| Notes: |
Ex Toronto highway patrol vehicle. Actually had a '95 until I killed a 800 pound moose a few years back. The lord gave me the grace of being in a car that saved me, so who am I to argue when it came to buying my next car. |

Maintenance & Modification Logs

Picked up a '04 CV PI engine complete less alternater and a/c compressor. The rings on my engine are shot and the car just won't pass the local emmisions test so while I wait for the funds to buy my intake manifold i'll throw this engine in. Will report once the job is done. | 400.00 | | 04/02/09 | Repair | 361 | First drive of the year
Had a insane vibration in the steering, thankfully it's a bent rim and not front end issues. While at the shop the cable from the battery to the starter broke off, had another one at home but no means of getting it so I rented a car for the afternoon.
Ordered my forged pistons (Kieth Black) today as well, should be getting ready for the rebuild in the next few weeks. Hopefully June will see the introduction of a M112 on top of my motor..... just in time for my bday! | 0.00 | | 04/24/08 | Modification | 342000 | Serious sound system upgrade
Ok , so.... from the top.
Pioneer DEH-P7600MP media deck up front going through a Soundstream Digi-Q eq/xover network. Then to a Pheonix gold base cube. From there to 4 x Audiobahn A8000T (2 for subs, each bridged and 2 for rear 6x9s, yeah it's overkill). Also 1 x Audiobahn A4004 for the front separates.
Wiring is 0 gauge to the blocks, then 4 gauge to the amps, 2 x 1 Farad Rockford fosgate power caps. Just enough to keep things from getting dismal under load. Fronts are 5x7 Audiobahns with a Pheonix gold tweeter mounted in the top of the door panel, Rears are 6x9 Audiobahn. Subs are Audiobahn Eternal 10's in sealed boxes, 1.4 cubic feet. Pics coming soon | 1,000.00 | | 04/21/08 | Modification | 342000 | Push button ignition/starting
Replaced the keyed ignition with one SPST for the ignition on/off and one momentary to replace the starter. I did this because my steering columb has now needed to be redone twice because of the key lock. I really wasn't interested in replacing it for a 3rd time so this was a sweet/easy/cheap fix. For those saying "but then it's really easy to steal right?" there is a alarm with starter kill option on a relay so no, people can't just open the door and drive it away. | 25.00 | | 04/20/08 | Modification | 342000 | Project Eaton
This is the first log i'm doing with regards to the replacement of my stock intake setup with that of a Eaton M112 Supercharger. Also joining the charger will be a 11" conical performance filter, 90 MM MAF, intake tube and throttle body off of a 04 Cobra SVT. Other upgrades in conjuction with this will be 39lb fuel injectors, Steeda underdrive pulleys, AC delete pulley, EV1 to EV6 adators. Also have a aftermarket heat exchanger to handle the core air temps. | 1,200.00 | | 04/01/08 | Modification | 340500 | Rims Rims Rims!
20" Baccarat Sync B, Black base, black lip with chrome center diamond shape in each spoke. Rubber is Sumitomo HTRZ II 245/35/20's. Nitrogen filled, sick traction. Nuff said. | 2,600.00 | | 11/01/07 | Modification | 340000 | First log entry of what's hiding
HID's up front for the low beams, 10K (deep blue). 48 total LEDS hiding on the front and rear of the car. Completely stealthy look. I actually told the local law enforcement about the car for when I do car shows etc. Colorstorm LED lighting undercar system. Mostly Audiobahn sound system including 2 eternal's mounted in the rear quarter panels, leaving me with my entire trunk to play with.
As far as the emergency lighting well.... it's extensive and i'll add a entry at a later date maybe with vids.
Brakes have been upped to xdrilled/slotted rotors with carbon fiber pads.
Currently running Michlin Pilot tires, moving up to perf tires in the spring on hopefully a new set of 20's. | 0.00 | | 11/01/07 | Modification | 340000 | Other stuff of interest to know....
Relocated battery to the trunk with 0 gauge wire kit.
Heated up the front turn signals and pulled them apart, removed the yellow reflector and re-assembled them and finally tinted them. I think they look great. Have LED turn signals so it's still visible during the daytime.
The entire car has had all stock bulbs replaced with LEDS. Was a kinda expensive mod (around $300) but well worth it. I mean everything, right down to the map lights.
Rear tail assembly's were tinted, but not very much. Just enough to have it match the car instead of the depth of the front turn signals.
I intentionally painted over the chrome bumper surround as I thought they made the car look too "old man" and not enough attitude. That combined with the removed side bumpers is something i'm really happy with. | 0.00 | | 06/06/06 | Modification | 320000 | Brake time
Upgraded stock setup to a full Xdrill/slotted rotor kit and carbon metallic pads. Seriously better braking although a little less pedal feel which i'm getting used to. | 400.00 | | Total | 5,625.00 |
