SOLD pending check arrival. Don't know if I feel :D or even more :frown: (with tears gushing from my eyes). That car was like a 5th child of mine. But I'm sure it will enjoy it's new home. Derrick

Well, I think it's about time to sell the vette as there isn't much more that can be done to it. I know this isn't exactly TR related, but maybe someone else is thinking of doing the same as me and going from the TR crowd to the vette crowd. It took a lot to get this car faster than my GN was...

There are 2 on island that I have heard of. But there are a bunch of TR's. WAY more than I had ever seen back in new england (probably just more per square mile here). I would post this question in the Hawaii section of the board and you'll probably get a lot more info on the GNX's out here...

Geez, Anyone using this site anymore in Hawaii? No posts recently. Well, I was very surprised to see so many TR's at the Walmart cruise tonight. I didn't bring the vette since I'm in the process of getting her ready for the build the track show next weekend. But did cruise through on the Big...

It sounds like fun, but I have too much respect for the GN. And since I miss my GN, I miss the TR crowd. Plus, I just don't all out steet race. I always get these stupid punk a$$ kids talking smack at the cruise-in's about street racing, and I remember how generation "Y" just doesn't get...

Disregard.... I finally got in. I had to use my non-hotmail address.... Derrick

Thanks. I have "comments" on the pics I uploaded and the views are going up, but I can't read the comments or anything..... Kind of frustrating. I'm going to try and register with another e-mail address and see if it will work (vice my hotmail address). Derrick

Well, I tried registering for the build a track event... We'll see if my car is "worthy". Unfortunately, I can't tell if my photos uploaded correctly. And i tried registering for the forum but haven't received the damn e-mail acknowledgment yet... I wonder if the webite is working correctly...

I just got back... It was the first time I went to the cruise there. Probably won't go again. Really not the best vennue. I'll take either the bike or car to Bob's Big Boy next week. Then probably won't go again until either the Walmart cruise or next Home Depot one.. I'm a little...

Anyone going to the Cruise in at SecureStore in Kapolie tomorrow (Saturday)??? I'm think of taking the vette out there tomorrow. Then Bob's Big Boy next Saturday will be either the vette or the Big Dog chopper since big boy is right down the street. Derrick

Man, that sucks. I wanted to go, but I was working swing shift and also finishing up a rebuild. But both of those items are done (with the car now running the way it always should have been). I try to go to all the ones I can except the cruises on the north shore. Derrick

Why not get together at one of the cruise in's??? I VERY occasionally see a GN at the cruise in's, but never as many as I think should be there... I do still like to drool over the TR's. I'm in NY right now, and won't be back until 4/26, but I would love to see you guys again. And if anyone...

So, is anyone going to the NEX car show this Sunday (May 6th)? I haven't seen a TR in any cruise in's or shows in a long, LONG time. The vette will be there. I got a lot of good response at the cruise in at Home Depot last Saturday with the twin turbos. Derrick

Thanks guys. Geez, I almost forgot the TR traditions of birthday greetings... The Vette's doing pretty good. I just got my pass for the NEX car show. Is anyone else going? If you go, stop by and say hi. I'll have the onlt twin turbo red Z06 vette. And my turbos are right out and say...

Cuise Nights Still lurking over here... :) The following is an e-mail I got from my Vette club. Apparently there are cruise nights every 1st and 2nd Saturdays of the month now. I'm goin gto try and start going to them again now that I transferred to a job that will give me a few hours off...

The LS6 shortblock is sitting in the crate the C5R block came in to be saved with the car until eternity... The heads and intake were sold to help offset some of the cost of the C5R. And some of the misc. components (front cover, freeze plugs, etc.) made their way onto the new motor. I know...

Hey guys. I still lurk around here just because the TR community is the best community I've ever been around. Well, I finally got the rest of my twin turbo system in about a week ago and got the car going today. Just some shakedown 7 psi runs around salt lake and it's pretty impressive. Now...

I've used Snyder's many times and NOT impressed. VERY slow. Actually unbelievably slow. They'll promise you 2 weeks, expect 3-4 months. This has happened the 3 times I had my GN block honed/line bored/cleaned up. And don't even get me going on my 427 C5R block for the Corvette. After 3.5...

Thank you guys. Great help.

Can anyone tell me which leads are which on the MAP sensor? I'm pretty confident the middle lead is the signal lead, but which is the ground and which is the +5V? I'm trying to install a 3 bar MAP on my car, and I need to know which lead is which. Thank you, Derrick
