2500 is too cheap you paid more than that to have bennie do your fuel pump
edit: you $500+ for the fuel pump job alone thats a big loss not even driving it

dang, i didn't know it was like $500 for a fuel pump.
what do you think he's going to get $3000 for that Eric? c'mon now.
i think 2-2500 is reasonable tops.

GTA's are high 14's low 15's with a TPI 350.
They are heavy cars and depending on the shape of this one, wouldn't count on 14's.
Never know though.

I'd follow up when Kerry returns, the car belongs to a friend of his that lost his wife to cancer. From what I could tell it was her car and it makes him sad seeing it.

only other thing i could think of is the injectors, before i ran 24's now i have 42's.

I think 14's are possible if you can find some traction. the gta doesn't have quite the low end the Iroc had, but it breaths alot better up top.
Spun way too easily on street tires.
I pulled a 15.0 stock, launching under 1000rpms.

my guess for those painted panels would be clear coat peeling when i saw it upon close inspection you can see the orignal color underneath,
its a relativly decent car, terrell has taken away all the problems
i dont see high 14's a problem with it
