PICS OF MY CAR (now with the hood down)
Finally!!!! A site worth joining. Thanks to all those people who helped me but didnt really know they did.(especially on the isolation relay for the headlights) you answered my question I didnt even have to post!!
Just though Id show off my car.
When I bought this car 2004 I wasn't too wild about the colour but after the motor swap and all the work that went into buffing out the paint it kind of grew on me. It turns heads everywhere I go. Still got some things to do on it. I would like strip it completely and redo the car. But for now it still looks good.

F1,
Welcome aboard! What kind of motor you stick in there? Take care of that thing. Nothing looks better than a shinny third gen!!
Take care,
Rabi C.

Not a fan of the 2 tone purpleish paint, but it looks very clean! Keep up the good work.

i think it looks cool too. nobody else on here has one like it (they might, but you know what im saying). id match the spoiler to the body color though instead of the gfx color. looks good though, i like it.

Re: NEW TO THE BOARD AND PICS OFMY CAR
Thank For the comments. Ill post a pic with the hood down as soon as I can. As for the STEELIES. I hoping to get a set for drag lites with a 27X10 Street/strip Tire in the near future. Ive already got a set of slicks mounted on 15X10 rims And they just fit Perfectly.
Rabi, Its 350 chev 4bolt main 30over Edelbrock Performer RPM cam and intake kit. Havent offically dyno'd it yet But it should be pushing 400+ at the crank.
it eans 13.02 in the quarter hoping to hit mid 12's this summer.. she needs to go on a diet though.
On the two tone paint its actually the same metallic purple its just how the shadows hit the car

f1,
Nice scoop, your hood looks clean! The one thing i've learned is to enjoy the process. With that healthy motor, it looks like you have lots to enjoy !
Rabi C.
Ps what do you think of that performer cam? Is that the flat tappet or hyd roller?

Re: NEW TO THE BOARD AND PICS OFMY CAR
Thanks on fire.
I Really like the performer cam/intake combo She pulls all the way to 6500. Might be able to hit 7 but but with the set up it starts to run out of breath at 6500
Its a flat tappet style cam. I find though If I crack the throttle with the idle under 1000rpm it kind of hesitates though its not crisp. but if the it idles around 1000 throttle response is great.
