Hey so there’s this small RU-vidr. I don’t know him personally or really at all but I know he’s working on cars and loves barn finds because of you. He is currently working on a 1975 trans am firebird. Before he decided to do RU-vid he worked on the car with his father. His father later sadly committed suicide. Even though he doesn’t know me I know his channel and he has my condolences. After the passing of his father he started the RU-vid channel and has been working on the car. Even though I don’t really know him I think he deserves more support for what he’s been through. His RU-vid channel is named midnightTA. Even though you’ll probably never see this I still thought that I should let you know.

Fun stereo fact: It's actually very common to have no rear speakers in Sound Quality builds. It is much harder to have a proper sound stage when the audio is also coming from behind you. Subs are fine anywhere basically because bass isn't directional, but speakers actually can worsen the sound quality if the placement isn't good.

@noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo0
@@macgroober1396 Depends on the exact speaker placement really. An SUV with speakers in the rear doors would be more problematic than a sedan or coupe with speakers in the rear deck. It's all about the time it takes for a sound to reach you and the volume it's at when it does. It's a pretty interesting rabbit hole to go down.

The hp difference between regular and non ram air hoods ( Trans-Am vs WS6 or firehawk and z28 vs SS dont get the extra hp from the hood. the hp is derived from the exhaust and if u have a modified raised airbox or an slp lid ( some came factory) thats where intake adds power. But. They look cool. As does a spoiler that dont do much except hang on and maybe add a few pounds during max speed run.

The 4th gens started in the early 90's. As late as 2001 they were talking about changing the looks of the Trans Am because, as then VP Bob Lutz said, "A friend of mine said the Trans Am looks like a school yard bully that wants to take your lunch. It looks too mean." Which shows you how out of touch parts of GM were, but I think GM was always waffling back and forth about the life of the 4th gens. During the same talk at the 2001 Grand Prix Gathering, Lutz also said they were going to make an LS1 powered AWD Grand Prix "...because we can." The next year they had the prototype for it...but it never got produced.

@@drishy94303 i concur. saving factory harnesses add so much value to your audio project. And it wasn't an overkill. from what I saw it was fairly simple. Full range speakers, a couple of subs, plus the factory rear speaker delete helped. No locs, no crossovers. It sucks to say that disabling the rear is the best bet; being mounted to cowling and all. Aftermarket speakers would have your cowoing shake apart. But otherwise simply tastfully modded radio install with points taken for the crappy amp power cable litterally barley held together by a crimp. I'd give it a 7 out of 10 install rating

Sold that so my wife could get a new SUV for her and the kids and picked up a 1993 Formula that I did a 98+ front end conversion with a WS6 hood and T/A hatch. Snagged a 73 Formula from the original owner and am restoring that with my dad. Still have the 93 and 73. Love these F-Bodies, I will always have at least one in the garage!

Alex, the WS6 also came with wider rims/tires. The Ram Air is functional, especially if you live somewhere where there's little rain (I'm in Vegas) and you cut out the rain baffles. Those rain baffles keep the air filter dry by catching the water and sending it out little drain holes. I used a dremel to remove them and you could see my K&N filter through the hood. BTW, the SS and the WS6 hoods are completely different. The SS isn't a straight shot no matter what you do. It's just a fresh air intake. My buddy and I put a vacuum gauge on my airbox after removing the baffles and there was less vacuum in the box at high speeds with the engine at the same rpm and load, according to HP Tuners datalog.

That thing under hood was a wireless immobilizer for the Directed alarm system. When you armed the alarm it sent a signal to a module that was usually connected to the fuel pump or starter circuit. This way if you were trying to steal the car you couldn’t just trace the disable wire from the alarm directly to a relay that was tapped in somewhere and bypass it how most systems are done.

I had a 1993 Firebird Formula, 6 speed, t-tops (which was rare for the early lt1 cars) and leather interior, and the kicker it was painted in Gray Purple Metallic. It was a pretty rare car. I sold it to buy my 2009 Corvette ZR1.

Alex actually prefer stock looking vehicles so In my humble opinion I think what you are doing is perfectly fine. And, its cool your inc all the aftermarket acc that your removing. Back in the day I built an 88 Monte Carlo SS with a 383 Stroker small block and kept it all factory stock inside and outside. I surprised many a Fox body 5.0 Mustang owner with that car. A sleeper SS. Enjoy your videos! Say hello to Peter!

I have an 02 WS6 owned it since 2006. Bought it with 23k miles currently has 40k. It was stock until a few years ago. I did CNC ported ls6 heads, torquer v2 cam, monster twin disk clutch. FIC 525cc injectors, longtubes, slp loudmouth, slp intake and wheels tires and suspension mods. I'll never sell it!

Alex while you’re near the white WS6 installing the audio system in stall some sound deadening it will be worth it… When I look at a vehicle and it has a aftermarket audio system in it the first thing I look at is the power and grounds, I look at the fuse to see if it’s hanging etc, if undersized cable was used and if wire and harnesses were cut

Guys another great mini series on the TA! At first I was like leave the tunes intact but after seeing the hack job on the wiring- you definitely made the right move yankin out the clutter and welding cable going through the door jam 😜. I'm with you on the factory clean look, yes its subjective but shows way nicer this way. Noice car and it looks like your doing well on Mods & Miles! Best of luck and btw can't wait to see the Chevy van project 😎😎👍👍

The WS6 or the Firehawk is my bucket list car. That "last of the breed" glue residue looks like the Black Panther head. I've done some "ricey" stuff... Straight pipe, fire extinguisher on the A-pillar, huge race car-like stickers, shifting an automatic transmission like a manual, clear tail lights, (2) 15" subs in a compact car, yellow wire loom and longer radiator deflector under the car. I was bad.

22:26 I agree, if you want a leather dash and door trim in wood and all that fancy stuff, go get a BMW and pay the extra $40,000 on top of the $30,000 car, be my guest. Who cares if the whole interior is made of cheap plastic? I don't sleep on the top of the dash.

Love the Firebirds/Trans Ams. Had a 1983 Firebird (white) with the V6 and T-tops that my cousin had hit a telephone pole with. Had a big print in the bumper where he hit. My Dad drove it up from Long Island 250 miles to where we live in upstate NY doing 80mph+ at night with only one headlight. 🙂 I ended up removing the front clip, straightening the frame (by heating the frame, hooking to a tree, and putting the car in reverse) with my dad and doing all the paint and body work with him in our home garage. That was my senior project. But I had to sell it as the insurance was really expensive for a 17 year old with a sports car. Sad part was the local guy who bought it, wrecked it 2 months later. Totaled the car. But anyhow, thanks for doing these videos on the Pontiac's. Love those cars 🙂

I have a 98 NBM Z28 I bought new from the dealer. The alternator splash guard is unusual to see. Aftermarket exhaust looks like mild steel showing its age. Fuse box cover labels in good condition. I like the idea of steam cleaning the bay.
