Default something wrong with a 95?

man i am starting to feel a little blue. every time i find a performance mod it is for a 96 or newer, what is the deal? why do they only have stuff for a 96 and newer? should i just swap a 96 motor into my truck and get it over with?

I feel your pain. The 95 is a class all in its own. Its the first year of the new style and then they changed everything agian in 96.

I know the pain. I owned an '86 Nissan with a "Z" pollution motor and could not find any real mods for it to make it go fast but the newer "K" series trucks used the motor out of 240sx and got all the power mods..

I think the main reason is that the '95 is a "tweener" with the OBD system so the aftermarket realiazed that it was going to be difficult to get parts to work with the computer so the just went with the '96-04 becuase the had standardized on OBDII and makes it easier to build parts for that system...

You are not the only one in '95 with this problem most of the GM cars for that era before '96 were that way...

hey, at least the parts could possibly be adapted to yours..... all the cool stuff like superchargers and turbo's aren't even thought of for my '91.....
