Bought another Z06.

Crash · 04-26-2010, 07:20 PM

Wednesday I picked her up. She's a little slower than my blue one, but that'll change by the end of this week. The day I bought her, I had a billion mods ordered!

My girlfriend is a little worried I'm going to pay more attention to the car than her. She's wrong, but I don't want to make the car jealous, so I'll be careful around the car.

m4a1mustang · 04-26-2010, 07:24 PM

LOVE IT! I really want a red C5 Z06 as a track car.

AK370Z · 04-26-2010, 07:24 PM

VERY nice man! I love it! Z06

It's really good to hear from you again. I'm guessing everything was alright from the previous crash.

Wish you good luck with the car and def keep us posted with all the mods. I'm a huge fan of LSX engine myself!

BTW, I like this yellow one a lot better than the previous blue. Those rims are one of my fav rims. When I had my 4th gen f-body, I wanted to put those on my camaro!

She's a Beauty Crash, Congrats and what Mods are you planning? by the way your girlfriends right. lol

theDreamer · 04-26-2010, 07:27 PM

Congrats man, so what did you order?

fullmonty · 04-26-2010, 07:54 PM

Congrats man!

jaco · 04-26-2010, 09:51 PM

me want. Looks very nice.

frost · 04-26-2010, 09:55 PM

Long time no see crash! Z is looking good, I like the color more. We're two of a kind, had (2) 03 z06s a few years ago. A black one followed by a red one.

ChrisSlicks · 04-26-2010, 09:59 PM

Very nice. What mods do you have lined up?

Ivoidwarranty · 04-26-2010, 10:50 PM

Yeah, I want to know what mods you have ordered too.

Endgame · 04-26-2010, 10:56 PM

Wow. Blast from the past!! What's up Crash! Nice Z06!! As stated before, please update with performance part list!!!!! AND pics!!!!!!

CrownR426 · 05-13-2010, 11:16 AM

Congrats and keep us posted on the mods!

looking great in that yellow and hey, she has to understand that a man and his ride is on another level!

SoCal 370Z · 05-13-2010, 11:28 AM

Great acquisition on your part, enjoy!!!

Crash · 05-15-2010, 09:27 PM

Hey... Sorry, I've been so busy working on the car! LOL

Thanks everyone. I love the color too. Quite a bit more than the blue.

I installed the RSD "snap" shifter which is so much better than stock. Stock, the shifter's throw was so long you could hear the wind gusts over my hand as I shifted. New shifter is short and stout!

I installed the Vararam CAI. By far the best purchase yet. The car pulls like a freaking freight train now. I kept up with my friend's Supercharged LS1 C5 Vette. He's running 9Lbs of boost. But he also had nearly 500Lbs on me. (Passenger)

I installed the halo tail lights. They're just cool looking and they're LEDs so they're instant on. Before my brakes would tell people I'm stopping. These new LEDs are so bright that it screams "I'M STOPPING!" LOL

I bought new exhaust stuff and the car is getting that installed and tuned this month. My base line dyno was 355RWHP, but my AFR was way rich, so after the exhaust and tune I'm hoping to make 390RWHP. The car weighed in at 3070Lbs which is 10Lbs lighter than my blue Z.

I ordered in some LED replacements for other lights around the car and a few other little things for aesthetics. I'm thinking about ordering in a powerduct but not sure I want to spend $150 for 5rwhp.

Anyway, that's the update so far. Much to do and little time to do it in.

BTW, I'll be at LA Invasion this year so we'll see what kind of 1/4mi I run. I'm expecting low 12's, but hoping for high 11's. We'll see.
