Welcome Matt from CA to the Monte Carlo Forum. Glad to hear you found a low milage Monte. Tell us about it. Got some pics?

 

Welcome to the forum!
Congrats on your car.
Chris (scc24540) and Chad (couch) will probably have some great ideas for your 5th generation Monte.

 

yea more 5th gens ! what are you looking to do to your car? my first stop to give you some ideas would be ebay for sure. if ya have any questions just ask. though i'd say Chris is the resident expert on 5th gens

 

 

Good going on a low miles Monte...wellcome to the forum as I`m sure you will have a few interesting discussions in here as well as a few good tips. Enjoy the ride!

 

thanks for all the support guys. Well i do not have any pictures for it yet, but i was just going to do the normal. Some intake, and maybe exhaust, and a few other little things. The car was purchased off one older gal, who's husband past away, and they only used the car going to jackson rancheria. (a local indian casino). One owner, took excellent care of the vehicle. Well good to hear from you all. Thanks.

 

what motor do you have, as that will help as to what the best mods are. Congrats on the new car.

 

It's the 3100 LS, not the Z34 unfortunately. BUt the engine runs great. I have been used to driving a 2.0L Mercury Mystique, although i fixed it up quite a bit, the Monte Carlo has plenty more power.

 

I had the 3100 engine in my '91 Z24. Good engine. Installed really good plugs, performance wires, K&N air intake, 2-3/4 inch exhaust front to back with a high flow cat. Sounded awesome and performed great! Didn't have any major engine issues either. It was very reliable.
