    CT4-V Open exhaust valves without burbles/pops?

    It's not about the exhaust valves. It's in the tuning. Don't overthink it. It's good as is. The car needs a little theater.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    My recommendation is NOT to lower it. Its hard enough to keep the splitter from scraping on everything, the car sits good as is, you don't want to screw with finely tunned suspension that many very knowledgeble engineers painstakenly developed and refined. Also taking an inch out of already...

    Clutch chatter

    I had chatter on my ats-v at 13k miles when I bought it and it was still doing the same at 34k when I sold it. It didn't get any worse and no remidiation was attempted.

    CT4-V Possible to add High Performance steering wheel later?

    I would pay to delete an Alcantara option. Using this material on areas handled every time you drive is madness. Unless you want to wear gloves every time you drive. I sure don't.

    When Do You Change Your Oil?

    It's not just time. It's a sophisticated algorithm that factors in time, mileage, operating temperatures, cold starts, etc....a lot of very knowledgeable engineers spent years developing it. I wouldn't secondguess unless you just want to change earlier than it's calling. Probably not needed, but...

    CT5-V Rear seat center seat belt

    For me, it's getting some more color into that black hole of an interior. Just jewelery, really.

    When Do You Change Your Oil?

    Closer to 5%, but only because it is time dictated and is coming up on a year old oil with less than 3k miles. Go by the indicator and you will be good.

    CT5-V Rear seat center seat belt

    Confirmed that only the cover is different between the ct4 and ct5 center belts. The ct5 retractor bolted right into my ct4. Only the cover had to be cut off and moved from one to the other.

    6mm spacer info

    Not sure if you are aware, but spacers that aren't bolted on, eat up your lug nut thread engagement. Unless you are planning getting longer studs, I would not do 6mm spacers. To give you an example, on my ATS-V, 5mm spacers cut down my lug nut thread engagement by half. It went from about 9.5...

    Apex Wheels for CT4-V Blackwing

    I have the flow formed version SM-10 sitting on the rack waiting for spring. Unfortunatelly, wouldn't have on car pics until April.

    Seat Belt Chime Disable

    He does his own crash testing and safety research. I believe him. Hey....is this RiptideHTC's second account by any chance? My spidy sense picks up a few similarities.

    Seat Belt Chime Disable

    People have an amazing ability to see only the statistics and arguments that fit their narrative and agenda.....Confirmation bias.....You can find a way to justify almost any nonsense.

    Seat Belt Chime Disable

    Perhaps they would like to not die in an accident, take a flight though the windshield, or have the air bag explode into their face or experience a litany of other possibilities resulting from unsecured passengers in a moving vehicle coming to a stop in a fraction of a second.

    Loud shifter when cold

    Creative steel bushings last longer, but also oval out/fall apart. Just a shifty design.

    Loud shifter when cold

    Be prepared for them to tell you that it's normal. Took 3 visits to two dealers to get it done. Don't accept their bs.

    Loud shifter when cold

    Remove the exhaust and the driveshaft and lower/tilt the tranny.

    Loud shifter when cold

    Yes. Problem goes back to the atsv. It's the shifter mounting plate bushings ovaling out. They shrink due to the cold and allow excessive movement until the transmission tunnel warms up. Eventually the assembly is going to start banging on the tunnel when going over bumps and railroad tracks. It...
