Ive had it for about to weeks, and this car owns 95% of anything on the street. I went heard to head aginst the new charger SRT-8 and he never pulled on me, it was neck and neck, not bad considering it pumps out 425 and im only at 300 stock.:) Ill try to get some more pics.

What u guys think?

Looks REALLY good for a 98'.
V8 I assume?

man, shes quite a beaut. keep postin pics

Looks very similiar to my friends car....nice upgrade. Have fun with the never ending line of parts for that LS1.

weak. :p

i got rid of one to get a civic lol same year and all looked just like yours red and all just didnt have t-tops. GAS SUCKS. speacially cause you wanna floor it all of the time. when you do the fornt end yanks up hard too :) but i like my vic better. and your flip up lights will need to be adjusted every hmmmmmm 20 seconds after 100,000k actually alot needs to be adjusted every 20 seconds after 100,000k even if you drive it normal, but its domestic so yeah. but i loved the leather interior though. looks clean as hell too, you would be surprised at how much @ss you will pull with that. just take US 40 through Indiana and you will bang tons of chicks lol i know cause i used to live there hahahahaha

Thanx guys!! Yea its a 5.7 ls1 v8, And i know the gaps are horriable lol. There 18's so i just got ta drop it and it should look better. I would like to do a cam swap in the near future but i have to save up for other things first. These cars are notorious for snaping the rears so im goin ta do a 9". But other than that just cat back is all thats done to it.

I didnt make to much of a drop in MPG's. I use to get bout 34 or so now i get bout 19-21 on the city, if i go on the highway i should get 26-28, mostly cause of the 6th gear. But not bad considering I almost tripled my hp.

looks nice man. i would love to have power

A lot of my friends have those (and camaros/mustangs alike) so naturally I get a lot of shit since I have the 4cyl, even though I whoop their asses :D But yeah, I have a lot of respect for the car and are definatly fun to drive...not in turns though, ha. And you cannot beat the power you can get with simple mods.

looks nice, not not a trans am/firebird man

:lol:

you have to take those pics down cause every time i look at them i want my old car back lol

Danm man, What u got in the vic to beat the almighty LS1 lol. I know its very easy to make some 4cly power, its just expensive lol. I think i saw a while back a vic that had a k20 turboed and ran like an 11.5, thats impressive. I have respect for all cars it sont matter what they are.


Lol. why did you get rid of it?

I drive a slightly modded STi. ;)

Nice car man,i like the t-roofs
your like me had to go buy something with a v8 that has some balls behind it.
I just finished selling my civic a few month's ago. I miss the gas mileage the civic got but i love the power of the v8.

wow looks brand new!

Thanx. I know what you mean I used to own an 69 chevy and sold that for the vic then had to have to power again. What did u get?

Thanx. I learned a ton on detailing a car, that i wish i would of learned a long time ago. U really appriciat a car a ton more when u spend 10 hours washing, waxing ect.

BTW if ya want ur car to shine use the NXT liquid wax, It freakin owns!!

nice car. I always liked the old transam's.

Beautiful car, I always wanted one for myself.

it was when the gas prices were going up and my dad wanted to get me a brand new car for high school grad. in 04 so he got me an 04 lol i love it.

Looks good, bet its a beast :)

I took the alternate route, kept my 4cyl. car and just got a bike, 4 cylinders and faster than most any car on the road :D

lol. I looked into a bike, specially the r6, but the death rate is just too high in arizona.

other innjuries too. like the piston coming threw the tank and cutting your arm off, saw it.

Anyday!

PS Good luck turning :giggle:

NICE UPGRADE .... but lets make a bet whose car will last longer ...lol ....japanese car or american cars .. :rockon: :rofl: ...but , get me wrong i like ur new whip....

all i can say is one thing...Flowmasters. Get rid of the 2 or 3 cat's u have and put a straight through 40 series on it and it will roar like the beast it is! nice purchase

Lol its funny cause im willing to make that bet with you. Everone allways has that assumption that American cars are pieces of crap. The board im on right now ls1tech.com has at least 1 menber that i know of that has 205,000 miles on his z28. And there are Thousands that have well over 100,000 on them. The LS1 + t-56 is one of, if not the most efficient combo ever for a v8 car. thats right i said EVER!! What other V8 gets 21 city, and 28 highway MPG and can still go to the track and run a 12? lol I will admit that i might have a couple supid little shit to fix on it, but nothing i havent had with my honda. :)

Its alright, theres always a few that for some reason hate american muscle. Maybe its because while you trying to squeeze as much boost as you can out of you car, ive done a head and cam swap and am still faster and still N/A.:lol: Just remember Real cars dont power the front wheels, They lift em.:giggle:

X2....

but if there was ever a year the Firebird was created good...it is your year. All of the other models are so dam ugly :P
one of my good high school friends has a 400hp n/a firebird but its fugly so consider yourself lucky
