    So of course, my car is slow. :P no illusions of grandeur here. But I don't need to go too fast, I'm already accident prone as it is. I just want to scare people who decide its a good idea to ask me for a ride, and possibly watch my car eat small animals and children. Also, a name.

    lol but seriously, I need it to be mean. I've accepted the challenge and now is for the magic to flow, ideas people have wanted to try, that people have tried, etc. I'm thinking like cam or rockers, or both... plog, dp, and maybe some evil sounding mufflers. But which ones?!?! And I like driving a stick, so... 284? F40? Or one from a G6? Lots of work, I know.

    Expect a couple weeks of down time at least for the 5/6 speed swap...and lots of fabrication...and money spent. The 284 is a rare trans...made of the same things as hot women who are not crazy, love to cook, clean, drink beer, and have sex. The 6 speed F40 from the G6 requires some frame rail clearancing to get it to fit plus some aftermarket axles. If you want the car to scare someone, put me behind the wheel...Bill says I scare everyone.

    I autoX a grand prix. Doesn't get much more crazy then that. My buddy in a speed 3 didnt have the balls to keep up on a curvey road yesterday . Just ask snowthief or adecker. A fwd grand prix oversteering is a sight to see.

    sheiyst... I'm sitting in an 04 GP GT NA with 90k and a clean engine... the original coolant elbows aren't even leaking yet(still gonna replace, but :P) my plans are for a full chassis overhaul/modification/whatever I feel like when I get back to the states... right now Its a DD and I've been upside down behind the wheel already(nice windy German roads in a G-ma beamer), so I'm pretty sure my driving will scare anyone within a 2 mile radius. ANYWAYS... I think I'll hold off on swapping for a stick, cuz I might have a lead on a GTP here and IF(praying) it's decent I might have a simple drop-it-in-and-go situation. But still, it needs to look, sound and feel mean. Ideas?

    Ideas on that name change?

    I was thinking.... something with a random mix of letters and numbers. Totally random and a long string.
