a 1992 RS Camaro w/ the 25th Anniversary package (which i thought consisted on the stripes, where are they?) and a 3.8L in a RS, in 1992, i don't think so.

At first i hoped my eyes were fooling me, i say 92 and 3.8L and was hoping TTA, but then i saw RS and was like d@mn, so close... But is there any truth to this or what?

 

not to be mean, but why do we even bother posting these type of things

its obvious its BS whether by mistake or evil intent

 

The guy is a jackass. There is no 3.8 under the hood.

 

geese, i was just trying to clarify that it was bs, wanted to make sure that chevy never put a 3.8L in the 92, cuase i know that the tta was available in 92 with the buick 3.8L... you dont have to get rude...

 

WRONG....TTA IS 89

 

maybe it's just a typo other than that the car looks to be legit ( I had a 92 RS w/3.1 engine I believe).

 

heh , I've seen a car down here in news on wheels that said "95 camaro 3.5 litre V6 " ..heh ...

I almost was falling asleep the other night on the couch watching one of those "police in chases caught on tape " shows on tv , I woke up when I heard the announcer of the show say " police are in hot pursuit of this powerfull camaro FORMULA ...hehe

 

I could have sworn the tta was a 25th aniverary tribute... ohh well im only human...

 

Firebirds and Camaros have different anniversary years.

TTA is the 20th anniversary Firebird-1989

THere is a 25th Anniversary CAMARO in 92, but it's not a 3.8

 

why is that, they both were inytoduced in '67 ? ? ?

 

stuart they were intorduced in 69 you nimrod

 

The firebird was introduced in 1967 and the trans am in 1969. You have a nice car there stuart!

 

pay no attention to "1991tealRSt-topGuy" he seams to have a big bug up his @$$.

If I ever see him post something postive or polite I will ****.

 

Big words there buddy.
Sure some days he can be mean in his post but so can everyone else. But this post is as stupid as they come. Its probably a typo and you guys are chewing this guy out, over something the editors of autotrader missed.

On a scale of 1-Stupid this post rests at mayonaze.

 

the guy probably saw an ad for a 95+ camaro that said 3.8L V6 and thought that they had the same engine....or maybe it had a 3.8L Buick 3800 Series engine swapped in? (definatly not the turbo GN/TTA 3.8L because those never had a 5 speed tranny....heh, I've been reading )

 

That guy was smoking crack. Chevy didnt do anything big to the V6's till 93 when they went to a bigger V6 w/ the 3.4L . Then they went up too the 3.8L V6. But the biggest 3rd gen V6 you could get was the 3.1L . Which I have in mine for now. I m building a 3.4 and then swapping it in my RS.

 

geez guys chill the hell out...the guy just wanted some clarification that's all...


That ad was one of three things

A)Typo
2)Swapped in a 3.8(doubtful)
3)TOTAL BS

 

same dude, i think teal is on a power trip with his moderator status. probably got bullied in school or somthing.

 

yeah some power trip, i get to moderator a whole 24 posts in my forum


woo hoo!!!!!! CANT YA FEEL THE POWER!!!!!?

i call them like i see them, and if YOU cant accept that, thats YOUR problem, not everyone elses on the forum

 

yeah, but it is possible to use a 5 speed with the turbo 3.8, so it could be custom

 

see the post above this

its gonna make you ****

 

anyone that's retarded enough to put a manual, let along a T5 behind a turbo 3.8 doesn't deserve a fbody or a turbo 3.8 engine....

 

if thats directed at me........i said it COULD be done, not nesacerrily that it SHOULD be done

 

hey 91teal guy ur from NJ where the slime is? ur part of that slime and you need to get ur facts straight

 

oh really.................................why dont you just keep your mouth shut

it seems you dont offer anything intellegent to say

why waste space with your garbage??

 

ohhhhhhhhhhhh scary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm scared!!!!!! stop!!!

 

wait a mintue

what facts did I post that were incorrect?


to clarify this mess, i wanted stuart to realize that there is alot of BS posted on the web

i wasnt trying to insult stuart, i mearily tried to say that there is better stuff that this server's space can be used for

 

nope wasn't directed at you..just stating in general that if someone went through the trouble time and $ i'd laugh at them cause they'd still be running a good second slower than an auto

 

ok cool tony

only reason i thought it might have been is because this seems like an attack 1991tealRSt-topGuy post lol

honestly, i dont know squat about turbos or s/c, except the golden rule not to use a manual tranny with a turbo because of turbo lag

must be cool to have a TTA motor................

 

its not so much lag on an import motor that revs to 7K, but the turbo buick uses engine load to build boost and is much like a TPI motor..makes power up until like 5200 rpms, its a torque monster..not a good canidate for a manual...a blow-off valve would help retain some boost but its still not worth it


as far as having the motor yeah its cool, but ughh i kinda blew up my trans behind the new power new trans should be here this week

 

sounds cool except for blowing your tranny.............

i'm debating what to do with my Z28.......whether i want to convert it to TPI or keep it carbed

i hear alot of cons about TPI

like originally it was only designed for a 305 so 383's and bigger cant really be fed well enough with it

it can be expensive to convert

everytime you want full potential after a major mod you need to write a new PROM

plus all the sensors and what not that it needs to operate

 

there are ALWAYS pro's and con's to a big swap like that...just depends if the pro's outweigh the con's in your mind..carb's are no doubt less expensive which is a huge factor...$ is a huge factor in everything

 

yeah....the cost............

its not even that as much, but as having to deal with the friggin ECM not being able to recognize the major mods (cam, heads, etc)

 

Thanks for the info and the compliment. Thats the info i wanted. If I knew what I was going to start, i wouldn't have posted.

Thanks to those of you that actually gave me the info i wanted.

 

Kids

91 tealrs....nice example you set as a moderator

 

Make a post about a guy on crack, next thing you know, it sounds like everyone else is on crack too. I know the stuff is addictive but this is ridiculous! ( I CRACK myself up!)

 

Number 1. This post is getting locked. I think the point's been covered.

Number 2. I do not see what you guys have against 91 RS Teal Top.

Number 3. Moderators are just normal users too.

Number 4. He's moderator of a Regional Section...so consider his title merely figurative. His moderator duties consist of...logging in. That's about it.

Number 5. From now on..any bashing against ANY user that I see I will personally edit your post and leave it blank. Consider that your warning.


Thanks.
