  • just introducing myself :)

    hey whats up. my names J.K. im from northern cali and recently picked up a 98 trans am. its had alot more issues then i wanted so far haha but from what i understand most is common in these cars so its all good well to start off. my car is a 98 whitehawk. ls1 with t tops and 6 speed. had a broken window motor so i replaced that. torn tranny mount so i replaced that with a energy suspension mount, broken shifter so replaced that with just a umi short throw until i find what shifter i want, blinker relay took a crap. lets see. ive done a hotchkiss adj. panhard bar, eibach sportline springs, new struts, suspension techniques sway bars, slp air lid, k&n filter, slp smooth bellow, air foil for the throttle body, flowmaster 40 series 2 chamber, breather on the valve cover, edelbrock 3 point strut bar, slp fan control, slp skip shift eliminator, umi k member, adjustable front lower a-arms, umi subframe connectors, aluminum driveshaft, i think thats it for performance so far. for stereo i went with a pioneer dvd player, all jl audio components front and rear co ax. on a jl audio 300/4. 2 jl audio 12w3 on a jl audio 500/1. ive only had this car for about 3 weeks so its came along way i think. heres some pix of what it looks like as of now...all comments and suggestions appreciated. thanks

                  a Firehalk hood would set it off.

                  Sportlines are to low no? I have the ProKit and My car is to low! Sportlines might not be the best choice for Auto-X Spring rate it not all that great. Im dropping my Eibachs and going with Strano! Lighter and higher spring rate.

                    Welcome!

                    Nice, clean looking car! Glad a Firebird needing work went to someone who appreciates the car and took the time to do it right.

                      Next to black, white is my favorite on F-body's.

                          yea the pro kit is a little low but i love the stance. im going to purchase some qa1 coilovers for it that are pretty much made for the track.im not going to do much of auto-x since thats all just in the parking lot with cones...doesnt spike my interest :P i love this car. by far the funnest car ive had in a long time. i live up towards santa rosa tho. and for the hood i was thinking about that extractor hood, or the ws6 hood. its kinda last on my priority list tho. this hood has been modded out so its ram air as well.
