lol guess I’ll have to start a thread polling opinions as to whether to paint the car or not. I am going to try and swap this hood for a stocker that fits better though. Scanned the codes this morning has a code for a bad 02 and then fuel trim. I’m sure the first is causing the second and I can tell the thing is running rich. Busy this weekend, gonna trade pipes with John tomorrow, I’ll change the 02s while I’m under there and go from there with the car next week when I have some time. ---

Holy shit someone finally bought it! Was waiting for someone to snatch up a solid 12sec car for cheap. That was a fun ass car ---

changed the 02 today and put about 30 miles on the car. So far no SES light. Trans was about a quart low, filled it up and haven’t really noticed much difference. Car seems to run a little better. When I was on the northway I was cruising about 75 and manually shifted it between drive and overdrive two or three times without any issue. So I’m leaning toward the mailorder tune being part of the problem. I’m going to change the engine and transmission filters and oil next week once I have some time. Hopefully the issue is resolved with just the 02. Paul where is the 3 to 4 upshift suppose to be 6k? Either way I’m not going to be driving the car all that hard till I fix the lazy center issue. Had her on a lift yesterday, seems like the car might need a wheel bearing. Plaf had all new ball joints and tierods that I’ll install some time in the next couple weeks. ---

If the car gets nitrous it won’t be till late this summer. I’m graduating in May and have an camaro thats been in the work for a couple years that is close to being done. So I’m going to focus on that. Either way more power isn’t any good if the car won’t shift into 4th on the quarter. Anyway I’m happy for the purchase price can’t beat it for what the price was negociated to. ---

This May I’d like to get HP tuners software and start playing with the car a little bit. It doesn’t have too much done to it. Headers, exhaust, intake, lid, injectors, converter, trans mods?? So I’m going to try playing with it myself a little bit. I’ve done stuff with DSM link before so I think I’ll be able to manage it. Plus I don’t want to pay 250 everytime I change something on the car, rather pay once and be set. ---

There isn’t a Y pipe on the car, I was rushed today at work and didn’t have time to take pictures of the exhaust. Either way too much interior noise for my liking. Oh and 6spd EG I happen to have a nitrous kit floating around and yes LS1s do love spray. Already thinking about that. Gotta get her running right first. I have another camaro that should be finished in a few months that will be much faster then this one so the 00 might wind up detuned and more of a driver. Only time will tell, don’t think I’ll really make it slower though. I will straight up trade you a Pacesetter off road Y pipe for those duals… let me know. ---

I swapped pipes with John yesterday afternoon. Just currious what size inlet is your y pipe? The one John swapped me is 3" inlet, but the headers on the car are 2.5". I’m going to make adapter at work, but I would be interested in the Y if it’s 2.5 inlet with 3" outlet. ---

ya sorry paul your ezpass is still in my truck just like it was yesterday. Started shooting the shit with John and totally forgot about it. Guess I’ll have to mail it to you. Looks like Johns stuff should bolt up to the car, the pipes were 2.5" but it looks like the headers are 3". I’ll find out tomorrow morning. ---

They’re 3" also so the pipes I got from you should bolt up just fine as long as the factory hangers are still there. ---
