FInally I ditched the Cobra R's. Got an amazing deal on these that I couldn't pass up. Cragar S/S 18x9's with Kumho 245/40 YR18's up front and 275/35 YR18's out back. I LOVE them, now its off to the paint booth next week.

Sorry about that. Just hook it up as it shipped. The balance tube is installed in the housing already.

No problem Steve.
Post your results and thoughts on it in the vendor forum. Make sure when you install it the negative cable was diconnected, this way the car will re learn the airflow properly.

Geno...I gotta ask...is the color of your car a dirivitive of the factory 95 code:TA ? aka.. "Chameleon Blue"???

I ask only because it slightly resembles the 95 we just picked up.

Of course, your paint is 200x sharper...but i cant help but notice the flip-flop purple to blue.

The new cragar's are a definate fit for that car. Much meaner look. The Cobra's looked fine, but were too 'clean'...the musclular appearance of that car, with the cowl hood, and slamma-jamma stance was crying out for a badass wheel like the cragar. Nice choice. well done.

ONEBADMK8
April 7th, 2005, 10:14 AM
Yes it is a very similar. This is House Of Kolors Chameleon Blue. It has more silver and a bit more flip to it. The car you have is EXTREMELY RARE! Less the 200 95's were that color.

I know! isnt that amazing? Funny thing is, the pic of it didnt look anything like it before we went to see it. It looked more like the 94 Rose mist. This is the car we found for $1000 with a broken #3 exhaust valve spring. Tore the valvecover off, replaced the spring, and it runs like new. set of plugs, tranny upgrade(1-2 assembly/mercon V), and it drives like a low-mileage car.

I dont care for the uni-directional wheels, and the color has TOO much purple(nothing like your car's purple)...but knowing its rarity, it will be hard to part with.

anyway... good show. thanks. What's instore for your car's next color?

ONEBADMK8
April 7th, 2005, 10:41 AM
Don't know yet. Maybe the same color but with some sickass ghost flames.

Geno, your ride is hot but why not go for a different color scheme, like green to blue and ditch that purple. car would look sick with those rims and it'd be something new, which you obviouslly wanna spice things up a bit
