I miss driving my Iroc

its a good thing I don't have a transmission else I might have to put everything back together. been thinking of going N/A for a while just so I can get the Iroc back on the road sooner.

oh im already have plans for another swap LS2000 what do you guys think

I say put your LS-mix together as is now and get it running, its easy to change later to upgrade to the turbo system. I know I hella miss my iroc too I drove wills the other day and omg it was so fun.

I hear ya bro, when my car was down for less than a month I was having a bad case of "burnout withdrawl".

Why don't you just get yourself a box and slap it together N/A so you can drive your car and buy the boost stuff later.

Not if he already has all the N/A stuff IMHO.

If not, sure why not spend a little more for the boosted stuff.

I guess it all comes down to what you have and what you want to spend T-$$$ my bro!

I say put her on the road like yesterday! We need an excuse for another bowling meet hahahahhaa

Try waiting almost 4 years to drive your car....

Feels real good to get back behind the wheel.
