[Crawlin]

GOOD CHOICE!!! I've seen that sitting out there, and always thought about another one for a D.D., but I really need the truck

[GTSLOW]

Ya its a really nice car, I guess the NHRA's are a little rare too? Prolly gonna pull the badges anyways.

I'd just like to thank all those dealer peeps who posted all the info in the previous thread, and a special thanks to Kristen!!!!!! :thumbsup All that info you gave us on the car really helped me make the decision to buy it, thank you!!!!

Now I'm gonna order SLP Loud Mouth 2, Whisper lid, & Skip Shift Eliminator. Already got a Pro 5-0 for my other T56. :)

[SlowStee]

Awesome choice :thumbsup



DO NOT PULL THE BADGES....

[BAD LS1]

I wouldnt either.

What makes it an NHRA edition besides badges?

[Crawlin]

Slicks and Skinnies for sale... Slicks and Skinnies for sale...

[nismodave]

Wow....cool badges.

[Brian98GTP]

Rip'em OFF!!

Let that black b!tch roam around naked!! :wow

[BAD LS1]

Thank you! :headbang

Looks alot like william's ex t/a when he first got it

[DCDZ28]

Congrats Nan! Nice Car!!

[y2kws6]

Sweet, Glad my Sis could hook you up. Hopefully she was able to get the extra commission off it, its only a couple bucks but thats more than nothing.

Dan

[Anakonda69]

is the skip shift eliminator really necessary? mark have never had his come while racing or driving it hard.....

[Anakonda69]

what is entaled with the nhra edition?

[Poncho]

rip off the side molding and keep the badges

have tom rip off his SS badges before you go ripping off your Trans Am badges.

[Slow Joe]

Nice car man... Was it still at Holtz this past weekend? I may of saw it when I was bored driving around through other lots... :rolf

[BOSS LX]

Very nice car! When do you return?

[Yooformula]

Very nice! Congrats Nan. Keep the badges but lose the decals and side mouldings. Dont waste the cash on the skip shift, just get tuning! That is black isnt it?

[Berettaspeed]

whats so special about the NHRA one? besides badges??

[BAD LS1]

Hey Nan... you know i got HP Tuners for 02' F bodies right?

[Crawlin]

Me and Tom already trying to sell you ****, haha.

[PB86MCSS]

I'd yank the badges off too...not saying throw them away, you can always put them back on if you choose. Looks cleaner without, IMO.

[WilliamZ]

Nice purchase!! :thumbsup

[GTSLOW]

Thanks guys!!! Tom tell me about this tuning program, would I benefit tuning with just intake and exhaust? Also can tuning remove the skip shift eliminator?

PS I think NHRA is:

Badges
Power Steering Cooler
Hurst Shifter
Possibly 3.73's??

I really have no idea everywhere I look on the net it has different info. But most say power steering cooler and badges. The hurst might be an added option, either way its getting ditched for the pro 5-0 sitting in the basement :D

Oh and I'll be home not next week wensday but the following wensday, the 1st :D :D

[Firefighter Z]

You buastard... Congrats on the car... Wasnt there a Black Z28 sitting there for sale also?

What was the cost?

[SlowStee]

Why would you buy an NHRA edition TA and remove the badges???



buy a regular TA....

LOL It was one of the few lower mileage fbodies we found. Plus it was previously owned by a chick and had ALL of its pervious service records and any warrenty work that was done.

How did you get the build sheet?

[GTSLOW]

Dans sister Kristen hooked me up :thumbsup The previous owner saved all the paper work. Isn't there somewhere online u can lookup the build sheet via the VIN?

[Slow Joe]

PDN- Power Package ???? LMAO what is this?



Power windows, locks, mirrors, etc... It still shows it as an option even if it was standard... At least that's my guess...

[GTSLOW]

Ahh i was thinking performance :goof

So what ya ls1 guys think.

SLP Loudmouth 1 or 2 ( I love the way it sounds so dont try to sell me on GMMG)
Coolant bypass kit
Whisper lid (wheres the best place to buy one? The stock airbox looks like sh*t)
160* thermostat
And hopefully toms tuning (efans on at a lower temp + byebye skipshift)

Can't spend to much as I gotta drive to caly still. Insurance is only 114 a month for full coverage. ;) Yes I'm 21, its my lil secret.

[GTSLOW]

Hey lemme know if anyone knows anyone localy or midwest wise that has some 17's or 18's forsale. Looking for a 9.5 or 11" wheel. Prolly chrome or polished. Can be ZR1's, Z06, C5's, and mabye others.

I've looked into black with polished lip but theres to much of it now. Gonna stay old school and go chrome on black :D Sorry chris skinnies arent my style.

[Rifleman WI]

sweet lookin car!

[BAD LS1]

Well the tuning can do just about anything. Its quite impressive what bumping the timing and leaning it out it bit can do!, they are so conservative on timing, (18*) and so rich, (11.5:1) that it makes a huge diff in driveability after making some adj.

I can get rid of the skipshift, turn the fans on sooner, adj speedo for gears, get rid of torque managment, cat over temp protection (once the cats are gone).

A B4C's car was like night and day after.

[GTSLOW]

Sweet, well I dont think my M6 has torque management. What about the gay ass traction control. Can you disable it for good or what?

Also what should I get LM or LM II??

[SSmike1]

HEY NAN
Congratulations!
on your M6 - LS1 car!!!!!!!
very nice car!

YES, Ray, Kristin deserves a Commission too!
:)

[UnderPSI]

What about the gay ass traction control. Can you disable it for good or what?


Just get an ABS delete block. That will take care of your traction control. I can't stand ABS. Saves some weight too looks alot cleaner.

[number1]

Come out badges off, pants down.

At least pull the trim off, yuck.

[SSmike1]

LOUD MOUTH II

[Yamahachick02]

If any of you want a build sheet on your car or any thing i can get off dealer world, let me know. It has to be a GM vehicle and i need a full vin. PM me with it.

Congrats on the car it looks really nice. Now when you get back you just have to give me a ride. :thumbsup

[Crawlin]

thought you guys knew that? been doing it on LS1tech for everyone and doing locates for people who want specific vehicles. at 22 and counting for Trailblazer SS's sold nationwide :)

[GTSLOW]

Back logo! :thumbsup

[BAD LS1]

Yes M6's have torque managment too.

[GTSLOW]

Dam hook me up man!!! I'll be home on the 1st we could link up that weekend? So how much is this gonna run me? :thumbsup

Should I do the drill out mod?

[SSmike1]

OK
tom
what the heck is Torque Management?

my 00 does not have traction control, so does my car have that?

Can i pay ya to do a MOD to my car when you are here to do NAN's?
I want my fans to come on at a LOWER temp.

I can't remember if it was a stick or auto though. Hey NismoDave, isn't that Stacy's car? If it is, 96s10 you should know that car was never beat on.

[nismodave]

Was Stacys a NHRA???

[PARALYZER]

Yeah....Cuz I had never seen a TA with those badges. When I first saw the car, I thought it was something HE put on their. Wasn't intil later I found out there really was an NHRA version.

[BAD LS1]

I found out Stacy did sell the car to Holz. Someone bought the car from Holz, then returned it. I would ask Holz why the car was returned. Stacy sold the car to Holz in the summer.

[WhiteZCamaro]

Im not a big fan of badges but i say keepthem on it looks cool,get rid of the side moldings though the look gay IMO. You should get some 17x9.5 in the front and 17x11 for the back that would look sweet IMO

Prolly a chick who bought the car and didnt like it? Had to much power or driving stick was to much? I know mike took the car on one hellofa test drive, so I think its mechanicly sound. Atleast the clutch is good :thumbsup
