Tuner Transformation
 
Anyone ever see this show. It's on channel 25 for me and its like a pep boys special of pimp my ride. All of the parts they use come from pep boys shelves. LOL They cut springs and add excessive lighting.:lol: I watched them work on a 99' cavalier and i couldnt stop laughing

yea, it is amusing sometimes, but i must admit, they have done some serious stuff in the past. They turbo'd an IS 300 and they have had other cars that they have put serous suspenisons on. But when they have a car that has no hope, i think they know it, and they have fun with it.

Yeah i just saw that one and they spend like a majority of the money on the supercharger and the rest on funny stuff

They did build a few nice cars. Srt-4, 2g eclipse, supra among others. I gotta look out for it id like to watch some episodes

funny thing is, there was a 240 on there like 2 years ago. the guy who owned is on the 240sx forums. and basically the only thing they paid for was the cf hood. everything else is paid for by the owner supposedly.

They really like their bolt ons. Basically, they will bolt on any part that is given to them for free by sponsors. Terrible show

The srt4 they built i remember them doing a nice setup and had Ben at AGP help them out, so he steered them in good direction. I remember the owner being on srt4forums and having a few lil problems but he didnt have to pay for anything as far as i know. Seems like a few cars they did good research on and the rest were poorly done

I remember them doing a B series swap on a EG hatch. It was pretty funny. They made it seem like it was the hardest swap ever. The best part was when they made "custom motor mounts". The stock mounts work perfect!!!! :rofl:
