Figured what the hell. I'd sign up at IMPORTatlanta and throw up a few pics of my non-import for the hell of it :doh:

Its bone stock, so nothing too special.

The plan is to get my driving skills up to par before adding any more power than I need :)

I'm honestly new to the car scene around here, so I guess I'm trying to get my feet wet.

I dont plan to S/C this thing though, gonna keep it N/A.

Intake, Cam, valve/spring job, headers, exhaust etc should help me hit 550 at the wheels or so. I'll be happy with that (along with a wicked exhaust note).

Wait, thats right, I'm not planning any mods! :lol:

My older bro has a bone stock 06 Z06 and that baby hauls ass! He feels the same way with wanting to get fully use to the power before modding it. That is how you keep your car in good shape/1 piece, and save your life.

Be safe, and watch out, we got pulled over doing 84 in a 35 the other night and the cop's remarks were "That is the fastest I have ever pullled anyone over on this road." hahaha

I meant that in social terms, but you do make a good point. That's exactly why I didnt want a viper. I like the electronics, especially when its raining.

Thanks for the comments folks. I hope to meet some of you guys on Thursday.

Well that looks like a load of fun. Welcome to the car scene then :). you should come to the Varsity sometime. First Thursday of very month downtown Atlanta varsity. Or the Riverside Sonic meets up near you in Duluth EVERY thursday. Just don't show up and be an a$ because your car costs so much more that most there and is probably faster. Welcome!

Hey man,

Actually we talked about your car at the Varsity. You even gave my buddy your friend's number - about an 87/88 RX7 for sale.

That's a pretty nice car you have there!

I'm gonna try to be there Thursday. I will make it most probably.

Whats so funny about that? Thats some damn good power with just intake cam and exhaust on stock heads so i dont know what youre laughing about. That setup would beat almost all the cars on here on the hwy. What do mach 1's make with intake cam and exhaust?

EDIT: Also that car is 505hp at the crank. With just intake cam and exhaust it would make 550whp untuned and if you dont think thats good power for those mods your stupid and crazy.

The only joke here is the car in your sig.

Seriously though, don't laugh at a 550rwhp C6Z when you have a 300rwhp Mach1.

I see his point, but my numbers are probably wrong. I think it'd be more like 600/520 with the mods I listed. I was just throwing out numbers, I haven't done my homework yet.

Whos cares if its "only" making 550 if it can sound like this:

Throttle response aint bad for a 7.0 liter either!

That first video is a pretty radical cam- I bet you'd net more than 550rwhp with the other mods you mentioned.

either way nice car.

Would you pay 70k for an M3?

You can't compare the two cars, that's like saying I would buy an F430 over the Z06. :???:

Say what you think, and dont worry about it.

I thought the M3 was pretty nice - but the S54's first year nightmares for the customers kinda drove me away.

I am the OP and I approve this message.

Ram you got a hell of a car to play with, there will be ppl who'll say oh it's just a Vette and then it's a dream car for others. Man it doesn't matter if you make 500 or 800whp...as long as you enjoy it....that's all that matters.

$70k for a M3? Maybe a fully loaded convertible and in that case no.

MSRP, No.

PS. Notice where the person I was replying to mentioned 70k, it wasn't my original figure...I just ran with it.

I doubt the number will go over 64k driveout, even loaded. The "market sob story" should cover you for a nice drop! This is for the sedan/coupe. The vert isnt out yet.

Why would you give up the CF hood for a vert anyway?

Actually I went and looked Hydro is right. Loaded the car is $68k. And the verts are out went and looked at one a few weeks ago.

08-12-2008, 02:47 PM
So the verts are out eh? Thats right, its been a year - damn! Figured you could get a 4k discount so I said 64k.

I saw one in a parking lot, but I'd love to hear one scream!

Some people love them and some Hate them mostlikely every bodys been trying to beat the new z06.the Ford Gt,Viper,Gt 500,997 turbo,Lambos, even the new Gtr was said to be a "Corvette killer" like the previos stated cars like in Magz."The New ---- was tested and specs say the new --- will out perform the Z06 :blah: :blah: :blah: " Im not saying it cant be beat but all of these Manufactors are saying that they can beat the z06 even before they race it I mean if you can beat it congrats:cheers: but if you cant then why all the rakus....

Beautiful car...the place that you need to go to and get motor work done is Vengeance Racing. All they do is custom work on LS and LT motors. Ron is the guy you need to speak with. He will sit down with you and suggest what you will need to get the max performance out of it and keep it reliable. I have a Trailblazer SS with the LS2 in it and am waiting to put an STS Remote turbo system on it which should bring it to about 525hp at the crank and about 435 at the wheels. You can check out there website and see one of the C6Z06's that they have done (Its in the Gallery part of their website). Also on there is Ron TBSS. Let me know what you think.
