Finally! (my new TA inside)

So here's the story..last summer i recieved my first trans am, it was a 1987 dark blue 5.0L and I loved it, then it got wrecked :frown: ..so now after 6 months of saving up money and having to cart around in my dad's focus I am the proud new owner of a 1995 5.7L Red Trans Am, and I couldn't be happier..just thought I'd share and I'll have some pics up tommorrow morning of the beast...

Congrats!!!!

have fun with it man!!!

have fun with it man!!!
Erdal...did you sell yours today?? :frown:

Erdal...did you sell yours today?? :frown:


no Luos. l have been calling the guy and he has been telling me that he couldnt find a good car to me yet! he says if l wanted an auto, he could give me one today but l want manual and thats why he says it is hard to find!!

THIS CAR HAS GOTTA GO LUOS!!!

l didnt post here but 2 days ago while l was driving car stopped suddenly and l opened the hood and l saw a big leak and then it started to spray antifriz (or something) and l had to tow the car and pay 100 bucks to replace hoses..:(

today l involved a little race with a cadillac (thos big ones like crown vic.) and l was like 100 mph and l felt something and right after it service engine soon light came up and l smelled burn!! code says that wire missfire.. or something like that.. l reseted it..

my point is, this car is gonna break down one day and l am not even gonna make any money on it!!!

AND I MADE MY MIND!! I AM AN F-BODY MAN AND I AM 100% GOING WITH T/A WS6 (probaby in a couple months)

Good choice Erdal. And good luck!!
Sounds like she has been nothing but problems for you.
I can only suggest staying light on the pedal until you can get rid of her.
I wish I knew the LT1 cars better...I would be of more help.

BTW...name is Curtis. Last name isn't Luos either. :lol: Just some random name I made up years ago.

Very nice to meeting you Curtis!!!

yep!! it has been nothing but problem to me!

l have been forcing myself to love mustangs but I CANT!!!! l just do not like how they look and l really do not like their interior center consoles!! and today my mechanic told me if l get a supercharged car the repair would cost more! also l am in-love with LS1 T/As. so l better get what l like!!

thank you for trying to help Curtis but do not worry, l will be your nightmare when l get the WS6 :lol:

ERDAL

I enjoy helping people if I can man.
No worries. :wink:

Supercharged cars aren't cheap. Factory charged or aftermarket. Either way...repairs can be pricey. Mostly because the damn thing is in the way. :lol:

No worries.

allrighty then.. you wanted this:wink: :lol:

l am gonna mod it with you (slowly) and then line up with you:lol: :lol:

Honestly, those LT1s are a pain...reverse cooling system, optispark, still has the number 8 valve seal issue that chevy V8s have had since the invention of rope. In any case, I loved mine, but it was a head ache if it wasn't maintained or beat on...I would drive real easy on it til its sold. If it is a misfire code, it may be that infamous number 8 cylinder...if you can ask your mechaninc which cylinder was setting the code or if it was multiple cylinders. If its number 8, I bet that valve seal is starting to leak and its fouling the spark plug. Naturally that plug is the hardest one to reach, so to take it out and clean it isn't feasable either. Just drive it easy and sell it fast!!! Good luck man.

and then line up with you:lol: :lol:
You best have one of three things.
Nitrous.
Boost.
Cubes.

Otherwise... :grinno:

Agreed Erdal.
Did you get the exact number of the code?

l always :worshippy you!!

l would be more happy to got beaten by you! to race with you even would be a big honour for me:)



Agreed Erdal.
Did you get the exact number of the code?

well he did in front of me but l really do not remember the code. but it was wire misfire and l asked to him what is that and he said, wires are side under the engine and that means your car does not run right. l said what do u mean and he said, your 2 cylinders wouldnt work and your car would run like 6 cylinder car.. he said, l am reseting now and drive it again, if the code light comes back again, then u gotta fix it, if the code wouldnt come again, then do not bother just get rid of it! i can ask and post here tomorrow

(ALSO I BEATED THE CADILLAC LIKE 20 CARS LENGTH AND THAN HE CAME HE SAID THAT HE WASNT RACING WITH ME AND I SAID REALLY AND THEN I SAID LETS GO AGAIN AND WE TOOK OF AGAIN EVEN I LET HIM GO LIKE 2 CARS AHEAD OF ME AND THEN I FLOORED IT, AND I MURDERED HIM AGAIN AND HE CAME AND HE SAID THAT HE WASNT RACING WITH ME AGAIN:D:D:D. ) HE FLOORED IT AND SPIN THE TIRES AND SPEED LIMIT WAS 45 AND WE WERE LIKE 100 MHP AND HE WASNT RACING WITH ME :lol: BTW HE WAS 16 YEAR OLD KID

Does P0300 sound right?

Does P0300 sound right?

l really have no idea!! damn, l cant remember!!! if l can reach him tomorrow (sunday) l will PM the code.

So here's the story..last summer i recieved my first trans am, it was a 1987 dark blue 5.0L and I loved it, then it got wrecked :frown: ..so now after 6 months of saving up money and having to cart around in my dad's focus I am the proud new owner of a 1995 5.7L Red Trans Am, and I couldn't be happier..just thought I'd share and I'll have some pics up tommorrow morning of the beast...

Congrats!!:grinyes:

Good luck with it. What are some other specs?? Mileage, condition, any mods, is it the bright red or the maroon color, etc? Post some pics maybe too!

I plan on getting an 01 or 02 WS6 dark blue or sunset orange in 4-6 months!

Allright well I took some shots this morning, but of course with my luck its snowing like crazy outside and i cant drive it right now, oh well..anyway some specs..as you all know its a 5.7L rated at 285hp and 325 torque@2400rpm's, its got 83,000 miles, its got some wear to interior and body but what do ya expect its 10 years old, its bright red and beautiful, it does have a custom dual exhaust but i dont know if its brand specific, but it does look and sound great, so thats about it and hopefully the snow will melt soon and the weather will warm up so i can drive it!

yeah so I've decided to call it the beast, i know, i know, its corny but thats all right I think it fits it pretty well, haha...

NICE. Now all it needs is the ram air hood scoop!! Make it look real mean!! Oh, it also needs some 5.0 badges on the fenders and a running horse logo.....come on man, that will add 20hp!!!!!
