Hey welcome to the board. Im from Garfield so Im not to far from where you are. There are plenty of people on here from our area. A couple of us go to the Bennigans show every Monday in Saddlebrook if ya wanted to stop by. If ya have any question just ask everyone here is good to deal with.

I thought it was the McDonalds on 46. Anyway, I'm from the same town as Twiztid, and if my car ever stops breaking down, I will be taking it to show at Benigans and the fast food place on 46 that could be a McDonalds or Burger King.

Yes that is a Harwood. And it is fiberglass. I just wish the rest of the car was working the way it should. My trans mounts are gone again or I may need a new cross member. But I am definatly going to the Natl's next week. Hopefully I will have my system in, 2 S12L7's powered by a KX1200.1 amp. All kicker baby. And I really hope my trans problems are fix so I can run it.

I swear a chick with a good taste in cars is awesome. I have a even dumber question. I only need one trans mount right? not a pair like the engine? If so This is going to have to wait till tomorrow after work because Saturday I am building my box for my Kicker Solo Barics S12L7's, yea thats right some type of big balla type $hit. A pair baby plus my KX1200.1 amp will be here next week and then I'm going Bump Bump Bump down the street Spinning 3rd again. I alos noticed that you can't shorten your name like you can mine I could call you Chik but thats not cool. Thanks again Chick

its been awhile since i replaced it but yeah i think its one piece, i have a pioneer premire 700 w amplifier. 2 rockford 6x9's, and ive got a rockford bass tube with a 12 in there. See i prefer the bass tubes in the hachback cause it gives a better sound than a box, plus i found if your running a box with 2 tens in it in there, the glass either breaks or shifts. btw call me nikki

Nikki,
Thanks for your help. I don't want to be a typical male when I say I never though I would be helped out by a girl with my car but there are always the exceptions. :hail: Thanks again.

And expecially for you to be into some american cars and not all into the Import sceen. I know a couple of girls that are into car but not fixing them or anything but they all like the imports. I don't have anything against that. I just like my Camaros as you can see by my signature.

well you do have awesome taste in cars ill tell you that haha ive been into 3rd gens for a long time thats why i bought my firebird as my first car. And as for ricers?? hahahahha i hate those nasty cars they are wayyy to common and stupid looking. nomatter what people do to them they all look the same (crappy). 3rd gens are sleek and fast. if you ever have any questions dont hesitate to ask me about your car, i dont know everything but do know a great deal after all, my firebird was a lemon ive invested over 10 grand into it since i got it just to keep it running.learned to work on it myself , Now its mechanically brand new lol.

Nikki,
I couldn't find any place around here that had poly trans mounts. So I had To order from summit. I spoke to this place that said they could have it here tomorrow the 13th but it would be $50. I don't need it that bad. $28 from Summit and will be here Tuesday or Wednesday. Then it is going in the car. Hopefully when I get back from wildwood my amp will be here to. so I will have a lot to do on my 2 weeks off from work. I'm so happy. I feel like dancing :lala: :lala: :lala: :lala:

hooters has their car show every friday from 6-10. i usually go every week, just didnt go this past friday due to the rain. On wednesday night i believe from 6-9? is the car show/cruise at the burger king in fairfield. Its located by calandras bakery, a little after that. or if you've heard of whitey ford's batting cages in fairfield its on the oppossite side of the street. If you go to the BK in fairfield on wednesday i'll head over there as well, perhaps get some more people to go. and also consider going to the upcoming show that we have planned down in toms river on saturday august 10th, check the sticky at the top of the Northeast Forum for more details. should make for a hella good time
