Default Im a phoenix newcomer...

Hello all,

the name is matt and I moved from prescott to tempe, I have been in Arizona my whole life, and am going to ASU right now. I havnt run my car in a while due to a bad clutch, but I just installed my ls7 this weekend and need someone to play with at the track, and maybe . I know all of phoenix well, because my dad lives in the cave creek area. I also was curious if there is any good tuners in the area? I just did a pcm4less tune to get by for a while. So if you see a navy/metalic blue Z28 with black z06 wheels thats me. peace out.

Wow, ill get my lazy *** over to the west side, I know the town pretty good over there. So i am guessing you guys are speedworld people then, or do you guys venture out to Firebird? I am hoping to hit 11's when I get skinnies, my intake on, a good tune, and remove the sway bar. I ran my 12.4 with higher temp's outside.

Also who is nicD? Is he on this board with that name? Ill do a search.

The FRC? Maybe sometime all you guys can come to tempe, because there is a whole bunch of 5.0 owners that hang out at a sonic here. I think they **** themselves whenever I roll by there on a satarday night with my cut out open . you guys need to keep me posted on when your going to speedworld next time.

You know, I really havnt had any problems with my poly urethane. The most sqeaking or vibe I get out of anything is my poly tranny mount,which is pretty normal.

Who has the fastest N/A LSx car around the metro area? I wont have my skinnies by dec. 2nd but I want to run it anyways with my new clutch and intake.

Are you guys refering to me as the FRC because I have vette wheels or what lol? Wheels were on there when I bought it, and i dont spend money on parts that dont make me go fast. Especially with my college packetbook .

I am going to be doing the ls1 to ls6 pcv mod this weekend when I do my intake swap, anyone ever done this before?
