Welcome to turbobuick.com!

My first tip, would be to post in the CORRECT forum. The lounge in this case, rather than parts for sale.

Welcome
Check the feedback section before buying any parts, that's my advice. Don't let me scare you, just know who you are buying from.

Use the search feature and read, read, read before asking questions like "What's the biggest tire I can fit on my car without rubbing"?

Post your location.

That's my biggest advice for new members! It's a great group of friendly people here but sometimes we get a little cranky when we see the same question being asked for the 3rd time in a week. The search function is a great tool, and if you still can't find the answer you need, at the very least you can start your own thread and say "I DID search for this information but can't find it...".

Enjoy the forums!

Welcome. I second the read, read, read comment. These cars are bad-@ssed but oh so delicate in other ways. Make sure everything is in good shape and tuned right before you beat on them.

Thumbs up Welcome Pilgrim!
Glad to have you on board! Best advice you can receive, is read,read,and then read! It's really the only way to get to know and enjoy your vehicle and still have money to purchase the go-fast parts, instead of wasting the money on new headgaskets!
And don't be afraid to post your location, there may be other members close by that can help you out when you need it, or vice-versa.
Again, WELCOME!
