    GM tightens up usage of SS label

    Given that they actually put "SS" on a chevette in the early 80's, I think this is looonnnnggggg overdue. - Eric:w

    Need Tire Opinions

    Well the Bridgestone Pole Positions just got the ultimate endorsement, my wife's! She hated driving the vette because of the harshness and excessive road noise from the run-flats. She drove it yesterday and lets just say I think I've created a monster.:eek

    Shop fire - car is toast

    Jeff, That's a major bummer about the car but you'll get it back to the way it should be. Great that no one was hurt and that the firefighters were able to keep it from destroying everything! - Eric

    Need Tire Opinions

    I just installed Bridgestone Pole Positions (non run-flat) on my 98. WOW!! It's been raining here last couple days but I haven't slipped once on take off or turning. My GYs always caused me to act very cautiously in the rain. Also, when dry the new tires don't break traction when I floor it...

    Looks Like Everyone Wants A Z06...

    Oh, don't get me wrong, I am in no way suprised the Vette is on top, just that the Viper is so un-sought after;LOL. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that they've been selling them for over 10 years now and you never see them being driven for me than an occasional weekend cruise...

    Factory-5 Dumps Mustang for C5 In Latest Kit

    From Kit Car magazine - click link for pics: If you're a car guy, then chances are good that at one time or another you've leaned back on your stool in your garage, in your chair at work, or on the family sofa in the living room and dreamt up some kind of supercar. More often than not, a...

    Vettes Drag Racing in the Middle East - I Never Knew

    ROFLMAO! I had some bad juju last night so I was awake and feeling like crap. So, I started searching the web for Vette-related news stories. When I found that one it intrigued me. I read a couple other articles and it all has a very western feel to it. No wonder since that's one of our...

    Looks Like Everyone Wants A Z06...

    ... instead of a Viper or a Shelby. When I took this poll the C6 Z06 was at 60% but then we all knew that would be the case, right;). Cast your vote and drive home the obvious fact. I'm actually a little suprised the Viper is not only so low in the voting, bit it's dead last. I mean I figured...

    The Book: All Corvettes Are Red

    Good book! I have two copies, one I read and the other a leather-bound edition that is among my Corvette collectibles. BTW, I moved this thread out of The Edge to the C5 General Discussion forum.

    New Corsa Sports - Odd Sound

    Do you "feel" it or just hear it? If you feel it, it may be resonance which isn't characteristic of Corsa on any car. But resonance and/or the noise you here could very easily be an exhaust leak. Did you recheck the torque on the clamps after you drove it a while? With pipes shifting and...

    Thinking about selling my Camaro SS for a C5

    I don't think Z51 was limited to FRC cars though, I think it was in coupes too. Mine isn't though so I'm not positive.

    Thinking about selling my Camaro SS for a C5

    I'm sure we have some folks in Fla that would let you take one for a spin. Maybe try posting a thread just for that request; someone will chime in with an offer. If you were in my area, I'd let you. Here's the TSB on oil consumption. Do a search on oil consumption and you'll find plenty of...

    Thinking about selling my Camaro SS for a C5

    And as for a non-HUD car, there's a guy that sells a kit to convert 99+ cars that even has instruction on a DVD. It's not too expensive (about 400 for most, 750 if the car is a 97-99 that needs a HUD cluster) and takes an afternoon as I've heard from those who have done it. He sells them on...

    Am I a lead foot?

    One more thing Sharon, when you buy this stuff, get the one for a 20 gallon tank, not a 12 gallon tank. If you can't find the 20, then just don't fill the car up all of the way. It may take several treatments if you're really crudded up. And as a bonus, if you every get the fuel gauge glich...

    Am I a lead foot?

    Sharon, Mine is an A4 with the performance rear axle and mine seemed to take longer than it should when I dropped from say 50 mph and it forced it from 4th to 2nd. It seemed to take a little bit for that HUGE surge to hit but it was a lot faster from 20 or so dropping to 1st. The car was not...
