I have done this a few times. It snaps on and off. It is tough, but it does come out.

vee93 mentions something interesting... I'm not sure if others noticed this "feature" or maybe a flaw in the ASR... but i have found that is does not engage when i have fish tail action or find my vette sliding on a turn. I dont drive crazy... and I can always control it... but does the ASR ONLY...

I keep it on all the time. Only time it comes off is when i feel like doing donuts in the parking lot or squealing the tires alittle, or at a red light with someone next to me i think might want to go... ie "special" occasions. Tuna's #2 and #3. Otherwise, it is VERY usefull in the rain. I've...

Thanks for all the suggestions. It turned out to be the Opti-spark. Total cost was ~$900.... but thanks to my warrantly, i only had to pay $50 (the deductible). :D Its running sweet now. John

While driving home (of course at 1am on saturday night) I got whithin a block of my apt and my vette just died. There was popping and banging from the exhaust as I tried to accerate. I initially thought i was out of gas, but I had 3 bars left. I walked home and got up VERY early today walked to...

Air bags When was the passenger side air bag first in the C4? That might be something to consider.

Less than a month ago, some a-hole scraped my driver side door. The door is not dented, but scratched pretty badly. I have the damages worked out by his insurance comp. But, ever since i have been having big problems with the door lock. It keeps trying to unlock itself, generally starts after a...

I hate it when you have the morning dew mix with the pollen. You get a green slime that smears as you drive arround.

This may be it. Or very close to the problem. I drove arround alittle today, its intermitten but evident when i hit a bump. I did act up when i opened that little compartment in the door and kind of bumped that area alittle. I also have to really slam the door to engage the passive door locks...

I was considering an upgrade in braking systems. I'm looking for pros/con, experiences, with Baer, Brembro, Z06 brakes, or anything else you guys might have. Thanks, John

I currently make MUCH less than you. And that is my only car. I got the Corvette about 1.5 years ago when i was sitting pretty making $40K. Now, i'm looking for a part time job in addition to my full time 9-5 job. I have cut back on much on my spending, bars, food, movies, etc... Owning a...

Thanks guys. After the "estimate", i'll see what i can do with my orbital polisher and touch-up paint. There is no dent, just scrapes. Certainly worth an afternoon to try myself. But any ideas about why the door lock was going crazy. I'll going out now, and i'll see what happens. John

kingman... sorry for the confusion. I am 100% agreeing with you, just to clearify. I AM ONLY GETTING THE ESTIMATE AT MACCO. I would NEVER, EVER get my corvette painted at Macco in a 1 million years. The douche before me did and it looks terrible. Its only the close and major paint place that...

Door keep unlocking I really can't believe my bad luck. I go to my friends' party last night, and some a-hole that was there, while leaving, scraped my driver door, below the trim thing (which is also damaged). This girl calls out, "John, someone hit your car". The horn was beeping. A few...

The LT4s are a huge bargain. Got mine for $18,500 with ~57K miles. John

If i knew it would have come out this great, i would have bought this a year ago. I spent $100 for a detail shop to do what i did in a couple hours. Its not "as" good as theres was, but it looks great for the effort that i put. I expect the "next" time I wax the vette for it to come out even...

All waxed up and lookin' good :cool

I just wanted to say how happy i am at the results of my first attempt using my new orbital buffer/polisher. Unfortunately, the pic i attached doesn't do the results justice. I went to Sears about a month or so ago, picked up the Craftsman 6-in buffer/polisher for $30 and got a bunch of pads...

I was wonder what others experiences were with new paint jobs. The previous owner of my vette got a cheap macco job done just before he sold it to me to cover the "scratches". Knuckle head. And in my zest to buy one, i accepted it, the price and condition were right, and i have been driving it...

I drive my vette year round, sadly in all weather. Its only a car. The only real problem is in the rainy conditions is with handling and acceration. Both are drastically reduced! You become much more hesitant. Its alittle more work, watching for hydroplaning, water filled pot holes, and patches...
