Yes. Base CTS hubs on all four corners.

@@revmatchrod8340 wow easy , thanks for the info man

No prob

I just Plasti dipped it.

Appreciate it. And it seems to be not bad compared to the lowering springs.

Yes

Thanks

I will try and check it out. Lately I’ve been working some long hours at work, hence why I haven’t put out more recent content.

I actually got it from Ground Controls website online.

Yes, the rear is a little different for the hubs because of having to deal with the axles, but going this route means that the stock parking brake system doesn’t have to be modified or deleted

Thanks, truly appreciate it! I’ve been busy as of late, but as I have time I will look to put more vids together. The V1 is an incredible platform, you will enjoy it when you get one.

I’m not sure what that is, but no.

It has a TSP 228r cam with supporting valvetrain, custom air intake tube with a drop in K&n filter, pacesetter long tube headers and magnaflow flow exhaust system with Granatelli 3 inch low pro cutouts

Thanks! The wicker bill I got from a gentleman by the name of Jake Ang. He makes this and other products that fit well on the 1st Gen V. If you are not a member already you should join The CTSV1 vs. the World page on FB. A lot of knowledge with fellow V1 owners and that’s where you can find Jake Ang for the wicker bill. the rear diffuser is just an eBay 7 fin.

@@revmatchrod8340 Cool, yea i've heard of him and I am on there. I like the car!

It’s plenty quick for me.

I wouldn’t mind doing that, but luckily I have never had any rear diff issues with this car after almost 5 years now of ownership.

18x8.5 +40 offset

390ish whp. It was tuned over 2 years ago, can’t quite remember the exact number.

Appreciate it. The thumbnail should be good now.

Sure thing, do you still have the 6 lug rims?

Appreciate it. And no that’s the lowest setting, I can raise it to the highest setting. High enough for me to drop a transmission if I needed to. The whole reason why I got them was for that. Dropped the trans twice in this car and it makes it so much easier doing so.

280-290 ish. It took a little while to get back down , so I was going to change the oil anyway so decided to get the cooler setup.

@@revmatchrod8340I might look into one myself. I've not seen mine past 240 yet but I haven't pushed it to hard. I'm trying to catch up on maintenance and neglect. I'll look at adding this to my list. I enjoy the videos keep them coming.

Yeah I think this is a great investment for the car because I really drive this thing pretty hard. And appreciate it man, I’ll try and push out more vids as I have time.

been a long time now, but what are your temps after the cooler ?

Yeah I think they do, but I like the wheels and the 5 lug swap. It opens the choices for wheels by a lot.

But why do you have bunk rims then? Car is awesome I just gotta give my unsolicited opinion.

It’s been a favorite wheel of mine for a while now. I personally like them and they actually serve as functional because they are pretty light and very durable.

“Bunk rims” 😂 they’re classics wtf 😂

Just preference man..his car is off the hook. It would be even more’r of the hooker with black rims

Thanks! These V1’s are just so damn fun!

None at all! 😎

Thanks, yeah it seems to have held up well while hammering it. Checked everything afterwards and no problem. LS durability I guess .

Any day can be a fun day lol!

I’m no pro and I like my transmission, so no super fast shifts.

@@revmatchrod8340 just givin ya hard time man. Car sounds good

You can definitely do donuts w no problem on that rear end…bust some out man

I’ll send you a clip of me in my V1 getting the tires down to the metal you can post.

Haha it’s all good! I kind of figured 😂 and thanks man

Thanks! It fits great for everything I need out of a fun car.

Thank you!

Thanks man! No rubbing at all. Rides amazing, performs better than the H&R springs that were on it, and it made me doing my alignments a bit easier and more consistent. GC is some high quality stuff.

You have the 5 lug conversion? You should get some better times on there. Great looking car and sounds awesome.

Thanks man. Yeah it’s 5 lug swapped with base CTS hubs and redrilled V rotors.

Are you sure though?

Yes sir, I’m not sure why it replied like 8 of the same statement lol. I deleted all the extra ones

Ok thanks, try it again, it should be good now. If not I’ll see what’s up.

Thanks man, and the Red Cross brace is a diff brace I got from a gentleman named Mark Woodruff. The bar in front of that is a trailing arm bar also made by him. Very high quality product and since having it I haven’t had a diff issue with this car, considering that is a weakness with this platform.

They are only closed very early in the morning leaving my neighborhood for work. Once I’m out, the cutouts are open lol

I can respect that

I have a 30 second clip of me goining nutty in a black 05 V. Let me send it to you for you to post.

Man they are the best set of tools I have in the garage!!

Thanks man

Yes sir! Indeed!

Nice!!

Nice!!

Yes sir I’m in Texas. Between work and my family I don’t get out much, but I try to make it to Super Lap Battle at COTA every year now since being to the one earlier this year! I was blown away!

@@revmatchrod8340 same here brother. Between work, wrenching, and family I don't get to do much driving other than to work and back. When is the event at COTA? I definently want to make that one!

I would like to do a track day with edge addicts I believe in December. If not then sometime next year. I am more than likely hitting up Super Lap battle in Match of next year!

@@revmatchrod8340 hit me up on this page, it will pop up on my alerts! I will bring the Vette out!

I agree. I drive mine pretty aggressively most times. It doesn’t see a drag strip or do burnouts and such.

I think I broke mine a bit

It was a fun 2 months though

I’m not to sure. I was thinking about trying to research it with the number of engines made for the V1 platform. of course 04-05 had the LS6 and there were more built. 06-07 ran the larger LS2 , but less V1’s were built. I think total for the 4 years there were a little less than 10k built for the U.S.

Yes
