Welcome to the Community!
White is the best color!
I'd like to see more pics of both of yours.
The '88 is....interesting. I like the wheels and the headlights are interesting, is that just a cover or do you have Projector/HIDs in there? And either I'm going crazy or the lower part of the front bumper is from another car. Looks good aside from maybe needing paint. What did it come off of?

Welcome!
Just so you know, don't just drop pulley sizes. You need supporting mods to make sure you don't get KR. A scanner or scangauge is also a good thing to have so you can monitor your engine.

new system not done

old system, it was nice

from my 88
my lights on my 88 is a peice of plexi glass that is painted.
my bumper is the lower part of an 97 malibu that i found in a junk pile
my wheels are a nice set of five spoke 17's
I put my stock rims back on the 88 and put the 17's on my 2000 it looks sweet.
heres another photo of the rims on my 88

All I have to say is wow.
Why not put the swoopies on the 88? (stock rims on the SSEi).

Sadly it's a not good wow. Very ricer interior, and I'm not digging the wing.
I like my Aeroforce Interceptor, but it's not the be all, end all. It does its job very well, but there are others out there that also do the job.

Some things I like, others, not so much, but overall I like it
Ever run the '88 down the strip? I am curious as to what it runs, and also how much nitrous are you running?

Wow
Seriously or are you exaggerating that number....14 fragged transmission is crazy, I would have given up after the 3rd, lol.
Way to stick with it!

Welcome to the club.
Your 00 has a bit more potential than the 88 but I'm impressed at what you had done to the 88.
That engine looks like turbo material.
Follow our Techinfo and Vendor links. The buy and sell section might score you some good parts.

thanks guys for all the nice things. I also know around here you eather liked it or hated it, but they all enjoyed my effort. As all of you know you cant get any aftermarket things. BTW ricey was the tone for my age when i started on it.
