Things that make you go HUMMMMM!
Quick question or questions.
Before you run to get the parts be honest
What's the milage on your G. (basic maintenance)
What have you done to have it in great or good conditions to accept these new and heavy duty modification (turbo / tranny) (cause you're gona want to start all this stuff on a good platform).
If someone whished to take your G on a joy ride what would stop them?(alarm)
If you get the tranny and the turbo how well will your Gs brakes stop your new found speed and strength. (brakes)
And will you curve right out of the road with a near factory suspension? (strut bar, sway bars, springs, struts etc.)
Minor Example: The tranny shifts well but because your timing belt broke its only shifts in your driveway.) These are things that make you go HUMMM!!
No black cloud here,
Just looking out for a member so that you wont end up cursing and hating the project and worst of all, selling and leaving TGC.

well its got 88k on it...im not sure what was done b4 the dealer had it...ive had it since 82k and ive done 2 oil changes so far...put an intake on it...new muffler...havent changed plugs or nething yet i should do that...my brakes r in good condition im not sure how close to going they are though..i know i think about this stuff all day...thinkng to myself do i really wanna turbo this sucker...the more i think about it the more i just want to upgrade the suspension and MAYBE do a 5 speed swap and just leave it at that...cuz 88k is kinda high.
