B&M sells drain plug kits. I'm still kicking myself for not having one on my pan. Sure would have been nice if GM would have put them on in the first place.Barry wrote:Did you weld some threads inside that pan I hope?

Re: 1996 Mr.Pink
odly enough I didn't bring my camera... and I'm not that disapointed... I'll see if there are any online though.
The car show was very "Club" "clique" type... Subaru's, Civics, and tons of other imports, not as many domestics but a decent amount.
You can BARELY see my bumper in the last picture in this video, I was right behind the Chrysler.

Re: 1996 Mr.Pink
I wasn't really that impressed and didn't think to take photos... My mind was more on getting the car in one piece and making sure everything was running right. This was more of a test run for the car than it really was for the showing aspect of it, since honestly not many there could respect a Beretta.99GaGT3X00 wrote:you got your phone don't you.![]()

Re: 1996 Mr.Pink
So far so good... It's much tighter than the other one, and more like the difference I expected to feel when I had PDQ rework that one. This is rated at 3600 stall the other one was 3k and it felt horrible in comparison. Its much more street friendly too, I have yet to really romp on it since now the 12" brakes are on, but once I get the N-body's back on I'll see what she feels like.

You'd think being one and only SOMEONE would have taken a shot of it...

Re: 1996 Mr.Pink
That is all typical. When ever I go out and drive to those "events" I get the same feeling. Even though I crap on 80% of them performance wise. Guess not having a gaudy wide body kit and hellaflush stance makes me not "in" .

Re: 1996 Mr.Pink
Yeah pretty much... I could have brought my legacy and then parked over in the Subaru section but the issue with that is its just a Stage 2 legacy.... its not special in any way... hell it looks 100% stock outside so I figured why bother, yet there were n/a legacy's there with big booming systems and that was the only mod... LOL
I really thought car shows like that were a fad and gone, but I guess not, rice lives on.
I think I'll stick to local small shows where people will appreciate the lope and not ask why it idle's like that... LOL

I gave up trying to get beretta respect at gay parking events. It's all about driving now

Re: 1996 Mr.Pink
Yeah. Spanking the other cars is a lot more fun than parking next to them. There are lots of big blocks in my car club that I can smoke!
