Well I think I know away around some things and I will be looking to pick up a new project car. eventually the car will be a daily driver. im just doing plans and would like to here what you guys have to say about color choices and things,
first off the car would be a 90-92 Trans am with ground effects
eventually painted quasar blue
z06 gunmetal wheels
ls1
t56
ported ls1 heads
long tubes
legal exhuast using corsa c5 catback( i think true duals)
better intake
k&n fuel injection performance kit
tune
4th gen rear (verry eficient gears)
lowering springs
and lots of other suspension mods
How much would i be looking to pay a year in insurance?
would the project be cheaper then just getting a 4.5 gen? factor in insurance too.

v6 looking like v8 is BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD
v6 with y87 is good, i think thats what you mean, that one's got dual exhaust, limited slip, 3.42s, and an ls1 steering rack
Ok if you plan on getting an LS1 ... nvm im not even gonna waste the energy in my finger muscles to type it ... :roll: To put it in smaller words....

Matt, that is gonna be way too expensive. You'll run out of money less than halfway into it. And a C5 exhaust will not work on a third gen. A C5 exhaust will only work on a C5.
Why dont you do the logical thing. build up a mild 350 for your bird and get a beater.
I must have missed something here....

cant, im not allowed to... "if its not broke dont fix it" comes into play right now. right now I theirs no doubt in my mind that I wont have a 11 sec. car by the time i get my liscence, my problem comes into play of not wanting a beater, but wanting a fast and fuel efficient car, that i can daily drive and not get rapped with insurance.

umm, you have yet another overly elaborate plan to upgrade your car, yet you say if it ain't broke, don't fix it? WTF are you talking about then?
your car needs mild work, do that first. then worry about upgrading.

Ok, just sell the ****ing car already. Your babbling so much, your gonna end up in a psychiatric ward with a matchbox model of a 4th gen trans am and 3rd gen trans am, crashing them into eachother drooling on yourself, stabbing yourself in the chest with an invisible knife while trying to bite your ear TIMMMMMMAY type ****. Out of the 2800 posts you have, 2300 are plans for your car and all of them are so very different....

You should just be happy to have something presentable to drive as a first vehicle. Forget about things like N20 for now. Give your current car what it needs to be a driver, and worry about just driving it and staying out of trouble.

Oh boy.
Matt, for the last time. There is no need to think about owning multiple cars (especially ones capable of running 11s) when you can barely turn a wrench on the one you have. Spend more time learning how to work on the car you have before you even think about buying another car.

I think some of you guys would have nothing to talk about online during the day if Matt didn't pose all kinds of questions, comments, concerns and greivences. Face it - you love Matt and his flighty personality, and you know it.

ive made this point before, im not gonna learn how to work on a car by myself, im not one of those people, trust me I either cant do it or i put it together all wrong, the reason I could do my y pipe is cause i had help from a freind and its like 8 bolts including the clamps for the slip fit.im sorry i suck

this statement proves that you won't learn, not that you can't. when you have decided you are incapable of something the odds of you learning it are minimal.
don't decide if you can or can't do something until you have put some time into trying to learn it.
no one here popped out of the womb, wrench in hand, spitting skoal, downing buds, and working on high end cars. we all took teh time to ask and listen to those around us that had more knowledge and time into the game.
the problem you are having is that you don't stay on one topic/part long enough for anyone to teach you anything. slow your role a bit and listen to the advice you have been given.
