i have been mia from all the tgo meets and tgo updates..
its been about two months since ive re painted the car .. no PHOTOSHOP here. this is a custom blue with pearl, im waiting for the paint to fully cure and ill be adding some wax. once the weather clear ill have a photoshoot done by my photographer.

the wheels are 18x9.5 35mm offsets. im running a 1.25 inch spacer up front and the brembos look great in there!







direct sunlight snaps




still bone stock and i will be ordering my monster clutch this week.
if anyone knows of any good deals on new 295 35 tires lmk

 

you need to order that cam, I know someone that has a killer deal on one

 

Looks good.

Need to get it out and collect some rock chips

 

if you are looking for a great LS1 cam.. i used the GM ASA road racing cam.. its cheap, not peaky.. and has great torque down low...

my 98 LS1, had pacesetter long tubes, ORY, lid, LS6 intake and that cam.. and made 375rwhp on a DynaPack5000... it made 396rwhp on a dynoJet..

by the way, what wheels are those? the look like BBS knockoffs.. like the BBS RGT

 

Pictures don't do the paint justice, the paint really stands out in the sun. You need to set up the photo shoot as soon as the weather clears.

Order that clutch, I have spring break coming up. We can swap it and test it out with some hwy runs!!

 

DUDE!!! That looks SOOOOOOOOOO SWEET!

 

very bad ***!

is there a reason for no front fender liners or they are still off from paint? i'm on the fence about leaving mine on

 

sweet ride.

 

thanks for the compliments...

yeh they dont! the photographer says he cant wait for the new shoot

as for the clutch i cant wait.. !!

ive seen that cam out for quiet a while. i think people even used stock ls6 springs..
not sure if i want to go with a 226 or 228 cam just yet. ibut m leaning towards biger cubes if i ever come accross a deal.

yeaap bbk reps very similar to rgts possibly 20lbs lighter than my old c5 z06 reps wheels! *combined

tempting ill keep that deal in mind. im kinda satisfied with the stock rwhp but that cam is within the specs i have been looking at

lol its hard to keep this car clean !!

yeah they are off from the paint. my old ones looked like crap. i wanted new gm pieces but they only sell the driver side.. i am also missing my front nose emblem, door sills and misc. interior parts that needed to be replaced.

 

your paint looks killer and I know you wanted to go a different route with rims and stand apart which it does but I miss ur z06 rims. Sorry for the oppinion your Your car still looks frekin awesome. The paint I have in my engine bay is a similar color. What was the orginal color you mixed with

 

the rims look expensive? where did you get them?

 

Wow..

 

So what kind of windshield is that? As in who did it? The hard black line looks really good. Mine is cracked and I need a new one.

 

I didnt even notice that that does look really good

 

That's one sweat ride u got there
Looks even better since the last time I saw it in person I am just speechless wow

 

That is one sweat ride.hope to see it in person one day

 

Saw it at Bob's a few weeks back. Looks pretty damn good.

 

MMMmmmmm! Nice! Love the color! That looks like the kind of color I have been searching for, for the RS.

 

Windshield? I don't recall its not the original one.
Thanks for the comments.. I am awaiting for my monster clutch..
I'm looking into installing it sometime this month. And I'm looking into a good exhaust guy who can build me a nice x pipe with some nice clamps suitable for easy removal.

I know jerry has the right skills and experience but he's a busy guy. I want to add some bracing to the front suspension. And mid brace by my tranny k member.

I am gettin in contact with koni one of my koni yellows appears to be defective. Hope to get the car running properly with my clutch, alignment and some new tires.

 

Its cool, but seeing yours was enough for me to go get mine replaced lol. Very glad I did, I honestly have to say a new windshield has been my favorite thing I think, and it was one of the cheapest things I've done to my car.

 

Any suggestion what color should I get my calipers painted?? Should I leave them silver..or same blue with a silver brembo decal v ctsv logo?

I have my headlight covers and been wanting to put them on.

 

Car looks awesome, love the wheels. Silver, matching Blue, Black, or Red all work for the calipers. Personally, I'd go with Silver or Black.

What brand wheels are those? They look like BBS replicas. I'd like to put some BBS LM replicas on my car, but I'm trying to figure out the type of adapter to run and how to do the offset/spacing...

 

Not bad! I'm thinking about a coil and a half will set the rear dead level with the front

 

im thinking of color matched brakes and vette fuel rail covers. idk yet. yeah they are bbs reps in bmw offsets. very similar to the lms.

thanks. not sure but i really cant tell in person. maybe i just don't really pay close attention to it but in the pics you can tell

 

I have yet to lower a 3rd gen and have it come out completely level. First you cut the coil spring isolators, the it's a 1/2 coil that turns in to 1 1/2 or two depending on the spring, jack it back up, lower it back down... Dude I'm getting tired just thinking about it LOL! The important part is that the car looks great, love the wheels

 

Ill try that soon. I'm not runnng isolators but I did the hose mod.

I will be installing my clutch hopefully next week or week after that. Current exhaust system is up for sale I am waiting for my new set up.
