He never said anything to me about it. I hope the crack head wouldn't have pawned it. It would most likely end up as some sex device knowing this guy.....which, trust me, knowing danny, you wouldn't want it back.

Danny, did you get this man's camshaft or what? I've never seen it.

No Cam, I definately would have noticed a cam in the mail...

You sure you didn't put it in your camaro?

I just checked the tracking number to see who signed for it. Your name is Danny Obzidian, correct?

Jeez, I hope it was'nt used as a sex tool. The edges of the journals are sharp as hell. I can only imagine what kind of entry and exit wounds it would make.

So this car has headers, exhaust, intake and a tune? How long have the mods been on the car? What tune is on it?

most of the V's out there have trouble with the rear, and if they didnt yet just wait a little while but its no biggie... they'll replace it under warranty

Yup. Heck, my dealer even SUGGESTED that it be done on mine after I requested a dif fluid change.

Danny's been around quite awhile ... I'm sure his car is immaculate.

It makes me a little leary that with the mods on the car the dealer would still fix the problem......

What exhaust system is on the car and do the headers have cats or no cats?

Also, what is done to fix the rear? Is it a permanent fix or will the problem likely re-occur?

I had headers, hi/flo cats, and Corsa when they replaced my dif on warranty at their suggestion. Some dealers aren't so agreeable, but there are many who are.

I appologize, I missed your questions..

No accidents whatsoever.

2006 rear diff, it did not originally granade like some people have it had a whining noise. Since I received the new diff no problems whatsoever and I have most my miles on it.

Far as the parts and warranty I never had problems since everything was paid, installed (which dealers do not charge cheap) from the dealer.

As a matter of fact originally the car was SOLD to me new with either a Corsa or B & B, I chose B & B and its on my original invoice, along with the fg2 shocks...

It has high flow cats...

It has a Kar's rear brace, so the car doesn't hop...

I know people have blowers and nitrous and cams etc, I don't know if the car will hop or explode with that stuff on...maybe other guys here with that stuff know...

As is though it runs great...

Hope i covered it all?

Sure did....I am discussing things with my wife. There are a couple cars locally (I am in Kansas City) that I am considering, and 03 S-Type R for $22K, and a black 04 CTS, 25k miles for $26,500....but I would rather buy something thats been modded so I am more interested in your car. I will check with some shipping companies for some quotes and talk with the wife a little more about your car tonight, but after talking with her last night I am not sure if I can convince her to let me spend much, if any more than the $26,500.....she initially wanted the cap to be $25K.

Feel free to e-mail me at derek@shanerappraisals.com if you want to talk directly.

Oh yah, a few other things....who tuned the car or is it a handheld? and is it the sport or touring exhaust?

Thanks, Derek

The car has never had nitrous on it. Talks of a blower, talks of a cam, even talks of nitrous, we just never did anything like that. I think there where always plans of it on the drawing board.......just never got around to any of it.
