Just got a z28
Hey guys just got a new car so I'll be hanging around here a bit. It's a red 96 z28 vert with an A4 bone stock. Not quite the ls1 6spd I dream of, but I can't complain. I traded in my pickup for it straight up, and I think I got a decent deal. I would upload some pics but they're way to big, if someones willing, I'll forward them.

Re: Just got a z28
Welcome to the forums! The guys here are pretty helpful and the cat fights are funny as all hell! There's nothing wrong with the lt-1 though. Who needs the top end of a ls1 when your riding an R1? Haha just a lowly 02' F4i over here <-----

I didn't realize that the Ls1s had no bottom end, if so then I'm glad I don't have one. I just rode in some a few times, they were modified so maybe that's why I was thrown off. Don't get me wrong I like the Lt1 and how it gets up and goes. Comming from a 4.3l pickup, it's a big change.
I plan on doing some minor things to it, like a pcm tune, intake and catback then I'll probably call it a day for the motor. I love having a convertable in AZ, but I really need to tighten up the suspension on this thing. It's way sloppier than my old firebird.
Nothing wrong with an F4i BTW. I started off on a 2003 zx6r. The R1 is way to much bike for the street, 180hp and 400lbs, damn thing does 90mph in first gear!

Re: Just got a z28
That's what I've heard. I won't ***** it up since this techinically isn't the right forum. But when I had el cheapo knockoff sfc on my t-top v6 it killed almost all the rattling. I think the only ones available for the vert are kbdd, so I guess that's my christmas gift. In the meantime I'll pick up a stb because I heard those will help for cheap.
just checkin' Nice car though. I like the Vert's but i LOVE the t-tops.~Cole~
