Early winter plans
 

lol... well just for *****, I wanna know what everyone plans on doing to their vehiculars over the winter. We need more threads, so this should create some conversation.

The last little things I plan on doing, before and while (if I can store it):

-clean the hell out of it if the weather cooperates
-Just bought my nose badge decal, put that on.
-Fix winshield wiper
-Fix foglights
-Fix exhaust/small leaks
-Nite shades on corners and tails (possibly side markers)

Around spring time
-Get diff and gears installed
-New hood
-New wheels

Well, considering my car is my DD still, winter doesnt change much. I tend to just do it when im at work and bored, or can actually make time to do it. I've got quite a few things I 'should' do to my car. Its more about money then time lol.

Planned Mods

-STB
-Paint the hood (partially)
-Clear coat taillights
-Turbo Kit
-Misc engine bay beauty mods
-Carbon fiber accents
-Install gauges (already have the gauges and pod, just too lazy)

Wnter plans:

1) Viper Remote start alarm
2) Nitrous
3) Sunoco Hood

I finally convinced my woman to get the nitrous kit for my christmas present. I also just bought the alarm. It looks like it is going to be a pain in the neck to install though. I am also going to be moving to Vegas this winter, so I hope that doesn't get in the way of any of the plans.

Getner I had no idea you lived in AZ... I swear you lived in WI or IL. haha.

Here's what's happening for sure:

Install nitrous kit
Install car alarm
Paint and install GFX
Tint Windows
Install custom nitrous panel with gauge
Change interior bulbs to red LED's
Install black Halo lights

Not 100%
Side Exhaust
Cam
Clutch
Sway Bars

ne idea of how yr. havin the nitrous setup? lke. where are ya puttin the bottle, and whts the panel lookin lke?

my plans
-hopefully paint (crosses fingers)
-fix all the little things that keep going wrong
-!wire mod
-any other free mods i can think of
-i asked my dad for an eclipse or somethin sub so if i get that i will be building a box and installing it
-finish the exhaust off

I'm putting the bottle in the rear hatch area. I have a remote bottle opener and purge kit already. I'm still going to buy a wideband 02, window switch, FPSS, a filter to put right in front of the nitrous selondoid(sp), and a good bottle heater and blanket. I'm only going to run a 100 shot though, I'd much rather play it safe.

Here's a quick photoshop of what the panel is going to look like that the guy is making me but it won't say ProjectCamaro on it.

I didn't say it in my first post but I'm going to detail the entire car inside and out as well including the engine bay and the undercarraige. I will never use it as my DD again so I want to keep the thing spotless as well as fix all the little problems it has as well.

:eek: even the undercarriage?! you got a lot of work ahead of you chad. good luck

I have five months so it's more than enough time. Plus I just picked up a garage heater today so I can spend all day in there.

Ok since I have to drive my car this winter Ill still be moddin it..

-Custom Paint
-Install SS hood
-Install Freedom Spoiler
-Install Rotors
-Headers/YPipe
-Lowerin Springs/Wheels
-New Badges
-Tint
-Clean Up the Halo and System install
-Fix any other little problems
-And do whatever pops in my head and I still have money for..:)

Well put, add that to mine as well.

thanks for saying garage heater lol. i had my 350 block sitting in front of the heater cause i pressure washed it and im drying it out. thats cool though chad. if my car was newer i would consider doing that to it.

so yr. still gonna use it to go to the strip with correct? and yr. gonna have a nice undercarrige? k.

It sucks I dont think Ill have a heated garage.

My dad really got my hopes up in saying I could use the Geo this winter, but he hasnt even done anything productive for the last two weeks... kinda pisses me off. Id go down and help him out more, but after I started at BB Ive been locked inside the nazi box and I dont think Ill be getting any time off worth taking.

Now IM gonna be dissapointed if I cant drive it... I really wanted to park it and be able to work on it when I go home... Then I gotta get my dad to get a heater haha.
