C and G get togethers
I would be interested in a Detroit meet up. I'm sure I could get Mightymouse out of his mouse hole for the event as well.

Camaro SS Manual Trans Questions...
This applies for fbodys, but the concept should be the same. These conditions must be met (the numbers might not be exact, but they are close enough): In first gear 35% or less throttle Between 15 & 21 mph Coolant temp above 170* F When those conditions are met a solenoid energizes, not allowing the shifter to be put in 2nd or 3rd. There are a few ways it can be eliminated: Unplug the wiring harness from the solenoid. This will throw a DTC Insert a 2.2K ohm resistor in the wiring harness Pay $30 for a fancy harness plug with a resistor in it Disable it with PCM tuning software h h

Schuby87 Fleet Update
Yeah, I don't think that I could have gotten a better winter car. I really like it a lot, especially the digital instrument panel. Plus, it sure beats driving the Trans Am in the snow! That sucked big time!

Schuby87 Fleet Update
I have been really busy lately with school and work so I haven't had the time to post as much as I would like. Anyway, here is a quick update... Here is how the Trans Am has looked since October - This has been my winter ride for the last few months. 1991 Buick Riviera - 157k miles, Series 1 3800, I put in a new head unit and speakers, nice cushy seats.

You can use other types of antifreeze, just don't mix it with the Dexcool. One or the other.

Did you have any tuning done to support the extra boost?

Is it safe to say winter is over?
The mid 40's we are supposed to have next week are very welcome after the negative numbers we have been waking up to this week.

Seen any good plates lately?
I still want BADFNTA (Bad F'in TA) but I dont know if it will get past the SOS.

I think that is a little expensive for the miles it has on it and no mods. Stick to your TA pipedream.

Should I buy it...
Everyone keeps saying that the t top car lose a ton of rigidity, but I don't really think that's the case. The hardtop cars have the exact same support under sheet metal roof that the t top cars do. I can see them loosing a little bit of rigidity, but nothing that should cause problems. Like I said before, the positive outweigh the negatives IMO.

Should I buy it...
I would recommend a Pontiac over a Camaro. Looks better and has a better interior IMO.

Should I buy it...
Some people have problems with them, but I haven't. Every couple months I put dielectric grease around the windows to keep them moist and sealing nicely. They might dribble a little with a power washer directly on it. I think that the positives way outweigh the negatives. Don't get me wrong, it looks like a nice car, especially if you are in the market for only a v6. LS1 prices have dropped because of the economy, gas prices, and the time of year. I haven't really been paying attention to the used v6 market.

Anyone else notice how many Pontiac
Yup! We are Fuel for the Soul. errrr Designed for Action. errrr We are driving excitement. errrr We build excitement. That's all I've got off the top of my head.

Should I buy it...
Well, as a current owner of an F-Body I have to say that having t tops is one of the single greatest things about the car! Spring and summer nights with the t tops off I can drive around for hours. I think that 6K is still a little pricey, even though it does have moderately low miles. If you watch for a good deal, especially with this time of year and economy, you could be looking at LS1 territory.

Another cool GM billboard
I am a big fan of the posters at chevymall.com! I currently have 3 of the Camaro posters framed and hanging in my bedroom, the Ain't No Muscle Like Detroit Muscle, Where Old Woodward Meets New Woodward, and the Only Two Wishes Left. Two of those caught my eye because they were the giant ads that GM had on the side of a building at the Dream Cruise. I really like the slogans on the posters with the classics too, especially the Camaro SS one that says What Would You Expect From a City with a Statue of a Fist?

Post Your Olds!
Did you always have the hood stripes? They look really good!

Firehawk Returns!
No, that would be dumb. Like bringing back the Firehawk name for a G8.

Cell Phones
I have the 3G iPhone on AT&T. I don't seem to have all these problems that everyone else is having. Where I live is solidly covered with 3G, so the data speed and call quality is great. The price for the data plan is kinda steep - $30 a month.
