well i suppose i better introduce myself, my name is luke im 18 and im from mackay qld, i got a magna for a few reasons but mainly cause u could pick like a 99model up for around 10K easy and the amoount of ****in power the manual ones seem to have. also going from a honda prelude i wanted 4 doors, and a bit more balls! the old honda was still going strong but i wanted something a bit bigger and faster,( and u wouldnt catch me dead in a ****in commodore) so i found me a 99model 3.5L manual its baged as a sports tourer model so i dont know if that makes it a tj sports or just a exeucitive??? and god was that hard to track down a manual one, i found out why once i joined the forum. cause all u ****ers own em hahaha
any way my goal with the magna is to get it doing 14.9's with 18's whilst seeing through a nice pair of those parabolic head lights, ps i realise this is everyone elses goal as well. lol oh and i wouldnt mind seeing some wood grain and maby a verada dash as well.
any how ill have some pics up soon of me car

Welcome,
Nice buy on the 3.5 manual, should have no probs getting that to do a 14.9, you will find plenty of info on how to go about it on this site.

Hey, welcome to the AMC mate :D enjoy your stay.

I could hazard a guess that you might be around the low to mid 15's at the moment but like was said with a bit of work you could get that down.

Check out the search feature on the site and the 3rd Gen FAQ site for some ideas!
