has anyone done it? i just picked up a set of the aftermarket repro C6 Z06 18x9.5" wheels to put on my 86 Camaro, and i thought maybe someone out there has put some of these on a Regal or GN.. they have a LOT of backspacing- 7.5"- so some thick adapters would be needed, but i bet they would look...

i haven't actually driven my car regularly for about 5 years. when i parked it, the trans worked fine- went into gear right away, shifted thru all gears, torque converter locked up when it was supposed to. it just leaked out of the front seal from time to time when it was parked, but never while...

saw a 1700 mile GNX being appraised on some silly show on tv last night... the owner said that one of the things that made the GNX special was that 547 were built, with the first 50 going to the FBI.. it's on tv, so it has to be true, right?

and what is the going rate these days? because i know of a guy on a FB page that has 8 sets of them that he wants to get rid of.

when did the background color get switched to the dead looking gray? is it supposed to represent a GN that's been sitting in the sun since 1987? what was so bad about the nice vivid black background that made everything pop? also, the yellow buttons with white writing: what's up with that?

they talked about the GN in general and the GNX specifically on Detroit Muscle this weekend.. didn't really learn much, other than that the GNX has cool gauges, special turbo, and a weird rear suspension.. figured i'd post this just because..

who picked the color scheme for the new site software?

saw a car sitting at Taco Bell in Alexandria, MN last night that had "743 GNX" on it's license plates... this means that in one region of the state, there are going to be 999 cars and trucks running around with "GNX" on their license plates for the next 7 years (that's how often they make you...

then watch this video: he got out ok, but dude could have also used a containment seat (he was whipping all over the place, and his arms and head damn near went out the window) and a full face helmet (stuff was bouncing off his face).. arm restrains are maybe not such a bad idea, either..

looking for a good trans and torque converter for my mostly stock 84 T Type.. i plan on getting the stock trans fixed and upgraded (blew out rear sprag at dragstrip and car has had a 307 olds trans in it since...) but i just want a good trans to slam into in and last me thru the summer and allow...

apparently someone at GM thinks they know a thing or two about what makes engine oils work... https://www.gmtraining.com/tmswebtree/techlink/images/issues/dec07/TLdec07e.html#story1

if anyone else will be there and if you see this car: flag me down and say hello.. even if we don't get along here, we might get along in the real world..

and it was interesting... the car started right up and settled into a smooth idle, apparently a half a tank of E50 gas stays good for a long, long time... then i topped off the atf (it leaks out around the front seal when parked- the floor of the storage unit is probably a superfund site now...)...

mulling the possibility of selling my car, and would like to get a ballpark estimate on what to ask for it. 84 T Type 72,000 miles non original engine- parts store reman that was installed in the early 90's some time.. no "proper" turbo parts in it, but it's a strong runner that has survived...

this is on the internet, so it has to be 100% factually true.. and it does back up some stuff i've been reading lately on the internet that also has to be 100% factually true... http://www.nonlintec.com/sprite/oil_myths.pdf

is there a different oil that can be used in the supercharger than the GM/AC Delco stuff from a dealer? i've been trying to find a cheaper equivalent alternative online for a couple of days, but haven't come up with anything certain... some say that you have to use the GM stuff, some say to just...

some brake stuff for my 86 Camaro. if it works out, i'll get the same stuff for the T Type eventually.. seems like a lot of brake for the $230 (including sales tax) that i paid for both sides.. i the fat guy (me) approves.. those LS1 F bodies sure had some beefy brake stuff on them...

i found me a pretty decent deal on an 84 Mustang that's set up with a mild 351W and a 5 speed that has an asking price of $2995.. i'm thinking about seeing if i can trade my 84 T Type for it.. on the one hand, i do like the Regal and it is a good cruiser.. plus it's surprisingly quick for such...

i'm not asking how to set it- i understand how that works.. i'm more curious about the timing curves- how much timing it has at idle and while cruising in overdrive at 60mph- things like that.. i'm asking because i got to wondering why my T Type only gets 17mpg when i drive it nice. i keep...

starting to think i really should get my stock trans put back together for my car so i can drive it in anger for the first time since '05 and see what the other weak links in the car are. i have the CK book and would like to do it myself, but i really don't want to screw something up and have to...
