no, you should do your homework. the ls7 does not have cylinder deactivation.


nauman, you're not considering parting out the CL?

It sure was a serious look, but only for a couple of seconds.

man I have stories to tell when it comes to tickets.

The most scary one for me was when I got the damn 3" exhaust on the CL. This is the day before we went to the Austin meet.

I cant remember exactly where I was heading, prolly going to pick up that radar from David for the next day. But I get on the toll way and floor it all the way, trying to see how much top end i gained. I fly by a couple of cars. I think by the time I was doing about 140, I threw it in neutral and let it slow down on its own. a few seconds later, I see a fucking Tahoe with cop lights on my tail and I look at the speedometer and i'm still doing 110. Right then and there and I knew I was going to jail (never been to one). So I pull over to the right. He gets on the speaker and tells me to shut the car off. I do that. Then he tells me to put the keys on the roof, I do that. Then he tells me to get out of the car and stand behind it and now Im thinking i'm really fucked, so I do that too, and bring out my license and insurance. Then he comes out of his truck, which by the way, had no marking on it what so ever that could indicate he was a police officer. He walks up to me and ask me whats the special occasion and my answer was "just being stupid" and he takes my license and insurance and walks back to his truck gets on teh computer, while i'm still standing outside, behind my car.

He stays in there for like 5 minutes and I'm like WTF's going on. Then, another cop pulls up behind him, which makes me even more nervous. Now the only thing I'm waiting for is the tow truck to pull up, then i'd know for sure i'm going to jail. and I start thinking about who i'm gonna call to bail me out.

The second cop walks up, looks at me and starts talking to the first cop. Then a thrid cop pulls over behind them. Now I'm shaking, seriously. Just waiting for a tow truck to confirm my predictions.
The third cop also walks up and starts talking to the first two. Then about 5 minutes later. They walk up to me and ask me a few questions, cant remember what exactly. But after that, the first cop, who actually was a supervisor cop, tells me that he would take me to jail, but I have been very cooperative and straight up with him. so he's gonna let me go with a ticket for speeding for 110, he said he knows i was going way faster than that, but he wrote me up for 110 because thats how fast he had to go to catch up with me. Second violation was for no turn signal when changing lanes and tells me to slow the fuck down. and I must have said the word "thank you" like 30 times with in 10 secs to him. After that, i just went about my business and slowed the fuck down for real.

Thats like when I got pulled over for racing without a license. The first cop pulled us over, then three more showed up. My friend overheard one of the cops say "I can take two of them". Luckily my friends girlfriend was in his car and the cop had her drive me home.

Scary night.

Great story Nspec

I've been in that boat, was on my motorcycle (03' Kawasaki Z1000) getting on the freeway, punched it and hit 145+ before I left the onramp, I took off and got stuck in traffic about 10 miles later. As I'm sitting in the HOV lane waiting for traffic to start going again I notice a black tahoe with it's lights on pulling up behind me. I pulled over, shut it off and got off the bike (also thinking I was about to go to jail). The cop and his partner got out and started asking questions about the bike and what kind it was, they told me I passed them as I got on the freeway and they couldn't catch up. I ended up with a 9 over ticket 74/65, and went to traffic school to get it cleared off my record. All I can say is pull over and hope for mercy. Also they were both Sheriffs deputy's, if it had been a Highway Trooper I would have been boned.

Shit I got off lucky the other day. I drove my friends new Honda Fit Sport in the neighborhood where I work. I hit 60 in a 25mph zone passed cars on the left, and ran 2 stop signs. The cop let me and my buddy go with a ticket that said warning speed and a fix it for not having a new insurance card b/c he just got the car 2 days earlier. I was like thank you so I just have to go to court with my buddy and show them the insurance.

yep. but whats sad is that i cant drive the much under 2k rpm because of the aggressive cam. but cruising on the freeway i'm usually in 5th gear, just above 70 to 75 mph

Thanks. I dont think i'd ever go for an nsx. what i really needed was just raw power and nsx can never do that easily. may be one day when i'm a millionare then i might add one to my collection lol

Also, got some new goodies for the z06. one of them:

What do you mean I flaked? I looked for your corvette for hours. You said I could easily find it with all the cougars that would be flocking around it. Ugh, its you who is the flaker.
