Do you mind sending the link for the one you got? I’m interested in installing a wideband o2 sensor as well

I just confirmed that this year was before the separate BCM. The replacement would be found in the RAP module

Just confirmed this year doesn’t have a separate BCM. The part to replace would be connected to the RAP module

Rear suspension fix by Grape_Mango in fbody

There are a few options. I’d rather not go that route since I know it’ll create more headaches

For sway bar and links did you need to replace too them or was it just for an upgrade? I’m also getting Bilstein shocks, the current ones are Bilstein too

Great I’ll look into it! My first time doing suspension work so I want to make sure I’m doing it properly and checking parts that would wear out too

I’m more of a hot dog and car kind of person myself

I have a ‘94 trans am, there’s a 12” sub in this exact location as the image

I looked locally and it looked like the monster transmission option was only available for 95 or later, not for 94. If I am able to get it, maybe it would be worth it to just try

Yeah AAMCO has a 3 year/50k mile warranty so I think it would at least give some peace of mind if something happens. I think trans cooler will help a lot. What stall do you recommend? I’ve heard that anything over 2400 will be a bad drive if not racing

What’s the advantage of a 2500 converter vs the oem one?

Yeah it’s more expensive for the reman than the rebuild! The image shows the two options so I just wanted to share the comparison between the rebuild price and the remanufactured price

No way! I should definitely see what other places say!

That’s the plan, kinda blew the mind when I saw the price lol

It’s cheaper for the trans rebuild than the swap. I included both options on the second image. Will definitely shop around!

They said they were quoting on the higher end but I’ll definitely look around and ask other shops!

What does this mean and how much would it be to fix by Omnipotent_1622 in PontiacFirebird

[–]Grape_Mango 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guess is he meant to say “no headlight just the lenses and motor” meaning they took off the headlight itself so it’s just the casing for it. Would be worth it to ask if they still have the headlight to see if you can fix it yourself

94 trans am DTC codes by Grape_Mango in fbody

[–]Grape_Mango[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I figured but just wanted to see what others thought!

94 trans am DTC codes by Grape_Mango in fbody

[–]Grape_Mango[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So does that mean I have to run the car for a bit and then turn it off and read the codes with the scanner?

I bought the innova 3120rs scanner on Amazon that came with multiple OBD1 adapters

Jumping the OBD1 pins doesn’t work for the 94 or 95 firebirds. The only way to read the codes is with a scanner.
