Quite literally! Camaros are probably my least favorite cars, especially that body style and down. The newer ones are ok, and late 60’s are :drool: However, they are hogs, so I can’t say anything about that!

I’m not a Chevy fan really but the LS1 is a hell of a motor. I remember being at the strip in 2000 and seeing Trans Ams tear down the strip running like 13s or something crazy and all they had was a K&N drop in.

lol, yeah. One of my friends had an LS1 w/ 150 shot of nos and he just about ripped off his bumper, or maybe it was his quarter panel? Either way, it had way too much power for the street tires he had on there. It was pretty funny actually. I think he only ran high 12’s/13’s because of it. He also had a very fixed up RX7 (rotary FTL) but it was the fasted car I have ever been in. I got cold chills when he took off and his tires literally skipped across the pavement and I was thrown back into my seat. Nuts! /ramble off.

His best time at the track was 12.1 w/ minimal mods: headers, cam, exhaust, drag radials. He hasn’t actually sprayed it yet but it’s setup for a 250 shot (I think).

It has the one thing every Honda lacks: torque. It’s quite beastly. It’s big, it’s loud, and it’s obnoxious. I love it. :wink:

Raised the rear two notches yesterday. I think it sits much better now and doesn’t scrape the shit out of my exhaust anymore.

Met up with some bros last night and ended up doing an impromptu shoot. They looked HORRIBLE. These are the few I was able to somewhat salvage.

dude!, sell me one of those hood bra. i want a red stitching

There was a guy on H-T that was interested in one too. After I told him how much I’d have to charge to make it worth my while he changed his mind.

I’d also need more than just one person interested, maybe like 5 people for me to consider making them. :sipread:

Lookin’ good as usual. That last pic is amazing. It looks like a shot that would be in a mag. It just makes me want a new car that much more. Man it must be nice! (minus the paymets).

It sure is purty, but a PITA to shoot. That paint just absorbs any and all light. I need a speedlight with the quickness. :run:

It’s hard to choose between Integra goodies or camera goodies. I’ll have some new parts soon though. :slight_smile:

I haven’t been up to much lately. I did swap out the old fluids with the old standbys. I also added a few more engine grounds yesterday. I ordered a couple new pieces for the car on Friday and one already came in yesterday! Summit Racing’s shipping ftw. More pics once I get it installed, perhaps Monday or Tuesday. The other piece will probably take a week or so from Cali (weksos).

Engine bay looks damn clean.

Do you have any pics of the hardware that came with your shocks?

Nah, I didn’t take any pics of it. If memory serves me right it came with:

(1) plastic washer per shock
(2) metal washers per shock
(1) metal collar per shock
(2) nuts per shock

Did that mod ever get back to you?

Not yet

Sorry for this noob question but I’m trying to learn as much as I can about, well everything. What is the benefit of adding more grounds to the engine?

Haha. That’s alright. Everybody’s got to start somewhere. :slight_smile:

Adding extra grounds helped stabilize my idle and brightened my interior/exterior lighting at idle.
