Arkan, A must have for your Gt500
[img]http://i16.ebayimg.com/01/i/03/bc/f5/fe_3.JPG[/img]
[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v683/JZeilinga/BBR_LNR-sm.jpg[/img] Now while im a fan of the body work and so forth of the GT500 this kit is simply stunning. It also only seems fit to be put on a Gt500 when called by most of its producers, "the Eleanor kit". The ones above are GT's though im sure you could inquire to it fitting a GT500. [quote:c10ff]the rear bumper isn't goingto have rear exhaust cut outs. its going to be a totally remanufactured rear bumper. it'll be ready by the end of this week. It's the Blow-By Racing LNR Body Kit designed by Kaenen Products. Kit is available and is $2800 Kit includes: *Hood *Front Bumper *(2) Side Skirts w/ Side Exhaust Cut-outs for BBR Side Exit Exhaust System. *(2) Side Scoops *(2) Quarter Window Scoops *3 Piece Ducktail Spoiler *Rear Bumper GT Fogs relocated to new front bumper... hardware will be included in kit.[/quote:c10ff] Just a note, you would have to have exhaust work done, but side pipes fucking rock. Also appairently other compaines have similar things and might be worth checking out. I didnt do it as a PM simply because why not show it off. |
nice. too bad you can't go over speed bumps or hit any pebbles on the road with it.

arkan has a gt500?
|
very nice kit indeed. I like this one myself.

cavaliers..rofl
i would rather walk |
Nice "Eleanor" kit but i'm not going to modify the GT-500. If i had a standard GT, then perhaps i'd do something like that just to be different. The only changes on the GT-500 that i'll do are small "reversible" ones. Perhaps side window vents, pullies, some suspension work, etc I really don't want to change the car all that much.....it's rather nice the way it is.
.....and no, the GT-500 won't be available until summer of '06 as an '07 model. Arkan is saving his nickels and dimes until then but......i'm already on a waiting list for it !! [img]http://media.primedia.com/imagehosting/motortrend/enewsletter/may_cov.jpg[/img] |

IS that an Oldmobile Alero? stupid:

seeing as most of you have never driven a cavalier before, let alone one of the gt 500's. rolleyes: . I was reading a mod article in hCi, with as little as 3.5k they modified a cav to do 265hp. http://www.jbody.org sleeping:

A stock Gt mustang has 300, and with just about as much tuning can go to 350 no problem. |

I owe 10k when the car is worth 6900, so to do an even trade i need 4k in pocket but it's the cards i was dealt, i needed a car and got one, now iam paying for it dearly....so iam going to make the most of it already got a clarion deck in it, going to put a Kicker 300.2 amp in it soon, with 2 12 Cerwin vegas it's not a bad car, and get's O.k. gas mileage but not worth the 300 notes iam paying for it lol |

I am not ocmparing the 2, im just saying form y doller range, it is what I like, I have gone around test drivng everything, celica's, (an older 93 supra), SHO, Si civic, 95 tdi jetta, old 92 5.0 mustang (insurance + gas = no way), sunfires, corrolas, suzuki esteem, sx 2.0, grand am gtp, protege 5, accord, I have been going threw with so many to find which car suits me best price wise and performance wise, maybe for my next car when i have a job after my post secondary education ill think about a nice bmw, a audi, a new mustang, or even a impreza, but for now, What i found will suit me best and my tastes was another cavalier. Anyone who doesn't even have their license, or just drives their moms car around should really be keeping their mouths shut about most cars out their. |

The car would fall apart before it hit 4500 rpms. Why would you ever mod a cavalier? They are almost as bad as a kia. No offense to Zone biggrin: |
No offense taken.
I shake my head in disbelief when I see a riced Cavalier. annoy: |
anything pre 2000 is pretty much garbage,(in any type of performance aspect) after that heavy engine modifications were made... AKA the 2.2 and 2.4 ecotec inspired engines. Designed in europe. It is a modern high reving engine. They hold up great and work miracles for your information hollywood.. and the whole it won't make it to 4500 rpm was a lame comment. I am not putting it in the same class as that mustang, but they are good cars.
http://www.gm.com/company/gm_exp_live/e ... _specs.htm and this http://www.auto123.com/en/parts/tuning/ ... 31233&pg=1 cionsidering the cobalt uses almost the exact same engine.(smilar mods can be done to the z24 as well) |

While i would drive a Cavalier if i HAD to, i definately would keep it low keyed. No way would i mod it to a level that would attract ANYONES attention.
Ok, back on the GT-500, i went to the dealer today and sat down with the Vice President of the dealership (A guy i know for the past 18 yrs). Seems this car may be nearly impossible to get since Ford only plans on making 5000 cars nationwide. This particular dealership is getting only 3 cars and the owner is taking one. That leaves two and there is at least 6 people ahead of me on the list but...........since i inquired about it in early December, and i purchased alot of cars with them, he placed me 1st on the list. He wants me to call him on Wednesday for more info. |
The rear ground effect is absolutly god aweful. Its was to fucking wide.

Only 5000? That sucks. Not like I'd be able to get one anyway. I'm still paying for my '02 and I don't make the money that you (Arkan) probably do. I need a new job goddamnit!! wallbash: |
ooh yeah, my car own's everything

I drive a 1994 Chevrolet Caprice Police Pkg. It has a 5.7L V8 and gets roughly 15 or 15MPG city. Its a bitch to pay for gas with the prices so high, but i think its worth it, I love to know all the 260HP and 330Lbs of torque are there when i really need it. For those who dont know, my car is basically the same as the 94-96 Impala SS's, minus the different cosmetic things.
