what makes the people that work at chevy more stupid than say people who work at a honda factory?
are you saying GM engineers are stupid? GM has come out with a hundred times more innovative ideas, concepts, and realities than anyother manufacturer

And they come out with cars that people buy new thinking there car looks "cool and new". Then 4 years later when the new modles have came out. your 4 year old car is now the most ugly vehicle you could find. making people think they should get a new car. This might not be true, but i also beleive that they design there electrical components to fail after a certain amount of time and other small minor things. Not enough to make the car not road worthy, but just enough to make the car undesireable to the owner. If thats true, thats some pretty damn good engineering on gm's part. Designed failure isint exactly the easyest thing.

just like everyother auto manufacturer little electrical parts like that are outsourced and made somewhere else. any lack of quality in those parts is probably due to the gook making them for 3 cents an hour.

Re: Scratch one Trans Am LT1
Lt1s are rated at 285. Enough to put a nice hurting on the 99+ 4.6 mustangs. I don't see what is so "slow and garbage" about them. Why are you so happy that your modded 300zx beat one. Maybe on stock boost, but your car stock everything including boost would be right next to a stock 6 spd lt-1...

Re: Scratch one Trans Am LT1
this video always makes me laugh, not an lt1 but still up agaist a modded 300zx

scott just come to terms that the 300 zx is a heavy pos that any gasket change is a 3 hour flat rate job

Re: Scratch one Trans Am LT1
A lt1 is crap, come to terms with that, the Z is a heavy *** car no doubt, but the engine is strong. a rb25det is just about as strong, and in a s13 chassis it will be ------ fast. keep doubting me because its just more feul for the fire. im going to kill supercharged SS's and mustangs all day.
