Just decided to show off a few pics of my turdgen..


fresh out of the paintshop in '01



chillin with 98 Snake Eater and his Aztek Yellow 98 WS7



What nitrous? I'm an avid SCUBA diver... I swear!


The underhood shot...

 

I wasn't a fan of that hood at first but dang that looks good.

[/boomhauer off]:sillylol:

No really that is a sweet lookin third gen. nice work!!

 

what hood is that? I really like the looks of that, thanks

 

Nice GTA, hood looks good on your car.

 

Damn the car looks good, the hood to, but who made yours US Body or GT Auto, it fits like SH**, mine is GT Auto and it took some playing with but its on pretty straight now.

 

it's a lift off, I don't expect it to fit any better than it does.

I got it from USBody back in 2000

 

how did that double post happen, sorry

 

Very nice car.

 

Did you paint a rim around your parking lights or something, they look thinner, I like them

 

Yeah, the plastic parking light holder was painted white...


Gives it a thinner, cleaner look IMO.

 

Had a few more pics I forgot to throw in there...

Oh so shiny! (needs a good buffing ) Anyone see a diff between a standard NX solenoid & a NOS solenoid?




Wouldnt be a real car without A Pillar gauges...



The best darn club a guy could ask for :hail:

 

what are some motor specs, what she run?

got any pics of the rest of the interior, looks like you painted some peices.

 

The interior is pretty stock looking..

the one trim piece you see painted is the only thing painted.. on both sides of the dash.


My nitrous arming panel is the H/AC controls.. All done with tinted plexi and flush mounted buttons.

Seats are black cloth seats from a 96 TA (no pics of new seats/interior)

In center AC vent is nordskogg A/F gauge.

Back seats removed, 15lb bottle where the pass. side back seat was.

Back well has an Orion XTR DVC pro 12 sub, custom MTX amp, etc. etc.



It runs 14.4s all day on a 100 shot.

I swear. :lala:

 

bwuhahaha.. i love the 14.4 comment.

gosh, that intake looks purty. wonder who polished that thing up... i mean, he could've done a little bit better but what do you expect for 2 hours of work. ill finish it up right one day.

 

Love the car man. Gives me some ideas of what I want to do when I get my car.

 

seriously is it a stock motor w/ 100 shot? and what do you really run? thanks

 

No, it's nowhere near stock...

Ported heads, cammed, rockers, pistons, ported upper/lower, stall, built 700r4, 3.73s, 1.75" shorties, full exhaust, self prom, etc, etc...

and now sporting a new dual stage n2o setup. (pics will be up in a couple days of that..)


The car is not a track car.. pure street fury.

 

nice looking car you have there!! i like that hood alot also...

 

Beautiful car man. But those front turn signals keep reminding me of something....

Are you the old Ben87GTA or is that his old car by any chance? His front signals were also painted as such and I haven't seem him around these boards in years.

 

lol.. yeah.. That's me.

 

hey what nitrous express kit do you have? I'm going to be ordering one soon. and I noticed tehy don't have a TPI plate one, which one did you get? thanks for your time.

Josh

 

NX 20920 GM EFI kit...

Single Nozzle.

 

So no times N/A? Just with the N20? Sweet car. What kind of wheels do you have on there now? Sorry for the questions! Later

 

hes sporting the mad fly stock black crosslace gta wheels... although that one wheel keeps doing a little dance.

 

Or the gold ones that have been on it since 87. Not too observant, are we?

 

they're always black when i see them. clean 'em and they'd be gold.

 

excellent man. I've been drooling over your car for a long time. If I remember right you were the first with the RA II hood. and you told me you had a working airbox for it (which for back then was BIG news). You ever finish up that airbox?

But yeah...welcome back (or whatever....I thought you were gone for good....I remember you saying something about selling out and buying a Beamer or something). Thanks for being an inspiration with those beautiful first pics of the RA II hood.

 

on your hood, how many pins do you have...4? and where are they placed???

 

The hood has 4 pins.. front two are in the rubber bump-stop holes IIRC... the back two are on that decking piece, easily accessed.. Sorry I'm not more in depth on that.. Had a few drinks so far tonight


Yeah, I finished the Air Box.. It didn't flow enough though.. car run much better with the PVC -> K&N (fake K&N ) Intake was sold long ago..

And yeah.. I was looking at 330ci's for a while.. I still want one.. I just don't have a good job anymore.. so it rules that one out.

 

who makes that strut tower brace and are your heads just regular portd L98 iron heads???? AARON

 

BMR (www.bmrfabrication.com) and yeah

 

Love the car man, and loved the video of you purging out the nostrils that you posted on the Power Adder Forum. That was soo funny!

 

nah, he just need to adjust his headlights... lots of thirdgen ta iv'e seen have them sagging down and it looks like they have a lazy eye or somthing......

theres four bolts that is on the headlight... two are in the back and you have to remove the black cover to get to the front ones.. a little adjusting and he's set....

i have included a pic of mine to show how they should be.... i'm not saying mines perfect but i'm into the details.....

as you can see the driver side of the hood actually is higher than the passenger in the front
