Thats a sweet looking ride and thats awesome you want to keep it looking factory but i dont know about that flaming pony grill......they have that horse that lights up now when you turn your lights on thats pretty cool

ltrclwn · 03-21-2003, 08:34 PM

the flammin pony grew on me at first i didnt like but after a couple of days it made the car stand out...plus one little silly thing has attracted more comments then anything else....more people ask me about the pony emblem and my wheels.......so it makes it nice....as far as the light up one....i dont know about it..have to see it first only have seen in the magazines...

Welcome and sweet looking ride.

Love the sleeper look, but when you look that good ..... who are you really sneaking up on?

Excellent mods.

beautiful ride "smoke"...looks awesome.........i really like your hood and ground effects kit.......can i ask you a question..where did you get the clear headlight lenses..and how much....mine are starting to get hazed and i have been looking for a set of clear but everything i find doesnt come with the rubber seal around the edges so i am afraid they will take in water....

Nice ride IT. I am interested in getting the three chamber flows for my 96 gt. I also want something a bit quieter mainly because i don't want to make too much noist starting up in the morning. What do you mean "doesn't help WOT" ?

Hammer · 03-25-2003, 11:44 AM

One thing I don't see on your mod list... new heads...

Those 98 heads are holding you back.... big time...

ltrclwn · 03-25-2003, 01:23 PM

cousinrob....the three chambers are quiet considering...not too loud at all......have a nice growl to them.......definately wont wake the neighborhood in the morning.....unless you have done heads/cam work on the car....i have not as of yet.....and not too much drone at the 2000-2400 rpm range which flowmaster is notorious for........what i mean by WOT is the car is relatively wuuiet(you can hear the difference in idle sound and normal driving) but when the gas pedal goes to the floor the car screams.......defiantely an attention graber...

Hammer....i havent done the heads yet as funds have not allowed me too.....plus i dont want to do the heads until i can do the entire motor at one time while she is open and out of the car....it is not that the heads are expensive.......and the rest of the motor work for parts....it isnt...but i have to rely on a shop to do the work for me...and labor kills me..the prices are crazy....and i am at there mercy as i will only trust my car to select people based on there reputation....nothing worse then haveing someone screw up your motor..or installation of a part..

basic bolt on's i can do......with help......but serious stuff i wish i worked at a shop......
