I would say cat maybe? If it's a 97 hope its nothing to do with the tranny....

I have a 98 trans in my garage id just have to rebuild it or install and flush it cause it was running when i swapped it for my tep trans
05-03-2010
Well, if thats the problem, there ya go. buy it, fix it, make it look good and I'm sure some noob will buy it over-priced haha
05-03-2010
yea ill probably make it run good detail it and post it on craigs for 2500 or so i dunno yet depends what it costs to fix the issues
05-03-2010
Heres pics of it
shes firm at 900 but that includes a tow
said they still drive it just mainly in town
05-03-2010
the exhaust tips are twisted...
maybe somebody tried to replace something in the exhaust and dicked it up? have you seen the car?
05-03-2010
it'd need new tails else you'd NEVER get what you're looking for it.
Obvious things count to people when buying.
05-03-2010
no she just sent a couple pics
My bet is the cat i see alot of gps with jacked tips
theres a couple dents in it but over all i think with a little tlc and couple hundred in parts she will be a good little runner
ill list it for 3000 and let someone pay me 2200 ish
05-03-2010
tails arent an issue ill probably get some cheapy ebay ones
clean up and straighten the tips
clean up the dents detail it throw a univ cat on it and a tune up clean the engine bay and a coat of wax
I mean if all goes to plan
05-03-2010
yeah, it should solve that issue.
05-03-2010
it would be a nice weekend project. i say go for it if you're really interested in flipping cars. seems like a good place to start, with a car you know pretty well.
and i just read your sig, i'm impressed at the numbers your making. how much do you think you have in that setup?
05-03-2010
a lot.... he's stripped the block down and had a machine shop have its way with it so new everything.Originally Posted by Poil336

engine ill say alittle over 3k tep trans 1500+ exaust 400 with pems when they get here
and bought the car for 2k
and all the other bsaround 8k total
And yea i can work on anything its just these cars are simple to work on
im also triing to find cars people like i think a 2dr gp will appeal to more then a few people
05-03-2010
yea i have a lot of wrench time in on it and a few thousand miles on it and all still purring... still need a3.0 pulley,dp, meth and a big brake set up
i make things go fast worry about braking later
05-03-2010
12 inchers with stock calipers with good pads should be more than enough braking power.
Get C5's for brake feel, F body's for cheapness.
05-03-2010
ill see how this flippin thing goes before any more cash goes in to mine
i wouldnt even have bought the pems b ut my front mani has a 3 inch crak in it
05-03-2010
cracked mani.... thats a new one to me.
05-03-2010
its cast i splash through puddles lol when i pulled it during my build i welded 3 cracks but after i ported them i noticed a nice crack going down the midlle
05-03-2010
wow... i bet it's all worth it when it puts you back in the seat though lol.
and my noobness is showing: not familiar with the term "pems". ported exhaust manifolds?
