Thats right....Let the pics speak for themself.

Ive yet to take my OWN pics but this WAS Alex16cav's car but its now MINE!! As you can see , there is a beuatiful intercooler hiding in the bumper. BUT its no longer turboed...

Its going to have a ALL NEW BEGINNING!! Tell me what ya think.

BTW...i still have the sunfie! I just need some new pics with the hood etc.

On to the pics!!






and heres one i couldnt find but ended up finding it on EBAY.. O well



Now it has tinted windows and new falken azenis tires. Interior is halfway stripped and whats left is green and white. Looks good though. Bought this for a project so thats what it is. Front bumper needs painting due to chips etc and there a couple of dings and whatnot....

Im gonna yank the motor out and go through it and RETURBO it. As you know...alex ran 10psi on this car with stock internals with no problem. Mike karas built and designed the kit (picked out the turbo etc.) and tuned it.

WHats left on the car is in my registry.

Tell me what i should do with it (exterior wise)

WOOP!!!

NICE buy

if I knew it were for sale I woulda picked it up

I'm following in his footsteps going with 10psi on stock internals for now, then buying a spare short block to build up and shoot for 15-20psi of boost

what kinda turbo did he have on it, and what kind of spool did it make?

Okay...the hankook tires that are on my sunfire suck. They spin easily and going down the road i feel like im floating around when i barely move the steering wheel.

WHat turbo did it have on it? "Custom T3/T04E Stage 2 Turbo-Turbonetics Exhaust Housing/Garrett Compressor"

heres a pic of what it DID look like....




now its now turboed

and i dont know if im even going to the tx meet.

nopers....sorry

Im gonna swap out the cavvy wheels with the sunfire and see what the results look like.

Both 17" but the sunfire has 215/45's and the cavvy is on 225/45 Falken Azenis!

White and silver...we will see what looks best!

Also might switch the Sportline springs on the cavvy over to the sunfire and the sunfires goldlines to the cavvy. The cavvy sits better in the front.

Yea I remember seeing this for sale in the regional classifieds. Redfire is a theif. He pretty much stole this car, lmao. I was really pissed because I saw the post 2 days after I bought my car. I would have snatched this car in a heart beat. Your a lucky bastard =P

Good luck with the car man. He turbo was sweet. I remember watching his vid of him beating a contour, Z28 Camaro and a 350z on the street. It gave me hope for my 2.2 when I had it.

P.S. does anyone have the video i'm talking about?

Why would i need new wheels and a new kit? Only thing wrong is the chips on the front bumper...Fresh paint and its ready to go. The wheels are also in great shape with brand new tires. Why would i need different ones?


Greenfire....this is going to be fun!


Oreo....first come first serve. I just kept calling him and bugging him...next thing i know, its mine!

I just got almost all the interior out of a donor car at the yard. I still need the top dash peice though.

Im going to go work on it right now. WOOP!!
