If I figure out how to post high res pix I'll take these down and post the high res ones. But for now, I figured you guys might enjoy these. Post up your fall pix of ya got em.

What type of rims are those they are very nice? I think they would look good with an all black car.

They are aftermarket copies of the C4 Grand Sport wheels. 17x9.5 up front and 17x11 rear. The rears tuck way in compared to most because of the minitub work and IRS swap.Originally Posted by ZWis212

One thing though--You are aware that the IROC logo should be at the front of the door on an 86 right? It wasnt moved to the back of the door until 88.

The car is a rebuild salvage. It has a 383 stroker, TREMEC TKO600 trans, 6pt roll bar, Kirkey road race seat, 6pt harness, no cruise, no radio, no ac, and I cut the back of the car to pieces swapping an independent rear suspension from a 96 Corvette. Originality is the LEAST of my concerns, I put the decals where I liked them best.Originally Posted by IROC#1

That's kinda the point. I like that it seems like it's just a stocker with wheels. My favorite hobby is thumping on unsuspecting 5th gen owners with more dollars than sense.....Originally Posted by IROC#1
Gotcha! I had no idea you had modified the car so extensively! Your right, put the decals where you want them! Nice shots Sean. I really like the one with the road trailing off in the background. The photos bleach your wheels out more than I thought they would, my pix did it too. They are a dead match for the silver on your belt stripe, I would not have expected them to do that. We need some pix of that thing at Gingerman!

Hey all, first time on here. Just bought this bird last Fri from CA and drove home to Utah. I had been looking for a third gen Camaro or GTA Trans-Am until i came across this Firebird on eBay and had to have it. Every time i drive this car i'm amazed at how well its been taken care of. It has WS6 and W66 options too. 305 is gone though. Replaced with a 350 w/TBI which is nice. EVERYTHING works (minus third brake light. Its in a box. Wrap-around wing was taken off b/c it was in bad shape). Work done by 2nd owner:
Mods:
-High performance Throttle Body
-Full length Heddman headers
-MSD Coil
-Summit ignition wires
-K&N Air Filter
-Crane cam and lifters kit installed about 5k miles ago.
-Shift kit (shifts firm)
-Fuel pressure regulator and gauge
-Custom Chip to complement mods.
-IROC Z posi differential WITH rear wheel brakes 3.23 gears and correct proportioning valve for 4 wheel disc brakes!!!
-Lowered 1" with aftermarket springs-done the right way.
-B&M Shifter
I also got some really nice Pirellis for the rear, and a louder Flowmaster RPM series muffler with nice rectangular tips with the sale (ill prob sell the Flowmasters. I dont think i need it. car sounds nice right now, but i dont know how the Flowmasters sound...).

...Im thinking of maybe selling the wheels too, and going with the stock Formula wheels that are supposed to be on there.
PE0 - WHEEL, 16 X 8, ALUMINUM, LIGHT WEIGHT, STYLED
QDZ - TIRE ALL, P245/50VR16/N BL R/PE ST TL HW4
12P - WHEEL COLOR PLATINUM
Those are the option codes for the wheels it came with from factory according to the option codes sticker.
I do have a concern though. I was reading some thread on here the other day, and someone found out they're formula was actually a base Firebird with a "sticker kit". Well, my vin is 1g2fs21e..., so it is a Firebird with the 305 v8 TBI, but one of the options listed on the sticker is K34 - CRUISE CONTROL, AUT0MATIC, ELECTRONIC , which is nowhere to be found on the car. So im wondering if this is a "sticker kit". Either way, its still a beautifull car in excellent condition. Hopefully there are other Utah people on here bc i would love to go to third gen gatherings and such.

Thanks so much Ben Jammin!! I have been wondering what a center style exhaust with dual round tips would look on one of these cars for a while now and pondering the idea in my head if I was going to do it or not. You just helped me decide on a YES, lol. And no rush, but I'd love to see how it is run underneath as well, in the rear area and just over the gas tank.

Member
I think your car looks great, it has that pro touring look to it! I wonder how square exhaust tips would look though?

bbgun11, very nice RS!! Have you considered doing the headlight buckets black?? or do you like it all red? I know when I got my car back from paint the paint guys had forgotten to pain the buckets, and it just looked unfinished . So I got a can of gm trim black and a light abrasive pad.,taped it off and bam I had buckets and it made a huge difference. Seemed to add contrast and a little depth to the front end. Either way, beautiful car man (:

Thanks! I've never even thought about blacking them out but I like the idea! I think it would look pretty good! After I put some heritage stripes on I'll think about doing the buckets.

Ben jammin beautiful bird, i think a nice drop would make it look even sexier, nothing crazy though.

Thanks, i appreciate it. I was thinking the same thing about the drop. It's been lowered 1 inch, but i do think another wouldn't hurt. Around my area in Utah roads aren't too bad. I was looking at the car, and i think b/c of the big wheels, its hard to see the drop.Originally Posted by karl's-92'-z28
