Hah ur funny i m not stupid. Its a LS1. I dont know how u can be this misinformed. It became teh LS1 in 1998. The LT1 was before it. As fas as teh MPG go i know ppl that have them and they get around 18mpg city only and i only get 15mpg in my car. I know teh interior is cheaper but i mena im 17 it doesnt need to fancy. I couldnt care lessa bout wood trim and plastic.

Tom: i dont know about the twsites as i said before i havent driven one yet. From where im standing i have only read stats and reviews or the car/. And i know the handling is bad but i will be doing the suspension and i heard they are amazing with the right aftermarket suspension.

Heinzanova; I thank u for ur in put and i know u love V8s but Tom is an amazing fabricator and u should respect him on here if u ever want any help. He is known as teh mad sciencist and he knows a ton about cars.

Thank u all for ur input and i will tell u how i feel once i drive it. And once again i would love to have a s4 and i have driven and loved it but as i know on here that there is always someone taht doesnt like that car. I was called an idiot for looking at a s4 too but i loved it. It has simply come down to 2 things; Money i have to spend and Performance i want from the car.

as far as MPG go look at this site. http://www.pizzaplacetx.com/2002mpg.html

 

'NUFF SAID...

 

man 2.39 a gallon.. not too shabby

 

Heinzanova, would u be willing grow some ***** and race toms car with ur outstanding stang, or camaro? Or whatever other piece of **** you drive? It can be video tape and on the forums for eberyone to see just how much of a *** u really are.

 

haha, im not sure if tom would agree to that. I thought he still had some fine tuning until he can turn the boost up.

 

Dude... did you even read my post? I was saying, I have a camaro for sale, but it is not an LS1, it is an LT1... if you viewed my link, you'd have noticed that my car is a 1995 camaro z28, which, last time I checked, is prior to 98, and still had the venerable LT1.

Misinformed? Uh huh.

I've driven tonnes of LT1 camaro's/trans am's, have owned one of each... and have driven several LS1 camaro's as well.

its more of a owww-dee sound

 

haha no i didnt read ru entire post sry bout that. The post were long so i didnt read all of them. I want a LS1 for teh mods availble and teh availble power for them. Also whats a 1le? I hit the link about history but it didnt work? Is that ur car?

 

Audiboy1618, I have an Audi (thus I am on this board) and a 1st Gen DSM, I would be more than happy to race him with my talon, as I am not making performance mods on my audi. I highly doubt I would be trolling on this message board, looking for an eThug argument, for any reason dispite I own an Audi and wish to understand my German car. I have done lost of work on Japanese and some Domestic vehicals.

Seeing you have not taken the time to understand I do not own a stang, or camaro (used to own a firehawk).

Anyways, what wrong with mullets guys? Haven't you heard? Business up front, party in the rear... no fun at all.

I will get back to the post I made about my experiance with GM's 350 Small blocks in the past, a little bit later.

Right now I need to take a minute and appologize for calling tom a idiot, I was not in knowledge at the time of what he had done, or his achievements, I went to his car domain site, and looked around and back logged searched some of his stuff before I decided whether or not to make a follow up post to this massive flame war that has started. It is true, I did and still don't know Tom, but with out having known him, being new, I figured his post calling them crap was something from the stand point of the typical message board kiddie (much like some replies seen above).

Typically I don't give that many props for people doing their own maintenance (since I have owned a few DSMs on which everything always breaks) but when I saw he was doing it in a parking lot, wow...


Anyways Tom and I can settle our flame war, if he wishes to continue, outside of this topic.

My post was mainly to explain, that since the person was looking at them, what MY take and Personal experiance with F-Bodies (certain ones) have been. But at the same time, I felt it important to address all cars deserve respect for one aspect or another.

Audis :
Luxary, Style, German, High Tech, Handling
Mad props for that, but at the same time people can turn around and be like oh well all that high tech **** is a pain in the *** and over complicates something, very true. Or one could say, too expensive with limited ablities to modify if you wish to run good track times.

Fbody :
Fast, Reliable, Basic, Strait Line
no frills, no good brakes, no good handling, the car can go fast, strait, is it an interior someone is gonna go WOW over, hell no, is it gonna run an Auto X fast, nope, can you modify the engine and drive tran cheaply to achive high end results, definatly.

I mean the list can go on, every car has an area it strives and areas it suffers. For that every car has a place in, what I feel is a true car enthusiest heart, my Personal feeling on this.

Hell even Civics have something they are good at, they are good on gas. (this is as per stock, not fart can modified).

Point being, I won't come strait out and call any car crap based on just one aspect of it's design.


CLIFF NOTES FOR THOSE WHOM WISH NOT TO READ IT AND WISH TO AVOID MAKING DUMB FOLLOW UP COMMENTS:
Told Tom I am Sorry
Explained my reasoning defending FBodies, because I used to own one and told about my experiance in the last post
FYI(s):
I do not own a "...outstanding stang, or camaro? Or whatever other piece of **** you drive..."
If it is a race in sportsman ship everyone wants, I have no problem meeting up with Tom, and having someone video taping a race against him. Although do to the mistake in the quoted post I am commenting on, I feel this no longer might stand.



*sits back and waits for the next set of flames*


(BTW by making personal attacks on myself and not upholding good fellowship, you are acting in fact, as uncivalized as I myself did, in my post calling tom an idiot; Just some food for thought).

 

Hahahaha, I am glad at least someone could find some humor and constructive critacism in my post... I will make sure when I do my Ron White impression but saying Audi, I will get it correct this time.
