I thought I would stop in and say HI. I searched around for Cadillac forums and this looks to be the one with the most action. I'm a hardcore car nut and performance junkie. I currently have a pair of Nissans for my daily driver Maxima (a32) and track car 300ZX (z32) . We picked up a 2005 SRX to replace my wifes 2004 SAAB 9-3 lease, the SAAB was fun and sporty but a little small for the family car. I'm a regular on the Maxima and Z forums and hope I can help out my fellow SRX owners as I start sucking up all the info I can on the SRX. So far I really like the SRX, performance better is than I expected from the V6. I think step one will be a better tires (performance summer tires with out the staggered stock sizes.... I can't figure what they were doing with that, unless they just wanted to cause terminal understeer) I doubt I'll do much other than normal wear and tear parts for a while. My wife hates when I mod her cars and it's a CPO Cadillac so it has the 6yr/100k warranty. I need to put a few thousand miles on it to figure out what it needs and what I can get away with...lol. (well it needs a LS2/T56 and CTS-V brakes... think the wife would notice, 6spd might give it away)

Drifter

Welcome to our site. We are getting more traffic here by the day. We have some good tech guys here but could always use another wrench. Looking forward to your input.
Some sections appear to have no action. This is because the site has just been improved by adding new sections.
Speaking of drifter, check out topic under sights and sounds for a video of cts drifting. Actually might be under V section, check 'em all out.
The moderators here are hands off except for zapping spammers. Off-topic section is almost NO RULES.

Again, welcome.

G.A.R.Y.

ps. Great photo, looks like central or N. Florida?
