Re: Project:No replacment for displacment.

Mods are Stainless Works longtube headers, no cats, a magnaflow cat back, and a blacksomethingorother air filter. It also has a shifter.

I took some other pics but the car turned out very orange in them due to the sun.

Frist "mod" I do is going to be some tires. It needs them BAD, I was down to 25 PSI in the front and they were just barely starting to roll over. No grip at all. It's looking like I'll be going with Kumho XS's in 275f and 315R, as none of the other good street tires are available in the proper sizes.

Looks very nice Ryan, congradulations on the pickup. I know you are a savvy shopper and probably got a very good deal on it. How many miles? What options? Year?

It's an 2003 Z06, with almost 59K on it. So, 405HP LS6, and big tires (265 front, 295 rear) I didn't spend long looking. Decided to buy A Z06 Sunday night and had this one at home on Thursday. I had a few people going but it was a good deal and I didn't want to miss out.

Not legal for autocross. Boost is legal.

Screw autoX rules! Leave it off for autoX and spray it on the street/strip. Hell to the yes!

Re: Project:No replacment for displacment.

^x2 I am sure the car has enough power to be good in autocross with proper suspension/tire setup. Nitrous sounds fun

Nice purchase! Lets see 1000hp on 87. Ditch that turning shit, just pressing th gas and holding on requires way more skill anyways.
