98 TA Built M6 for sale *PRICE DROP* I don't really need two F-bodies and I can afford to spend more money on my pewter car if I don't have two car payments. Also have a baby on the way. I'll try to make a complete list of mods but I'm sure I will forget something. It's a 1998 Trans Am, Black, T-top:
Engine modifications:
Suncoast ram air (seals to hood)
K&N fliter
LS6 Mass air sensor
Smooth Bellow
Cartek Ported LS6 intake manifold
Shaner S3 ported and polished throttle body
160* thermostat
Asp underdrive pulley
NGK TR55 spark plugs
Pacesetter LT headers
True Duals over the rear axle w/bassani x-pipe and tips Dynomax Ultraflow muffler
Drivetrain:
RPM-built Stage IV t56- carbon blocker rings, steel 3-4 shift fork, pressed 2-3 shift fork, billet keys (car was originally an automatic)
Short throw Pro 5.0 shifter
Aluminum flywheel(~13 lbs)
LS6 clutch and hydraulics
poly drivetrain bushings (transmission, torque arm, motor--fully broken-in)
torsen t2r differential (used mostly for road/autocross type racing)
Genuine GM 4.10 gears
Aluminum Differential girdle
Suspension:
Custom built panhard rod
Koni adjustible shocks all the way around (car is lowered 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch all around)
35mm front anti roll bar 21mm 1le rear anti roll bar
1le springs 360 lb front, and progressive 130-180 rear
1le lower control arms
custom alignment set up to the previous owners specs
The suspension setup was built by the previous owner, the writeup he did on it was made into a sticky on here, it can be found here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=513475&page=1&pp=20
Appearance:
Raptor hood
Z06/argent wheels 17x9.5"
Blackouts on fog lights and front turn signals
Interior:
Aftermarket CD player w/remote
10 Disc cd changer
Sail panel 6 1/2 in subs have been replaced with 2 JL Audio 6W0 Subs Subs are powered by a 1000 watt Sony Xplode amp (overkill but it is turned down)
Rear seat delete kit
Brand new passenger side window motor
What is included with the car:
A set of Magnaflow high flow Cats (they were on the car before the LTs)
I have most of the stock suspension parts
A brand new set of subframe connectors for the car
the rear seats and seat belts
Corvette Fuel rail covers (I took them off because I don't own a corvette)
I also have a set of 12 inch subs in a box and an amp that may be included with the car (depending on the price)
The bad:
The paint is stock from 98' so it has some scratches and the clear coat is coming up in 5 small spots on the front bumper of the car
the hood has small spiderwebbing right at the front of the nose (see picture)
the rear tint needs removed ( someone put 2 layers on, to pass inspection I had to get a layer removed and now it looks like butt)
The power antenna stopped working a few days ago, the radio works fine the antenna is just stuck up.
The car has 120k miles
It will need new rear tires soon
The cup holder doesn't lock out all the way(it kinda flops back and forth)
Because the car was previously an automatic there is no solenoid for the reverse lockout, you have to override it by using a little extra muscle.
Steering wheel radio controls don't work with the aftermarket stereo.
Overall the car is still in pretty good shape for the miles, it doesn't use a drop of oil, gets between 21 and 23 mpg city/highway mix I have gotten 27 on a road trip before. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere. A little over a month ago I drove it to kansas and back. The front tires have ~5,000 miles on them. It was set up for road racing and handling when I bought it and I haven't changed any suspension stuff. I am asking $9,000.

The rims were actually on the car when I bought it. The color is "Argent".
I found some reproduction ones here: http://www.ecklers.com/product.asp?p...&dept%5Fid=257
They don't have an emblem tho.
Here is another set but they are 17" front and 18" rear, mine has 17" all around:

Most of the pictures I had posted showed the flaws of the car, I figured I would post some that don't.

Bump... Price lowered... $9000.
Having trouble getting under-hood pics, it's dark by the time I get home from work and I can't really leave work to do it.

Stock fuel system, It doesn't make enought power to need that upgraded yet. My other car was making 412rwhp with the stock fuel system no problem. I think the 98's have 28lb injectors IIRC.
