2. Lay the thing back on the ground (air or hydraulics: either way, I want it layin' hard on the tranny crossmember.

did you notice anything with the rear rsm strut tower bar?? welli had the front one firsst and noticed it, but then i got the reae and not so much.

but i love all my rsm stuff. all my preformace syuff i orderd from them

[TA^Guy]

You won't ntoice the rear bar as much because the front takes most the abuse diving into a hard corner. Plus not to mention on most vehciles the rear is more rigid anyhow.

[DontPassTheFence]

I really dont know if I will get the rear one, if I do it will mostly be for looks, I just think there is something cool about a stabilzer bar showing in the trunk, it says, "look, Im cooler thgan you and I want to autocross."

[Brandon]

headers/exhaust
super charger
blue underbody neon kit to match the front
*other wants*
GAS PRICES TO GO DOWN!!!

[Pte Socks]

Big list here guys.

-Cobra R front bumper custom mounted ( year right, but its my dream and im sticking to it! )
- Dual set of Street glow gold series neo-blue underbodies ( im gonna replace mine, dont even get me started on how pissed I am at the install
-custom interior neons ( just keep mine, I love em )
-17" lightweigh rims ( roughly 15-17 lbs) with KDWS tires
-Brake upgrade with:
dual front piston calipers
single rear piston calipers
SS brake lines
Hawk pads
Powerslot slotted rotors
-GT body mouldings ( side skirts + ribs )
-fix the rust ( roughly 600$ I was quoted )
-P&P with 3 angle valve job heads
-P&P UIM/LIM
-P&P 62mm TB from RSM ( to 65 mm )
-aftermarket enlarged MAF
-high speed fans
-custom set of headers built
-rebuilt and upgraded CAI
-CF hood
-Rebuilt motor
-4T-65E HD tranny
-Sport cam ( most likely a place like mantapart)
-rods and pistons ( if needed during the rebuild )
-RSM front and rear sway bars ( I hear from most they are the best
-front strut bar
-KYB GR2 or AGX struts ( or if a nice set of coil overs come my way..)
-H&R lowering springs
-raised compression to ~10-10.5
-DHP custom tuned ECU
-1.0 or 1.5 ( most likely a 1.5) Limited slip with tranny
-JL 12W6V2 subs mated to an Alpine 1000/1
- Alpine Type R or JL 5 1/4" front components
- Dido 6x9 rears
- JL 450/4 component amp
-custom box so that I can still access my spare easier than I can now ( roughly 4" in depth smaller but more formed to my trunk )
-full tear out of previous spare area and a custom built holder for a full sized spare ( I can extend it another foot due to the redesign of my exhaust ;) )
-Full dynamat of rear trunk area
-front racing seats like the beautiful Rearco's found in the ION redline
-Rear seat removal with more of the racing seats
-3 point driver side racing harness
-Full 1.75" roll cage

Well, I think thats about it. In all, if that was all done, id be very happy and set with my GA. It should handle quite respectfully in the autoX as well as the street yet stay comfy enough for regular driving. The roll cage is more of a dream though, that is probably the lowest priority on the list. The good thing is all the performance mods which should bring me in the high 13s range at full weight. That is my main goal though, high 13's at full weight, that would be damn hard with all the stereo and dynamat, and id have to be pulling probably around 250 @ 5200 rpms and something around 260 ft-lbs of torque at 4000 rpms. Id also like to configure the setup so that I can hit around 6500 rpms before it shifts, though that would be ECU tuning and for that, Id most likely get some forged pistons and rods as well as whatever else Id need to boost it up there. Im very confident though that with some nice cams, the all motor work with raised compression with proper ECU tuning, I could get in the 13's. That or get me one of those nice 3.9L with VVT found in the G6 GTP. Im pretty srue if I cant hit 13's with the 3400, I will damn well be able to smash it with the 3900. Hehehe all that on an old school 12 valve pushrod ...

Matt, you won't be able to use the TRS header if your going to be using a turbo. You will have to have a custom exhaust manifold made. Might as well go with the WKC(White Knuckle Customs) custom intake manifold to bolt on either the M62 or the M90 Supercharger. Recomend the M90(thats what Im going with here) cuz once you get bitten by the boost bug the M90 has more potential for more power then the M62.

[DontPassTheFence]

Oh, I know; its either or. Im willing to bet Ill never get that turbo, though. Thats WISHFUL thinking at its peak. Im definitely getting that TRS header sometime, though :D

And if I ever get boosted, Ill need a better fuel pump, bigger injectors (most likely the brown tops), forged internals, a getrag transmission (for which Id need all the shift cables, shifter plate pobably, and the actual shifter assembly), a stronger clutch, and a good solution for oil feed/return lines.

So all that pretty much destroys my dream there, because I won't want to throw that much cash at my Grand Am. More realistically Id get an MR2/Miata/Solstice depending on my financial situation in the future.

[RyanWal26]

convert to RWD get a small block 350 add a supercharger fix the damn rear window.

[ttah8]

my wish, trade in my car for a 2007 BMW 335i Twin Turbo coupe. Otherwise probably mainly the Eaton M62 Roots-Type.
