And I'm spent...
Monday, April 02, 2007 12:10 PM
For those of you wondering what all you can buy with $5,000 for a j-body... the following pics show just that its been a long time coming for this update on my car, and FINALLY i can get it on here. i would say i have about 75% of the parts pictured already on the car, and yesterday i successfully started it up and she ran GREAT!

I would like to thank a few ppl for the extraordinary support and flawless business greatness:

Fred JR. at SMG motoring
JASON at A Plus Performance
Ron Beyer aka "Shifted" at Shifted tuning

On to the pictures:













SMG: 58mm at the butterly TB


180 amp upgraded alternator, case powdercoated black with blue AEM pulley








Custom tuned VCM by Shifted








heres some shots (sorry, i took them with my cam fone) of the venom manifold on:






I also bought a JSP carbon fiber trunk lid, but when i recieved it, it had a huge gash in the clear coat and im awaiting replacement, also waiting on the joshua dearman neon rear disk brake swap kit (i told him to wait until he could do the extra work on them so i didnt have to) also bought a gm genuwine AC condensor and new lower AC line but forgot to take pics

Thanks for looking!!!

i love the clear 95-99 cav headlights so much better. those with the clear turn signals on your white car will look fantastic (IMO)!!!!

the intake manifold is made by VENOM... and please dont mistake it for the POS OBX rip-off gains, nobody knows, im going to dyno my car this summer, but will have no idea if it helped or not since ive added a lot of other stuff as well.

pulleys:

AEM alternator pulley (bought it from an org member like 3 years ago) but ebay has them redily available as well.
00+ plastic wheel belt tensionor, bought it right from GM, i do believe it was $55.00
RSM underdrive aluminum crank pulley, i bought it off a seller on ebay named Frankie Z, he supposidly bought out rsm/z spec of pulleys when they went under... i paid $35.00 shipped for it brand new. idk if he has anymore though

and on a side note... it was utter HELL to find a right size belt for this combo, i tried like 5 diff. belts before i got the right one.

Adam (StealthCavalier) you think like me. The only problem with that many parts on the bed is that you have to move them all to have sex. Put them on the floor next time. LOL

Having shifted redo my computer was some of the best money I have spent on my car. I bet you will feel a difference form it. I can't wait to see it up and running and ride in it, I mean drive it.

I have to say that alternator looks tits.

so far its working very well. that new TB and this intake gives the "sucking" sound a whole new tone!!!! it whistles pretty loud. even at like just barely open throttle it's pretty loud.


and thanks a ton for all the great compliments guys... it really means a lot. u guys rule!!!!
