wife had a 06 charger but hated the rear wheel drive so traded it for a 09 jeep so at least she could get around in the winter.
Dad gave me a 57 chevy truck that needs lots of work to it but hope to eventually drop a 427 in it just need to get some ambition to work on the damn thing sometime. Would really be nice because wife did research on Aquarius birth signed people and they are common for having a scar on some part of their face and low and behold this truck gave me mine when i was 5 a drunk driver hit me and my dad in it and my seatbelt gave way letting me slam my head into the dash giving me a scar across the top of my nose ridge so I already have a little of my blood in the machine. Other than that trying to get my wife to either let me buy a Vrod Corvette or a new camaro

@Fett ... lol

@Jake That would be a pretty cool project. Lots of work. You should make like a 3 year plan and just work on getting things done here and there. When I settle into a house again Im getting a big ass garage so I can have projects like that and have my buddies over to drink beer while doing it

I Used to have a 1999 Acura Integra and had a turbo kit in it. Sold it and now have a 2005 Mazda Rx-8 with Agency Power exhaust on it.

[APAT]

ooooo. Nice Shocker I want pics.

@ Jake I watched The Expendables(not good) last night and Stallone's ride was the highlight of the movie. Its a 55' Ford but its style is just bad ass. Here's some inspiration for your ride.

Damn! I am speechless.

Ok here we go 67 400 bored .030 TRW piston line bored and honed, deck the block, with big valve heads open CC shaved .030 which gives me 10.5 compression ratio. Crane Cam 2600 to 6500 RPM good mid range with big push rods and roller rocker. A daul plane intake with 2 650 Edelbrock carbs. Hooker headers alum coat with a set of Supertrap for a great sound.400 turbo with all fairbanks guts with shift kit and a 2500 stall alum drive shaft turn a 4.11 rearend with Ladderbars and center link and coil over shocks.
This was a body off restoration every part was chromed or painted, I mean everything. Its a base coat clear coat candy apple red color

I done everything myself except for paint the body and the interior. Alot of hrs
believe me, these are older pic. with a single carb and leaf springs

[APAT]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh Yeeeaaaaahhhh! I was wondering when KG would bring out the big dog :D Such a nice ride man. I really am jealous of your ride man. A lot of hard work put into that bad boy. Have you ever put it on a dyno? Ran a 1/8 or 1/4 mile? Think you'll ever do another one? I kinda hope not cause we'll never see your ass online anymore ;)

[k1gibson]

No Apat never race it except for couple street races smoked a few mustang's. Never been on a dyno but the that motor stock is 360hp so I guess a easy 425hp. Working in automotive machine shop for couple of yrs has its benefits :) there's more pic on pg 2

Beautiful KG, Absolutely Beautiful. Me and a buddy of mine have been working on a project.

He used to have a 1995 Honda Accord with an H22 L4 motor. Well this wasn't any typical H22 motor. It was imported from Japan. Every electronic and hard part on that motor is straight Denso, KMS, and NGK. Multi-port fuel injection and the best of all it had V-tec. And boy she is quick, V-tec kicks in at 3200 RPM's in second gear.

Well to make a long story short. We did the impossible. We had to fuck with the firewall where the engine and tranny bolt up but we got it to work. We took that H22 Honda motor, and put it into a 1997 Nissan 240SX (oh yeah, and she has the fox body) Which 97 was the last year for the fox body.

Your probably thinkin how? I know it sounds impossible but it worked, I need to get pics and post them. She is a real peice of art and an amazing machine.

We put her on a dyno test and a quarter mile run down in Daytona.. We swapped the limited slipped differential for Posi-trac. Re-mounted the ebrake on the shifter for ease of access (Yeah shes ment for drifting). Greddy intercooling setup, Denso ignition, a TSI extreme turbo kit, K&N intake system, with a 4-2-1 pipe ceramic coated DC headers, and a Flowmaster Exhuast system. She runs 11.1 Compression with anywhere from 12-22 lbs of boost and her Quarter mile was 11.23 seconds. Sittin on 16in borja rims with about 298HP. She is no joke, you can't once ever think you have control of that car because she will deffinately let you know who is boss.

And KG, Mustangs are garbage, I say that from the bottom of my heart, No disrespect ment to anyone here, but I just cannot stand them, I work with cars everyday and I can tell you one think, I see more mustangs than I do saturns. And thats bad because saturns are notorious for oil getting into the spark plug cylinders.

I also work at Advance auto parts and I tell you its deffinately a benift.

[APAT]

Holy shit Reaver! That is a serious little Nissan. Freaken 11.23 1/4 mile! WOW. I work with a guy who has a 92 i believe and he's always whipping that thing around corners on dry pavement. He actually stopped traffic when he drifted a left hand turn across traffic to get on an on ramp. They though he was out of control but you're right those things are made to go sideways... lol

p.s. I agree with your opinion of Mustangs. I had a 91' Dodge Daytona Shelby for a while and beat down my fair share of em too. The SVT Cobra's are the exception tho. Those baby's are a different breed of stang. 03' 04' in particular are really pretty bad ass cars. But there's not too many of those out there

[Reaver]

Yeah bro she was something serious, the custom made shifter gives you a little more control over the car but shes nasty.

If I had to pick any type of mustang, it would have to be the 03 Saleen S281. They had alot of balls and they deffinately responded to the throttle. Although they had problems with the idle air parts and the ignition, but what ford doesn't?

Since it seems like some of you guys know a bit more about cars than I do. What kind of HP would I gain from a high performance catalytic on my sierra? I'm thinking the stock one is bad *cough* *cough*. I listed the other little things I've done to it so far on a previous post

My guess would by 5 to 7 hp something you couldn't noticed.The thing to do is get rid of the catalytic depending on were you live and put really daul exhaust which can still cost alot, those converter are expense anyway. There's other things you can do depending on what motor you have to get more hp cheaper I think.

I couldn't have said it better myself KG. He is right apat. I took that cat off of my jeep only because she caught my floor board and chassis on fire. Yeah, she was exceeding 3000 Degrees. If anything she burned right through at about 36. I cut that bitch off, replaced the exhaust manifold (it had a pretty good crack down where it meets the flange) and replaced it with a higher performance Weiand manifold. Ran duel exhuast out the back, and she has a lil more balls to her and I saved alot more on gas.
