Just looked it up, you're right, it's really nice. Too bad, but at least you have that GTP, which gives you something to work with, unlike my GT, lol.Originally Posted by 4THGENCAMAROFAN
No...however I was sooooo close to getting a Mystic Teal 6 speed LT1...the guy still had the original window sticker for it...nice freakin car
I have a 30th anniversary RS camaro now...i kinda wanna do an LS1 and T56 swap.
T56? That uses a hydraulic clutch, doesn't it? Good transmisison.
12-11-2010
Get a formula then.
12-11-2010
The T5's from the eighties F bodies had hydraulic clutches as well.

My bad, lol. I'm not really into modifying transmissions since they're so complicated for me. I don't know much about them, either. I stick to engine, suspension, and brake work. But hey, I'm no mechanic.
Yeah, I searched pictures for the car and saw some pretty nice ones. Beautiful car. For me though, I'm going to go all black on the Trans Am, and black everything out.Looked what up? the color? 1997 Chevy Camaro Z28 With Mystic Teal Paint Photo 10
I love that pic...its like quaser blue on the left side of the bumper and polo green on the right side...i had a polo green camaro also.
Your right the GTP does give me something to work with but I don't wanna go too crazy with it...3.2" steup is about the furthest i wanna go with it. Ya hydraulic on the clutch i believe.
Yeah, while the GTP is a good starting point, you don't want to invest thousands and thousands. You plan on getting a WS6 or Z28?

^ I used some sandpaper on mine as well. Didn't turn out too bad. Started to flake chrome off on one side tho. Need to go at them with steel wool or get the 40th anni tips that are at local muffler shop. If they are still there that is. They were on shelf in shop last time I was there.

Did you tint your tails ZR1?
I'm thinking you could use a coat of clear on them or something
They look awful... no offense
12-14-2010
The did look aweful. I had a lot planned with that, including retinting the tails because i did them in the dead of winter but unfortunately some ***** decided to ruin all my hopes and dreams. And the car is hella dirty in that pic.
12-14-2010
Those are nice lookin...what grit paper did you use? I'm assuming multiple grits.
12-14-2010
I went 400 (helps get all the built up stuff off), then 800, then 1500 then 2000, then some steel wool. Wasn't perfect, it needed more attention but again it was freezing when I was doing this.
12-14-2010
Hand sanding or did you use a block or?
12-15-2010
hand, the face of the tip is slightly curved so a block wouldn't work. Honestly, I fell in love with those tips once they were shined up, it'd be worth it on other cars. Even if you guys were to just buy the 04+ stock tips and weld/bolt them on.
12-15-2010
how much do the 04+ tips go for...i like mine..they just need polisehd....honestly if i buy new tips i'd want quad tips like the 40th anniversary cars.
