Burban's 2001 GT

Burban · 01/21/2010, 12:32 PM

Hey guys thought I would finally get around to making a thread about my car

I have had my 01 GT for 2 years now, I bought the car when I was 18. Just in the past few months I really started to put on some mods.

Exterior
clear 3rd brake light
Whiteout/clear corners
Black TYCs
17" Focal Wheels
Painted Fake Grill vents

Suspension
Megan Racing Lowering springs
Rear Strut Bar

Engine
axle back exhaust
AEM CAI
Fidanza Lightweight flywheel
F1 Stage 2 Clutch
Ingalls ETD

Interior
Megan Racing Short Throw
Red LED conversion
Dash Trim Kit (came on the car)
Alpine Headunit

Future Mods (in order of being put on)
Megan Headers
Catback Exhaust
Sonar Headlights
CF Interior pieces
New Front bumper
WW Lip kit
Possibly new paint

These are some older pictures of my car. I'm at school right now and will upload newer pictures when I get home.

Please feel free to post your thoughts

Looks pretty clean. I'd suggest new headlights and clear corners next.
I don't mind the wheels. Though I think they'd look much better in 18's. Good work

That's a clean car you got there. Keep it up.

Lookin' good, keep us posted on the mods

thanks guys!

As far as the wheels are concerned, they were on the car when I bought it and never really thought they were awful enough to change them.
And the corners have been upgraded as well to clear all the way around........ New pics will be coming as soon as I get home from school

b-e-a-u-tiful. its a good looking car in pictures and in person. i really liked the red led int lights swap. i think it looks sick personally. debadge the v6 and such and i think it would look great. headlights you have on future mods will look great. and yes clear corners will pull it all together. i do think you need to repaint those fake vents tho. they are a little dull it looks like. other than that looks amazing

other than that did you replace the struts?

and whose chevy?

thanks man
Debadging the V6 and GT will be coming soon. The clear corners are already on it. and the vents have been painted.

The struts have not been replaced, but as soon as money allows I will be getting some upgraded struts.

The chevy belongs to a buddy I went to high school with and his blazer was fully bagged. I was going to invite him to the meet at discover mills but I didnt think a minitruck would fit in with the group

darkmind0869 · 01/21/2010, 02:24 PM

it wouldn't have bothered me honestly. i cant wait to see this car again. if you want some help with the debadge let me know i got a good heat gun makes quick work of those badges lol. and no paint is not harmed in the process. just let me know. and we need to get another meet for the monthly thing in the next 2 - 2 1/2 weeks

Burban · 01/21/2010, 03:19 PM

So I found some newer pictures, not the newest ones but much more recent than the other ones

EZT · 01/21/2010, 03:21 PM

Looks nice to me.

Burban · 02/08/2010, 11:35 AM

We just had a GA meet up at the lake yesterday and so here are some pics

then things got interesting

I took this one this morning...had to stop by my church, we are building a new church

martin m · 02/08/2010, 11:37 AM

nice new meet pics

darkmind0869 · 02/08/2010, 01:08 PM

you not take anypictures of your decal lol. btw i still have yet to put mine on

HIJACKER · 02/08/2010, 01:13 PM

Looking at the photos makes me think of how interesting the video would've been if it was caught on film with one of the cars parking brakes failing as it slowly rolls into the lake. That would completely suck - but the video would be a YouTube hit.

shata · 02/08/2010, 01:13 PM

I like it looks very nice, seen better rims but they look alright. I wouldn't make it a priority getting new ones.

We were all joking about that. We also wanted a junker that we could crash into the lake, just to see the splash and make a video.
