Hey guys. My name is Michael Ewer(pronounced you-er.) I've been searching for some time now for a place that loves Alero's just as much as I do. I see I found it. Hopefully I can get some tips on mods I've been looking to do but no one I know seems to mess with this model. Its a shame too, because its cute. Well no point in talking to much here are some pictures of my 2000 gls two door alero 3.4L v6.

Hope to hear back from you guys and thanks for having me!
(Mods include: Hood scoop, Black pin stripping(only on the sides), cool air intake(damn thing looks more like a short ram -.-), 6 1/2 pioneer front speakers, 6 by 9 pioneers in back, pioneer aftermarket radio, two 10inch 600w subs running on a 1200w amp with 12dp switch, big three upgrade, LeBra, and a kick ass little alien guy that sits by my steering wheel lol.)
Side note: I live in Wisconsin and this baby was mad in Michigan :)

Lose the bra, scoop, and silly "fear this" sticker... lol
Then lower it and get wheels!

Welcome........lose the bra, scoop, I say keep the sticker to spite Ion,
but definately lower it, and put some kind of material on your wooden box, it looks redneck......
TaurineMike

Hey now, I could go for loosing the hood scoop and putting a new one on there but I'm not dropping the fear this sticker. Its cute. I'm going to get some velvet to put on the box. I'm not sure how to "lower" it lol.
TaurineMike
10-06-2011, 01:10 PM
p.s. the scoop isn't functional. I don't have a great deal of money. :(

Its cute.
are you a girl? (no offense being made if your a guy)
and "lower" it means to get springs that drop the car an inch or two

well he(or maybe she) keeps referring to the car as cute more of a girl term instead of just saying badass, I think that’s were the confusion is coming from.
Btw I use to know a girl name Shawn and she was pretty too, so damn cute I use to have a crush on her. Thank god I was never too stupid to write I love Shawn or zearchyo and shawn:lol:
i mean not to offend

the "fear this" is idiotic. there is nothing to fear about a stock Alero
especially one with a stick on ricer scoop. you'll get laughs more than respect..

My name is Michael and I am a boy. >.> I refer to this car as cute because it's like a hot broad with big tits and a nice ass rather than a big cock. Don't get me wrong I love my car but it isn't the best car in the world. My car is not stock because it has a new intake on it and a piggy back chip. I would like to lower it but I don't have the skill nor money for it haha. I know a few helpful things about car as far as maintenance goes(changing breaks and oil, ect) but I'm not a genius haha. What do you mean about the cables green? Thanks for the feed back guys.

the "piggy back chip" is a scam and you got had, unfortunately.
lowering is easy, one of the easiest things you really can do..

x2...you can't just throw a "chip" into an OBD2 compliant car...its all done through tuning the actual stock computer. all those "chips" do is mess with the signals that are sent to the computer to give it a false reading in attempt to make power, but it actually hurts your car more then it makes it faster.
Papa Rad17

Take out the "chip". Then you'll be alright. Enjoy the forum.

Haha no I've heard they mess up stuff and I have been having issues with my rpms. It only happens when I'm going up hills. The rpms fluctuate up than back down. I vowed if I heard that again I was going to take it out. So buh bye chip lol. Anyways how would you go about lowering it guys? Any tips? Like I said not real car smart..yet.. Help a fellow alero guy out. :)
