Re: Who\'s got the Gen 1 in Aruba?!
Scott i agree, a Viper would be a PITA down there
Keith, honeymoon was awesome! it was my first time to Aruba & I'll definitely be back :2tu:
Re: Who\'s got the Gen 1 in Aruba?!
thanks Bo, that makes sense..i saw the car right past the Renaissance Hotel where the Seaport Casino is. its pretty sweet there is only 1 on the island & i spotted it :D
Who\'s got the Gen 1 in Aruba?!
after seeing nothing but 3 or 4 cylinder cars there for over a week I was amazed to a red Gen 1 come blazing down the strip :laugh:
license plate was 'POP' - i wonder if the owner visits this board??
after seeing cars with straws for exhaust pipes that viper...
car looks great Phil..
were you heading westbound on 287 on Saturday around 2-3pm?? (across from the Palisades Mall) - saw a really clean silver GTS, not sure if it was you, i was going eastbound. could of been Steve too, not sure if it was an ACR.
exactly what Mitch said
it also depends how much you wanna drive it. if you're gonna do like 10-15K/yr on it, the Gen 1 window issue will be a pain.
the Gen 1s have sidepipes though, & those kick azz! :headbang:
Re: \'99 GTS emblems and exhaust leak
where more specifically does the leak sound like its coming from?
as far as the emblems go, when i replaced mine i think Tator told me 6 inches from the bottom of the hood (where it meets the side sill), centered.
yeah its obviously bowing up more in the center from catching all that air coming in. 1/4 to 1/2" is way too much, i'd suggest just getting new pins. if i were you i'd call Northwind & sell your old pins on ebay. somebody may need them for a hardtop or whatever.
i was confused too. when i ordered them Northwind faxed me a sheet that i had to fill out for specs on my current size pins & how much i needed them to change. they made me a set exactly to my specs. apparently between 92-96 there was alot of variation in the sizes.
you're gonna need to...
btw, i also ended up with a new top off a 96 that had even shorter pins than the 95. the bottoms (where they would fit into the window frame) were even different shapes.
the rear pins all were the same size though. at the time i think Northwind wanted like $80 for the set. hope this helps...
94 & 95 pins lengths CAN vary. i had a top from a 95 on my 94 at one point & the front pins were different lengths. not by much, but just enough so that I couldn't get the latch to fasten onto the windshield frame.
I called Northwind Engineering & they shipped me proper size pins.
\'like new\' 96 GTS
found this on the 'bay.. opening bid seems fair..
