aloha from the state of hawaii
hey guys btw my name is steve and im from the state of hawaii, island of oahu!!!
i was here couple of months ago but i was not posting any threads yet becuase I was just mostly reading tips and tricks here since i bought my 2002 oldsmobile alero gl from my autie.. my car also came with a optional v6 3400 sfi engine with 87,000 mi in it!! i bought my car for $500>>the reason why i bought this car because my 2007 ford edge consume alot of gas.
the mods and maintance that i made to my alero!
1. warm air intake but i bypass a tube from the filter going under the car.
2. straight pipe exhaust with 2.5" piping, glasspack exhaust and 3" dual tip
3.6000 k high intensity discharge
3. a car tuner sold me a jet chip tuning for my alero..he programed my ecu?.i kinda feel some performance difference..but all i know i can do more burn rubber on a acceleration..haha
4.cleaned the throttle body
5.seafoamed my vacuum lines, crank oil case, gas tank
6. degreased my engine
7.changed water pump and sepentine belt
8.i cleaned the hoses and flushed the radiator
9.tranmission ol change
10. change oil from a junk oil to 5w30 royal purple and a k&n oil filter
11. installed a kenwood double din deck
12.installed a dual 12" jl w3v3 subs
13.installed a interfire amplifier 1200 watts 2 channel amp
the bads:
1.my auntie is a shitty driver.. 2 dents in the rear pannel.anybody can teach me how to use bondo body filler?? anybody pls!!!
2.she also scrapped the front bumper
3.she was using dish washing detergent to wash the car..paint is kinda fading
4.a little crack in the left tail light
5. i have to super glue the right side mirror because she broke the plastic that holds the spring of the side mirror
6.some minor scratches and dings on the car
7.all the mirrors looks like it was sanded down by a 10 grit sand paper lol!!!
p.s.
i was too ahy to post some picture of my car yet because its all bust up!..but yea the main thing is just i can go from point a to point b ..and yea alero is fun car to drive and im very satisified since is my first GM car..A ford enthusiast can be a GM enthusiast too!!

hey guys ..i aint a native hawaiian..im actually a half pilipino, spanish, and chinese but i was locally born here in hawaii lol =]...but hey guys im looking forward at beefing up my 4 door sedan olds alero...
well i might be the first one or somebody might already did this in their alero, but i will be making my alero unique!!!..since i got a 4 door sedan, i might be looking at doing a VIP style rather than making it sporty.
ill be making my alero this way...=]
