My new car
Drove it from Chicago to Calgary, Alberta.
89 Formula 350--most of the usual options.
Was rebuillt with
Edlebrock Aluminum E-Tec 170 heads
SLP Runners
SLP Headers (dual cat)
Borla exhaust
TPIS ZZ9 cam
1.6 Gold Cranerockers
Custom software
700R4 rebuilt with the usual parts+ 2400 B&M holeshot
Rebuilt 9 bolt 3.27
Subframe connectors, Hothkiss Strut bar and TDS wonderbar have been added along with all poly bushings. KYB GR2 Struts as well.
The paint and body are mint conditon due to alot of time and effort spent doing the job right. PPG Artic white
I even have T-top shades!! I never head of them before.
The ridiculous Intrax springs are being taken out. It's just too low unless the world had perfect roads.
Formual 350 decals and 16" Trans AM (the 20 slot ones) will be going on someday.

Re: My new car
Nice car! Did that storm behind you trip off any twisters or hail!? It looks mean!

Re: My new car
Intrax huh? How are they, handling wise? Soft? STIFF? My area is pretty dang smooth. No poiholes, no big dips, etc.
I'm tired of the 4x4 stance on my GTA.

Re: My new car
As for handling...the car was full of lugagge the whole trip so I wasn't gonna try to generate any high G-numbers.
I just want the freedom to drive the car anywhere and the way it sits now I feel I can't do that.
I'll sell them to you if you like

Re: My new car
Not a bad looking car....although their coming out the lowering makes it look badass. Maybe some Eibach Pro-Kit Springs?

I don't find the ride objectionable--they are on the stiff side though.

Re: My new car
damn thats an awesome formula! i love how low it looks, u dont see too many lowered formulas. take some more pictures of it
i appluad that your are putting the FORMULA 350 decal on there. that decal totally completes the car...some people remove them for whatever stupid reason.
go for a 91 bumper! (lol just thought i'd throw that in there)

Re: My new car
I knew some one was bound to make the bumper comment--hehe--not gonna happen. My wife hats the Banshee front--I don't mind it--but I like mine better.
I'll get some more shots soon--when its raised (in getting that done tomorrow)
