"Your boy, BJR" (jerseyshoreben)
03/12/2015 at 07:57 • Filed to: None | 4 | 41 |
After signing up for Cadillac Forums, and learning you need to pay $100 per year to get the full benefits/have a page that doesn't look and act like a circa 2002 Aol page, I decided fuck that. HOWEVER, I did decide to do something about it. What did I do, you ask? Why I created my own Cadillac forum. On our very own kinja. Before you go "oh no, not another sub blog", it isn't. It is a totally separate entity from oppositelock, although if anyone here (I'm looking at you, It's Chrome) wants authorship, they certainly can. Anyway, link to it is !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .
Thanks!

Just a heads up I may be posting an Oppo review of the DTS sometime today or tomorrow, if you wish to share that onto your Cadillac subblog.

You can add people, edit the tagline, and cock swing the banhammer for little to no reason. It's fun!

With all the authors you've cleared so far, I don't know if I qualify. May I suggest that holding a world record and two track records in my XLR-V may get me an interview. Or maybe my escapades with Johnny OConnell and Andy Pilgrim at Detroit, Atlanta, Ohio, and Road America? Or should I drop names at Cadillac HQ/Marketing?
I'll just lurk around here and see how it goes....

if you can get me in the door at HQ, I'll make you a damn owner.
(I'm pretty sure I added you this morning before you even asked though)
I am going to need your Northstar wizardry to crank out silly amounts of power in my DeVille.

Somehow I figured that when you reposted my Convoy article. HeHe

I can, but I'd have to kill you afterwards. Hell, the last time I saw some of them, they kidnapped me off the floor of the Chicago Auto Show. I hate that they moved to NY, I visit Detroit often, but I'm never in NY.

My ESC-V would have probably been a good baseline, but I've dismantled a lot of the go-fast bits. In its heyday, I had a one-off engine tune for 6lbs of boost from a TRD centrifugal supercharger, 3" intake, 3" catback to Corsa Sport mufflers, an over-the-top tranny shift kit (can you say torque steer), sport suspension, upgraded brakes.
The styling stuff is still there: V badges, the one and only Eldorado V grille, stainless 4"exhaust tips, LED taillights, functional CTS-V fender vents, E34 halo headlamps, 55w 8000K low beams and fogs, 20x8 1/2 real spoke wheels and an 8-trumpet 240psi train horns. The rear wing, front spoiler, and side skirts are cluttering up my basement.
Poor thing has become my winter beater, hell, I don't think I even bothered to take the snow tires off last year.

Yes, I still have 5 of them. Sell them, HELL NO!!
Do you know how hard it is to find FWD 100 Spoke 20x8 1/2 with the right ofset and Cadillac adapters. The last manufacturer, OG Wheels, would send me two a year (potholes in my city are vicious) untill it just wasn't profitable any more.

Cadillac forums is like the Cadillac/LaSalle club, too uptight and and rigid. Are you a member of the largest Cadillac forum in the world, Cadillacforums.com? I'm a mod over there for the STS-V and XLR/-V subforums. Lots more content than the other you mentioned. Also a lot more mod friendly.

Cadillacforums.com is the one that wants $100 a year. I joined that, didn't like it, made Cadillac Corner.

After an unfortunate delay, I have secured use of the DeVille DTS for tomorrow afternoon. I expect to have nothing but good things to say about that car, apart from any complaints I may have.
