So over the past year I've been deciding on cars. To buy a new one, keep my current, or etc? I planned on keeping my car and swapping in an L67, but after talking to Lucas, and Will I decided against it after much thought with their suggestions. So I applied for some new jobs to see if I can get a job somewhere making some more money. Yesterday I found out my persistence paid off. And I will soon be working at a car dealership making much more then McDonald's. So in a few months I will be selling my current 99SE and finding a 96-99SSEi. So thanks guys! In the meantime, I have no power steering and a bad engine mount I think. Anybody wanna come over and help soon? :helpsmilie:

This would be perfect.

Then the mods will come. Lucas and I have similar mods in mind for decklid swap and such. :btruestory:

I'll be more than happy to help, I may be a lil rusty on the eigth gens yet, but I can work around em pretty well... :btruestory: You have my phone number still right?
Congrats on the new job!
I'll be looking for a 96-99 SLE/SSE next year for winter and going away to school instead of going local...I worry about the limo too much as it is... :btruestory:

It just doesn't make sense to any of us...Why put an L67 in it, when an SSEi comes with it, and also the better suspension, brakes and transmission to handle it? I always say, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right...But to each their own is correct...

Congrats on the new job which you will be starting sometime soon! I sure hope your selling some GM's and not other "cars."

I sure hope you treat the new SSEi little better than you beat on this one....i guess it goes to show what these cars can handle..:P

:withstupid:
Treat it with respect and it'll respect you...That motor mount being bad may be that way for a reason... :poke: :joke: They can handle it only to a point....Once your trans says *fook* you...then you're up a creek without a paddle so to speak... :btruestory: :P
