I have to agree with Joe. Nice welcome guys. Look the guy has some big plans ahead of him and even though i may not agree with some (or most for that matter ) its his car and he should do what he wants. Lambo doors on a 3rd gen, never seen it before, would be cool if someone pulled it off. 20" aren't my cup of tea but can look good if done right. I'm all for the targa if it can be done without ruining that car. I say good luck my friend. Welcome to the family.

BTW - I'm getting real sick of hearing the 20" lowers performance line. Look, some people just dont care that much about performance alright? You can't run 120 miles an hour 24/7.

he says he's changing the engine that usually tells me performance is on his mind.Someone asks what we think about planned mods I'm going to tell my opinion. If we don't tell tehm what we think later when we make fun of their car after finding it on car domain they may get upset.Being different isn't always good if it's bad taste. The targa top I said it ruins the structural integrity of the car, there is no way to fix it except a roll cage (I didn't say that part, but you get my point) 20's are for drug dealers (they are the only ones I see with them around here at least wanna be drug dealers)lambo doors are not a looks thing (I don't care what anyone says if you have to have your doors open to show it, it's not a looks thing unless you plan to park your car everywhere with the doors open, and never drive)

Look, i agree wth most all you just said Steve, but my main point was that this was kind of a sh itty welcome for a new member. Let me re-itterate...

Targga tops - looks awsome IF you dont ruin the car by doing it.

20" Wheels - they can look good IF done right. Case in point -

Lambo doors - i dont like. But if can be done to a 3rd gen and he likes it then go for it. A lot of what we do to our cars for looks you dont see a lot. Ask anyone who has chromed an engine compartment or spent a few grand on a stereo in the trunk. Tell me these people drive around with the trunk and hoods open all the time, right?

Performance aspect. Steve, you shoudl know as well as any of us that even the top o' the line 350s in the 3rd ges were underpowered anyway. An engine sawp may just be an attempt to make the car more than stock. Speshally if he wants to run 20s. Give the kid a break Steve. You're gettng as bad as those ****** on CZ28.com.

I have to disagree with you here arch- Lambo doors ARE a looks thing. Here is the perfect example. What about those people, myself included that try to make their engine look good? I know I don't drive around with my hood off, nor do I open my hood everywhere I go. I save it for those times when I either race someone or someone wants to see what it looks like. I could have made the same power without takin the time to polish the intake, paint other parts of the motor to look better.

There is a Corvette around here with the lambo style doors and at every show he has them open. Whats the point of doin it if you're not going to show it off? I will admit its not really my style, but I think it does look kinda cool. Not to mention he gets a lot of attention with them.

And there are also those people who want a couple more ponies and want to look good as well. Thats why you can do motor work and put big rims. And no, not everyone who has 20+" rims on their vehicle is a drug dealer. Thats profiling, and not fair to those who aren't drug dealers. I know you are going to say if you don't want to be called one then don't look like one too..but I will say this and be done-

Around here there is talk that people from down south are sodomistic pedifiles who do nothing but inbreed, wear flannel, watch nascar, drink cheap-*** beer and talk about their how they clean their tooth. Not really fair is it?

I'm with Grant here, we didn't give this guy the welcome he deserved. If I was him I'd personally think this was a crappy forum and wouldn't return but I know better and I know as a whole the people here are much more accepting of people's different opinons than any other forum out there and I like that.
If he want's a show car that's fine, if he want's an all out race car that's fine, if he want's something in the middle that's fine to. I understand there was some misunderstanding's and that's fine but I think we should give him a better welcome.
I for one am happy you've decided to join here and I wish you nothing but the best with your car.

I don't know about the lambo door just yet but just a thougnt of an idea where no one had.... I proabaly would just stick with 18" rims as orginal thought. By the way I do own another car it's a 90 honda acoord accord with kit and 17" OZ racing wheels

I personally like the lambo doors. There's almost nothing else you can do to set your car apart with one modification. There was a company that made an FBody kit, give me a couple days to see if I can find it.
