From Russia with love...

I greet you, dear neighbors. Yesterday visited the American cars show, came to look specifically at the camaro 2gen as I am the owner of 1980, saw the stand for your club the guys were very friendly and sociable, I told how difficult it is to restore the American car in Russia and I was advised to address here, in St. Petersburg, we have only 5 2gen and about 12 3gen cars. I hope to get support and advice here, as well as to buy a lot of parts for my camaro.

'll post pictures later of my car. Thank you.

Flying over feb 1st. Spending two nights in Stockholm, two in Vilnius and two in Helsinki before heading back to Stockholm for another two. My question to you guys is where are the fun places at night to go in Helsinki? I'm 27 so staying up late and having fun is what it's all about to me. Appreciate any feedback.

Hello, from New Hampshire

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 15:14:21 +0000

Hello to all of my ancestors over in Finland! My grandfather came to this country in the 1930's from Finland and he married my grandmother who was a second generation Finn. My father was born here but didn't learn English until first grade as all they spoke at home was Finnish. The town I live in is made up heavily of Finnish descendants, due to the fact that the Apostolic Lutheran Church is here. At least 1/3 of my graduating high school class was Finnish. Anyways, I wanted to join up here. About a year back I bought a 68 Camaro, clone RS/SS with a tired (too much spray) 383, Coan Racing TH400 and a 4 link. Just so you know the Camaro/ Trans-Am/ Mustang, esp Fox Bodies are what your relatives here are driving, in addition to Diesel trucks.

Here are the instructions how:

Go to your profile by clicking Profiili-button. From there click Perusasetukset-link and from the dropdown list adjacent to Käytettävä kielipaketti select English.

Where+How is my Old-T/A?

Thu, 17 May 2007 16:24:23 +0000

Hi there!

First i'd like to introduce myself.

My name is Alex, i'm 22 years old, and I live in Viersen, thats in Germany ( North-Rhine-Westfalia ) near to Düsseldorf.

My current car is a 1988 T/A, 5.7L TPI, 4thgen Leather Seats, Koni Yellow Shocks etc. Too much to list

In 2004 I had a Black 1988 T/A with grey interior in a perfect shape, non-ttop-version, 5.0L TBI, Edelbrock Chrome Air filter Housing.

I sold that car to a guy who wanted to do some engine+body-work and sell it to the next one. That guy is from Flensburg, so there'd be a huge possibility that the car went to Denmark, Norway, Finland or Sweden.

I'd like to see that car again, no matter if only on pics. My pics of that car are in such a bad quality

The VIN is : 1G2FW21E2JL221022

Would be great if we could find it

Some Pics of my old car:

As you see- Rare rear lights with orange turn lights. And 91/92 Rear Deck Spoiler instead of the older one.

Foglight bulb?

Thu, 11 May 2006 18:38:39 +0000

Hey guys,

Anyone have any luck getting a TA replacement foglight bulb? (GE 880), I found somewhere it may be a H27 bulb but that could have been wrong. Is there a European part number other than H27 used for these bulbs if they are even available here?

Thanks in advance.

Local programming/logging for LT1s?

Fri, 12 May 2006 20:15:06 +0000

Just out of curiosity, does anyone do programming for LT1s (OBD1) in Finland?

Been thinking about ordering myself a cable to log my TA, was just wondering if anyone here happens to do it.

New section?

Looks like we got ourselves a new section here, eh...?

Motor oil?

Tue, 07 Mar 2006 10:32:19 +0000

Hey guys,

I havent introduced myself here yet, because I dont spend much time on here. Basically I moved last November from Florida to Finland and brought my LT1 Trans Am with me. I am on LS1Tech alot with the same handle. I posted this in the English section because even though I can speak/understand Finnish, my writing skills are no the best.

Anyways, I need some help with motor oils over here. In Florida I would go with Castrol GTX 10w30, but over here the only Castrol GTX that I found was Magnatec, which is a Synthetic (and I prefer to stick with a Conventional oil).

Any recommendations on what to use? I did some searching and found some guys running 50 weights, which seems like alot. Also where can these oils be found (Im in Vantaa right now). The TA wont be driven in the winter at all. Also is a cross-reference filter availble from anywhere (if not I have a friend who should have some).

Thanks in advance. I plan on making it out to the American car show coming up next month.
