hi chaps, just joined the site, i have a 1992 firebird in red.bought from london a few wks back,now been completly serviced,raced at shakespear county and cruised through the cotswold villages. next on the list is a pinion oil seal which i will do before the wk end as im off to wheels day at north weald

thats one of the nicest 3rd gen firebirds ive seen

cheers mate,it is in good condition.being a ford man im quite suprised theres no welding to be done lol.
you going to the thing in winterbourne on sunday,american car clubs b day
get you the details if you want

cheers

What engine and tranny has it got and what were your times at Shakespear?

ha yeh i just had to do 10 holes in mine

mines not quite finished, plus im stuck in plymouth now

hi mate,the engine is a 3.1 v6 with a 3 speed auto with overdrive which is excellent on fuel and smooth as you like.
put into drive and use kick down its a completly different car.

started off the wk end with an 18.6 on sat. finished off with a 17.3 on sunday,shes completly stock but since then ive changed the gear box fluid and filter as it would tend to hold on the gear a little to long.also done the pinion oil seal,oil and filter and now has new better rubber as it was on cooper cobras(nice) now on kuhmos which are a lot better.

One thing I noticed with the Kumho tyres is that the 245 Kumho was just over an inch narrower than a 245 BFG and Cooper Cobra tyre that I have. I run Kumhos because of the price but am interested in trying out other rubber to see what the persormance difference is.

i found the cooper cobras a little to hard for my liking.not a lot of grip ha ha.on the plus side takes ages to wear them out,even with doing burnouts but going round corners is another story.
would be better if i had a lsd though
