Your speedo will read 150 if it had z rated tires if not it will read 115 I beleve. Nice car I love that year

Thanks guys.The speedo goes to 155 so i should be good. lol. I was thinkin about savin up for some headers, but with the car payments and insurance payments, it might be a while. My dad is taking it to work tomrrow, to fix some of the little things, like the driver door lock not responding to the auto lock thing (the lock button) and hopefully find the freon leak, the AC really sucks ***, the vent is colder and its 95 degrees outside lol.

im gonna call you out on that. i think it doesnt matter about the tires, it matters about the rear end ratio, i THINK!!! it might not be the ratio but im almost positive it doesnt matter about the tires, the tires simply effect what the speed limiter is set at. its either 108 or 116 or something with non Z tires or unlimited with them.

Yea, i really like the exahust, but the its starting to rust. Its sounds really good imo. These guys were revvin there trucks in the walmart parking lot, so i threw my moms grocieries in the back, started the car, and gave em a taste of some real exhuast lol.

As for the decal, I'm thinkin about takin it off the window, my friends' dad does vinyl signs for budweiser and he can make me a better one if i want it. I am getting him to make me a blackout for the high rise brake light thats lights up "Z28". He did it on his daughters z24 cavalier and it looks pretty sweet.


One more question:

Was the 30th anniversary SS was the just the convertible? I've only seen z28s as coupes and convertibles as SSs

The modding commenced today. We took off the rear decal, fixed the AC, and installed new exhuast. The exhuast cuts from each single pipe into 2 small tips. I guess that's how to explain, yall should know what i'm talking about though.

Yea, exactly. Magnaflows i do believe, the old ones were flowmasters so thats an upgrade? It sounds a lot better because it doesn't rattle anymore. How much hp do stock LT1s have? 285 or 300? God, i guess I should research my car a little lol.

Eh, there under "Everyones car" there are five new pics, most of which are the new exhaust and the back window after removing the decal. there's one of the interior, which is brand new.
