I'm an analyst at my company and part of my job is gathering information on the key indicators of the economy, as it affects my company's current and future actions and financil results. There certainly are positive signs of the economy picking up, especially in the automotive market. 3rd...

For the track, the important thing is that manual transmission. The Automatic with its limited shifter control just won't cut it. The 6-speed would be ideal. You can easily mod the L98 to put out respectable power up to its redline. You won't gain any RPM's but with a freer flowing intake...

Why not just spend $2k-$3.5k to put a higher performance suspension system and braking system on your C4 and then take it to the track? Must you have a track car in addition to your current C4? If you just want to have fun there, you don't need to beat the crap out of it, just drive it to YOUR...

I don't believe there is an adaptor specifically for the Delco/GM Bose system as this stereo was Pre-MP3 or any other similar type of source. There is a universal adaptor that allows you to "tap" into your antena's wiring so you can "tune" into a specific radio station (one that isn't being...

I looked into this last year for my C4. There is (was) a company that offered a Vortech Supercharger kit for the C4 with their proprietary "Gaseus Intercooler", which is basically a water injection system to cool the intake charge. Do multiple search on the internet for C4 mods and you will...

Do you already have all these parts or you are still planning on getting them. I seriously considered doing a similar build to my C4 and collected a bunch of information. Here is what I found and you may end up finding this useful as you go through with your build. Mod Advice for L98 and...

When I was a young man and newly married, around your age, I made the mistake of having two car payments because I so wanted the vehicles. Well it nearly killed my finances. I didn't think about the other costs of car ownership such as maintenance, insurance, registration, etc. Now that I am...

Kumho on a Corvette? :D Just joking....I just like to have the purity of putting American brand tires on a purely American icon. It's kind of like buying an American Flag and seeing the "Made In China" label! Believe it or not, that happened in WalMart! Damn Walmart! But yeah, a lot of...

You may want to add or revise the following: On a car that is 10+ years old or depending on condition, replace all coolant hoses. 300 degrees....oh yeah that's bad. If it doesn't start cooling down in traffic when the cooling fan comes on at 230 degrees, it's time to stop and check. I'm...

This sounds like it needs to stay private. No sense in making it public for everyone to see. Happy 4th. Hope you resolve this.

I understand your feelings about the Corsa. It's a very high quality product that looks great. But it is not designed to be loud at all unless you are at WOT. Whenever I go to Cars and Coffee and see all those bad-ass cars, most of them have really loud exhaust. A favorite thing to do is...

Yeah. I live in the Pacific Hills area and there are two mid to late '80's C4's here, one is a black convertible with bright chrome ZR1 wheels, bald guy driving it, and another all silver coupe that both look very clean. Daily driven too from what noticed. I've seen a few more driving around...

Whalepirot, the car already looks great. That rear looks awesome. I too can't wait to see the car finished. So sorry about your experience with Prestige Auto....I will make sure to stay the hell away from those dudes. I've had good luck with Caliber Collission....all my cars that have...

Hang in there GMJunkie. Your mother appreciates you being with her right now. Going through the same thing with my beloved Mother--Lukemia. It hurts, I know. Take it one day at a time.

I went through two different exhaust systems for my C4. The factory exhaust is the quietest and has zero resonance because it only has ONE working tip per side. This is THE secret to no resonance on a C4. I also used the y-pipe with a center connector on aftermarket mufflers....no difference...
