Nor-Cal Thirdgens on Myspace AND Facebook!

I thought I'd post a link to the group Steve (87tpi) made awhile ago for those in Nor-Cal who are on the 'ol Myspace and want to network on there as well.

Norcalthirdgen

Group URL: http://groups.myspace.com/httpNorcalthirdgencom

Feel free to add yourself there, and/or post your URL in this thread.


Thanks for creating the Facebook site Duane.

All aboard!

re: Nor-Cal Thirdgens on Myspace AND Facebook!

im in, but i dont actually have a third gen yet. =(
i really want one though.
end of summer im buying one.
18th birthday present to myself, woohoo!

(and im paying for every dime of it myself, no help from mommy and daddy)




EDIT: scratch that! i bought my 89 iroc 3 days ago, woot woot!
350 w/ aluminium heads, cam, smog legal headers, freeflow cat, and borla exhaust.
and then to get it moving its got a 6 SPEED MANUAL! along with a dual friction centerforce clutch.
and i bought it (like i said) 2 days before my 18th birthday, for 3 grand.

that was the selling point for me, it was already installed.
all the ad said was "350 6 speed" and since i had done my research i knew that was at least 4 grand i WOULDNT have to spend later, so i snatched it up.
all the other go fast parts were just gravy. i calculated it all with the receipts he had and whatnot, and (conservatively) its got at least 7 grand worth of parts in it. not including the cost of the car itself.
i still dont have it street legal because im a noob and havent been able to figure out what i need until recently, but now i know it just needs new injectors and a distributor, which after the regular tune up and all the fluid changes, will put me just under 500 dollars into it. HELL yea!



oh and i think failed to mention earlier, its also got a 9 bolt with professionally installed 3.73's. and 3 chips: stock, hyperjunk, and custom burnt race chip. and its got a high performance rebuild with high *** compression. i was getting 170 PSI on the compression check i just did. i think he said it was 10.5:1.

re: Nor-Cal Thirdgens on Myspace AND Facebook!

haha. yours was probably in a whole lot better condition than mine though.
the previous owner sure knew what he was buying, but he had no CLUE what he was doing. he took horrible car of that car. the interior is shot, and the whole drivetrain hasnt been well maintained. but, once again, it got me a great deal on the car so i dont care haha.

re: Nor-Cal Thirdgens on Myspace AND Facebook!

this is true. But if you have a 350 they're not too expensive. Interiors nickel and dime you to death. But it's whatever i'm not doing the interior for a few years. I couldn't care much less about cosmetics.

I will try to make it but it all depends on if my car decided to give me any more hassle. Hopefully that will be the last I have to do but you know how it it with 20 year old cars. Especially when some one has driven the **** out of them.

Unsticking this one. The FB page for Nor-Cal third gens is out there still and thriving.

User "mcsslover1987" on here is the owner of that page and will take care of any issues you have.

Re: Nor-Cal Thirdgens on Myspace AND Facebook!

No pleasing that guy, haha. It was a good suggestion by Marc and something I've been thinking about as well.

People don't post here because they just see the link and get to it. I will add the FB link to another sticky, the intro thread probably, but I'd suggest putting a link to FB in your signature if you wish to keep it growing in case this one drops to the bottom.
