Girlfriend's new car

[bottlefed97]

awesome car, my only gripe about them was how they made the vettes and camaros with such huge center consoles. I would imagine driving stick in those things would be rather uncomfortable with the shifter sitting at like chest height.

Believe it or not I like the way the shifter sits better than the stang lol. I dunno it's just me, kinda like sitting in a Supra

does she have any mods she plans to put on?

It already has:

-Aftermarket Intake
-Ported 78mm TB
-F.A.S.T. 78mm Intake manifold
-Kooks long-tube headers
-Kooks X-pipe
-No cats
-Titanium muffler and tips
-B&M Ripper Shifter
-Nitto 555R tires (rear)

So the only thing coming in the near future would possibly be these wheels:

Those side vents have always been venting for the rear brakes. One of the Z06 package items. The front brakes get their venting from the openings in the front facia if I recall correctly.

As far as I can recall, the Corvette of that generation (especially the Z06) has always had the exhaust come out the rear.

Gotcha. Learn something new everyday..

Those wheels would look awesome on there. Why haven't we heard an exhaust video yet? That exhaust combo sounds LOUD.

sick ride dude... I'd give my left nut to afford the cars that you guys have. My dad's best friend had an 01 z06 and it was pretty nasty.

it doesn't have a bigger cam in it? you sure it makes 417 to the wheels on a stock cam?

Yep, he showed us the dyno sheets from all the tuning he did.

He also had the time slip showing 11.4 @ 121

 

[atlanticblue98]

needs to get Bottle Fed

EDIT: the stock exhaust is made out if Titanium, that is probably why it is "quiet"

Yea the muffler/tips are the only part of the exhaust that is stock

Well they are rated at 405 to the flywheel from the factory, about 380 to the wheels. The car made 417 to the actual wheels lol

Nice car.


Corvette > Mustang

 

[OnyxCobra]

I agree with Paul on this one, although I do feel Vettes are sometimes over-rated and over-hyped.

His girlfriend doesn't meet standard corvette owner criteria. old white guy in bermuda shorts, a flowered shirt, sandals, a gold chain and the top button undone with some white hair pouring out.

My buddys step dad is your typical vette owner, its amusing

sounds like most of the owners who bring in their automatic Corvettes to get our most expensive car wash for their precious mid-life crisis.
