Cory, be safe, and have great young life..learning about financing your life before you get involved in sports car that could break your bank, and worse, hurt you physically, I was a kid once, and I know I would stand on it every chance I could get away with it..and that was driving my Mom's...

I agree, wait on your FSM, but one thing I had happen in my own experience was my connector at the MAF sensor was pretty corroded and green, so I disconnected the sensor..took the MAF off the air filter intake, cleaned the wires with maf sensor cleaner..while letting that air dry, I used a...

I am using 56 mm offsets on 17s all the way around, .and have had no issues..with rubbing..car could probably be lowered.. I had A-mold stagger w 11 in rears prior and they would just hit the interior liner, on very hard road surfaces if I caught an expansion strip just right..minimal rubbing...

I agree with all of your assessment, however, the one point that sticks in my head is..The All American Sports Car, and Europe will continue to throw its best at our beloved Corvette, forcing GM to counter with more and more quality, in a car that was originally intended as a convertible...

what's very interesting in your snap of the tach, is that the overlayed car is a C6, look at the front end and especially the tailights, clearly four round C6 circles in the graphic. so..this is a tease. as this is NOT the final form obviously, why would they use last years graphic in all that...

You Know, Boomdriver, this is why I need to come to Texas.. all the innovative thinking !!, , I appreciate your idea, and I will try your suggestion. I'll two-side tape the sucker in place, to give it a trial run..and see how that works before I drill it in.....and I will let you know how it...

Hello All, I am curious if there is a "glass pack" or other pre muffler, that is available to put in-line between cat and Y pipes, because I set up the car for my much younger brother, but now I have the car, back in my garage, as he decided he wanted a pick up truck, and I cannot stand the...

Hi all, I moved my 86 from Florida, a single plate state to Rhode Island, and here we are required to mount two plates. My 86 is black and has the corvette plate insert in place. I absolutely hate to pull it out and mount a plate there. black car with this white front plate, totally steals to...

Dark Red..thank you !...I am thinking, at this point, live with it. just wap the throttle when it comes on and ignore it..its almost a 28 year old car..but I have it polished like a diamond and it looks brand new, so the electrical gremlins bother the heck out of me..the interior, all the LED...

Thanks Guys... Does anyone have some insight into the Anti-rattle clips, I have seen them, made of flat spring steel for the front calipers, but I cannot find a source..anyone have these, and where I can get em, mine rattle so much that it makes me reflect on my old '69...Best, Doc

topTechx6...I would never have thought this myself, I was thinking it was another dash out of a manual car.. I found this text below. I learned something new..I completely agree with what you said above. so i was researching how to defeat the damn thing and came across this. .. Fuel capacity...

Gentlemen, Thank you both for the rapid response. I would now then suspect the 86 has been re-fit with a new dash cluster, for a manual car. everything below the car seems to indeed have the same patina of wear, it does not appear to have been retrofitted with an automatic, vs. a standard, so...

Hello to Everyone, Glad to be on this forum.. I have two C4's a 1994 DRM Coupe and a 1986 Black Coupe. My questions concern the 1986. a. Are there Anti Rattle clips, available for this year's Brake Caliper to isolate it from the Rotor? b. the Previous owner put in an aftermarket...
