I might just tackle it myself, but I hate working on this car now so I am not looking forward to that

My new clutch finally came, I wanted a 3" exhaust and a 1piece drive shaft....and I need a new tranny because my 5th gear synchro is shot. But I took a promotion at work so I have to move so I am trying to refrain from car parts until we are in a new house.



But I impulse bought a nitrous kit with all of the bells and whistles WTF do I need a nitrous kit for what an idiot. I also bought a Y pipe for my wife's car I am a car parts junkie

She is not a fan of Nitrous, I had another car with Nitrous and she didn't like riding in it if I had the bottle in it. She saw a movie where a car with Nitrous got rear ended and exploded

Not much to update, it's parked for winter I did get the wing moulded in. The 3" exhaust was wayyyy to loud so I went back to the 2.5" if the clutch is cold it slips a bit in 4th a 5500rpm but a good warm up it seems to grip ok. I blew one of the cosworth CF end caps off the intake so I have billet ones now.

Wing moulded



After the CF end cap blew, and took out the oil filler cap.



I also got rid of my Titan for a GMC Sierra 6.2L I put a leveling kit 2.75" and 1" rear kit, I got a tune and a few other things. I have had 5 titans over the last 8 years so it was just time for a change the Titans haven't changed so even getting a new one just felt like the same old truck.






As it sits today














I have turned my focus to my latest ride an X5 35d we love it so far, since the pictures I have got it Tuned by the ECUProgrammer in Calgary, black BMW Performance grills, the tail lights lightly tinted, fender flares and it goes for H&R springs on Monday.The torque of the I6 3.0L twin turbo diesel if awesome it moves for an SUV. After the tune it's about 315hp and 500ftlbs.

No I keep saying I am going to but it never happens. I had a good race against a 505whp G35 I wish I had it on video.
