Oil change.

BigAls87Z28 05-25-2009 10:26 PM

Laundry list, but 5th gen fund is eating up most if not all of my disposable income.
Maybe Ill just buy what I need for the 87, and be done with it, and have to pick up a 2nd job to make more FU money.

Savage_Messiah 05-26-2009 12:45 AM

Jeff, let me know when you're going to James's house, cuz 1) I may mug you for the parts after and 2) if you stil have that compressor bring it up you'll be semi close to me anyway

ws9 hood, a bunch of free mods, get a 12 second pass before the end of summer. anddddd other nonsense.

HeadlessNorseman 05-28-2009 11:16 PM

1. get a tig welder

2. long tubes on the z28, if i cant sell it

3. cc503 cam/stall converter/dyno tuning

4. if i sell the z28, save all my monies for an ls1/auto then junk the altima or at least give it to one of my little cousins or my sister

z28rob18 05-29-2009 07:03 AM

my plan is to get my winter project done by mid june i hope. i have all the money needed to finish it up but the block is still at the machine shop 14 weeks now so much for 2-3 weeks and the rest just needs to be put together

MonmouthCtyAntz 05-29-2009 07:16 AM

Lower the car, install new stereo system and maybe a tune...thats about it.

ar0ck 05-29-2009 01:39 PM

Put gas in it.

98tadriver 05-31-2009 12:10 AM

hmmm im going to take more weight out of the trans am, buy some more stuff for it and shoot for 11.30-11.40@118+ with stock internals. it would make place me 8th or 9th on LS1tech stock internals list, and make me the quickest 6spd on that list as well :D After reaching that goal, i'll spray the 100 or 150 and get kicked off of the track :lol:

CamaroJoe1987 05-31-2009 12:52 AM

hopefully get my 305 ripped out and apart soon. get my structured settlement check, drop a 383 stroker, th-350 @ 2800 stall, ford 9" rear, and either wilwood, or bear rotors all around. then move to the body work.

bandit88 05-31-2009 08:24 AM

I have a lot of work I want to get done.
1. paint engine bay
2. replace trans
3. replace pass. front floor pan

camaro2you 05-31-2009 09:51 AM

98: Tubular k-member, upper a-arms, lower a-arms, rear lowering springs, lca relocation brackets, Pull the ls1 put in new bearings and arp bolts/studs, big cam, oil pump, newer heads, rockers, push rods, lifters, tune, new fuel pump setup, fast intake, bigger tb, injectors, freshen up the trans and stall.
86: get the car completely primed, paint the engine bay and all jambs, front end installed, drop the 572 in.

madness410 05-31-2009 11:21 AM

my summer 'profject' is to get it running decently right and sell it

SuperSweet 05-31-2009 07:27 PM

228r cam, lifters, valve springs, clutch, axle tube braces, tune, and possibly gears.

NJ346 05-31-2009 07:46 PM

Now that my truck is sold it looks like I'll actually be able to do some work to the camaro. I may try my hand at a budget ls2 swap(sub $2500) and get the car into the 11s the easy way.

zuuhlsT/A 05-31-2009 08:10 PM

I started back in April with a SLP LM1 catback exhaust (hella loud, got LM2 muffler arriving on Monday), Fixed my cracked door panels (thanks 98tadriver for the clean pass.doorpanel:nod:), painted my calipers red today and if I still gotta job on Monday will be getting the slotted/cross drilled rotors and will mess with the FRC's I have. It's all bling this year. If I lose my job I'll be selling a really clean Hawk with 42k on the clock.:cry: Makes me mildly suicidal just thinking if I gotta do that......

LTb1ow 05-31-2009 08:12 PM

Suspension work, mostly finishing up the rear, but if funds allow it, K and A arms up front...

2kblackgtp 06-02-2009 07:17 PM

blacdout96, what is done/ will be done to the motor?

I plan on getting long tube, ORY, and h/c on the car by the end of summer...

firebirdcrazy 06-04-2009 04:14 PM

Been working on mine for the past 2 months. Installed a completely new sound system from the head unit to a new trunk. New chrome and painted engine pieces, and new wings west spoiler kit. Hopefully I finally get to break it out this weekend for some shows. What you think?
