Hey Guys! Thanks 4 All Info & Help
I am so :lala: with my '90 Firebird V6 3.1 TTops, Blk/Grey, 172k that I bought last month for 2k.
I sold the '92 113k, that had too many issues(tranny, just to name a few) to deal with for $1,200 same price I paid for it; and took that money and invested it into the '90.
As of today 11/23/04.; I have done the following:
New brakes, rotors, pulley, hood and hatch shocks, plugs, wires and cap, front end aligment.
Dyno Catback w/ Catco Cat.
CAI - Custom w/ K&N filter.
Moog - Front Suspension
15 inch Eagle Rims - 255R60 rear & 215 front
JVC CD Player
Viper Security - Remote Pager/Start and Engine Cuttoff
Plans:
New Springs, Shocks/Struts
Interior
Woofer w/ custom box to fit the rear & Amps
Repaint: Black w/ Metal Silver Flake and Siver Bird on Hood
Tail Blackouts.
Issues
The other day after having my exhaust put on my car started stalling while idling at the lights (I panicked); thinking it was the ICM; I cleaned it out and then ran it, then I noticed that my Custom CAI was loose so, I tightned it up and so far no more issues. I will get some electrical tape and tape aound connect points.
I am taking my first long trip with it this weekend (New York City - Richmond and back) and will have an oil change and engine treatment done before hitting the road. While I am down in Va. I will try and get my car dyno tested and post results. Will keep you posted as far as gas mileage.
Again,
I accept any and all sugguestions as to mods and appearance.
