Wow MM driving a auto.........never thought I see it. Im sure its the basic reasons why all M6 guys make the change over. So what times are you leaving us T56 guys shooting for with the record?
Car looks great. Thought for sure ur car would be down most of this year too. After it sounded like ur total investment was in the old car was shot. Now ur pimping a new car,paint rims ect.......... WOW. Thats the turn around of the year for sure. Look out the though. Ur little women might want something around her finger with all those years invested (I know mine did ) . Cant wait to see ur progress during the year .

it made 995 sae w/ m6.. everything is the same other than the 4l80e

i ran a 9.92 in aug 04; m6 FI ls1 f body

still owe my mom 4k for what i borrowed to buy the ws6, guess i should have thanked her too. thanks mom! all of the other expenses were offset by my income since i bought the ws6. In addition i sold the stock engine/trans out of the ws6 for 4k and some other odds and ends...not to mention the credit card got pretty hot to round up final pieces to complete the car.

gf knows better than to ask for a ring

now it looks like it will sit for a bit more and cost a bit more to get the converter checked out/ rebuilt. hopefully that is the problem though.

o i just found out the problem with my transmission and or converter

it was the new turbo

turns out you are supposed to supply it with oil???? go figure.

i had a plug in the line when i was running the engine to keep it from leaking before i put the turbo stuff on... and never took it out.
