    How bad were the compression numbers? Did you get ripped off by the guy? It sucks you're in that position. Would you really just move on to a different platform?

    I still say BMW simply because of the ability to run the absolute dog shit out of them with just bolt ons. For example my M6 with just intakes, downpipes and a Stage 2 tune puts down around 700 wheel horsepower (granted im V8 twin turbo) Only major thing I needed to do? Upgrade my rod bearings...

    How far from the border are you? What if you buy it in the US and then just pick it up instead of having it shipped to you directly?

    I say get a BMW. An older 3 series or 5 series and race that. You'll go RWD but spare engines can be had for cheap plus they'll handle well. By older I mean you can get a 2012-2016 340i for less than 10k and its an inline 6 turbo. Do the crank hub upgrade and you'll be good to go. It sucks you...

    I am not 100 percent positive but in the future you might be able to use newer Yukon/Suburban air ride shocks in the rear. Theyre heavier duty due to the increased size of the SUVs

    Why not do the PPV swap? He would never get pulled over and people would move out of his way on the roads.

    It needs a Pro Guard and some police package wheels

    You'll just need to buy an MPVI3 device and a few credits. You might need 2 or 3 credits to unlock everything on the Tahoe. The minimum is 2 but sometimes you also have to unlock the Fuel Pump Control Module/Chassis Control Module. The software VCM Editor is free and so is VCI Scanner. Make...

    You can disable the DoD system through the computer and ideally install non DoD lifters. However just turning the system off in the ECU drops the failure percentage by at least 80 to 90 percent. I disabled mine with just the computer and never had any problems. The issue comes down to when the...

    Did you end up buying the Tahoe? I highly recommend getting HPTuners right away and disabling DoD and tuning the 6L80. There are a lot of small improvements that can be had by just doing those. I used software called BC Trans to adjust the tables for mine. Pretty easy to use. I can also email...

    Another Speed I want to buy

    I had put a gen 2 in it originally. I dont remember the odometer reading. Like I said I sold it about 3 to 4 years ago. I think it was around 160k? Maybe 170k. Whoever bought it just dogged the crap out of it and treated it like crap. I had that car for a few years. Daily driven. I took it...

    Another Speed I want to buy

    I sold the car with the access port. ALL the mods minus the painted valve cover and intake manifold were done by me. The clutch however may have been replaced. I did put a single mass lightweight flywheel and ACT clutch in it originally. The guy local to me who got it from the Navy kid had been...

    Another Speed I want to buy

    The AC and heat work well because I had to replace the compressor, expansion valve, and the condenser due to compressor failure. This was for sale near me a few months ago. I had debated buying it back from the dude who owned it then but decided not to as I had my fun with it and I'm more...

    Another Speed I want to buy

    This is my old Mazdaspeed 3. I live in Charleston SC and sold it a few years ago. The tuning was done by Freektune when I owned it so unless whoever purchased it from me decided to get it re tuned for no reason then maybe PD did it? Also the intake manifold the guy has is probably the spare...

    I have a super clean 2011 Suburban 1500 LTZ for sale. You'd have to come to South Carolina though. It only has 130k miles on it but it's fully loaded with heated/vented seats, DVD player/navigation, leather interior. Also has tow package. Id even throw in a free tune for it to disable DoD and to...

    Your civic with the hub failure isnt that much different than Miata hub failures. You're pushing the suspension so hard with G forces it wasn't meant to have lol. Im glad you're ok and didn't total the car. I second switching platforms. What will you do if the big boy hub upgrade doesnt work or...
