Yes it is Possible, but i dont advise it....
the car is designed for low humidity so everything is gonna start rusting, and i dont think its legal due to the emissions levels.
but if you are u should find a way to prevent the rust first.

check out www.Chevroletarabia.com for more info or if u need ne phone numbers.....( make sure ure ready for the phone bill though )

Re: lumina ss

They're not cheap or easy to import either..being right-hand drive.

Sorry..I wasn't sure what version of the car we were talking about here. I know there are right-hand drive versions out there. There are more countries than just the UK that have right hand drive.

he he...no there arent.....or are there the UK is the only place i know that they do things the wrong way round....lol..
besides...a 5.7L V8 in the UK...seriously.....no way
one of the main reasons it is sold in the mid east is becoz the gas is so cheap... ill tell u how cheap....its half the price of water which is 100 fils (34 Cents) to the litre and gas is 50 fils (17 cents) to the litre...and we dont have phone bills to pay...and electricity is $hit cheap........its really cheap to live here...the only thing that really costs money is Paintball .....its so expensive......back to the point.......i was wondering since there is nitrousoxide that can be fed into the engine...do u know if its possible to make my own tanks (Nitro methane) and feed it into the engine inthe same way as N20... coz nitro methane and methanol boost horsepower more than N2O does.......courtesy of my chemistry teacher (and im 15 so all this crap is 4 my cousins car)......thanx in advance.....

Re: lumina ss

The UK is not the only place..I can gaurantee that.

And nitro methane and methanol do boost more than N20, but they are very dangerous to work with...and it takes A LOT of either of them to get any power. N20 is cheaper, safer, and easier. As far as injecting it, you'd need a TB spacer with a hole drilled in it for an N20 nozzle.
