I just figured your car was slower as a vert... My bad SIR BEN!
and Peter, you be quiet.. just wait till your girl kicks your ass on the track...straight and turns...lol
BTW, Ben, call911 makes over 600hp and he was pulling low 11s in the quarter... he is not a true drag car.. it makes alot of difference. Pat Burton makes less than 500 and pulls 9s... his suspension is right!
BOTH BOOSTED CARS.....
LOL driver mod ftw! :D I'll still win hehe ;)Quote:

Start my meridian job monday. Project ls 240z aka 570z is go for lift off.
Ben f him. Dont let people like that influence you. If i love a car i dont care if it runs 10s or 35s just as long as i enjoy driving it. He is probably just jealous and butthurt his isnt as nice if he even has one.

And I will upgrade bottom end after a season of running that set up, do forged pistons, rods, and crank so I can run a bigger shot later down the road
But I'm going to bed, I have school in 8 hours

You will have to come take it around birmingham or atlanta when its done. I figure 2800lbs, 17x7/17x9 setup, 500whp with a t56 or zf, a 3 link/watts link setup 9inch rear, and coilovers/swaybars/adj control arms etc etc should be pretty fun. Although its going to take time to dial it in im sure.Quote:

Hahaha I love my LTx cars, but purely in the looks department - 98+ Trans Am WS6 > LTx Trans Am any day of the week... :giveup:
Unless life happens you will see it at the shootout. 500whp/2800lbs vs 600whp/3600lbs when the shootout is over. Wait i forgot popo doesnt race his car at the shootout. Burn!!!Quote:

I will agree with this only with the use of a WSQ hood ;) I do like the fender vents though on the sides, wish I could swap those and only those lol. But the WSQ is fucking sexy! Someone needs to fab up one for our cars...Quote:

Well, the bird is sitting at Chevrolet in line for an alignment. I really hate having to leave it there while I'm sitting here at work, I'm sooooo paranoid about all the horror stories of techs joy-riding in cars they're supposed to be working on and breaking shit. I don't think the guys there would do that (I hope), as they are an older bunch, so I'm expecting more maturity. This is the first time I've ever had to take my car to a shop though :lol:
I like the 98+ TA. But thank the front end got to "gimmicky" and cartoonish.. The LTX is more sleek and to the point. And looks very aggressive.Quote:

I'm confused - are we talking tire shine or painting the rims? Tire shine I love Armor All's tire shine gel (comes in an orange bottle)... lasts a really long time and doesn't fling off.
Its a spray on tire shine/coating. Kinda like a high gloss clearcoat for tires.Quote:
