I see. Any performance to go with the appearance overhaul?

Last I remember, your GA had just the SC/T kit, nothing more.

i rebuilt the motor 2 yrs ago with ported heads and maifolds, high flow cat and downpipe, catback with flowmaster 80's, CAI, tuned pcm. nothin too drastic.

tinted windows, tinted tails, tinted reverse lights, tinted fogs... gutter guard grills, removed entire a/c system including evaporator from heater box.. removed cruise control, disable DRL's, and fogs with high beam mod...
the freshly built trans decided it wud stop working again, prob just a valve body, but in process of doing the 6spd swap. (i no, i no... not worth it...) but with the time, money, and my refusal to part ways with it its worth it to me...
so far iv been repairing body and structual parts of the shell (rear bumper retaining side bracket, front and rear impact bar, and various other repairs. stripped all kinds of sound dampening material out, truck bed lined the interior up to mid pillar.
eventually want to get a spare block to start a full motor build up. prob goin turbo if all goes according to plan...
plan on getting an sc/t hood, havnt decided if i want the sc/t spoiler or a different one, might even custom make one and see how it comes out, wanna get lowering springs and kyb shocks, big brakes prob the camaro brake upgrade to b more affordable and in a perfect world a set of polished 18x8 eagle 077's.
i do have rims now but they need new tires and i never realy got any good pics of em on the car b4 i started the teardown...

There's a set of BBS wheels for sale in the FS forum, set your car off with a real legit set of shoes.

But I'd love to see some sort of turbo build AND a manual swap. The F-body calipers are nice, but I'd find a set of the Baer dual piston calipers, ask AaronGTR about them. Worth it IMO, if you're going to have a quick GA.

[GrandAmC9]

ya id really like to get a good set of dual pistons and i havnt really decided exactly what im doing for rear brakes yet. and ill deff b gettin a nice set of rims once its back on the road and computers happy and all. currently all the wireings done and interior is in, suspension and most of the under car is put together, still need to run new brake and fuel lines, need a fuel pump, windshield, and im replacing all the bearings and such in the motor while im getting the 6spd all sorted out..

[GrandAmC9]

u talkin bout these rims?
bbs style rims for sale
cause these look nice
or the other set?
bbs style rims for sale
these ones arnt really my style... im not dead set on five spokes but i do love the way they look on the GA's

[[ChaosweaveR]]

Nope, those are knockoffs, THESE are the ones.

BBS RS Tributes

[GrandAmC9]

oh ya sry i posted the same link twice... ya those are a bit too much for what im goin for with this car... but i deff do need to get a nice set of shoes for it wen i get the cash to throw twards wheels. prob once the motor and tranny are in and happy.

[[ChaosweaveR]]

Legit wheels only make it that much better. BBS is as legit as you can get.

[GrandAmC9]

i agree, that particular rim is a bit to flashy tho between the black and the chrome lip. id like to stay simple and polished aluminum..

With your color, why not gunmetal? Even bronze would look dope with your shade of grey.

[GrandAmC9]

oh ya deff cud look mean, i may find a few pics and photoshop em on to get a better idea wen i get home from work... just my first impression on em, i never even considered a rim like that in my idea of what i wanted to do. ill look into em tho, maybe post a cpl photoshoped pics to get a few opinions

[[ChaosweaveR]]

SSR
BBS
Volk
Advan
