    Hi Dune, Just a heads up in case you didn't know, part 23 and 24 build videos do not come up through YouTube, but you can find them through the forum build videos posts.

    V1 ChrisH’s extended track goblin - 08 SS/TC donor #419

    Hey Gtstorey, I think you are correct. If I check the bottom of the shock there is space between the barrel and the bottom of the shock are different between the two and matches the difference I see in the threaded barrel. I take it off and adjust the overall length tomorrow. Thanks for the info.

    V1 ChrisH’s extended track goblin - 08 SS/TC donor #419

    Some more progress today, and another suspension question. The rear coil overs are labeled FR and FL, I assume Front Right and Front Left. The FR coil overs are about two inches longer. What is the reason for this and does it lead to a mis-match in the number of threads left on the shock?

    Suspension Question: So I'm starting stage 2 of the goblin and was wondering if anyone remembers what bag contains the steel rod end mounts? I can't seem to find them in the suspension hardware bags. Thanks in advance.

    Coincidentally enough, a video came out today showing a race car driving around the streets of San Francisco which now seems relevant to this conversation.

    V1 ChrisH’s extended track goblin - 08 SS/TC donor #419

    That would be awesome, thanks. I'm totally unfamiliar with the car racing groups in the area so any introduction to what you guys do would be really appreciated. Also, if there is anything I can lend a hand with or help out let me know, SF is only a 20 minute drive from my place.

    I'm in Redwood City, but I'm actually building the goblin in my brother's shop in Arizona. I will finish the car then bring it to the Bay Area in in January and start the SB100 process to get California tags. It looks like you are certainly building a much more sophisticated goblin, are you...

    V1 Windshield Help Needed

    That would be great thanks, but no need to hurry if you have other things to do work on. I won't be at that stage of getting things street legal until this fall at the earliest. Thanks again.

    V1 ChrisH’s extended track goblin - 08 SS/TC donor #419

    Problem solved. I was looking over all the connections and the fuse box looked a a bit misaligned so I took it apart and noticed one of the multiplugs was not seated completely so I tightened it back up making sure it seated and the anti-theft lock went away and engined started fine. Thanks for...

    V1 ChrisH’s extended track goblin - 08 SS/TC donor #419

    So I read 60 ohms resistance when I check the OBDII plug sites 6 and 14. I also get no fault codes from the OBDII reader, but unfortunately the anti theft light is still there and the fuel pump does not turn on when the key is in the on position. But it does look like the throttle body does...

    V1 ChrisH’s extended track goblin - 08 SS/TC donor #419

    When I tried to start the engine the first time the anti-theft light turned on and a clicking sound came from the fuse box, also no fuel pump sounds. Snooping through the forum it seems that since my donor is a 2008 SS TC I won't be able to disable VATS using an HP tuner so I will have to root...
