LMFAO. You're a MF idiot. I can guarantee every state in the US has some douche **** that lifted some kind of muscle car. I've only lived in either California or Texas, and I have never seen a car like that. Only pictures.

Whom ever put it on must have had to, that lift is too high for the frame not to have been modded.

Donahue, your ex-car is in cali, damn this state sucks for mods/smog restrictions.

smog is easy in cali...just pay some cash and u pass with flying colors....and in cali u only go to one place to get your Driver license and register car and all that other Bs, not like in texas they have diff places for a Dl and to register your car...**** is confusing out in TX, and it seems like for car insurance in texas it has to be no less than a certain amount of coverage. out in cali i can choose the amount of coverage i want on my car, and it can be shity coverage but ill still have insurance, not like tx its cant be lower than what ever its at..i forgot but **** is confusing out here and slow

TX, in general, has way less restrictions and only a few cities have smog check. Not to mention that having the cat in other than stock location is not illegal!!

That is just one dumb, pointless emissions law. It mentions nothing about cat performace just location. Meaning you could not improve emissions if it meant moving the cat from its stock location.

not sure about the toilet part, the toilet is bigger in TX. One thing is for sure, it took me longer to drive out of TX than to get from TX to CA and TX does not have state tax!!! just a dumbass president on his way out of office in the next 10 days!

Damn I wish that shoe would have made it!!
the dude that threw it got arrested for not hiting the president not for trying.... he had two shots!!!

I moved here a year ago. Had to for family reasons, it sucks here.

The Z is great, its getting LT's heads fixed from exhaust manifold bolts broken in the heads.
3 on the drivers side and one on the pass. I'll have it running tomorrow, can't wait. The engine just won't quit, I ran 13.8 in SA before I left with stock tune.

Ya man. Thinking about it, I sold that car before I even got on LS1tech. Crazy how long its been. The guy I sold it to mentioned something about the manifold bolts in the heads right after I sold it to him. I knew nothing about it. Im surprised it hasnt been fixed in the last 4-5 yrs though.

And ya, I remember that car being a strong runner.
