yeah I have to put my chevy emblem back on though, cuz apparently it was covering up that dent in the hood, lol.

i dont know what would look better....the dent or the chevy emblem. i think the chevy emblem that came on the car is hidious. i would try to find a solid one to put on instead of the stock one, and maybe paint it white. but thats just my opinion. but other than the dent i would say your car is looking sweet and it probly sounds sweet too with that turbo

Paint it white like that? I actually like the way that looks... going with the whole red/white theme...inside and out!
P.S.
I scrape everywhere I go... imagine even a 1" drop... would scrape twice as much... scraping + fiberglass body kit = bad news bears. lol

that little dent is the least of his worries... i got a feeling he's going to be having boost leaks out his ass or something else going wrong.

First thing I thought as well but think about it...at least the dent will be gone.

I could be a cam whore right now....
I'm at home for the evening for a summer job interview in the morning, and it was 75 today and sunny, and..... my car remaind in the garage covered. I'll have some more updated for you guys later this week.
If i get this job, I am going to be making enough to get the caddy pearl white paint job, or arctic white and boost my car by spring of next year. :)

congrats cody... I was getting tired of being the only boosted ohv car on the forum, lol...

i already have my turbo sitten around as a paper weight. Couldn't pass up the deal i saw. Your going to be the only boosted one for prolly a good year. I NEED to get my entire car repainted still, and even before that i'm loosing the CF fenders which i already have a buyer for. But yoda fenders are a pretty penny. Next summer tho, i'll be right there.

well it's hard to calculate right away cuz my old cluster has 96,000 miles on it, and the z24 one that I put in has 141,000 on it... but now it reads 145 and some odd miles so I figure I just broke the 100,000 mark... it's sorta of odometer fraud... just in the wrong direction, lol

ouch, turbo charging a car with that many miles on the stock engine....:(
I hope your ready for some problems to start occurring. I thought you had by far less than that.
I'm at 59,355 miles on the stock engine for a 99

if I blow it up then I get to swap a ecotech or 3800 in it! lol. Hey what weight oil do they use in your shop turbo 2.2? I have full syn 10W30.. is that okay?
Classicrocjunkie
04-23-2007, 11:14 PM
Royal Purple 5w30 in the sunfire when she was running. When we break in the new engine, regular motor oil for a few couple thousand miles. The fully built 3100 seeing 150 shot of nitrous in the grand prix GT see's royal Purple "race 41"
Derk_eliso
04-24-2007, 09:47 AM
so what's the dif between 5w30 and 10w30... something about the weight but I dunno... cuz right now it's 5w30, i bought it by acident.. cuz I was going to get the 10w30.. you think that would hurt the car?...well not really the car... the turbo..
Classicrocjunkie
04-24-2007, 09:56 PM
10w30 this time of year you'll be fine. The difference is the viscosity between the 5w and 10w. Its all 30 weight oil.
