Hey SGers,

I am not really new to the forum exactly. I have been a registered member since September 2008. I finally got a message to Mole and got things straightened out with my e-mail, so I haven't been able to log in until now. I owe a big thanks to jetbtkng for getting me in touch with the right guy and being so helpful. Boy am I happy to be here!

Anyway, I have a 1999 SE V6 Auto. It has about 114000 miles on it and I absolutely love it, as far as mods, you guys probably won't be very impressed but I'll tell you anyway. It has an ebay intake I bought for about $20 a few years back, with an AEM dryflow filter and an aluminum restrictor I fashioned to keep it from turning on the CEL. the only other performance mod it has is a Magnaflow muffler I had installed about a year ago. Honestly, it sounds awesome. I usually do all the work myself, other than the muffler since I don't have a tubing bender. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I recently installed a TDR RSB. That is def. an awesome mod, got it brand new in box for $107.34 shipped.

I also have some nice audio equipment installed, Infinity Kappas all around and a Pioneer Head unit attached to a Profile amp (700w peak). It sounds very nice, my brother and I installed the audio stuff ourselves.

By the way I am an Automotive/Diesel student and have some great resources at my disposal. I have actually had the car on our dyno at school. Not real impressive numbers, but more than I was expecting. I'll upload the graph for you guys if you want?

Well thats my car in short. There a lot of other little mods I did to it that I will tell you all about later. Sorry if the intro is a little long but I have a lot to share. And don't worry pics are going to be on here soon. :D

:evilbat: Welcome to SG :evilbat:

:up: :up:

Two thumbs up on the Gen 1. The Gen 1 is my fav of all the Gens.
You seem like you know what you want out of you Lara. Thats good, cuz I know I didnt when I got mine. Then again I didnt find this place till years later after buying my Lara. I would have to thank Solarange for linking me to SG.

The best places to post up an image would be www.photobucket.com or www.imageshack.com

Once you upload to either one those free sites copy the IMG code and paste it in your thread.

Now lets see some pics of that beautiful Gen1. 8)

Hey thanks LEE337.

I also agree on the Gen 1, although I like the 1.5 a bit as well. I usually know what I want for my car, right now I want an Injen SRI and OBX headers. And NGK plugs and wires. Also need some fluids changed. Maybe Eibach and Tokico by springtime.

I got the photbucket account, but I can't figure out how to actually post an image I'm sure I'll get it later. For now I posted the link.

After I clean the car a little I'll get some pics up, it looked really good about a week ago. BTW it looks like you did a real good job repairing your front end, looks sweet.

Heeeeeey, nice lookin' Gen2 you've got there.

Well, I just bought an Injen SRI on ebay. It's used and black, should arrive within a week. 8) Does anyone want a used MAF sensor?
