man that car is looking sharp, nice job.

 

well i got the tips today. they look really good for what they cost. 30.00 i will get them put on in a week. other than that, nothing new. well, i did get my speedo adapter for the tremec. now i don't have to guess how fast i am speeding.

 

Lookin' good!!! We'd love to see it at Thirdgen Fest. You can find out all through the link below.

 

well i would love to come, but i think finances are going to keep me home for the next few weekends. i am getting the tips put on saturday and will then post pics. On Wednesday i got it insured and tagged. so i took it for a good spin last night. i had a 2010 yellow w/black stripes camaro stop to say high and look at it. i'll post those pics when i get off work.

 

what kind of seats are they? and do your seat belts fit good down on the floor, cause i had trouble adjusting my seats back and forth.

 

i don't know exactly the brand but they look identical to the jegs/summit seats. i have no problems with the seats sliding. i had to heavily modify the stock brackets to mount the seats.

 

Everything looks great! Where did you order the tips from?

 

ebay-30 dollars. they look really nice. definitely worth the money.

 

well ended up going to third gen fest. had a blast. did a little burnout, won a trophy......possibly bent a valve? it was all worth it. heres a link to the vid. thanks for the guy that posted it. hope to see you all in the future.

Great work and it looks awesome, but I hate those wheels.

 

I get error message trying to view the video dude.

 

Go to YouTube and look up third Gen fest 09 then. It's there.

 

all i have to say is damn!!!!!!!!!!! she sexay

 

thanks. things left to do.... Brake conversion (haven't decide LS1/Vette), strut brace, upper strut mounts, Chrome-in eng bay, new tint, steering box, steeda shifter, wheels/tires in chrome/polish, and some grill mesh for hood and fog light opening. Oh, and change a few things on eng. possibly bigger head, rpm air-gap intake, carb spacer, carb, and.....Zex Black perimeter kit. 150hp pill.

 

Tell me you didn't wash that carpet back into that shape. I may have missed that part but it sounded like you said you shampooed it. If so.. thats amazing!

 

I did the panels that had carpet. I put in new main carpet, I wish it would of cleaned up that well. I would have saved some money. Have you put my car on your pic site yet? What's the best way to get you pics?

 

not much new, getting ready to head to california. anybody have more ideas on what exterior mods i should or could do? besides rims?

 

Where in California you headed?

 

Very nice IROC. Later.

 

camp pendleton. i will most likely live in murrieta and will have the car up in mentone when i do my eng mods around new year. i'll have to hit you up some time whens she's back on the road.

 

the two holes where the fog lights go, put some black or silver mesh behind them. car looks good as always!

 

Sounds good.

 

i have no words to say on how pretty she looks! super nice ride man! A+

 

VERY NICE BUILD. i did a search to see what 10 Spokes looked like and found this.

NICE CAR.

 

Subscribed...nice build so far. Congrats.

 

thanks for all the compliments. by the way, i didn't mention it here but i tore it apart (motor) and i had two solid lifters break all their rollers. so now the plan is some ignition upgrades, possilbly AFR 210 or competition 195's. and i had decided to stay away from nitrous. i go to Afghanistan in May some most will get done after taxes. and new rims when i get back. i'll post some more pics i took yesterday.

 

What's your ride height? I'm also thinking about those wheels.

 

Eibach sportlines. Dropped it about 1 1/2 in. in front. 1 in the rear. I eventually will be selling the wheels. I have not measured the car from the ground but it sits low.

 

I like this version.

 

hey, car looks great, how did the ss wheels fit?
did u need spacers? what size?

 

That looks great bro. Tryin to finish up mine but its going on hold to I leave for Afghanistan in Dec, so i will finish mine when i get back also. But that looks great, if mine comes out half as nice i will be happy

 

really nice car. The Red turned out Excellent. And a 406 SBC too, my bro has a 406 longrod in his 2nd gen they are pretty wild i cant imagine what it would be like in a lighter 3rd gen.
P.S. watch out for Little old ladys in Grocery getters their front bumpers are attracted to fresh paint.

 

2 inch on all four corners. Fits perfect.

 

You are doing a beautiful job on this, everything looks great. Paint is awesome and thanx for all the info, also thank you for all you do for this great country!!!

 

Hey man the car looks great! You payed attention to detail which is ALWAYS cool!

I just bought a set of 10 Spoke SS Wheels this week. I posted a help thread on fitment, which i haven't got many replies for. So i hope you dont mind me asking a couple questions. Im not intending to be the "copy cat guy", but your 10 Spokes fit just right!

I see you replied that you are running 2" Spacers all the way around. I have heard that some spacers are garbage, and require drilling of the center bore for a snug fit. Those are the spacers id like to stay away from..lol

What brand Spacer are you running? Did they give you any issues? Where can i find them? Website maybe?

I have seen people with the 10 Spokes that run 2" spacers, and it looks like their wheels REALLY stick out. Did you make any other suspension modifications besides the drop to make them fit so flush?

And you have a 2" drop all the way around with Sportlines correct? Any rubbing issues on the fenders, or inner wheels grinding on any of the suspension?

I will try and read through your thread tomorrow and see if i can answer some of my own questions. But if you get this first..lol..any answers and help would be appreciated. I really cant wait to get my 10 Spokes on, but i DO want to do it right the first time.

Thanks man,
Chris.

 

I got mine off eBay. I haven't had any problems even getting on the gas hard. I don't have any rub issues and my rear is a moser 12 bolt that measured a half inch on each side.

 

well i haven't done anything to the car. bought two quads instead....got to love riding in the dunes..i am now leaving in april for afghan. i will fix and improve on some things when i get back and take it to the track...i'll update next time after some mods.

 

new favorite pic

 

amazing maro

 

Absolutely awesome looking IROC!!! You have done a great job. BTW, I like the mismatched ground effects...it gives it a different look.

and thanks for your service.. I head off to Army Boot in May...

 

it was by accident but it definetly grew on me...thanks for the compliments!

 

I love your car Dave. Super job!! Thanks for your service to our great country.

 

Great job man, your car is an inspiration!

 

well i am in afghanistan now and things over here are not to bad. sure can't wait to get home and finish up the list of things i still have to do. thanks all for the compliments.

 

lookin good.

 

Did you make the panel for the rear seat delete
Do you have any pictures of it
Sweet ride

 

no i haven't yet. i leave here in just over a month...i'll be doing a lot to it come taxes. i didn't have time to do the rear panel. i was playing with my quads in Glamis before i came over here.

 

back home now. still planning on fixing the motor come taxes....and then hitting up third gen fest 11! also looking at changing rims, the ones on now will be for sale with spacers included. look for them come March.

 

Looks good.

Only Suggestion I have, is to Tint the Brake Light in the Spolier, Would hide it in the stripe.
