Just picked this up today, it has power everything, rear discs, posi, 5.7. from what i understand the 90s are pretty rare? any info on this is appreciated as i am new to the irocs

 

Nice looking car.
Yea, they are 70% more rare than finding an 82-89 Camaro.
What do you know already about this car?

 

Not a whole lot just my basic knowledge of the third-gen. also this car has dual cats, is that standard or option?

 

Should be standard with the 5.7, correct me if I'm wrong. Congrats on the new IROC! We just picked up a 1990 IROC a few weeks ago as well, can't wait to see yours finished

 

You people and your 90 IROC's your so lucky I want one, but Im happy with my 89 though how much did you pick it up for looks like it got most of the rare options

 

awesome...an IROC without black headlight pockets!!!!

 

me thinks it's been repainted some time ago

 

definately a repaint but congrats on picking up a 90. i'm talking to a guy trying to get him to sell me his 90 vert.

 

Now a 90 vert....that is a rare find!...hehe

 

Yea no kidding I am sure that thing could pull some serious $$$ especially if it's a 5spd. I wonder what is more sought after, a '90 G92, a '90 L98, or a '90 convertible?

 

yep its originally red.. does anyone know all the options that could be had with the 90
for all the comments

 

The 90 G92 with The L98

 

not possible...G92 cars were a 5spd car and the L98 could only be had with a 700R4.

 

Yes, Possible you could only get the L98 With the G92 option. You had better do a little research.

 

It's deff rare, but not enough for Barret Jackson.

A great find for anyone looking for the rare third gens.

 

im pretty sure this is a g92 l98 car

 

yuuup 90 IROCs are pretty rare.. mine has the L98 but no power options.. no power windows.. no power door locks I guess thats just how it was ordered.. but yeah has the B2L RPO code in the glove box so its a legit 5.7 and all.. congrats though..

 

ahhh ok, so then the G92 is just the rear axle and disc brakes then. I thought G92's were also 5spds, nevermind then. I'm wondering what code on my RPO sheet is the one for the 5spd then?

 

im confused as to whats the difference from the g80 and g92.. i thought g92 had fog lamp delete or is that if you had no a/c? what options are standard on the iroc?

 

G80 is posi-trac.

 

G80 and G92 have nothing to do with fog lamps, they are all in terms of which rear end you have in the car.

 

what is the difference?

 

G92 is the performance rear end with either 3.23 or 3.42 gears, and rear disc brakes.

 

haha there is nothing like owning 2 90-iroc verts. the red one just sits in the garage cause of the low 17k miles on it and the white one is my daily driver/race car.

 

isn't MM5 the code for the 5spd?

 

I was working on a trade.. my car for a mint and stock '90 iroc.. too bad it fell through.

nice find.. did you get it cheap?

 

depends on what you consider cheap?

 

was it running when you bought it?


ours was running when we got it, and it looks just like it does now except the interior was stuffed into the hatch. it needed a new clutch and needed some exhaust work because someone did a hack job when installing the muffler. It had 95,xxx miles on it and I consider it cheap that we got it for $3,500 considering it's a '90 G92 5spd. What did you pay for yours?

 

I got it for 1800 its running but needs some engine work probably a new head gasket. Everything else works like it should. 156000 miles on it engine rebuilt 40000 ago.

 

I've been told that the VIN number on a 1990 IROC-Z is worth $1,000 in itself. Consider yourself a theif

 

Why do you think it needs a head gasket? What are the symptoms?

 

the previous owner said it overheated and he replaced the water pump, hoses and temp sending unit. when its running you can hear it has a miss

 

90 iroc 350 w/ dual cats.. quite a nice find. How many miles on it? I didnt see you mention that. Also, is that an early 50's pontiac i see there?

 

156,000 on the body, and yea thats a pontiac a 47 I think. Its not mine these pics are from the sellers house it is for sale though.
