The car sometimes takes a second to crank over, but it's been like that for a while (nearly 5 years) and it doesn't affect the car when running.  The motor was replaced at 62,000 miles by GM and the odometer reads 172k, which is why the car was listed at 110k.

• On that note, I have a file full of dealership receipts and various paperwork that will come with the car.

This car is such a blast to drive. Go and drive one and you'll know what I mean.  I figured the best way to learn how to drive a manual was to buy one.  The following modifications have been done to the car.

Exterior modifications: -18” Holden VZ wheels with Toyo TR-1 245/40/18 tires. -Venture Shield clear bra on front fascia. Interior modification: -20% window tint. Drivetrain modification: -B&M short throw shifter. -Skip shift eliminator. Suspension modification: -Hotchkis front and rear adjustable sway bars.

Here's a quick write-up of my electric exhaust cutout installation.  I did the installation at my parents house in Georgetown with my dad.  When I say "I did" I probably really mean "we did" it - or better yet, he did it. I got the cutouts from Dave Hacker at DMH Performance .

Here's a picture of where I installed the button.  It's the round button right above the T/C button  (which is right above the center console  compartment).  It looks factory, so it's kinda hard to see unless you know what you are looking for.

I ran the wires through the rubber shift boot, looking up from under the car - it's the white rubber part on top of the transmission. I did the whole installation without taking the cover for the shifter off, but I bet it would have been a hell of a lot easier if I took it off.  I just put my hand up the side of the console to feed the wires and make the hole in the shift boot. I put my hand in the side of the console where you can see the wire hanging out in some of the pictures. I centered the switch above the T/C button and had to cut out part of the plastic so it would fit through. I  took the top level plastic off, drilled a pilot hole, then used a 3/4" bit to make the hole for the switch.

The default length of wire that comes is extra long, so I just coiled it up under the center console. I had to extend the red power wire because I installed the switch right above the traction control (T/C) button and I wanted to pull power directly from the fuse box. I fed the power wire under the center console and up into the fuse box to a 20 amp fuse.  

For the time being, I wired the black ground wire onto the bolt on the passenger seat closest to the console.  There may be a good place to ground it under the console, but like I said I didn't take the console all the way apart.
