  • My cars and their mods list

    First up is the GT:

    Engine:
    Gm Crate 3.1 from 2001 approx 36k miles currently
    FFP Pulley
    Ben's chip
    Plenum port matched to 61mm and slightly polished runners(HAD 62mm TB)
    2.5" downpipe and Catco cat to 2.25" pipe and Borla Turbo muffler ending with Borla twin intercooled angle cut tips
    Custom intake with aluminum heatshield
    FFP lower mount/dogbone(goes on this week)

    Trans: 3T40 swapped for Getrag 282
    PLANS: full rebuild with stage III clutch, Fidanza flywheel and LSD

    Suspension:
    Konis all around(fronts pulled to be factory rebuilt, GYB's in the mean time)
    Eibach springs
    Addco 25.4mm rear bar with poly bushings
    Fe7 HD active front 17MM swaybar conversion
    Poly control arm bushings
    Upper and Lower strut braces
    92+ Big brake upgrade
    Goodrich stainless steel brake lines
    17" Konig Holes in Carbon Gray 17.2lbs
    225/45 Pirelli P -Zero Nero

    Interior:
    94+ Z26 Garnet Red Seats front and rear
    Momo door sills, Momo dead pedal, Momo shift knob
    Custom E-brake with matching boot and shift boot
    Sparco REAL drill on pedals
    Autometer Sport Comp 3 3/4" tach
    Custom silver indiglo blue letter gauges with aluminum overlay
    Blue neon in footwell attached to curtousy light and neon over sub
    Airbag wheel gone in place of Momo Tuner wheel (install in a week)

    Pioneer P8600R head unit(old but good, soon to be replaced by 960MP)
    MbQuart 215.03 components custom mounted in factory kicks
    PPI A.300 amp (sub)
    R. Fosgate 4.6RF amp (4channel)
    JBL 6x9's
    JL 12W6 sub
    Dynomat floor, trunk, drivers door

    Exterior:
    Catz driving lights
    Factory stripe package removed (gay pink and purple stripe and GT) replaced with silver over black
    94+ Black filler panels
    Factory wing added and placed farther out by .5" to be more aggressive
    Sunroof with OEM GM bag in the trunk

    This is my first car that I bought when I was 16 and had 44k. It handles incredibly well, very nuetral with the bar swap leading to very nice oversteer. The Getrag transformed the car and traction can be a joke in 1st and 2nd even with 225's. It is in near show condition with only 2-3 dings which will get taken out. It is also incredibly solid and rattle free for a GM car compared to even newer lower mileage cars. It is probably at about a 15.4 at 86 as is, though I am planning a 3400 swap.

    My baby..

    95 Nissan 300Zx 2+2 super back 5spd 44k miles
    production numbers are very low on this car, might be 100 and change

    Engine:

    Stillen ECU with 7400rpm cutoff
    Stillen flywheel
    HKS exhuast with presilencers removed and straightpiped(13whp with presilencers, maybe 15w/o)
    Stillen intake

    THis summer, headers which show 23whp and pullies for a hopeful total of 270hp at the crank

    INterior:

    JDM illuminated aluminum door sills
    Navan shift knob
    Autometer dual pod A pillar cluster
    Autometer sport comp 2 1/4" volt and vacuum gauges
    Hand painted Z on steering wheel(me)

    Alpine Headunit and EQ
    MBQuart 215.03 components front and rear
    Alpine V12 amp
    PPI A.300 amp
    JL 10W0 x2

    Suspension and exterior:

    Catz driving lights
    18" Enkei for Stillen GTV's in Hyperblack
    245/40 Bridgestone Pole Position S03's
    Eibachs
    OEM Twin Turbo pedestal wing

    Some people think its slow because its not a TT. The TT does about 13.8-14.1 stock. The NA isnt fast but isnt slow. They were governed at 148 stock. Mine with mods and no gov is probably a 155mph car and with headers should be at 14.2...not fast at all but this car isnt about fast. It gets attention and looks and feels amazing.

      90 9000 Saab 9000 Turbo 98k miles

      Exterior:

      1987 Saab Catalog "airflow" factory body kit.

      Saab catalog "bridge" spoiler
      Saab Aero 16" wheels
      Catz driving lights

      Interior:

      Full interior swap from a 1996 Aero
      including Aero seats with memory which I got to work
      Aero Wood grain dash, Aero center console and updated 96+ switchgear

      Alpine top of the line CD head unit
      Kenwood EQ
      Q Series MbQuarts front and rear with competition crossovers

      Engine:

      3" downpiper
      2.5" catback
      Custom intake
      Viggen 20PSI BOV, kinda loud

      Car is a great daily. It has insane top end and would be a quick car if it wasnt an auto.

                    I am very happy to say I picked up a really nice GTU indy front air damn. Not only does it have no cracks but it was painted Medium garnet red which never came on a GTU. I will pick up the rest of the GFX to make a really confusing Beretta.

                    Its a 91 GT which has all GT badging removed.
                    It has a GTZ Fe7 suspension plus mods for fe7+ lol
                    It will have a full GTU/Indy GFX which was only around from 88-90, but a spoiler used from 90-96
                    Its a 3.1 5spd which of course you could not get in a GTU, and has the 91+ interior which didnt come in the INdy, and has 92+ brakes.
                    It has a 96 Z26 interior, garnet red Z seats were not available in 91, only gray.
                    I took out my airbag for a custom wheel, all 91+ cars have airbags, mine will be 88-90 flava now :P

                    So basically I am making my own Beretta :P

                              My daily driver got some love. So all 4 Ronal 16" wheels were bent. Dealership wanted $550 a piece. Also the Pirelli P7kSS's were about done(lasted 3 years) and were 205/50's.

                              So I found some nice cheap ADRs that fit the weird size of 4x108. I also got a deal on 225/45/17 Sumitommo HTR+ on tirerack.com(w-rated). I go to have them installed and guy came back puzzled. Turns out my 90 has 14mm lug bolts, used for only two years I came to find out after looking online. So they couldnt be bolted to the car.

                              So after a call to the seller he makes it right by sending me adapters that go from 14mm to 12mm.

                              Got them on today and I am rather happy. I just dont know if I prefer the stock full cap, or the tuner style caps. I had red tuner caps lying around to give an idea if I get silver ones.

                              The car has been outside for 4 weeks while my dad builds a canoe rack. It will get a full detail and I need to now paint the calipers black.

                              Which style of cap do you prefer?
