Looking for a set for my '04 coupe. I've heard the after market imitations are prone to failure. I don't really want to pay the dealer a premium for a set. Any idea what a good OEM set will set for, and/or if they will fit a C5 without wheel well mods/issues? Thanks guys. :w

Hi guys and gals. Got a question here concerning a friend's Z06. I have a coupe so I wasn't able to answer it for him. Apparently his Z was broken into this week, and the cops watched the suspect and then arrested the guy when he broke in. Anyway, no damage done to the Z, but the crook...

Hey guys, once again the topic of tires comes up, but I didn't find quite what I was looking for with searches. I have an '04 coupe I just passed 16,xxx miles with and I'm already seeing significant treadwear and the stock Goodyears are getting to be quite loud. My question is, what kind of...

Alright, I don't sell this stuff, even though this is about to sound like a sales pitch! (Hey, word of mouth is the best advertising!) Alright, so I've been detail cars since I was 16 (That's 13 years now... man I'm getting old) and I've tried just about every product on the market. Well a...

Posted this in the C5 room, but thought you guys might be the experts. Anyone know off hand what the bare wheel weight (no tires, with pressure sensors) difference is between stock polished Z06 wheels (such as on the '04 Z16) and stock polished 5 spoke wheels? Along the same line, I'm looking...

Anyone know off hand what the bare wheel weight (no tires, with pressure sensors) difference is between stock polished Z06 wheels (such as on the '04 Z16) and stock polished 5 spoke wheels? Along the same line, I'm looking at buying some Z06 styled wheels from this place...

I came across this subtle body kit for the C5 at madvett.com. I have a 2004 Lemans Commemorative Edition Coupe that is my daily driver. I am looking for something subtle that will cause the casual observer to realize there is something different about the car but not certain what it is unless...

With the vast number of gearheads here at the CAC, I am hoping at least one of you happens to be mechanical engineer, possibly with knowledge in thermal dynamics and heat transfer abilities of various fluids. I know, I'm looking for quite a specialized engineer at this point :eyerole, but I am...

Ok, after last night I can say with absolute positivity that Corvette=average Joe's super car!!! I over at a friend's Halloween party. We all usually get together every Saturday night, and seeing that I am one of only 2 non-drinker's, when something runs out, I'm the one that runs to the...

Guys and gals, I am trying to connect an XM radio FM modulator that is a hard wired system in my car. I was going to utilze the same wiring set up as many have used for their V1s, HOWEVER, there seems to be a bit of a problem, that is a lack of the prewired outlet under the passenger side toe...

I'm ready to start tinkering with some aftermarket performance goodies on my '04 6-speed coupe. I've decided on a ZO6 cat-back exhaust, simply because this is a daily driver and I love how the ZO6 sounds, but I am not impressed with any after market systems sound, or $ per HP gain... crazy...

I found what I believe to be a pretty good deal on a ZO6 cat-back system, however before I commit, I wanted to hear from anyone else who has installed a ZO6 cat-back exhaust onto a stock coupe exhaust. Are there any issues I need to look out for? Modifications to either system before they will...

So I've now had my C5 for a little less than 2 months, have put about 3200 miles on, and I am starting to push the car and feel out the limits. Just about every day now it seems to amaze me in another way! This morning, however, didn't just amaze me, it blew me away and put a huge grin on my...

Ok, after almost a month of beautiful weather I woke up this morning to rain falling. Not very nice of the weatherman, now I have to wash the underside of my new car.:mad Anyhow, I can now firmly vouch for the ABS, traction control, and active handling working on my car! And that was just at the...

When I bought my '04 coupe, the dealer stated GM quit making and sending the videos out early in '04. All I got was an audio CD that covers extreme basics only. Does anyone have the actual '04 video/DVD? Thanks.

After about 2 weeks, I now have a little over 1500 miles on my new '04. I spent the first 500 miles babying everything, the drive train, brakes, suspension, etc. Around 800 miles I started "pushing" the car a bit, flexing it's muscles by bringing RPM to about 2000 before shifting during normal...

Ok, so I am already getting accustomed to my new C5 and know what to expect when opening up the all the LS1 can eat buffet under my right foot. Although it is markedly fast and I love it, it just isn't "brutal" enough... i.e., I have yet to leave a permanent impression in my seat back from...
