My curb weight is a little bit more due to the fact that I have a dual 10" sub box in my trunk.

Engine Mods
Rebuilt 4T65E tranny with performance clutches, gears, shafts, and all new gaskets, Duralast Red Top Battery (More affordable version of Optimas Red Top Battery), Spectre Performance Cold Ait Intake Filter, Heat Resistant wrap on the intake tube(Removed: It was attracting more heat than repeling it), bosche platinum +4 spark plugs, throttle body screen removed(10-15% more air flow over stock), 180* drilled thermostat replaced the 192*-195* thermostat, new water pump, magnetic-tipped drain plug, and a new vented radiator cap was put on. Now Im running 10W-30 Mobil 1 Full-Synthetic motor oil. All I have to say is this stuff is better than any other oil out there, you can really feel the difference.

I just added Bosche Platinum Performance Spark Plug Wires and changed out the plugs again. I also added Prostop rotors, Hawk Ceramic non-dusting brake pads. Ill be adding a 12" Vibrant stainless steel resonator and 2 thrush welded chambered mufflers in the near future. I have them on back order through prostreetonline.

I also just added the GMPP front sway bar, rear sway bar, rear trailing arms, and a front tower brace. My front sway snapped on me when my tire blew on the highway. I decided it was a perfect time to upgrade so I did. I can definately feel a difference in the way the car handles and responds to turns.

I repainted the cross braces gloss black to match with the rest of the car. I also removed the front half of the stock air box for better air flow with the Spectre Performance Intake Filter.
