Project "NS GS"
Project NICE and SIMPLE GRAND SPORT...
Well as many of you have seen...I relisted the car for sale. Not for any other reason than because I wanted to thin the group... and well because its a TPI and not a beloved LTX.
Well after many lowball offers...and after my "serious" buyer backing out there are new plans.
With the help.of a good friend... I plan to have the L98 pulled out... and the engine bay cleaned up.and simplified.
Its a wiring mess from conjoining multiple cars of different years together;
With that being said... I plan to have a CARBD LTX built for the car and installed as well.
(I know I know...why a carb? Simply because I wan a keep this project simple... no opti... no computer contolled... and with all the wiring and mess that is under the hood... a harness modification would be ugly as it is already very very "modified."
The plan is a H(not positive about heads/C/I set up and the ability to take a 200 or 260 hit...
Once that is squared away... some odds and end maint...
-alot of play in the steering wheel...needs a new rag joint and shaft I believe.
-small cage
-upgrade half shafts
-prob will need to upgrade ds
-needs bushings and maybe a torque tube mount (thump under the car when launching)
-look into going to another member ( @arod ) here for some body work to the fiberglass pained quarters.




In the end... I love the gs look...amd I think this could be a fun SIMPLE project.
Sooooo stay tuned. (If u want).
BTW...the car is still listed on CL for sale. So if someone has the 4k or more before the work begins...I will sell it
