Just lost the CATS, mufflers, spare tire and jack. With 1/3 tank of gas it weighed 3220 on the scales at work.

Anyone who has a badass turbo'd T/A parked next to his BMW in the driveway can't be all bad. LOL.

?My '93 is down to 3055. Going to be replacing the stock seats with some cheap summit racing seats for trips to the track. With the motor, each one of those stock seats weight 42.5lbs. The ones from Summit are 15lbs.

It took me 5 hours to change plugs on the damn thing. Three weeks to pull the tranny, swap converter, pull the motor apart to put the new cam and opti in and plum the nitrous after working 10 to 12 hours a day. I was seconds from starting to drink again after five years. I know long tubes would be a great upgrade but truthfully I don't think my heart is in it. I bought the car with 50,000 miles cause I wanted a Lt1 Corvette for alot of years. Time to drive it and quit messing with it. I know there are a ton of cars that can pound it but that what my 56 Chevy is for. Other than driving it 260 miles home when I bought it, the farthest I've driven it is 12 miles to work.

Good kill OP, and clean car... still dont see a reason why using N2O on a wimpy 535i, should have put busses on him N/A... And he should know better than picking a fight with a vette

They are a bit overpriced, but I still think they are worth it. I think a brand new one well optioned lands about high 30's. I'd rather get a cpo though as they are much cheaper with a longer BMW warranty.
, I've been driving the **** out of te t/a lately. Hugger can a attest to that one

Nice, if she keeps it stock I'd think you could pull away from her without the shot. But you might want to let her win to reap the reward later.

Good kill! LT1 Vettes suprise alot of people, especially with a few well placed mods.
I find I've been messing with my cars nonstop for a while now and I'm the same way. Just looking to get them sorted out and drive them for a while before jumping back in to new mods.
You have issues.
