622, 1.793 60'

3rd Run- 12.067 @ 113.904, 1.831 60'

First run was right when I got there, so it was heat soaked and bogged bad. Second run we let it have some time to cool off and stalled it to 1900 not to bog. Third run we did a lot of cool down, ran the heat/used a wire to have the fans on. It should have been an 11 second run, but we were pro treed so that messed me up and I didn't get to stall it so I bogged off the line. Oh well, next time 11's are mine //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. It was alittle hot out as well and the DA was 2890 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I took off the spoiler, I'm going for more of a classy look. I'm debadging the car since I believe it's a Holden and not a Pontiac GTO (Holden make this car anyways). I just plugged the holes from the spoiler for now, I will have them shaved and it repainted when I get my Holden bumper.

The cars come with a 6 speed. Though this is my everyday driver, so I didn't want a M6. I did want 19" wheels, but that would have given me less sidewall and that isn't good for drag racing. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Love that color, man. My dad has a 65 GTO Hurst Edition with a 421 in it. I'll post some pics later.

Here are a few newer pics. I'm debadging the car. I took off the "GTO 6.0" emblems off the fenders and replaced them with the Monaro side markers. Then I took off the lower bumper insert that said "GTO" on it and replaced with the Monaro rear bumper insert. I guess I'm making a GTO/Monaro hybrid thingy.

All I know is I don't want any GTO or pontiac emblems on the outside of the car. All I got left to do is have some custom grills made, have the pontiac logos on the trunk/front bumper shaved along with the holes from the spoiler. Then have the lower bumper insert painted along with whatever else I shaved off with it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

very nice car man

 

[Alpine CDA-9815 10+ year member]

Here is a quick walk around the car and idle/small rev vid. First rev was up to 3500RPM's, second was up to 2500. I didn't want to get killed by my neighbors so I kept the revs down //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif. Maybe I'll make a good reving vid later //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. As you can tell it idles nicely, still having alittle trouble with start up (**** HP Tuners!). The vid does not do it justice though, enjoy.

It's Impulse Blue Metallic, RPO 24U... that's all I know. Dunno if that helps.
