wow, lots of questions. thanks for all the complements guys. i really appreciate it.
Chad, idk how to post big pictures. i have all of these in large form but idk how to post them.
i want to keep a fairly similar interior thats why im not painting any vents or speaker grills. i am going to however get some black leather T/A door panels down the road, cause mine looks ok and i can live with them for now but you can tell they are homemade.
I also plan on getting black racing seats, possibly the Jeg's ones or theres another set i was checking out. a 6 point cage for when 11's come into play, 5 point harnesses, new steering wheel, something nice by Grant or a cheapo Pilot one from autozone, just something a little cleaner. also two gauges in front of the shifter where the box thing is removed, it will look a lot better with gauges mounted there and they will prolly be nitrous pressure and fuel pressure... and im thinking black ZR1's, drag springs so yes it is going to be even taller than now, nittos for the back and a VFN black 4" cowl hood with some cool acents. possibly a hockey stripe and billet grille with a 69 Z-28 emblem, and maybe converting all emblems to 69 style emblems.
this is of coarse all after the LE1 head/cam swap, long tubes and y-pipe to current exhaust setup, and all the other goodies which should be good for an un-tuned mid 12 im thinking. then custom tuning and tweaking should see high 11's and then its a 100 shot on top of that
yes i took the box out in front of my shifter. since ive had the car i did 3 thigns to give it such an awesome feeling that what it was.
-took that box out
-adjusted rear hatch
-put a peice of velcro on the door where the window kept hitting it.
Car has almost no rattles now and its awesome. it feels so good going over bumps, i dont hear every rattle. only thing now is the passenger seat rattles a little cause one rear bolt is stripped, so i gotta fix that, and i have about 5 dollars worth of change in the ashtray and cupholder but i know what that is so it dont bother me.
I made a sheetmetal cover where the factory thing is, cut the airdamn and made a scoop. fairly easy, most of it is poprivets and zip strips. theres a bunch of pics of it on my cardomain, and yes i have a 2.75" - 3" adapter from the stock I pipe to a 3" bullet with a 3" turndown you can see it in the pic of the rear end 3rd from bottom. i absolutely love the sound and no-one knows WTF it is cause it has its own sound and it is pretty nice.
also, did anyone notice what i did with the extra rear inserts Brent Franker sent me? he gave me the standard yellow i asked for and sent me the Millenium yellowish ones also, cause we werent sure which would be the correct color. i said what the hell and put them on the airdam. looks cool when your comign towards the car.
