Street Racing & Kill Stories - Puppy kicked 06? STS-V (vid)

He came up to me and wanted to run. This was a 75 roll (per STS owner). Good sport about everything though. Gave me props on my little 2v. Maybe it will motivate him to get some go fast parts soon!

lolll

Turbo vs a northstar with a little blower.. Not surprising

Good kill! Doesn anyone modify those STS-V's very heavily?

75mph roll with his piece of shit? What the fuck?

Not much made for the sts-v besides little things like an intake.. I don't even think anyone makes an exhaust honestly

75mph roll with his piece of shit? What the fuck?

I was confused myself, wasn't sure if I heard correctly haha

75mph roll with his piece of shit? What the fuck?

Btw.. I wouldn't call the sta-v a piece is shit by any means.. It's no muscle car but those thing are bad ass.. Sit in one then tell me it's a piece of shit.

They are nice looking cars, but thats about the end of it. They are just turds. Like punishment said the aftermarket is practically non existant. Itd be a cool LSA swap candidate though.

2nd that... LSA swap and rematch! I don't think the STS-V's have rear-end issues like first Gen CTS-V's?

now thats a good question...they are the same sigma platform,same hubs and brakes. ill look in to this, maybe another rearend option thats direct bolt in

I drove a xlr-v, small motor/blower combo, it was like stock ls6 fast, maybe a little faster. wasn't that impressed other then it looking nice as hell and felt like a luxury corvette.

sts-v came with the same diff and half shafts as the 06+ cts-v.. so essentailly its just the newer part number diff:gay:

Didn't wanna start a new thread, but I just ran a C6Z last night. Stock. From a 60 roll we were dead even and I pulled about a fender before we came up on traffic. Running him again Saturday. I need moar bewst and cooler weather! ;)

cooler weather will help him more than you. but good runs! all the old 2v rustangs around here are basic boltons and giant 315 or whatever tires in the back lol. looks nice but slow as hell. i don't think there is one here that has any serious mods

lol did u even get past 4k rpms???

I was thinking the same lol. I've already had it out on a cooler (65-70*) night and its a crazy difference. Same story when I had the Vortech on it.

I have, it's only nice by american standards.

Da fuck is that supposed to mean??

They dont have the issues because they are autos, there is substantially less shock on the drivetrain with the auto. Thats the reason modded fbodys with an auto and 10 bolt last way longer then a stock 6 speed and 10 bolt.

ah i know that, just wish it could have been some sort of up grade but were not that lucky:bs:

It means it's really not that nice compared to equivalent mercedes, bmw, lexus, etc.

If ur gonna bring euros into it... Put any one of em in the same price range up against that sts-v.. From a lower roll I'll bet that stsv gives em all hell.. That car is way too heavy to start from 80.. Specially with no mods

2006 M3 or M5?

Put a 06 m5 up against that sts-v stock for stock and I'll bet it's an interesting race. I'm no bench racer but my opinion is that it'll be real close
