Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
what did you end up going with on the rear end? switch to a 9" or 12 bolt?

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
New rear is a welded Moser'd 10-bolt. The 8.5s that came stock in the 2nd gens are about 95% as strong as a 12-bolt, and I already had a spare. The way it's built now is good to about 600hp and it only cost about $700 IIRC.

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
today i did a little interior work, i got a seat cover, foam and unbroken seat switch. easy as pie to replace, it took me longer to vacuum all those little yellow pieces of foam. i'm overall happy with the way it turned out i just need to find a factory radio as the one that was in there had 3 blown channels.




then i wiped down the engine bay as it was a little dusty.

i'm afraid to death to spray water on the motor, dont want to get that opti wet.

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
Those are the most comfortable seats I've ever had. I love 'em.

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
while not being as adjustable as the TA seats, they do seem to hold you pretty solid. and i do like the fabric

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
The interior looks like its in great shape to me. Any plans on swapping in black leather F body seats? Nothing wrong with the seats in there now, just curious. I've always liked the B4C Camaros, keep up the good work.

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
i'm keeping the cloth. if i did leather I would order leather seat covers because its nearly impossible to find good leather in the junkyard. but I like the cloth better anyways its more durable.
I dont have Berettas anymore, but I have ties to this website for over 12 years.

True...plus you don't have to worry about it burning the hell out of your legs on a hot day. I may have missed it, but are there any exhaust mods on it? If so, do you have any sound clips?
I sold my Beretta last fall and I still post here as well lol.

Re: my new freakin' haircut aka mullet
I cleaned up the thread per request of the original poster. And yes that included yours since it was in response to all the arguing. You did nothing wrong though. Next time PM a moderator to ask rather than posting in the thread. Just trying to keep things clean in here for the OP, and I extend that to anyone who has a thread with something in it they don't want.
