    Arrow My new ride,,,,,,,,,,,,,, finally! pics

    so I finally found a car. First thing, it's in houston, so I won't take possesion of it until next saturday. It's a 90 that is stock with the exception of shorties and some flowbastards. Car has 130k on the clock, and has been in this guys family from the get go. I saw it on ebay about a month ago, emailed him an offer, and he closed the auction. He beat around the bush about having a buyer, but I guess nothing panned out.

    The pics I have arn't to great, but I should have some nice new ones by the middle of this week.

    You guy's have to guess what I am going to pay.

    feedback is very welcome. I plan to slap on an offroad x-pipe, a bassanni cat-back, and the blower and have some fun. There will be 36# injectors, an adjustable fpr, the t-rex, and a 6btm in the mix. Then I'll just enjoy the hell out of it.

    Next up will be a mild suspesion setup, and then convert to 5lug with some 03' cobra wheels. Possibley the anniversary ones.

    I'm still contiplating how I wanna do the 5lug update.

    Then I'm going to move onto doing weatherseals, subframes, carpet, and what ever else needs attention in order to make it feel a little less like a 13 year old car.

    lol, yes sir. Will see how long it takes for me to kill the t-5! After that, in goes the tkoII. I'm hopeing it will get by for awhile. I'm going to try and atleast have a nice fuel system in the car before I have to do somthing to anything in the powertrain.

    I like the HPM ones with the seat supports. Kenny Brown is also a good choice..

    I was leaning toward the kenny brown units that include jacking rails. will see though.

    any other suggestions on somthing that a stock car with a blower needs?

    Which way would you do the 5 lug swap. Right now I'm just leaning towards axels and drums for the rear, and upgrading to the 94-95 stuff upfront, then later down the road when I'm rich doing a full on 4 disc setup. The ability to put skinnies on the front without using a 1" wheel spacer is very important to me also.

    you think the t-rex will work ok with the stock intank? Or should I sale the t-rex and get a gss340 intank?

    Looks nice, get a new intank, if it's original then it could go anytime, probably sooner than later.

    Take more pics when you get it home.

    The 5 lug swap depends on how much you want to spend really. The way you listed would be the cheapest way I would say..

    For fuel the stock intank will not give you the fuel you want, and it does have lots of miles. For a couple hours of work and $100 I would get the GSS340 intank.

    Thats kinda what I was thinking Ian, that pump alone should be enough.

    I plan to do the 5lug cheap now, and go for the good stuff (baer) when money permits.
