Q for you Turbo Guys - Page 6

phantom505 · 04-21-2004, 05:17 PM

Labor is sort of tough. I replaced lots of stuff say like heads when the LIM gasket was leaking, plus I've done things like buy and use a CAI then sell it etc. However, all told on what is installed and will be installed on my car to stay... about $7500. This includes the tranny.

PACE · 04-23-2004, 10:14 AM

02 GAGT - $22,000

teh ghey turbo - $7500

Headwork - $200

CAI - $100

realizing that you could have bought a focking 350-Z but instead you have a high 14 second Grand Am.....PRICELESS.

pulling up next to a 350Z nissan 285 horsepower 3.5 ltr v6 with a little ole grocery getter grand am gt 175 stock horsepower 3.4 ltr inferior v6 at a redlight, waiting for the green, then hitting the gas and smoking him past a 1/4 mile.....priceless!

Won't happen unless you're running low 14's or they're not racing. 350z's regularly hit mid/high 13's bone stock.

PACE · 04-23-2004, 10:25 AM

No doubt! Z's run high 13's with a good driver and you think you can beat one?? Plus any one that is willing to race is probably modded! But no, your're right, your 5 year old Grand am is probably faster.

I think I'll link your post to the 350 Z boards and see what those guys have to say about this......I'm sure they will come over and post their opinions.

$19,200 for '02 GAGT
$3000 for Turbo (not what I'm paying, btw)
$3800 for Transmission
$1200 for Headwork including springs

You are so wrong in so many ways.... THAT PRICE INCLUDED THE TRANSMISSION.

Someone who opens mouth and removes all doubt that he is an idiot...... very priceless.

BTW, where have you seen me run high 14's? I've NEVER been to the track with ANY car. Now what do you have to say smart ass?

i was talking about PACE...who is trying to flame Phantom about all the money he sunk into his grand am!!! give me a break......

by the way.... i have a high 14's car..... i run 350's all the time.... yeah they win... but not by much! they are running 13.8-13.9's stock, vette's on the other hand make me look stoopid.......and when i sprayed i could usually keep up!

i am sure phantom will not have problems with vette's! except for at the line!

PACE · 04-23-2004, 10:28 AM

YOU MAKE ALL THESE OUTRAGEOUS CLAIMS AND YOU HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN TO A TRACK????? EVER?????? LOL

My best time in a grand am is in my Sig......>Where is your's?? Mr. "Fastest GA in TX"

DORK!

phantom505 · 04-23-2004, 10:30 AM

Yep, that's right. Never been. So why are you spouting off and lying when you don't even need to?

I've never said anything but the truth. You however are a compulsive liar.

PontiacGT2K · 04-23-2004, 10:30 AM

Please....even when I was spraying I only beat one 350z, and that was an auto. They're quick fockin cars that are meant to race. A low 14 sec. car will not best most 350z's.

[edit] Pace: I love you.

FORTEEN3GT · 04-23-2004, 10:31 AM

ok... inb4dalok.....

Pace...cant you read my sig???!! duh...

I have been on this site since 2000. I have cred. here. You don't. What have I ever lied about? I have several 13 sec timeslips I can post if you'd like.

PontiacGT2K · 04-23-2004, 10:33 AM

I'm really trying not to snap off right now.

"ugly 350z"
"can't keep up with the mods..."

You're a ****ing idiot.

14.3 sucks!!!!!!!!........fock a 13.8 is slow too, thats why I quit building Grand Ams to be fast- because they fall apart before you are able to run decent times.

w3rd.

BTW: There are a few 10 sec. 350z's right now....I guess all motor grand am's are sorta comparable....considering how UGLY 350z's are.

PACE · 04-23-2004, 10:36 AM

Brandon, SPAZ and I set the bar in the high 13's and you girls are just jumping trying to reach it........good luck.

FORTEEN3GT · 04-23-2004, 10:36 AM

like everything..... opinion

i dont like z's....i would rather have the G35! it looks nicier and has the same engine!

13.whatever.... it is juice! how hard is it to run a 14.3 or 13.9 with juice?? what an accomplishment....... great for braggin rights...i respect those that do something different like the turbo or sc or heads or cam.... not stickin a big shot down a stock car!

PACE · 04-23-2004, 10:38 AM

My 2000 was not stock. But you weren't even around these parts when we were running these times so I guess you wouldn't know......NOOB

I've also been around since July of '00. His car was not stock when he sprayed it....it was one of the more modified ones on the boards.

The body lines on the G35 coupe and the 350z are exactly the same...minus the body kit. The G35 is AWD too, more drivetrain loss.
