Got a new car to add to my fleet... Camaro Z28

Post your pics of your non-Bonneville, and If you have video footage, we want to see it. Videos must be hosted on external web space and hotlinked to PontiacBonnevilleClub.com. Also discuss mechanical problems regarding your non-bonneville (this is not another lounge, but posts don't count, random car vids not of your cars should be in the lounge)

Got a new car to add to my fleet... Camaro Z28

Post by VBCSpangler »

I'm finally putting up pics of my new 97 Camaro Z28, 6 speed manual. I picked it up with 66,000 miles on it for $5000. I've started doing some bolt-ons; so far I have the K&N fender-well intake, custom y-pipe back exhaust (3 inch single into magnaflow dual outlets). I also picked up a hypertech programmer as well. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good camaro forum?
I still have my Bonneville, don't worry guys I'm not leaving!

I've been a member on there since I was a 12 y/o obsessed with getting a camaro, lol.

Looks like a great car!! Gotta love the T-56 behind the LT1. Might need a new clutch after a few smoky burnouts, though!! :wink:

Yea, it does need a new clutch. This one works fine for driving around, but if I launch it hard it either burns out or the clutch slips.

I've already had fun just replacing the spark plugs. Hardest car EVER for that job, even worse than the rear bank on the GM 3.1L V6!
