After I got it, I changed the interior, and added a Venom computer controlled N2O kit along with reprogramming and a few internal tweaks... Steve Sweet! I had an 01 Pewter SS. Went to a couple of SLP days at E-town. Had to sell it for a truck though:( Was able to sqeak about 30 mpg's out of it on the highway(M6).I tell you, if I had the cash, I'd buy it from you. I really miss mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. I usually wouldn't take the bait with them. The stangs would always stop about a car length back at a light. I wanted to get a little revenge for getting picked on by the fox body stangs when I had my 92 Camaro. They crushed me everytime back then.Good luck with selling it, I sure wish I could buy it.

There was this guy that we kinda hung out with , that put every friggin cent he had into this 70 Charger ... That friggin thing kept up with rice burners ( motorcycles ) from a start . We used to hang out and watch this guy race GSXR 1100's ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soc_monki Posted April 10, 2006 Members Share Posted April 10, 2006 go with the Altima dude...ive had mine for almost 4 years, 114k on the odometer, and have NEVER had it break on me. sure, ive had to fix a few things (CV joint boot ripped, wheel bearing, clutch cuz the guy before me couldnt drive it...) but other than those things, its an amazing little car that is quick for a 4 banger and will be reliable as hell.and if you want to do some mods to the Altima, do it. i have...i dont care what anyone says "why would anyone want to race a jap car?" well, i did it for fun, to learn about my car and how to work on it, and so i could make it handle a little better and go a little faster, and look a little better (i hate steel wheels LMAO!) i know it wont be a {censored}in' Camaro SS or whatever...but thats not the point. plus, it gets 32 mpg average 4 doors, LOTS of trunk space (my 4x12 and 5150 head will fit in the trunk...well would, i have a sub in there now...LOL) i love it...i love Hondas too, i just hate what some people do to them and by the way...i see nothing wrong with Chevy's either...weve had Blazers from 96 till now, a 96 model, 98, and now a 2002 Trailblazer...only one that had a problem was the 96 and that was because the AC would blow through the defrost vents when going up a hill for some reason...fixed under warranty as long as you take care of a car, 9 times out of 10 itll take care of you, and if it doesnt, get rid of it! because you know that youll just be throwing money away in the long run!

Members DeathMonkey Posted April 10, 2006 Members Share Posted April 10, 2006 I love my 05 GTO. I have big plans Looks like a Cavalier on steroids, but all the FatF crowd see are my tailights. Cops don't give me a second look. All that said, go Altima. Those things are indestructible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rockstrongo Posted April 10, 2006 Members Share Posted April 10, 2006 I'd go for the best of both worlds, which is actually what I really did myself. I bought myself a 2001 Honda Prelude with 64k on it. Japanese reliability and the call will last a long time if I take care of it, plus it looks awesome and is pretty powerful.

Members ranalli Posted April 10, 2006 Members Share Posted April 10, 2006 Originally posted by SteveVHT Funny... My 2000 SS Camaro has never broken down on me...Nor have any of my Chevy cars and trucks.... Plus you can spank the crap out of just about anything on the road with a LS1 car....Even Z06's... By the way, I have a Camaro for sale.... 10.85 @135mph...And still gets 22mpg... You must be the only guy on LI with one of those.....everyone else seems to drive BMWs and {censored} like that up there.....don't forget about the random senseless crappy rap music blaring out the window.
