Would the 275/50/15 fit w/out a spacer? I'm assuming it would becuase of the narrower wheel. Also, what is the preferred size for the fronts on a 15x7" wheel for street use? I prefer a smaller OD tire, but dont know how to size it.

If they put it back to the electric power master that I had. I wish Disco-STU had never talked me into that. It was a brand new unit and he "claimed" that it went bad while at his shop and talked me into a hydro-boots conversion that has never ran right. He had never done it before and dont...

Killed my stock power-plant - or so it appears. I do not plan on putting it on a track, but would love to give the motor some more balls, as long as reliability and durability is the main focus. Your recommendations are appreciated greatly! Thanks!

Who's the most reputable for reliable street engines that I can have some fun w/if I ever wanted to put on the track? Not looking for a 10 second race car to notch the frame and put a cage in, just a rebuild with befier components that will last and last and last. Thanks!

Found some local American Racing Torque Thrust M wheels that I can roll on till I get my custom Budniks. Fronts are 8 inches wide with 4.5" BS. Rears are 9 inches wide with a 5" BS. (Offset is 0 on both front and rear) They have the proper 5x120.65 bolt pattern. What I need to know...

I just cant stand driving autos, and considering (based on what history I remember of this car) the auto kept it out of the racing series.. I'd like to have mine swapped. I dont have the time, the place, or the tools so I'm going to have to pay someone to do it. If you know anyone in Austin...

Just wondering if anyone here had done it. I hate automatic transmissions, and would love nothing more than to drop my GN down some to make it handle better and bang gears.

Just putting a feeler out there in-case anyone was interested. I figure if we plan it a few weeks ahead of time we can get a good turnout, anyone welcome, don't have to live here, or be a native Texan. Hell, even if someone didn't have a GN but wanted to come out I'd be happy to let them ride...

Got the bug for a manual gearbox Vette for a twin-turbo project to run at the Texas Mile. My car is clean and daily driver reliable... and would be interested in a trade for a vette, will pay cash difference if value inequity exists. I'm not sure what to sell my car for, considering all the...

Is this even possible? Also, what about adding a resonator and moving back to a single high-flow muffler like OEM near the rear end to reduce in-cabin noise? Thanks guys!

Pics of it here, all you need to do is put your cassette knobs on it. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/car-audio/329171-pics-my-install.html Upgrading to a McIntosh in-dash CD player, or an Alpine w/iPod controls, not sure yet. I'll take $275 shipped for it, paypal preferred.

I didn't expect it to run so smooth, and make so much power. My car ran, but was plagued with all sorts of little bugs and he went through it stem-to-stern and fixed everything, moding it with alky/chip/injectors and we are running 25psi out of a car that gets 25mpg on the road and idles smooth...

Disco_STU is doing all the basic perf mods.. chip/injectors/fuel pump/hotwire/power plate/FP reg/boost controller. I cant wait to drive this thing, it was limping when I got it to him w/a bad fuel pump and a boost solenoid problem.

The thread I posted had them buried a few pages down, so I've gotten a couple of requests to just put up a new post with them upfront. Components used are as follows: * 91 Cyclone CD player * Alpine 5 channel amp * Audio Control DQL-8 1/3rd octave EQ/x-over * Image Dynamics comp 2 full...

I've commissioned him to do the usual: * Chip/injectors/FP reg/pump/pump HW * alky * big mouth new style CA intake * boost controll * power plate. down-pipe, valve-springs are on the table for discussion also as I'm starting to get the feeling doing the rest of it, and not this, is a...

Are spindles needed?

Seems like a dream built too me, get a late 70's 930 turbo body kit, but the radiator up front and the inter-cooler in the tail, probably lighter than factory and a good build would make it terrifying on a track. 911 Conversion Pictures

Sorry if this is a dumb noob question, however I'm having difficulty finding this online.

Alpine head unit w/iPod controll and time-aligned crossovers with real time parametric self learning equalizer. 5-channel Soundstream high-current reference amplifier mated to the following: High pass to the waveguides around 500hz (where humans perceive left/right stereo separation)...

Going to put my mid-bass drivers in custom kick-panels, that being said would anyone be interested in trading your plain ones for mine? I thought about putting a 6/4/tweeter setup, but even then I could not use the 5.25" cutout, so I'm going to use a set of Image Dynamics horn-loaded...
