It's no Sunday afternoon smooth Buick luxury ride but you can certainly navigate traffic and Michael said 20 and 30-mile trips on the freeway were not an issue.

` I recently flew down to LA with a friend to look at this car after running across it on eBay and sending the owner a $2000.00 deposit. It was eBay item #4550055584. I decided not to purchase the car as it was simply too much car for what I was looking for as it is modified to the extent that...

I love taking newbies for a ride in the black beast. Red faces, sweaty palms, rubbery legs that won't stand up on the way out and my favorite of all, the "funky hampster move" where the newbie frantically grabs for something, ANYTHING!, to try and bring security back to their world to the point...

Maybe? ` Toni, may-beez dat caw of yawz iz runin ruff caz youz got yor NAWS mix'd up with da Hornet spray? May-beez Robin wenz outta kontrol cawz you hit in da hed with a shot of NAWS while at da same tyme youz was chokin yur engine out with Hornet spray? Itda definitely beez worth chekin da...

Heck, just go straight for the wife. :D

~ I've always wanted to see someone do a fast pull by, pull hard right, hit the breaks on the shoulder, drop back, then come around behind and put a few more care lengths back on the loser before the 1/4 ran out. That would lower a few tails. Sounds like you might have been a contender if...

` Toni, me tinks yor NOS kit mite be sprayin' straight in unda da dash. Sumtin is leakin sumwhere buddy .... :D

` "Street surfing" is like a s**t sandwich. The more bread/boost you have the less s**t you have to eat. Good lesson there teach! :D

` Cops are all closet speed freaks. (No not the amphetamine type.) Went out street cruising (and a bit of racing) one evening with one of our city's finest who really wanted to see what a GN was all about, sure that some of all this talk has to be BS? Don't you just love how GN newbies...

` Definitely a "dark" roast. :D

` Quote: "I'm curious why it is that no one calls bull**** on me when I post that I've beaten an LS1 with a 16 year old stock intermediate sedan with a 6 cylinder from a non-performance division?" OK, bulls**t - you're it. :p

Here's the scenario. My friend Paul is in town and it's been two years since he last went for a ride in the big bad GN. Now Paul is a long-time friend and we have a friendly grudge match going as his lifetime project has been a very sweet 1966 Corvair powered by a Buick high perf 455 hooked to...

My kit was one of the first with the braided lines so I am OK but thanks for the advice. As for the car continuing to pull, it pulls like a banshee already well past 100 mph and keeps going which is more than I need to reach my excitement level. I love watching seasoned GN owners riding as...

Yes, and I've even had one of the first SMC alky kits sitting on my shelf now for nearly two years yet whenever I get some free time (too little for sure) I seem to end up driving the car instead of working on it. I hear so many good things about the alky kit though that I'm almost scared to...

Don't forget, 16 psi of plenum pressure on a well "ventilated" engine will likely move as much air through as 20 psi or more on a stock engine and at lower turbo outlet temperatures.

I can respect your call for bull**** but the Snake has been but the latest in a respectable string of kills over the past couple of seasons against some very respectable cars. Not really kills actually, more like annihilations. Friday night was perhaps a combination of two guys that had no...

On Friday night the weather was beautiful so I took the 87 GN to the local Friday-night car show along with an out-of-town friend. We were minding my own business when two beefy guys with shaved heads and gold framed wrap-around Mylar sunglasses showed up beside us in traffic in a bright yellow...

I will send him an email. I did notice on the guage pack that there were turbo logos in the face plate below the dials. Perhaps these were engraved in after the fact but they sure looked original. Odd that no one else on the list has seen these guages a they are a perfect fit. _
