thanks.... very fun to drive, btw i have a black cargo cover for sale if anyone is interested ....its the black plastic with black carpet not the roll out kind..

 

Turbos are fun LS1 the AMC, and dont do the truck. Cam your Ram

 

I think Wexford Starlite starts may 28th..

Also, we could have our own meet somewhere.. lets actually make it happen this year.

 

With the changes in my living situation i don't think there will be any turbos, cams, or ls1's in the near future. Someday.

I'll be at wexford on the 28th. We should all meet up sometime. One of these years we'll make it happen.

GO PENS!!!!!!!

 

I'm in for having a meet somewhere. I know this Sunday is the Flashlight Drags out at Waynesburg Airport. Maybe we could even have a meet at a Sonic or Jerry's Curb Service.

 

Pittspeed Bench Race Annual event in steubenville ohio is June 13th. I will be attending that one.

 

hey June 13th is my birthday! That'd be a sweet present to go out there. I really wanna see your car Orr. I was checking out your Fquick page yesterday, I love the stance with the 18/19s and the pro kit. I'm seriously considering doing something similar. (then I can install the C6 Z06 brakes)

 

Hey there Y'nzers. I'm selling some parts on the classified forum. Sportlines and a flowmaster. I'd like to sell them local. I need to finish my ROC. Thanks guys. Oh, and I actually live in Pgh, the city!

 

So who will be at Wexford tonight? I'm going to try and get there early.

 

Will be home next thurs, june 3. Hope to hit up PRP

 

Yup..that never happened haha. Jerk.

Well the 00' TA ran a few 11 sec passes a few weeks ago. Did a best of 11.93 and has a little more left in it as it sits, but Im not done with it haha. For now its strictly a daily and Im doing a build up on my truck. The TA will be getting some new stuff soon enough, and hopefully back to the track a good many times before the season is over. Next season the goal will be 11.7s.

As for the 86' itll get done eventually. Im thinking about building the bottom end to handle nitrous. So that when I do take it to the track it wont be slower than my DD lol.

 

Nope..didnt go there either.


Lol just poking a lil fun.

 

none of us are really shining examples of reliability here haha. I've been to Irwin once, without my car, and I said I was gonna make it out more often.

 

Anyone going to camaro night this Friday out at Wexford?

 

PACE (Pittsburgh Area Camaro Enthuises) is from Cranberry (Butler Co.)
If you Camaro owners like cruises, the one at old Wexford Starlite drive-in (now a church) on Rt 19 is every Friday night 4pm - 9pm which averages 2,000 - 3,000 cars each week. They sponser a different goup of cars each week. It doesn't have to be Camaro night to go. Great food, dj's and excellent parking. I go couple times a year.
Although, I am getting sick of the do-ops.

 

I'm doing a 2.8/5speed swap from a junk 89 camaro into my 87 with no engine. If anyone close to pittsburgh would be willing to help, I could throw some money your way.

Or I know someone with a 305 out of a third gen firebird I could get for cheap as well.

 

Anyone know where I can buy a LH driver's floor and rockers panels from locally?

 

Anybody going to Irwin this saturday? I think I'm going to bring the bird out

 

yeah never made june 13th BRA...car was being a bitch. Oh well. Will be home this weekend to work on it and hopefully get it running right. May try to make it over to Irwin/norwin hills to browse the car show.

 

or maybe you were just being a bitch justin? why does it have to be the cars fault?

 

hahaha well since I was going to trailer it anyway, i really should have came out... i kinda regret not going. I dont think I had my 99 TA then or else I may have taken that. I dont remember when i got that thing

 

You had the ta. It just didn't want any of pittspeeds finest

 

that car is a turd

 

sorry guys, I tried really hard, but I didnt have time to make it.

 

What's happening Pittsburgh? Seems like not much.

 

Still fbodyless...

 

That sucks. I parked mine in my parents garage for the winter. I miss it already.

 

Bump even though I'm two hours away. Still planing to go to Pittsburgh for my cousins band. Would be nice to meet some 3rd gens members during the trip. Downtown Pittsburgh is a trip!

 

Hey all yinz Burghers.....Hope the Holidays and New Year have been good to everybody. Posting this to see if anybody out there needs a perfectly good windshield. I have one left over from a restoration. Am willing to donate it to someone who needs it, and can pick it up in the Ambridge area. Shoot me a PM if you're interested, really don't have a good place to store it. This is a good thread...keep it rolling

 

Conehead, you still have the windshield? I hope to finish my 89 rs this spring I will be needing some glass! Let me know!

 

Hey Pittsburghers! I'm puttin mine back together and I'm looking for some ideas for my doorpanels. I've kept my interior somewhat stock, as-in it has all the seats etc., but due to my cage I cant use the factory arm rests. I can make new panels, but I am looking for some pictures and ideas on how to recover. My interior is gray and black. Any suggestions or where to find pics is greatly appreciated. I saw the ones someone made with the flames under the fabric.............yeah i'm not that talented.

 

Yeah, last time I looked it was still wrapped in a blanket standing up in the corner of the body shop. If you can make it down to the Ambridge area to pick it up, it's all yours. I'm afraid if i don't move it pretty soon its gonna get broken. Be a shame to waste it if somebody needs one.

 

hey all, i need a rear axle like yesterday, those of you in hte butler arear know armco hill, right? well i spun out yesterday and the *** end hit the embankment in hte south bound lane, and i snapped my axle and bent the housing. i need a new axle ASAP. must be posi, gotta be in good shape and cheap, im a poor broke high school kid.

 

Call JJ's auto to see if he has any rear ends. It will likely be a 4th gen rear but they bolt in and have good posi's. Talk to Brian or Guff. Tell him mph boy sent you
724-547-2959

 

thanks, he knocked off some cash for me

 

JJ's is a GREAT place !

 

from what ive read on pittspeed a while back, they kick ***, i just forgot about em.

 

glad that worked out for you. Did you get everything you needed?

Heres another new site that was developed by a fellow thirdgenner dedicated to southwest PA but really a PA motorsports site in general. Its the new "pittspeed" basically. Feel free to also check it out. Mostly latemodel guys but a few thirdgens in there
http://www.swpamotorsports.com/phpBB3/index.php

 

Didn't get my parts yet, but I'm buyin em from him. Gotta wait and see what the body shop says about my frame.

I'm deff. Gonna join that site, as long as there's no tool bags like darkstar or what ever his name is.

 

haha well he is there....among other forum guys that can be annoying but most of them are good people

 

yeah, most of pittspeed was a buncha wanna be street racers when i was on there.

 

im 18 im from new york but i go to wvu, about an hour south of pittsburgh in morgantown, wv. i brought my 92 rs down with me so im definitely in for any meets! pm me or let me know of anything coming up

 

anyone in the area need a performance built 700r4 tranny? About 20-25K miles on it..only 1600 of it has been serious abuse from a 400whp 383 and 3 bottles of nitrous for about 520whp? Runs like a champ before it was pulled.

 

Thought you sold that already. Hmmm..... Eh, i'm sure somebody wants it.

 

i been trying on and off but cant get a buyer. Had a guy interested from FL but hasnt emailed me back. Trying to fund a cam swap for the TA or new tires for the maro...

 

i vote tires, 4th gen FTL!

 

If you still have it next time you're up here let me know. I don't NEEEEED another trans but..... Of course everytime you tell me about it i'm broke for the next month.lol

 

About a month and a half to car show season starts. Who's ready and are we actually going to have a meet this year? haha

 

im down. wexford starlight doesnt last long enough, any other big shows around like that?

 

i think wexford brings the big scene...every now and then Norwin/Irwin shopping center has a good weekend showing. usually 100 cars+ or so show up, sometimes only a few dozen. Thats on saturdays
