tires! finally, and car is BACK IN THE SHOP!!!!!


I finally got some new tires.
Someone had ordered some Nittos at discount and never picked them up, so I took em!
315 35 17 Drag radials, and 275 40 17 Nitto nt555...
They are great!

They hook up well, and I havent even aired them down, im not using an inch or two of tread, and cant wait for a good weekend to try them at the track.

So, the other night, im coming down my road and stop for someone, then take off from 2nd, and go to shift to third, and cant get it in. I try 4th to no avail. Low and behole, my car is STUCK in 2nd, and wont come out....
She is in the shop for TSB's, drivers seat lumbar, and now the tranny now... should be out by next week,.....

I feel your pain mine needed a new rear at 115 miles.

Just got out of service today for Spedo/Odometer issue.

Speed was off and odometer is wrong by about +- 300 miles.
Cant reset odom so I gotta live with it.

Speed fixed tho.

I have a problem with speed and odometer I took it in the day after I bought the car because every 3/4 of a mile it would click off 1 mile, They fixed the odometer...but not really now it go's 1.1 miles for every 1 mile so it is in my favor and I havent taken it back. and the speedo is off, I have the 18" wheels and 3.31 gear. I went to the race track and I'm going thru the traps at 95mph but my time slip says 106 mph so its all messed up. The dealer changed the 3.31 to 3.55 in computer ....but the car has the 3.31 I might take It back in later to have them figure it out...in the mean time I will put more miles on it......JM
