Just sitting in the airport in Albuquerque. Put the Jewl up for hibernating two weeks ago before I left. See you all soon.

This car is great in the snow. I put snow tires on her and she goes without a problem.
I am proud to own this car. It is amazing.

That's got nothing to do with why mine is garaged.

This is the worst car I've ever known in the snow. I had to have neighbors push my car back into my driveway AFTER the plowtruck came because I couldnt get traction, and its the only car where I have actually had to use a "4th gear start" to get moving. Just my .02, but it doesnt matter because I won't bring him out all winter because of the salt- so he stays nice, warm, cozy, and clean in my garage. (Last year my SUV broke down and I had no choice for a few days)

Wow that was off topic for what I logged on to ask.

Last "mod Day", a lady in I believe a blue camaro (Was it you DE?) had a CAI that I really liked the look of- it had a plexiglass top. I've been looking to buy a CAI and haven't run into that one anywhere, and was just wondering what brand it was? Was it a version of the rotofab? It may have been a V6 version, but I wanted to ask!

Thanks! (Christmas Shopping for Bee)

RD JEWL and DE have it. Its Cold Air Inductions CAI. (imaginative name there) Check them out if you like the look. I have the RotoFab and love it but its 6 -vs- 1/2 dozen.

Darth_Emma · 12-10-2010, 09:51 AM

I did have a Cold Air Inductions intake, but I recently switched to a Roto-Fab.The CAI intake was nice, but once I got the supercharger, I changed to the Roto-Fab because it produced better results with my supercharger (the dyno numbers show this to be true as well as the way the car drives).

Arachnyd · 12-10-2010, 10:07 AM

Thank you both! I read the comparison thread on the CAIs, and the CAI intake scored pretty well, I guess I must have never seen a picture of it, so thanks for the info! Does the cover come off easy enough to replace wiper fluids?

thanks!

Yes. Very easy. The screws turn half a turn and the lid comes right off.

I agree, I've had no problems with my car in the snow & I've had a good test this week with all the lake effect snow. It's no worse than any of my previous vechicles (all 2WD pick-ups)

If you are using the tires that came on it from the factory, then it won't go in the snow. You would have to get snow tires for the winter.

gahammerle · 12-12-2010, 03:30 PM

You need snow tires. The tires on your car, the P-Zero's are not useful under something like 30 degrees. They are a summer only tire. Get some snow shoes and see that baby run.

I stretched the body to make it a 4 door, but I swapped in the 3.6L DI V6 for fuel economy. Then I picked up a corvette body around the V8. I also swapped the body for a C2 Z28. (In short I traded it for three cars, a Corvette Z06r, a C2 Camaro Z28, and a Cadillac CTS Summer Performance package 3.6L DI with Aisin 6spd.)
