Welcome to the site man! I'm from Indiana but I can offer as much E-Help as possible. Do you know what your looking to do with this car? Are you wanting to keep it mostly stock and just add a few little power adders? Or are you wanting to have a fast car?

Well I'm not a hundred percent where to start I guess,I dont't know where do you guys think I should start?

kwhauck · 11-08-2010, 12:56 PM

the motor, and suspension

Actually first I think I have to fix the small problems it has first, like the rear end being smashed in due to a hit and run and my mirror being smashed off due to my crazy ex of a girlfriend which caused scratches on the side of the car, but besides that I mostly want to do all the performance up before I do the Visuals for obvious reasons

kwhauck · 11-08-2010, 12:58 PM

well yeah, you don't want a hoopty looking alero, fix the crashed up stuff....

Welcome! I was never really on the site too much, mostly browsing, searching stuff around to learn about the Alero when I bought mine. One thing to watch out for with the 3.4L depending on mileage is the LIMG they have a tendency to fail. My 3400 lost its main bearings about a year ago at 154K miles and im not too sure why they failed, maybe due to a LIMG failure previous to me buying the car, not too sure.

Drop your car get some stock size wheels with some crazy camber and tire stretch.. mad tyte stance yo. seriously though get as much suspension stuff done as you can. Than get your heads ported and get some nice ass headers to a full straight piped exhaust with a Burns 2 stage muffler. And get it tuned on e85 and eat Mustang GT's

Do you even know what they hell you're talking about? Straight pipes = no muffler.
