Hooters

Isn't there a Hooters out by Lowes Motor Speedway?

Maybe they will open it up so we can take a hot lap. :D

Eddie
 
hell yes there is

Lowes is about a quarter mile from the hooters heck yea. About 5 or 7 miles from my house you can take 3 laps for I think 75 bucks . Lol kinda fun if you ask me.. Cant wait to get my bird finished the deck i was building and now need to finish sum windows and dad should have enuff to buy me my bird I so desperately want..!:) Im all smiles wat do yall think I should upgrade first im def gettin rims and sytstem but Im gettin intake and sum other stuff is there ne good body kits that dont look riced out?
thanks for all yalls help
 
Rice? Most of what's out there is made for rice. There are a few nice spoilers and hoods you can get, but the ground effects on these are about all I care to look at. I think anything more would be too much.

If you need a trans. work, see (big E) Eddie. :D
If you need a paint job, see Eddie. :D

If you need ways to spend money on your car without actually making improvents, see me. :eek:

LOL!!!!!!!!

Hope Eddie is able to come up to the Raleigh Hooters with y'all. Can't wait to meet everyone else.

Yes, the aod was stock in the SC. However, it is a better aod than ford put in their other cars, just because of the amount of torque it had to handle.

There are upgrades for the aod, such as torque convertors, valve bodies, shift kits, just to name a few.

Post some pics when you get them.
 
Ill be sure to post when I get it

I got to finish up some windows this week so I should have the money up by friday and I hope to go buy it possibly this weekend or next.. I want it so bad I can taste the bird's pedal under my foot lol! Cant wait to join the wonderful world of the sc.. also for 92 wat is the stock psi the supercharger puts out?? so the 92 comes with a aod tranny?
im thinkin bout buying a shift kit is it hard to put in.. also my friend juss got a blueovalchip from blueovalchips.com and its horrible its makin his car shift at 3,000 in 1st and 2500 in 2nd I mean come on now lol this is his third time sending custom chip back id avoid them and he payed 460 for the thing
 
The SCs were also available with a 5 speed. The 5 speeds are a little more rare and especially the 94/95s.

Sounds like your friend needs a better place to get his chip from.
 
amen

yes hes gettin is 460 bucks back and buyin it from sum1 else I guess I mean the guys been cool bout ti but it was supposed to be burned custom for his car he said its better but not wat he expected for the money.. but yea the guy has upped the price on my bird to 3,000 so I think im just going to fix my 87 camaro for now till I can get up some spare dough cuzz my dad is kinda slack with my paychecks but ill have it soon enuff!

That's a bummer that the guy raised his price. Maybe he'll come back down on it soon. Unless it's in mint condition, 3K is a lot for a 92. Mine is a 91 and I paid $1200 for it. Of course it did have high miles and a thing or two wrong here and there, but still nice and driveable.

As bad as you want it, don't pay too much more than what it is worth. There's always someone else selling theirs and you can get one for the amount you can afford. Good luck with it.
 
Price?

Were you looking at an SC from an individual or a dealer?

It sucks that he raised the price on you. Next time, see if the seller will sign a contract for the asking price.

I agree with Dave, 3K is a little too much for that ride. There will always be another one right around the corner.

I can't believe what some of the SC's around here go for. I am looking in the Auto Trader and there are 2 of them for sale. A 93 with 40K selling for $6,500.00 and an 89 with 71K selling for $5,400.00 :eek:

There was a gold 90 SC in my neighborhood that just sold for 3k and it had 71k on it. Whoever bought it got a very good deal. :D

As for some mods, I just got finished installing a 5% OD blower pulley and a 5% OD jack shaft pulley. My WOT boost went from around 7 lbs. to 13 lbs. and I love the sound of the blower got louder. :D

I've been burning up the parking lot at work just about everyday. I need some new rear tires, anyway. :rolleyes:

Next will be the CAI and the exhaust. I would like to have a little more torque on the bottom end.

If you think the blower is loud now, wait till you put on the cai. Glad you got some of your mods done. Did you do the exhaust yet?
