    Latest pics of my GT

    Re: Latest pics of my GT Did the SoGTs come with the same type of stock bed cover as SyTys? If so, what did you do with yours? I need one... :)

    700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...?

    Re: 700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...? FINAL UPDATE: I let the truck sit for a couple of days. I was busy with work, so I really didn't have a choice. Plus GM's been dragging their feet trying to find a replacement TV cable. Apparently the WD-40 I sprayed on the TV cable ratcheting...

    New Typhoon concept photoshop...

    Re: New Typhoon concept photoshop... Looks too much like a wagon IMO... Kill the rediculously-large wheels and shorten the rear and you're in business...

    What model is our TV cable? SU, BN, or RZ???

    I was asked this question when I tried to get a new TV cable from the dealer. Anyone have a clue? The guy said it was marked on the cable, but I didn't have mine to look at...

    700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...?

    Re: 700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...? UPDATE: Today, I performed the following... - Took off the transmission pan. No black crud, just the "typical" silver-ish stuff on the magnets. The transmission fluid STUNK though... No metal anywhere. - Took out the governor. It said in the...

    700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...?

    Re: 700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...? Holy crap that was informative!!! I will perform said maintenance to the gov and TV valve tomorrow. You assume correctly that I hadn't touched the TV cable, I've heard how bad it can screw things up if set incorrectly, but I will check its function...

    700R4 won't upshift, otherwise fine...?

    Alright, I'm about 2 seconds away from ripping out this stock tranny and throwing in a TH350, but I'd like to know if I'm barking up the wrong tree here... My 1-2 shift has been scary-hard when the tranny is cold (like part-throttle tire-chirping hard), but it only does it on the first 1-2...

    1270HP AWD Syclone TT????

    Re: 1270HP AWD Syclone TT???? Radials coupled with an insanely complex and expensive launch traction control system (like those used in Grand Prix cars) might make it close... ;) I'm looking into how those things work right now, it'd be a bitchin' mod for the street, not to mention how the...

    Arizona meeting

    Re: Arizona meeting Allow me to fix your crappy quote postings... :P I was born in Schnottsdale and haven't left, so 60-degrees is freezing to me... :D Once the weather agrees, I'll be there... Dan's just bitter that his truck's stock torque converter can't do anything with his 8-billion...

    Arizona meeting

    Re: Arizona meeting Ummmm...anyone take a gander at the forecast for tomorrow? I'm probably going to pass on the Pavilions, I don't take too kindly to frigid windy thunderstorms... It's unfortunate, but I wouldn't expect much of a turnout at all there.

    What happened to the Az crew?

    Re: What happened to the Az crew? I'm down for that. I'll blow the dust off my driver Sy and cruise it down to the Pavilions this Saturday. I'm pissed that I didn't catch the posts earlier, otherwise I would have been there last weekend... I'll get Nick to show up also. He doesn't know it...

    What happened to the Az crew?

    Re: What happened to the Az crew? SELL YOUR BIKE!!! or SELL YOUR TOYOTA P/U!!! Give me a reason to think that I didn't waste a year and a half of my life in your hot-ass garage wrenching and dodging the nosy fine-happy HOA bastards... :)

    Will the Nationals ever be moved to the west coast?

    Re: Will the Nationals ever be moved to the west coast? We've already been invited to be a part of the Buick West Coast Nats in Vegas. I was planning on talking to the guys in charge of the meet to see if I can get some more structure to the SyTy aspect of it. Until then, just make plans on...

    f.a.s.t wiring harness

    Re: f.a.s.t wiring harness If you know your way with the truck wire-wise then it's the best option. A lot of folks don't want to fuss with the rat's nest of wires in that area, but if you're at the point of using a stand-alone fuel management system, you're better off wiring everything else...

    Re: f.a.s.t wiring harness Get the stand alone kit. Although the plug-and-play kit seems simple and appealing, it looks messy under the hood IMO...
