Default Just picked up my 99 EM1

Alright i found this one ebay and right away drove to the guys house and offered him 6500 after a test drive. Oh boy do i like this car.
I was like ha i have an SI!








Next to my gf's car

So this car is a 99 SI with 81k miles. Needs a few things like new tires, headunit, connect speakers, and do oil change and tranny fluid. Do you see the little spoiler? if i remove it theres three holes on the trunk, anyone know of plugs that will fill those holes? Also removed those subs hoping to sell the setup for a good price so i can get some nice sticky tires. Broke this piece of crap so i cant open my hood until i fix it...

Where would i purchase GM synchromesh and would you guys recommend to use synthetic on the b16 or just normal oil and what weight? Thank you! any questions?

I didnt think you could get an Si for that cheap! Good find I broke my hood latch too, its less than $20 at the dealership. You will have to unbolt the splash shield to get access to it. Good luck with the new project

Use syntehtic oil 5w 30, you can use gm syncrhomesh since ur having problems with the syncrho's but you should rather get that tranny fixed since it that oil will only cover it up for awhile. Good find

My goodness that's a great price. Just lose that pinstripe!

Seriously though, EM1s always seem to go for $10k if they have anywhere between 60k and 100k somehow!

Weird that it has EX spoiler on it though...what's up with that?
