Hi! My name is Brandon and I drive a s/c'd 2003 Corolla S. But I'm not here because of my car but because my wife drives a victory red 2003 Alero 3400 and wants me to do some modding to it.

I'm not new to GM. In fact until my Corolla I've never purchased an import vehicle. The first car I modded was a 3.1L Chevy Cavalier. Homemade CAI (before ther was even an ebay), pacesetter catback, slotted KVM rotors, Fastchips chip, etc. I still even own the book 'How to rebuild your GM 60 degree engine'.

Anyway, first things first. The car is beat up externally so I'm going to be doing some minor dent repairs. The interior has some chew marks on the steering wheel, ebrake handle, and shift knob which I'll be replacing (parts on the way). I've already had to deal with the security issue even removing a remote starter I had installed and will have to reinstall next week.

So hello again. Good to be here.

Welcome.

Nah, my German Shepherd was a pup and he got pissed that we left him in the car. I guess he was just venting. I'll get pics tomorrow maybe. Looks pretty much like a stock victory red Alero.

I did buy my wife some white face glow gauges because of some thread she read here yesterday. It's starting...

I wrote a DIY for clearing corners before there was a car called an Alero. I'm not doing a 15 year old mod on this car. It'll have a fart pipe and a ginourmous wing before I do that, lol!

I still need a dashboard and an ebrake handle which probably means the whole assembly. I'm hitting up the pick n pull today or tomorrow so if I don't find what I'm looking for I'll get back to you.

I'm not knocking clear corners. Just not my taste. I'm more of a 'more go, less show" type of guy and would rather not spend a whole lot of time on looks.

Cool site. I need to find my box with my 3400 heads and manifolds. Maybe I'll send them out as cores for some nice upgrades :D I had them as a part of a 3400/3.1 hybrid I was building. Just didn't get around to putting it together before I sold the car. Found my gasket set last week though...:lol:

More go and less show. Oooooooooooo You are my bestest friend right now.

I've got a little bit of dress-up under my hood, but nothing too much. Going for the clean, sleeper look now. It's been up for debate a lot in the past, but my Alero is the fastest NA on the board, and when you look at it, it just has painted rims and dual exhasut ;)

I used to have a 85 Delta 88 with a 350 Olds in it. I just bought a 330 Olds motor last week. My plans are to drop it into a late 70's early to mid 80's Delta 88, Cutlass sedan, or "A" body coupe. When the motor goes in it will be painted factory color for the year car, not the year motor. All the SBO look the same exteranlly.

I know what you are talking about

mine has a 3400 2 1/2 exhaust (dp high flow cat pacesetter cat back), taylor wires and new plugs that saw about 10 miles, it just pisses me off lookin at it on jack stands (sold wheels and tires). I thought about simple flaming river steering pullin all the assorys off the motor and seein how much NOS a 3400 could take :lol: at the strip up it 50 shot at a time till it blows :eek:

whole car for a few hundred picked up................ I want the mother f'er gone, I wanta grab every alero i see an offer them parts.

Nice! My dad used to have a '72 delta 88 with a 350. Had a roll bar, Nitrous Oxide, and all sorts of goodies. He sold it before I turned 16 >:I

Anyway, Redog you're style is just my taste. I don't know that I'll keep it N/A though. FI is easy horsepower.

I would prefer to turbo it like my last car but it belongs to the wifey so we'll have to see. She is seriously talking about dumping it to get a new Camaro. I love my wife.
