Chad's '89 Camaro IROC-Z

Chads car started off as a clean IROC-Z powered by a stock TPI 305 motor with a T5 tranny. Not long after purchasing the car Chad decided it was time for a change. He then went out and ordered new '91-'92 rocker panels, bumper, and spoiler. Shortly after he sold the stock wheels he had a new set of rollers in the form of chrome 17" Z06 wheels. More body work is to come along with a new motor and tranny setup since both the tranny and T5 have been removed from the car. To see more check out Chad's website.

Chad's '00 Grand Prix GT

The Grand Prix is Chad's daily driver, but that won't stop him from having fun with it's 3.8liter V6. So far Chad has installed a SLP cool air intake, K&N airfilter, and under drive pulleys. Eye appeal under hood comes from custom painted maifold cover, strut supports, and reflective overlays. The exterior has been dressed with reflective white badge overlays, a varity of East Coast decals, and a custom grill kit. Hopefully the mail man will deliver his new addition that will allow Chad to show his club support even more..

JohnnyL's '84 Grand National

-John's GN has been sold to Aaron from GAOC, stay tuned for more details and photos from Aaron.=-

JohnnyL's '02 Yamaha YZF600R

John has just picked up his new toy, a brand new Yamaha YZF to replace his old Yamaha. John has already broken it in and put nearly 3000 miles on it in 3 months. A 750 can is sitting in his garage waiting to be installed with custom pipe work. To clean up the looks John chopped the rear fender and installed a set of short stalker clear turn signals out back, custom black flames on the windscreen and ghost flames on the tank.

Leanne's '00 Grand Am GT

This 'Quick Chick' loves to cruise in her GrandAm GT with her radio up and Kenwood subs pounding while keeping a eye on the VDO gauges mounted in the Lotek gauge pod. With mods like a adjustable fuel pressure regulator, throttle position enhancer, smoothed airbox, K&N filter, polished MAF, removed MAF screen and MSD spark plug wires help lower her ETs at the track. Front and rear strut tower bars help tighten things up in the twisties. Along with a few other appearance mods like reflective purple badge overlays, front and rear speed grills, the tinted windows, and red neons make the car a real head turner. For more info check out her website.

Marta's '01 Grand Am GT

Marta is always finding ways to make her GrandAm GT stand out from the rest. Custom hood graphics, and white Konig 16" wheels, removed emblems, and a Saleen spoiler really help grab attention. She has also installed a set of headlight covers, APC Glow in the dark fog lights, and APC wipers. If that doesn't grab attention, she uses her under the body neon kit to light things up. Inside she has a set of racing pedal covers, 10" neon tubes, and a Kenwood stereo to blast out some tunes along with a set of subs for the thump in the trunk. Marta has just purchased a SC/T RamAir hood for her car and as soon as it arrives it will be painted and installed. For more info check out her website.

Rob's '00 Grand Am GTX

Rob always has something new in store for his GrandAm, and has done alot of work to get it where it is. Performance is backed by a custom cold air induction setup feeding a RSM installed Vortech supercharger then though a 52mm throttle body. All that forced air is pumped out a SLP exhaust and a custom testpipe or when at the track dumped out a Quicktime electric exhaust cutout. Other aluminum items under the hood like the intake manifold and alternator have been polished. The interior is stuffed with Sparco Rev racing seats and four point harnesses, a Lotek gauge pod with Autometer gauges to monitor oil pressure and the charging system. He also keeps a eye on the boost pressure and transmission temp with custom mount gauges in the dash, with his tinted windows keeping him cool. To plug in additional toys like a laptop computer for example Rob hard wired a power inverter with two outlets. Red lighting inside is a nice back drop for his custom painted interior. Outside of his ride Robs GrandAm sports a custom painted SC/T body kit, custom GTX badges, GTS headlight blackouts, custom speedgrill inserts, billet aluminum fuel door. Rob just sold his Mille Miglias for a set of 17" Eagle Alloys wrapped in Falken rubbers. For more info check out his vehicle.Or click here to see his video.

Jason's '98 Grand Am SE

Jason is ClubECM's newest member and first long distance member. His '98 Pontiac Grand Am is set up for competition in Atlantic Sports Car Club's Solo II racing series. The Grand Am packs a LG8 3.1 liter V6 under which breaths better with help from a custom Neuspeed cold air induction adapted from a VR6. With Jason strapped into the drives seat via a 5 point Leaf racing harness this mostly stock sedan pulled in some surprising numbers at the track. While cruising the Clarion 4x6 in the doors and Sony Xplode 6x9's in the rear deck help clean up the music notes. Jason has already started his search for a set of stock GM 16" wheels and also plans on modding the suspension a bit with Intrax performance springs and Intrax camber correction kit.

John's '99 Grand Am GT1

This bright red Grand Am GT1 is sure to get attention where ever it goes. John's dressed up the exterior of his with Grand Am mudflaps, "Ram Air" decals and windshield banner, a "GrandAmGT" brake light overlay, front and rear "Pontiac" inlays. His calipers have been detail to accent the 18 inch Eagle Alloy 077 rims wrapped with Kuhmo Ecsta rubbers. Subtile custom lighting has been taken care of by Xenon fog lamps, Plasma Superwhites headlight bulbs, a DRL disable kit, and a set of GTS headlight covers. Tinted windows and Vent Visors help keep the interior cool that house his Lloyd custom floor mats. While cruising John listens to tunes though a Sony MP3/CD head unit out to Kenwood speakers. A Rockford Fosgate 15" sub adds some thump while powered by a MTX amplifier. Under the hood a cold air induction unit is inplace filtering air though a K&N airfilter.

Keith's '99 Grand Am GT

Keith's victory red Grand Am GT is a fine example of how a clean ride should be. Powered by the LA1 3400 V6 Keith has also added a custom cold air intake with K&N filter, Taylor Spiro 8mm spark plug wires attached to Bosch Iridium +4 spark plugs. The exterior is dressed up with Grafxwerks yellow reflective badge overlays and custom white grills. The road is illuminated at night via Halogen ultra whites, and set of Ralley driving lamps. For added flair a set of strobes have been installed into the directionals and driving lamps. While flooring the Ractive gas pedal music is supplied from a pair of MTX 12" subs powered by a Bazooka 600w amp and topped off with a 1 farad strike cap and enclosed in a Dynamat insulated trunk. More mods are planned for the future. Check out Keiths's GT here for more photos.

Paul's '95 Explorer

Pauls Explorer is giving him more room over his old '01 Ranger. The Eddie Bauer edition is powered by a 4.0 liter V6. Inside the entertainment begins with a touch screen Kenwood Excelon CD player, TV, and tuner. A Clarion DVD player resides where the heater controls once were. The heater controls are relocated to the glovebox with the Sony Playstation. Sounds are pumped out by four 12" Pioneers assisted by a Autotec 700watt street machine amp. Two more TVs are currently in the works of being installed overhead. And future plans call for a Kenwood music keg and some wheels.

Justin's '92 Mustang LX

Justin's Stang isn't a 5.0, and with only 2.3 liters under the hood it isn't packing the heat other Mustangs are. With that in mind Justin is more focused on this like handling and appearance. Since the photo his Pony has received a brand new 6 piece set of KSR headlights with clear corner markers and some exterior detailing. Awaiting instalation is some trick accent lighting. Some body work is soon to come, and future plans are for a twin turbo style hood, a Cobra or GT style spoiler, 17" Cobra wheels, and clear tail lights.

Jen's '93 Grand Am SE

Jen blazes around the Albany area in her blue GA powered by a 3.3 liter V6. For some extra kick the throttle body was cleaned up and larger injectors were installed along with cold air intake, and a high flow cone filter. Larger exhaust pipe helps it breath into the stock muffler for now, but a Flowmaster will soon replace it. The transmission was jus tcompletely rebuild so now harder shifting is a added bonus. Tunes are pumped out by a Eclipse headunit and JBL 6x9s accented by blue neons. Future plans include some subwoofers for extra 'bump', a fresh paint job and some killer wheels.

Rj's '81 TransAm

The '81 TransAm has just received a fresh coat of shimmering charcole grey paint. Next up is tackling the interior. The white faced gauges, and fiberglass lead off the custom touches. RJ just got his hands on a hot 400cid Pontiac motor to power the beast. Look for more coming soon.

Bob's '95 Camry

Bob is one of our newer club members with his '95 Camry coupe. Thats right this two door Camry isn't as common as the sedan which makes it a breath of fresh air. The Toyota cranks out tunes with two Planet Audio 12" subs powered by a Planet Audio 6 channel amp running the subs bridged. The head unit is a Pioneer DEH-P9200 with a motorized face and multiple screensavers. The coupe is powered by a four cylinder 2.2 DOHC with a custom cold air inlet and detailed in red. Bob has the motor out and torn apart for a nice little rebuilt to handle the new boost.

The Club's '84 Camaro Z28

RJ's Camaro started off stock with a carbed 305 mated to a T5 tranny, but now sports a mildly built 350. The clutch was replaced with a Centerforce unit to harness the power sent back to a posi rearend. Exhaust gases are passed though a 3" exhaust and into a Flowmaster crossflow muffler. A factory fiberglass hood and disc brakes are just a few other items worth mentioning. Recently the car was hit by a kid in a junker and RJ purchased John's TA. In need of a frontend this car is currently for sale and might end up being a club project car. Only time will tell.
