[oddworx]

Hey all, I just joined this message board, and look forward to bieng on it way too much. Anyways I just bought a 1996 camaro, the fuel gage is stuck way above full, drivers side window will not move, radio display does not work I think thats about it. Oh yeah which stangs should I race, and which should I opt out of. Thanks

probably window motor~ $ more then you think
gas gauge~ dont have a clue
what stangs to race~ easy killer, any idea what gears/diff you have?

any previous mods done?
check the mod encyclopedia for all the "free" mods you can do, definatly want to do intake/exhaust first.

Im gonna check out the encyclopedia, as for the window Im pretty sure it needs a new motor, I think I know where a parts car is, so I should be okay with that. Also what are the main differences between maros and bird?

[firebird1]

birds are cooler :D , other then that, no difference

maybe look into getting all the fluids changed, dont believe what people tell you,

Don't fix the gauge. If it's stuck above full you'll never run out of gas. :D

HeHe, Kinda the the same concept as my screw me im irish shirt.

dont believe what a company tells you ull get out of a certain mod, make sure you know what kind of gains you should expect. a cold air intake isnt going to give you 20 hp on a near stock car.

Sounds like my car. I picked it up for 2000 and it had a few problems. Just be sure to do all of the routine maintenece like changing oil, oil filter, air filter, plugs, plug wires, fuel filter ect... I kinda like having to do all this cause i can work on my car with very little money. The radio can be replaced by best buy for like $100, the window motor is an easy change but maybe expensive, and just watch your trip meter and refill the gas every 150 miles to be safe.
