Aftermarket parts for 1998 Buick ??
I have a 1998 Buick Regal SC...where can I find aftermarket stuff for this car?
Spark plugs-not OEM(delco) but OE replacement... a better one that can handle more boost(future plans)...
But more imporant than that:
Supercharger coupler-aftermarket
a larger pulley(for future mods)
etc..
Who sells aftermarket Buick Stuff. Im searching and cannot find any..
Thanks...

I already have a pretty quick Z28.. and this is my 2nd car..
It had cooling issues, so its at a buddy of mine's shop and they said they have to take off the intake manifold.. so while its off, I was thinking to change the coupler and change the spark plugs...
a pulley will be a future mod...

Im just gonna change the spark plugs and coupler for now..
Im just curious though...
What pulleys do most guys go with, for some extr apower, but safely??
Im considering it very soon, since they appear pretty cheap!!
edit:
I mean a damn intake manifold is 100 and hell, thatll be worth it for a few whp, my manifold is already old...
and the pulleys ar elike under 100 bucks

My blower has to come off, for them to take off the intake or some crap..
So I wanna know this in advance, Im gonna get a coupler and change the plugs... if I change the coupler, thats ALL I have to change, right?
I dont wanna start a project right now, and also, where can I find instructions, I dont have alldata...
(what forum do these buick guys go on??)

You don't need a puller or any special tool.Remove the supercharger drain plug and using a syringe remove the supercharger oil located in the snout. Remove the supercharger snout and you'll see the coupler. Remove the old one and place in the new one. Make sure to apply some bearing grease on the coupler holes.You can buy everything on ZZperformance.com
I changed the coupler on my brothers 98' GTP and it was real easy.
