I recently purchased a 98 GTS with a blower on it. Just seeing if anyone is familiar with this car I just had a few questions about it. Thanks:drive:

Woahhhh, I think its safe to say EVERYONE here knows that car. Hope you got a good deal on it. Do a search to see its "history". Good luck!









Ok, that was mean. No, I don't know the car. But have fun and be safe with it!!

I don't know about the car but it does look like one that was offered on eBay not too long ago. If it is the same one, I remember reading a few posts about it but can't find the posts now.

Just wanted to see if anyone on here had hands on with this car I will more than likely do my own tuning on the car after I change the split second PCM. it was offered on E-bay of coarse I did'nt give close to what they we're asking;) Could of made 8g's on it the first day But I just purchased it to have something new to play with.:drive: I did a search before I purchased it and everything was clean on it cali-car. Papers I recieved with it claim 213 in the mile. I'll believe that when I do it.:2tu:

Nice ride , get it on the dyno and check the A/F , make sure it is tuned and not too lean. It will run hard for years with a good tune.

It has the split-second management system on it and the A/F guage on it but flutters all over the place, Like most F/I cars do. I will probably change this to an AEM PCM and do my own tuning.:2tu:

Has alot of upgraded performance parts on it. Really is a clean car for 10 years old. Drives good, But the A/C did'nt work:dunno: good thing I own an A/C company found the bad freon line and alredy repaired it. I only automotive A/C on my own:headbang:

Just asking, do you have the blue car with what looks like the same set up as mine. The pics i have seen of the blue car looks very similar. If so what PCM are you using to tune your car?

That one was for sale on ebay. Reserve was $39500. Thet was a steal. How does it run?
It was me that ended up with the car. It has a few issues. Runs out good plenty of power. i will address the issues I'm sure it is mostly in the last tunner of this car I will be changing the PCM to an AEM or VEC will do a little research on the avaiable products first before I make any decisions. Thanks for posting the price:mad: I might want to sell it to someone on here later for more. JK:lmao:

Like everyone else on here, I've seen that car on ebay a long time ago but I recalled some people saying it had some issues which was why the reserve was so low. Well, guess you figured that out now, doy!

Good luck man, looks really nice.

I do all the work and tuning on all of my cars and the only issues I really have found with the car. Was (1) a/c was'nt working because of a hole in the suction line.[which I have already repaired] and (2) the car wants to idle alittle high after you have been driving around like 2000rpm's then settles right back down in just a second or two. I'm sure this can be fixed easily with a little tuning as soon as I put on the new AEM or VEC Probably the sc forcing the air in and the PCM tring to compensate by adding fuel.. Thanks for the input though.. Have put around 250miles on car drives out great..:drive:
