Its been awhile since I have posted this up in the gallery. A lot has changed though. Actually, my last thread about my gun is gone.
As you can see, I still don't have the hardcore upgrades yet (HPA, LPK, REG, and E-Bolt). Here she is. 
Well, its all in my sig, but this is everything I have. 98c, RVA, Rocket Cock, JnJ Ceramic 14", Dye Sticky Grips, Double Trigger, LED Mod (you can't see it in the pic), Empire Reloader, CIP Speedy Drop, 20 oz CO2, Remote Line (no longer used), Red Dot (not shown right now). Next upgrades will probably be HPA, or a Reg. Don't know which first. That will be awhile, I gotta trick my car first  . I have actually slowly been migrating from paintball, to car...
Enjoy, feel free to rate/critique it. Flame it if you wish, but give a good reason. -------------

All you need is some kind of HPA or Reg. Other than that,
nothing. I think all Tippmanns should be mainly mechanical...

Well, see that is the problem. I dont HAVE the car yet. Here is the long story short.
My sister got to buy a car of my parents for a decent price. Now, she wants to buy a car, and she will give her original car to me for a good price. Lemme find a pic here. 
She got the chromies on it. My Plans, right off the bat:
Then there are some things that are going to have to be replaced just because of age:
And when I am all done with that I can pull high 14's at the track, but you never know. Its quite unfortunate that it doesn't have the supercharger up top, but that would kill me on insurance. EDIT: Sorta forgot about under the hood though. Right now it is all stock, but incase you don't know much about the car. It has a 3800 series I motor that puts out around 215 HP and 205 ft/lbs. EDIT2: Forgot some things. Notice the corners of the head lights are yellow. Clear those out so they are white. They look a lot better when you do that. Then the tail lights, I am going to have to get VHT night shades . Its like tint for your tail lights. It completely blacks them out, but when there is a light on behind it, they look normal. Its pretty pimp.
EDIT3: Yeah, it will be a sleeper car -------------

Hmmmm, can someone say poor sense of environment? What you are seeing is the lack of a shadow on the wall and the ground. But, if you notice the pic, the gun, and its surroundings, are already in a shadow from the tree/house/whatever that is above. ------------- http://www.tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=114970&PN=8">

Well, after about 20 minutes of staring at the bulbs at radio shack, I decided on red. It goes with the color scheme right...nope, not at all lol. I got it because all the blue ones that I wanted took a lot higher voltage. I figured this was the brightest one that I could get, without needing a pack of 10 batteries on my gun . I think I will change it in a while, get a new color pimping inside there.-------------

not a chance that thing will run 14 seconds, man you people watch too much Fast and Furious (none of those cars would do 10) man my camaro only runs 15, and its a 350 5.7L V8, unless you rip out your motor and put a small block chev 383 stroker then maybe you can hit 13's (12's if its done up) . Do you think your neons are gonna give you like....100 horsepower? nah didnt think so, good luck running 16's buddy.... and if you get it insured then put a super charger in then your safe, they wont know.
im thinking im gonna go blue cause i think it would look awsome, can LEDS run off 9v batteries? ------------- ~~SiLeNt-ScOpE~~

http://highboost.com/movies/TitanRace/TitanPromo2004.wmv - http://highboost.com/movies/TitanRace/TitanPromo2004.wmv Yeah, its no bonne, but its fast. This car did the 1/4 mile in 8.7 seconds I think. This car actually needs nitrious because the turbo is so big it won't spool up fast enough without it. Right now I can't find the print off with the track times for some of the bonnevilles in my club. But the supercharged bonne can do 15.6 at 85.7 MPH. The only mods were to the airbox. THe stock air box really constricts the airflow. Thats it, just the airbox, no new pully, no exhaust mods, nothing. Meh, I can't find the print outs anywhere. Sorry, I have been looking for about 20 minutes. The 14 was just a number I threw out there. I was actually supprised. I applaude you  . I was just waiting for some punk ricer wanna be come in here to say that 14 was really slow and their car can pull 9's. But a bonneville can run 16's. The one that I JUST watched a video for did it in 16.7(something). But it is heavily modded.
But yeah, sorry, I just thought that was a reasonable number to toss out with no factual background. Im sorry.  -------------

dont be sorry, i just thought you MIGHT (which i guess your not) one of those belivers in rice and that watch fast and furious and actually think those cars could run 10's....not a chance man, I goto drags almost everyweek out here, i see 1500 <--- yes 1500 horsepower cars run 10's, show me a ricer with 1500 horse. But yeah looks like your car is in good shape, if i had pics of mine i would show you it, but i dont (and i would get flamed for no paintball post) but eayh please dont put a fart can muffler on it they make me sad.....but yeah keep up the good work ttyl and to keep this on topic i like your gun ------------- ~~SiLeNt-ScOpE~~

OH, no no. I plan on going magnaflow high flow cat and muffler. No fart cans, although that would be interesting to see what that would sound like on a domestic car .
Heh, imagine a ricer with half the HP you are talking. I highly doubt that the tranny could take that, even once. To keep on topic...Thanks for the compliments. -------------

1994 Bonneville SLE V-6, 3800, Stock it is around 200 HP and 205 foot pounds. But because of its age, it probably has lost some HP, due to dirty throttle body, original plugs and wires, etc.
As for oil changes, they have always been done every 3000 miles. Right now the car really can put you back in your seat, and I would assume after a full tune up, and minor upgrades it will be suprising, but obviously not a sports car though. It'll be some what of a sleeper though. TO keep this bad dawg on topic, you are SO right, the LED mod is ownzorz -------------
