Hey there guys!

I just signed up so be nice :D

I have been out of the Fbody scene for a bit while I played on the Dark Side with a Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 twin Turbo. Well needless to say, I think I am going to go back to my roots.

When I left the Fbody world, I was into the 3rd gens, but now I am looking to get a 4th gen T/A vert, so this will be like Fbody 101 all over (to a point, lol).


First question I have is, is there a dedicated 4th gen Fbody website? I am still a member of Thridgen.org, but that will do me no good, lol.

Also since I am here, I was wanting to know if it is possible to make a 99-02 T/A Clone from say a 97 T/A or Firebird? I am in LOVE with the 99-02 T/As, but they cost too much for me right now.

Also, is there any difference in the 99-02s? From what I remember, one of the years had such a HIGH ram air hood, that it was hard too see over, then it was modified lower for later years. I could be wrong, but I thought I heard something on these lines.

Well looking forward to B.S.'n around!


DM :devil:

yes a 98-02 front clip will bolt onto a 93-97 vehicle as long as it is done as a whole (fenders,hood,front facia,bumper support,headlights with wiring harness, rear bumper,tailights

im sure that there may be a couple things ive missed but you get the point and as far as the high ram air hood yes there were two versions one that you see on the ws6 cars and then there was the one that was what i believe was called the ''raptor" or something like that (this hood was on the firehawks ) also i believe the 00-02 cars had a slight horsepower advantage (different intake and camshaft) than the 98-99 cars
