How could anyone not like this muscle car?.. it's name literally describes everything about it!!.. I've always loved Firebird Trans Ams and the 98 - 02s always have a very special place in my heart.. my dream is to own an 02' Firehawk 😍
what a mean mean machine ! one of the best 90s T/As I've seen to date. that midnight blue paint is perfection. also a thorough walk-through presentation that left nothing unanswered.
Just bought a ‘98 WS6. It’s a project car. I LOVE what you have done! These cars are so beautiful. When the Corvettes, Camaros and Mustangs all looked like a series of boxes glued together the TA had LINES! Loved ‘em then and finally got one. I’m going to use this video as a resource for our build. Congrats on an absolutely beautiful build of a beautiful car.
These cars r going to be legendary I got a hold on one Jacksonville Florida pick up my self no rust it’s a v6 but slowly transforming to a full on v8 car nice mine is in red lsx block being built can’t wait to finish it
I wish I could give more thumbs up. One of my all time favorite cars. They are like driving a rocket. I only drove the stock 99 model. Can't imagine what this would be like to drive! There is something special about these models.
For some reason your video obviously got slammed in people's recommended and I'm SO GLAD! That is an awesome ride done right! Love the blower whine, love the F- body T/A's, That ram-aiir filter is hilariously sick looking when the hood comes up. Gotta go check out your channel now, hope you got more of this!
RUclips algorithm, thank you, you have been useful finally. Also if you wanna see a burnout he has a newer video uploaded. schwerzy I recommend you put the link on the screen here buddy.
I was 18 and a senior in high school when my uncle(who I lived with) bought a brand new 2002 WS6. He got a DWI after getting the car and lost his license so I got to drive him around in his car and did I ever feal like "cool kid" behind the wheel. My uncle would let me thrash on her too. The first time he let me punch it I got sideways and ended up spinning out but it was in a parking lot so no harm was done. I loved that car and would just stare at it in the garage. I begged my uncle to let me drive it to school on my last day of senior year but he wouldn't. He traded the T/A for a fucking Cobalt SS, we don't talk anymore. I will own that car one day.
Wow! That's all I got lol. What a beautiful car, clean build. Sounds and looks amazing. Would love a video of it throwin down on the street...even a little bit. Too bad the blower is under the edge of the windshield or you could've stuck it up through the hood rather than lowered the cradle, that must've taken some serious fab work. Absolutely sick brother, love it!
Niiiiice!!! Not often I see such a perfect build. I wouldn’t change a thing, well thought out and executed mods and everything works perfectly together
Plus it a stick and a 6 speed...yessss When he open the doors i held my breath thinking that it was a freaking automatic ..when i seen the stick the whole car just looked sooooo much better..lol
Your Trans Am is amazing, impeccable mod list! Props, and i own an 02 WS.6 M6 so I can appreciate all the beautiful mods. Im Still deciding between procharger, magnusson, lsX.
Awsome man,had 2 4th gens myself,and good job showing the car,too many "car review" channels im looking at someone walking around with a selfie stick talkin and never even see the car
Pontiac Trans Ams are a legend. They are awesome and yours is awesome also. With that being said, the photographer needs camera lessons very badly. Turn the iPhone sideways... you want a horizontal widescreen video, not a portrait video. I tell this to people all the time and yet the next time they take video they can't remember how to hold to phone so it fills the entire screen and still keep holding it in portrait mode. Please people! Hold your phones sideways while taking a video no matter what!
@@SKRooU2 not hard at all if you want to change some body panels out.A little time and money and its easily possible since body panels are the only difference.
@@Wesley3129 and the serial # will still say Camaro -bunch of money and time wasted. Doesn't even make sense. The fenders, front / rear end, headlights, interiors are different too. It would be cost more $$$ to convert it over than to just buy a WS6. A WS9 is even cheaper LOL
@@SKRooU2 every Trans Am ever made came from a Camaro platform.There are some differences but its all bolt on.I wouldn't waste my time to do it.My Camaro is bad ass enough.It will scare the shit out of you as it is and for $16,000 for a car with an LS6 built buy a man who built high performance motors for a living for 50 years and drag raced and a beefed up 6 speed tranny and new rear end not to mention a shit ton of other new parts fuck the damn TA.I can buy a 2002 WS6 down the street with 45,000 miles and HCI but it wont even begin to run with my car.
@@Wesley3129 well no both cars are on the f-body platform and they split down the assembly line, the camaros one way, the firebirds the other way. I'm 55 and have had fast cars and trucks lol always remember there will be someone else with a faster car. So stop acting like you have the fastest car in the world bro LMAO
Gorgeous car ! Love trams am`s have had several myself the last being a new 2000 pewter ram air ws6 6sp these cars were fire when the new look came out in 98 . Nice video fantastic car ✌️
That's not a muscle car no more, that is a supercar! And quite frankly, a factory standard WS6 Trans Am is ticking supercar boxes, so that would make this a boiling hot supercar!
Perfect car. I had good luck with my 10 bolt with a turbo. Just gotta get the LPW cover and axle tube brace kit, and ARP everything. Nice job that thing is seriously perfect.
Love the roots/twin screw type blower. I'm not a huge fan of the centrifugal blowers that are mounted off the motor like turbos. Love the stance and the rims.
Gorgeous car but terrible to work on, as I recall. I'm sure it took some effort to squeeze that blower under there. Though I'm sure the Ram Air hood helped. She sounds great, and with 700hp, I bet she goes like hell! Always wanted a WS6 in the late 90s/early00s. Congratulations on the build.
That supercharger spool sounds absolutely delightful wow makes me want to get another WS6 or Camaro SS. One thing I don't miss though it's the pain in the ass that those cars are to work on my God I remember installing a set of headers on my 30th Anniversary Z28 what a nightmare that was. I've installed turbo kits on Imports since then that took me about a quarter of the time
Andrew Stevens good god I did longtubes on my 96 lt1 on my 16th birthday and It felt like I would never get it done. One thing after another. Plugs and wires in the way. Dipsticks in the way. Ground clearance. Broken exhaust gaskets.
I had a 93 z28,a 97 30th anniversery z, and an 02 ws6. I kind of miss these cars. They handle bad and are hard to see out of.. and drive. But they are cool. I saw a really nice built 02 SS in traffic today.. super loud. Makes me want one lol
yea i miss mine too. got some vids of mine on my channel. has 60k miles. sweet car. just dont get caught in the rain or snow. or drive in the winter with dumps on the exaust or youll need a gas mask. ;)
That's why you just pull the motor and do it all at once lol. Believe me, I hear you, I helped a buddy work on his quite a bit, but the older I get, the more I just collect all my parts, cut to the chase, and yank engines on cars that are difficult to work on. You end up saving yourself time and headaches in the long run. Considering that even doing sparkplugs on these cars is a PITA, I'd rather have the car down for 2 weeks and do "everything" at once. With the engine out, parts installs are easy, the bay can be thoroughly cleaned, inspected, serviced, clearanced, painted, whatever needs to be done. Makes it real easy to R&R suspension and subframe bushings as well. And for the record, these cars can be made to handle just fine!
Sounds amazing from exhaust. Calm but scary... purring nice like a antsy tiger 🐅. But Vertical recording ????? Nooooooo Anyways I like it (car not verticals). Thanks for showing your Sinister baby. Great job- Cool.
when you said stock rear end, I made a fist and raised it high in the air. Mine is stock too and holding great with tons of power and NT05Rs. If you aren’t an idiot they hold just fine.
Shannon Sisk if he plans on running that car a 10 bolt will turn to dust under 700hp. Crazy he put all that money into the engine but not in a 12 or 8 bolt rear lol
awesome sexy car its making want to drive again lol unfortunately I'm a stroke and cardiac arrest survivor and not allowed to drive again because of might get sezures which is side effect from the stroke, loved the trans AM, merry belated Christmas and Happy New year to all
Nice ws6! Your gonna blow that rear end either on the street or your first time at the track. I blew up mine 3 times before I got a Moser 12 with 33 spline axles. Never had another rear end problem.
Mine has 1100 hp which I thought I wanted but is a little much for me and for the street I think. Had a couple of close calls. It is fun to drive but 5 or 6 hundred hp would have been fine. Great looking car. Be Careful !!!
How could anyone not like this muscle car?.. it's name literally describes everything about it!!.. I've always loved Firebird Trans Ams and the 98 - 02s always have a very special place in my heart.. my dream is to own an 02' Firehawk 😍

what a mean mean machine ! one of the best 90s T/As I've seen to date. that midnight blue paint is perfection. also a thorough walk-through presentation that left nothing unanswered.
I really like that he cut out the front licence cover but kept the firebird, looks sharp as hell!👌

Im a Mustang guy but i really like these cars and love this one.
Mustang!? What tha
Same,Sold my 03 cobra ,growing family,should of just abandoned them lol.These in particular do it.
@@mikemartinez7440 don’t do it lmbo 😆. That was hilarious bro
@@k.tucker2011 it's a car that wants to be a better Camaro but can't
@@mikemartinez7440 I love the 03 cobra it’s my dream car rn

I miss seeing these on the road.
Gorgeous car looks more modern and badass than new cars today
New shit got no style, long live pontiac!
Those wheels look SICK on that car. Let alone how beautiful the car itself is. Holy crap! Nice job!

It's gorgeous. Love that devil blue paint, the rims fit the car to a tee.
RUclips algorithm, thank you, you have been useful finally. Also if you wanna see a burnout he has a newer video uploaded. schwerzy I recommend you put the link on the screen here buddy.
That's a wonderful automobile 👍👍👍I'd like to see some footage of you cutting that monster loose
One of the best looking WS6 I have ever seen, in my favorite stock color too, Awesome.
That is an incredible machine, man. I like your style. Respect.
What a timeless design. Still such a cool looking car.

Beautiful car mate, I plan on importing one of these to Australia, WS6's are non-existent here. The conversion is expensive though around 15-20k
Love you aussies, you're as fanatical about v-8's as we are. I have a GTO/Monaro here.
DAMN that is a CLEAN Trans Am !!!!! Nice job !!!!!
As a Mustang man, God damn if that isn't a phenomenal car.
Love this model T/A. Really clean professional looking build. 700HP is perfect for drivability and performance imo. Beautiful.
700 that is good
Looks like a newer modern car that's how taking care of it looks.
Right that's what I was thinking.
@@mitube4u Yeah Mann!! I had a 02 CETA Trans am and to this day I regret selling it
I was so happy to see it was 6 speed. Nice f body.
Beautiful car. This body style is timeless. Kinda like the 300zx.
You basically built my dream T/A. Nice job man! Thing's awesome
Plus it a stick and a 6 speed...yessss
When he open the doors i held my breath thinking that it was a freaking automatic ..when i seen the stick the whole car just looked sooooo much better..lol
When he hit the throttle it sounded like it was hitting hyper speed lol
How could you not appreciate this car?? 🤤
Damn that's the nicest ram air I've ever seen
Your Trans Am is amazing, impeccable mod list! Props, and i own an 02 WS.6 M6 so I can appreciate all the beautiful mods. Im Still deciding between procharger, magnusson, lsX.
I'm a foreign car guy but this build ......fantastic job to you sir
Awsome man,had 2 4th gens myself,and good job showing the car,too many "car review" channels im looking at someone walking around with a selfie stick talkin and never even see the car
Love every single thing you did to her, and she's CLEAN! Good work man!
Dude gave you a dislike but after hearing that super charger shit I changed it to a like real quick good job for sure dude
What a juvel❤
Greatings from sweden, i own a c5 z06 with full boltons, cammed, intake, headers and so on.. but alway wanted a ws6..looks so sinister🤟🏻
Black rims would really finish her off. That's just opinion, though. It's absolutely gorgeous!
true
Black rims are boreing and way too many wannabes run um !!! That's my opinion.
No the rims are perfect
@@johnnygride2118 Wannabes? That shit is ugly with those wheels, Black or gun metal grey

Jorge Bustillos couldn't agree with you more.
Nicest t/a I've seen as well
Nice Setup Brother you don't often see f-bodys with positive displacement blowers looks Awesome!😎👍
Great car, love it! Please shoot the video correctly holding the phone sideways in the future. Thanks.
Holy shit! You put a lot into this beast!
Beautiful car.I love the ws6's.Such beautiful cars.I found a built 00 SS Camaro with 500hp blacked out that I love but its not a ws6.
yea you will have a hard time finding a Camaro that's a WS6 .. LOL

When that car spooled up, damn!!

Nice car👍 should bring it to TC this summer.. come out and play
My favorite car hands down
Perfect car. I had good luck with my 10 bolt with a turbo. Just gotta get the LPW cover and axle tube brace kit, and ARP everything. Nice job that thing is seriously perfect.
Hardest WS6 on the Internet 🔥🔥🔥
super car bro and like put and in black this car looks very dangerous ferocious powerful bold and high quality
I want this exact drivetrain setup for my 72 GMC, great job on the build
Is this one bad azz W-Ram air? Yes! Reminds of one an Army guy had in Germany, while I was stationed there! An Autobahn high speed runner.
Love the roots/twin screw type blower. I'm not a huge fan of the centrifugal blowers that are mounted off the motor like turbos. Love the stance and the rims.
Absolutely gorgeous car! Looks like it's a beast !!
I am old school and I would love to see what the car would look like with a set of aluminum slots on it. Very sharp car I would love to own it
Very nice!!! A big WS6 hello from Kenosha!!!
I hate to see it just sitting would have loved to see it in action.
beautiful car , when I heard stock rear end I said wtf lolol....it's still holding? those weren't the greatest
I'm really digging that splitter on the front bumper
Jaw dropping! Badass!
my dream car ....love it

Damn man, lets see it do a burn out.🔥☺
I love those rims man, wanting those for my 02 Firebird.
What kind are they?
Nice ws6! Your gonna blow that rear end either on the street or your first time at the track. I blew up mine 3 times before I got a Moser 12 with 33 spline axles. Never had another rear end problem.
Damn those Rims look way better then I would of thought it really gives it its on look nice.
