Bought: Jul, 2002
First off ill tell you alittle about the condition i got the car in the car was baddly rusted on the rear quarters, the front bumper was in a hurt , the trans was dead after 2 road course events and the brakes were toast. Before that even the car had bad luck in the parking lot a walmart and wile i was shopping it got taken out by a van on the drivers rear quarter and pushed it into a truck screwing up the front pretty good on my car( thank goodness the bumper cover hides it well ). Apon going to collage for autobody i decided to make this my project to give it a new life.

aye brah, dont drop a 3.8 in there. keep the LQ1!!! i know where you can get lots of parts for it!!! check these sites, you wont be disappointed. for a continued ignition upgrde you can get Taylor Spiro Pro series 8mm plug wires, and NGK Iridium IX plugs, get registered to www.60degreev6.com and when you do get ahold of a guy named GPChris ask him about a SS catless down pipe, i think he does it for 200 bucks. Now these other sites you see below, OEM can get you a set of custom headers for a naturally aspirated or if you choose a set for turbo. costing i believe 1,150 they have already in stock a catback exhaust at 2.5" or a full 3" SS, full RACE suspesion for the W-bodies from KONI, polyurethane dog bone bushing, strut tower bars EGR block off plates... Wot tech will get you a chip that will turn off the EGR supply you with valve springs valve shims ARP bolts lifters and a crank scraper. MAS FUERTE!!!!
