So I posted a thread on the old grand am owners club with pics of my car, never once did I state hey what do you guys think of it. Some people got on bashing the fact that i have a auto LS1. One guy gets on with a blown ford mustang GT saying that it is not fun to drive an auto sports car.. I replied and man these guys are just retarded they say their opinion I let them know mine they didn't like it so it went back and forth fuck that group of retarded inbreds.

Here's the link to the post. Man I am glad I don't own a grand am anymore that community is getting ridiculous. They don't get the fact that they need to say hey cool i woulda done this not auto? what were you thinking.. ohh and I am pretty sure my car can take a stock GT mustang seeing as how it already happened the other night then the guy with the blown gt was saying I should check my facts. hahaha dang some people need to grow up.

Done venting, would love it if that 30 yr old guy would come on the west coast and see what 6'6 215 lbs looks like and let him talk shit.

I too prefer manual transmissions, but I don't bash on automatic owners. Both of my cars are M6's and I can pull on stock A4 cars all of the time (gears also play a big role in that). To each his own, a lot of people prefer the ease and consistency of an A4.
And yes, you should be able to take stock GT's all day.

Yeah I like it cause the last time I drove a stick was my buddies S10 through downtown LA man that sucked the clutch was soo heated its not funny. I will get one but when this one is payed off then i will get the fun weekend toy. I love standard vehicles but not everyday. I shoulda known cause for the past 5 years I was on there they always would get on and bash people I sat there kinda as a mod bein like hey chill out say something nice or nothing at all we all have the same car and love ours differently. You wouldn't walk up to a guy and say damn your girlfriend is ugly as shit you would be like she seems nice. Ohh well whatever. Hahaha gotta love guys who think they are hot shit.

I got that too, both of my T/A's were auto when I bought them, and everyone was like "oh, well that means its slow and you don't know how to drive". Bitch please. I have since swapped both cars to M6 but only because of the horrible reliability problems I have had with the 4L60E. You'll never shut people up about that, just learn to say I DISAGREE.

LS1Adam84
12-18-2008, 12:50 PM
Ohh I said that and then more posts were made i was like really that means you had to have looked at the first page and maybe seen the posts about guys sayin auto suck and just want to start crap. Ohh well. yeah the 4l60e is a lot better the 4t45e that comes in the grand am, if i have to get it rebuilt well then I will be looking into getting higher stall and a nice build to make it a little better.

haha adam i wish i was your weight, ive got a few pounds over you.

yea that site can be frustrating at times, but its to be expected. since those cars went out of production a few years ago, you can only buy them used, and with them selling for $3-6, you can expect that the typical buyer would be high school age, or just out of high school. you shouldnt expect them to be too mature.

also, forums are there for talking shit. since theres not much a grand am owner can say about an LS1 F-body, they had to search, so they ended up with complaining about it being auto. i get shit on there about it too, yet the v6 grand am only came in auto, and 90% of the 4 bangers were auto.

I say just move on from them. they are obviously jealous (with the exception of the mustang dude, who has had a stick up his ass for years now).

I have heared it to about being a auto. I have owned manuals most of the years I have drivin. I just started to get into autos in the last few years. I have a fully built, Blown and Nitrous Mustang and would rather take out my Built & stalled Vette over the Mustang. Yes a stock auto is not that much fun. But a fully built & stalled auto is a blast to drive.

LS1Adam84
12-18-2008, 02:09 PM
Yeah I know Dave but really man I never talked that kinda crap about someones car I would always be like wow congrats nice ride I am not a fan of the wing or rims but hey man glad to see another car enthusiast.

Hahahaha I have one guy buying my suspension setup then I have another buying th CAI, now I just gotta get the other Adam to buy my GMS MAF I am giving him my EGR delete kit and my IAT sensor relocator for $100

i just read the conclusion of that thread. its all good that those two guys have sticks up their ass and speak of stuff they know nothing about (like some others that i know on other sites).

getting off topic, but still on topic for shit they were talking in that thread...they were questioning the authenticity of my car. I have openly offered to give out the number of Granatelli to call and ask him about my car. He openly speaks about it, and it was him, not me, who first brought up what the car is. Im getting sick of people refusing to verify whether its real or not, but just saying thats its not so.

hell what a stock LS1 runs in the 1/4 take about 3 grand or more of work on a GA so you buy one with low miles otherwise the engine sucks for 6 grand and spend roughly 3 grand on turbo and custom turbo setup you are running with an LS1 and then ga is not street legal at this poin because you have to delete your egr. So... buy an LS1 for lets say you find one with low miles at the price i got mine for 8200 and spend about a grand on it ok 1500 on it you now have one that doesn't get traction but runs a quarter in what should be the high 12's hmm still street legl?? yes then do h/c and if you don't have an LS6 buy one and run your car should now be in the 11's with some ET's and decent control arms all which is about 12-13 k worth of total car price.

So... needless to say even an auto LS1 will punish the crap out of a grand am and it will do it 2 seconds faster while maintaining street ability. gotta love V8. Hahaha

LS1Adam84
12-18-2008, 05:10 PM
Ohh and Daniel (ILMODC) umm yeah G6 is supposedly derived from grand am generation 6 so yeah you got a GA hahahaha. nahh G6 way better. Hows the wife liking it? why didn't you get the G8 just hold off and you coulda got it... geez. haha

haha so now i got into a PM battle with TA^guy. apparently he thinks im on some high horse since i got the camaro, but whats funny is that hes the only one who thinks that. i guess i could come off that way, but i dont see how. i mean come on, its one of the slowest v8 camaros out there, and im always willing to help out other people, no matter what the job is or what they drive.

i just hoep to get banned from that site now, that way i cant go back.

hahaha after my parts are gone I will start a massively fun and huge thread for shits and giggles. hahaha nahh I will just go on send a PM to kelley and say hey man I am done here people are getting out of hand and childish yeah I argue back but you say something to me I will react. See if he will just diable my account.

Wow, that TAguy sounds pretty bad ass with his 01 Xtreme S10. Those fender flares add an additional 50rwhp, and the X in the name helps free up the exhaust.

What a joke, sorry your thread got killed man.

This coming from a non-wimpy V8



thats the guy that made me laugh....


guess he has never been in a H/C stalled ls1???? or hell a stalled v8 for any matter.. i wonder if he knows that a stalled auto will walk all over a m6 at the track?

he is a fucking idiot... can someone please PM him this thread so he can talk to us?

i would love to show him how horribly slow my POS automatic is.. :devil:

wow... and to boot, hes driving a ford.. :gtfo:

I was pulling the same lap times or slightly slower than a pretty decently modified 94 GT at an autocross event. I didn't let him know my times though, or that my car is a V6 Firebird. :D Let it go man, they're just guys who blow tons of money trying to make their [slow when stock] family sedan go fast!

haha, they are slow when modified too. a buddy of mine has the fastest grand am, and its a 4 cylinder. i think he ran 12.6. fast for that car for sure, but hes the fastest (maybe someone has beat him, but if so, barely). for the msot part, the v6 guys run 15s.

the guy that caused the most issues was the S/Ced mustang guy. he has to know how slow those are stock, otherwise he wouldnt have needed a supercharger as soon as he bought the car.

i bet the mustang guy is still slow.. ask for times.....

yea...and its not worth it. you can see a big difference going there and comparing it to here. i think thats why they get all bent out of shape whenever anyone sells their grandma and gets a fast car. they spend soo much money to get their cars from the low 16s into the mid 15s.

these are the top 8 grand am/alero/malibus....
1) SpyhunteR - 12.413 @ 112.30 MPH - timeslip
2) Schweppe23 - 12.940 @ 108.23 MPH - No Slip
3) tejohnson - 13.475 @ 108.43 - timeslip
4) SPAZ - 13.73 @ 102.70 MPH - timeslip
5) N2O-OLDS - 13.838 @ 98.09 MPH - timeslip
6) PACE - 13.86 @ 96.10 MPH -no slip
7) botlfed - 13.92 @ 96.52 MPH -no slip
8) xonelith - 13.991 @ 99.13 MPH - timeslip

i guess my buddy got a better time than i remember. that car is NOT streetable by any stretch of the imagination.

um... first off, its 2.4L with a 5 speed manual. he has a custom built intake manifold, LS1 throttle body, GT30R turbo, 38mm TiAL wastegate, custom turbo manifolds, and i believe a built motor. the clutch and flywheel were prototypes, i know that. hes selling the stuff, with plans for a GT4088R turbo with a standalone computer.

he was putting 432hp to the wheels, his new plans will include 600+ to the wheels.

Yeah I understand that I would love an M6 but after driving my buddies truck I just didn'y want to have to deal with it. I may buy another LS1 camaro with an M6 at some point and either turn my current one into the track car or the next one we will see. My plans though are for a track car 74-75 camaro and building a 383 for it with a th400 tranny and 12 bolt rear. I may get a four link setup on it so I get some traction. I will see when I get there.
