I just realized that i forgot to get pics of engine compartment, prolly list those by end of week.

 

front...

 

Very nice! I like the white face gauge overlays.

Is that the original urethane spoiler or the fiberglass reproduction?

 

Yeah, i love those overlays also, especially after i forked out $90 for them from Macewen motorsports.

That is the original spoiler as far as I know. If you look close in the picture of the rear end, you can see that the sides of the spoiler are kinda wavy, I hate that. But I would love to get a new fiberglass spoiler!

 

That is a very nice car. Only 2 things I can pick on.

I don't like the wheels, some crosslaces would look killer.

Normally, I don't like the windshield banner displaying what kind of car it is, but I really like that font, and it looks good.

 

What is the color? Looks real nice. Are your white face gauges home made or did you buy them?

I was kind of gambling when I bought that decal cuz the curve of the decal is designed to fit the windshield of a 4th gen. After I got it on I was real pleased with how it looked. I didnt think that any other color but white would look decent. Also, if that font looks familiar, the Trans Am font is found on 4th gen Trans Am's on the lower part of the doors.

The overlays were kinda pricey from Macewen motorsports at around $90 for the set that requires no removal of needles or no gluing or taping. If you look close you can see the white overlay that I bought for the shifter plate on the console. The guages look killer at night :rockon:

Bright Red was the factory color (8774 is the paint code)

 

Looks real good man! I too would have to agree on some cross lace wheels. Also, i see the infamous center consol coming apart! My friend had a firebird with the same crap and just about everyone i see, it is coming apart too. Overall, nice car. Keep it clean!

 

looks good, i think some new rims, and exhaust tips and that would really set that already beautiful car off...

 

Word - toss those tips and either go hidden or more flush with rear gfx.

 

yeah i know, the exhaust looks like **** Thats why I will probably be putting on an American Thunder cat back system with hooker headers here in a month or two. The people who owned it b4 me had some moran put those pipes on. I can live with it though until i get my system.

 

looking good!

 

real real nice car.

i like that font too..

but if you're gonna hide your plate number.. you might wanna do it in pic number 2 as well

cool car tho.

 

Nice, very nice. I think some new rims and tint would look great.

 

the pics were thrown up, dont car about the plates, just did it to a few then gave up.

 

tint will prolly be after exhaust, but as for rims, i can live with those until i get a good sum of $$ to get some 5 spokes or crosslaces or sumthing like that.

 

Nice. Kool pic with the lights on.

 

Great paint, now just keep it that way!

 

Looks good. Interesting that you have the SE wheels.

 

it came factory w/those wheels. the rpo is 18P. I havent spotted another TA with those wheels on them. All i have seen is black, red, and gold, but never charcoal metallic.

 

hey joshp14, you got my wheels! I've only seen two other cars now besides mune with them. Yours and this one:

~Matt

 

Sweet, now i have seen one w/those rims. Thats cool, i never have before.

 

mine has them too, but this is the only shot i have of my car at the moment

~Matt

 

Hey Matt what cam do u have do u have in ur bird again? i forgot which one it was u got but u said it was the Edelbrock right?

 

You car looks awesome. Where'd you get it painted?

Is it just me though or are the exhaust tips way off center?

 

got it painted at the place where i bought the car. its a small privately owned dealership. They do awesome work. and you are right about the tailpipes; even though they do good paint work, they suck at welding and bending pipes. They are way off centered and i have no muffler. But i am planning to get a catback system just as soon as i can find the money tree

 

'82 chevy, it is in my sig. Yeah it's the edelbrock. I got it last fall at the e-town swap meet for $50. It was brand new in the package, and nowadays they're about $150. So i'm glad i actually got a good deal on something (1st time ever!)

~Matt

 

any suggestions for new rims? what and where can i get em, show me pics that would look best

 

i've always been a fan of the ROH snypers: www.jdwheels.com/roh.html They are nice.

~Matt

 

sorry, the link doesn't work. Just take out the l in html and it will. My bad. I absolutely love your car josh. I like your spoiler better than the pic i posted too. I have another one on my computer somewhere, i'll find it.

~Matt

 

if you want you can check out my homepage in my sig for more pics. i was thinking about either some 2000 chrome vette rims, or either some tt2's. where can i get some tt2's? BTW, thanks for the compliment. Your car is prett Bad A$$ also.

 

yea, two different color cars are pretty bad a$$ in my book.

~Matt

 

"the time estimate for the quarter-mile is 13.96 seconds at 92.55 MPH."
I think your 1/4 miles time estimate is a little off, but otherwise, cool site. Maybe if you add about a second to that time you would be right. Cool car man.

~Matt

 

definitely a sweet car, and crosslaces would pimp it fer sure!

 

any that you recommend? pics? websites?

 

anyone know where i can get some tt2's or crosslaces?

 

well i was giving this some thought and I want to put on some Torq Thrust II's. Except i need some opinions on what size i should get. I currently have 15x7 stock rims. Should i get a bigger size like 16x7, or 16x8? And also, how do you know what size of tire to get to work correctly with the speedometer if you change the size of the rim?

 

I would have to say the best rims for our cars are the SLP Firehawk rims. http://slponline.com/view_product.asp?PARTNUMBER=80035&SHOWIMAGE=On&SHOWEMAIL=Off
