Dear god.... I can't tell you how jealous I am. Simply amazing

That car is smokin'! 84/85 GNs are perfect for LS swaps.

amazing...very nice car A++

I wanted to hate it because I think a GN should always be a turbo 6, but I just can't. It definitely got better when I saw that there was still a turbo sitting under hood.

if it makes anyone feel better the old turbo 6 motor was in there for many year and rewarded me with 9 second et's, lol here is a pic of the old motor. it was time to move on as pushing that 6 in the 9's always ended up with me breaking it.

Wow that GN looks insane bro,

one day i will have one, Beautiful car and very clean build

Very cool!!!

Amazing... nicest one ive seen. Whats it run 1/4?

^^^^^^^Felt the same way until I viewed all the pics..Great Job...You did the Old Girl justice with that build..

Your GN has a tremendous amount of great character, dude! If you haven't done so already, you should submit pictures of it to some car magazines like "GM High-Tech Performance" for display in the readers' rides section. Great job!

have been in talks with someone from GMHTP about the car but no bites at the moment for anything with it. i have ran it in the 1/4 and on 19psi and pump gas its been in the mid 150's mph wise at 3700lbs. ony had a couple of passes before lap top died on me and i could not datalog it with the boost turned up. thanks for the kind words so far guys hope to be at track again soon with the boost turned up a couple pounds and with the newly installed trans brake. i threw this thread up in the FI sectin as well for the turbo guys

My cousin has a 85' GN and I'm tempted on doing a build. Awesome looking GN.

sweet baby jesus that thing is awesome!

Not a one out there more beautiful!

Excellent ride with one bad ass motor.....

Drool!

That scream dollar signs lol,killer ride

Awesome car!!

My thought's exactly.

What trans is in it? And what's the best time on the new setup?

at the time it was a th350 but now has a built th400 with a trans brake...et sucked with the foot brake but went into the 150mph+ range on all passes with pump gas/meth and 19psi. hoping to go back to track soon......

Pure beauty. I want one pretty bad.

wow thats amazing i wouldnt change a thing

i dont consider her to be a show car as she has the usual markings of a race car and a car that gets driven alot during the year. does not help cruising with freinds that have on slicks kicking rocks up at my 300 dollar paint job but did a local car show 40 minutes from home in the 93 degree heat and won a little trophy...

I thought I didnt like these cars very much but yours has definitely changed my mind.. its set up perfect! I want one bad now! haha

So I know this shouldn't be even a question but what type of mileage did u get

I'm in love....:nod:

i really have no clue on the mileage to be honest....hell i drive around with the back tires aired down just in case lol lol

Man, that is one hell of a ride. I have always loved the look of G-body's.

SWEET RIDE!!!!!! :usa:

Fap~...

id still rather see it with the 6. personally id never small block swap a true gn or t-type, too many regals to ruin a good turbo buick, but the car is sick, to each his own i guess.

as i stated it is my first car i ever had for racing so it has to many memories to let it go and do another car and not enoiugh funds to have 2 cars. after running in the 9's with the time bomb 109 block i had to move on after a decade of it

Dear Jesus thats a BAD BITCH

Beautiful car.

Your shit is slow. Haha. Only pic I have of your car man

why are your two gauges upside down?

being 6'5" and looking down at those guages is rough they are easier to see upside down for me lol

bump for a car I beat 3 x's in a row..
carry on..

lol you know you should tell the whole story...racing off a light still goes more then 400 feet lol

Your not located in Texas by chance are you?

I love it! only thing I would change is going back with a stock style hood but thes just my .02

keep an eye out in the january edition of GMHTP....4 page feature, im excited to see it in print and all the stores

Very clean install :hump:

I've always liked G-body's and the GN 's are top shelf.

I loathe automatics but GN is the only car I'd ever make an exception for :hail:

Automatic + turbo LSx = stupid fast car

I love GN's and I love this car.
