Its official... GOOF has gone BALLER on us

I'm working on some NA mods at the moment and hope to be running again by the end of the summer. It won't be the power I once had, but it will hopefully run for a while longer this time.

Just cosmetic stuff for this year. Had my V-1 installed [saved me from 4 cops in the first week], attempted to get my interior gauges switched from amber to blue but the installer realized he didn't have the proper tools to complete the job so now I have a brand new gauge cluster [but still glows amber].
Last thing I wanted done was to get some of that 3M/Dynoc wrap on the center panel and the door sills. Just waiting on them to get a new shipment of it.

Most recent, 3.7 gears and Nismo LSD. Oil cooler coming this weekend. Definitely plan upgraded suspension bushings, adjustable camber arms and more. Slowly working on the track set up.

Plan to one of these days, just looking at getting my apartment furnished when I get back and then 9 months later getting a real job. Then let the modding begin, most likely will be doing all suspension mods and other **** for getting into AutoX/Tracking the Z

This year already: solid diff bushings, fake rims, powergrid endlinks, ARP wheel studs,

To do next week: 4.08 FD, Carbonetics Carbon LSD, GTM Competition Engine Oil Cooler, Waiting on KW V3 to be rebuilt (its taken over a month already)

To do later this year: HFC + Tune, uncomfortable light weight seats

eventually: gut the car... 3800lbs = not fun

Goof - Did you seriously get a Hummer?! What kind of crack are you selling? I'm in the wrong business!

Cass007 - Since when did you become a moderator?! Man I tried to become one for years but they kept on rejecting my application!

Rest - if you aren't from Mid-A and haz a problem with this thread, time to GTFO (maybe this is why they rejected my moderator application).

It was awesome! I had such a good time learning the car more. My AutoX experience helped a lot up to a certain point. Hal was my instructor. I plan on going in Oct as well.

No mods for me. Ever since I got my 08, I haven't touched it because I'm saving for the GT-R.

Modding my car now would be like putting new appliances in my condo knowing that I'm going to move to a better house in a year. In other words, a waste.
