    Thanks!! Definately runs out very well. Actually feels like a truck rear ended it from a stop.

    I still have not had a chance to mess with the tune, but I did get some tune-up work and fluid changes done.

    Cleaned the throttle bodies and PCVs, used GM Top-End clean on the intake and a GM fuel system cleaner in the tank, drained and filled the trans (don't believe in machine flushes), and changed the rear differential fluid.

    I finally got around to making a couple of video clips. Sorry I leaned into the Zoom button on the first one. 0-80 in ~7 seconds with decent traction (still had some wheelspin around 20 mph and on chirped 1-2) Windows were up on this video.

    The 2nd clip was a spin fest. 1st gear had the traction control fighting to keep the car launching in a straight line and the wheelspin added nearly a full second onto the 0-80. Was also going uphill from about the 60 mph mark on. Still got up pretty quickly though.

    I have been neglecting actually tuning this car. Its to the point that it needs to be tuned. I put a Bullydog programmer I had on it with their 93 octane tune. Programmer was left over from my brothers Frontier when he had it. It now runs around 10.5-11:1 in PE mode from all the changes I have made. It did make 425 RWHP and 434 RWTQ recently. Also ran 92 mph in the 1/8 mile in 2,500 DA. Kept spinning badly off the line on the greasy track though and had 2.5-2.6s 60' times. It is actually amazing how well the factory ECM has not overly complained about what I have done. The fuel trims at part-throttle are good, no detonation or knock retard, and it drives just like stock until the throttle is hammered down.

    I also discovered another weakness in this car. Even though it has the Sport package brakes, its hard on rotors. I warped the front rotors badly. I have a set of Power Stop Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Pads and Rotors on the way front and rear. Should help this heavy car stop as well as it goes.
