Sweet. Looks like my red 96 (118,000k). I hope it doesn't have as many problems as mine had. Good luck. I love the car too.

thanks for the compliments guys. later this summer, me and my buddy (he has a 97 camaro) are going to be adding a CAI and Flowmasters.

Should be good stuff.

BTW, what kind of problems did yours have?

Brakes all the way around and replaced the springs in the back.
Alternator crapped out. replaced
Radiator was plugged solid. Replaced thermostat and ect sensor.
Heater hose ruptured. replaced both
Replaced 2 coils (one was really cracked up) and plug wires.
Water pump leaked. replaced
Mass airflow sensor replaced (original was cracked).
Intake manifold leak.
Power steering leak.
Differential yoke leak.

I've had other work done too, tuneup... transmission service... fuel injectors ect...

Just got the car in December. Last 3 items still need fixing.

It's still a good car though.

Awesome car

I am biased cuz it's a clone of mine when i bought it... again like someone else said... hope urs doesn't have the problems mine did.....

Alternator kah put in -30 degree weather (brrrrr changing that sucka)
Fuel Pump (after about $1000 of parts searching for this solution)
Coils
Ignition module

But damn.... i still love it

Very Nice, I just got mine a little while ago..an '87 with only 70K miles..

RG501 · #11 05-23-2005, 03:40 PM

LT1MAN, its a v6. puts out 200hp stock. this summer im addin a KB CAI and Flowmaster cat-back exhaust. you think that'll add maybe 10hp?

RG501 · #12 05-23-2005, 04:06 PM
