Nice car man....I love those GTOs.
Did they sell it to you "As-Is", or give you a short warranty?
That exhaust won't pass NJ State Inspection, so if they gave you any kind of short warranty I believe they are obligated by state law to fix anything keeping the car from passing a state inspection.

Signature Motor Cars, Was that place formerly called the Performance Car Store a few years ago? If it's the same place, I had a bad experience with them. Good luck with the car, just make sure they do everything they say they are going to do.

They sold it to me with a 1 month BS warranty LOL.. so I immediately told them about the brakes.. I will make sure to mention something about the inspection with that exhaust.. why won't that exhaust pass inspection though? I will take some pics of it and see if there are cats.

It actually comes out to the side of the body just in front of the rear tires? If that's the case, then you should be fine. I only mentioned it because you mentioned dumps before the rear axle in the first post and I didn't see the tips in the side shot you posted.
And the exhaust has to exit 4" behind the last window you can put down, not 6".

Well it has mufflers with turn downs that dump under the middle of the car as far back as the rear tires. I will take a pic when it's light out so you can see what I mean.

Oh and the other thing with GTO's the slave cylinder will leak on you eventually. You can get a F-body one for about 75 dollars. Swap the fittings and you'll be good to go..
Ask me how I know.. lol

He already knows all the maintance problems that entail the car. From cradle alignments to strut mounts, and spring sag etc. No need to make a list on here. Im sure we'll be tearing it down in no time lol

If the tips don't come out to the side of the car it *should* fail inspection. If you don't wanna fight with it later, get it fixed on their dime if possible.....

Finally took a picture of the exhaust.. it has dual chokemaster mufflers (not loud at all tho)
Also.. the tips scrape on the ground a lot. I think I might get drag bags to raise the rear suspension temporarily until I can afford new springs.

Yea, that exhaust is definitely not legal....you might get lucky, but chances are very good that you will fail NJ inspection with that setup.

Well that's not good because I just spent literally all of my money for brakes. Now if I have to deal with that I'm going to have words with the dealership for sure.
