Default Hello, I am a new one here!!!!

Hi there my name is Justin,
I new to this site. I had just purchased a 99 30th anniversary trans am ws6 the day after Christmas. I was able to purchase the car for $19,000 and the cars value in the Nada was $24,000 - $36,000 and the one I have is totally in mint condition. I got lucky #1008 out of 1600. I have one of the ones with the hurst shifter. I had decided to get this car, because I needed more power in a car. I still have but I only drive it during pizza delivery; a 2003 Tiburon GT. It was pretty fast at first, but not as fun and as fast as the WS6. Now my WS6 is my baby and the Tiburon is my **** kicker. I was just writing in to say hi and had on question so far. I added a 3 year extra warrenty on the car when I purchased it. I was wondering what would it void if I put in 4:10 gears and were is the best place and price to get these at?

Welcome aboard, and research a lot before buying something that way you don't buy something that doesn't work or that you don't want

Here are some better pictures of my car and I appreciate the responses of my car, it was just pure luck and timing on getting this car. By the way the car has 55,000 miles on it right now and still runs strong and smooth.

If you just look at your car with mods on the brain, GM will void your warranty.
I've read several posts and alot of them are saying that GM, tries to find any and every excuse to void your warranty. This is why I try to keep all of my stock stuff, even if it is replaced by performance mods.

Oh yeah WELCOME
