Re: 2014 car resolution
 

where's your car resolution Joey? You can put to make one pass on it in March 2014 and then leave her for 2 years with Anthony so he can make sure she says in tip top running condition for when I return........if you'd like ;)

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

my resolution is to sell/partout the thirdgen and get into another vehicle that can be enjoyed and not fixed weekly.

My plans are all new from suspension ! Tubular everything ! Hopefully that will fix my squeaks and pops and unwanted noises coming from the front end also some new strut towers and a ST brace ... Then a N2O kit (100 shot plate).... And try to get my suspension in the rear tuned for the track ... Along with lots of Ebl tuning

:D

oh stop! put a new flywheel and call it good. obviously that one was defective or something. yeah I know your rear end is gonna blow next and you know that too. and the person who would buy the car is going to know that too. you put too much time and work into the car to not get it completed.


sounds like a bunch of work! enjoy!

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

almost got my lift set up...til the last dang stud pulled out (wedge type) and now there's a hairline crack where the baseplate is. Looks to be running into the control joint (guess that's why they tell you not to place them near those things) . Oh well, guess i'll get to pouring a new slab eventually :( Tired of not having my car to play with

Baller status Jesse :thumbsup:

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Hey Vinny! Haha that's what I thought too every time I heard of somebody having one. Truth be told they're probably cheaper than most people think. It's really more about having the room in your garage than it is cost of the unit. Barely fit, and it's the short model. Went between the rafters on the one side, put a picture of that up later when I'm on the comp. Anyhoo, tell Mike hi if you still keep in touch. Ttyl

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

The same long list as last year. And the year before that and so on. Might at least start with battery relocation. Can't be hard. Can it?

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Mine is not too lofty a goal. I resolve to DRIVE my car this year, come hell or high water. Not just talk about it and throw more money into it.

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Install 140mph speedo with new cable, fix tach, modify Y pipe and fix some rust.

For 2014, looking to do Spohn tubular suspension front and rear w/tubular torque arm, plus LS1 brake kit up front.

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

looks like my 12k pound bend pak rack also although where the arms go on looks a different. we didnt like the mounting so we added metal on to extend so we didnt have to put so many studs close to eachother.

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Dang, all sorts of action going on in here!
Must be the generic title opening up to all thirdgen.org posters.

What are you going back to school for Terrell?
If you're local still I may be into a couple parts.
The end of a very long 3rd gen dream for you!

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Looking into a couple different things, but for starters get my Associates Degree. Im still local and definitely not the end, just a pause. :nod:

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Bendpak 9k, 113" model that has the safety cable running along the floor. No way I could have fit a standard 145" model in my garage. Okay though, this will be plenty good enough for me. Beats jack stands :)

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

okay yeah i have the 12k bendpak with the cables on the floor because previous shop roof wasn't high enough for overhead cables unfortunately.

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

For me, it's to get the Turbo and a Cam in the Iroc and also get some paint on her. Maybe I'll run the Nitrous for a while. Also to get my girl's Iroc running this month.

Re: 2014 car resolution
 

Gonna start a few small mods on my stock 5 speed LB9 G92 Iroc. Have SLP headers I recently picked up re-ceramic coated. Install headers with locking stage 8 bolts and Earl's reinforced ring header gasket. Purchase and install new 8mm Taylor wires with wire protectors. Wire up a heated o2 sensor in my header bung from a separate added mini fuse box. Install aluminum third gen GM driveshaft. New tires. Get a chip from Tuned Performance that will advance spark timing and what ever else he suggests that will free up some ponies. Install new console lid and replace plastic upper door moldings with the good ones I've had sitting in my room for about 2 years now lol. Change rear differential fluid. If I can get all that done by the end of 2014 I will be a happy camper. Then I will worry about saving for paint and interior.
