Same body style as the Z06 just with 50 less HP. If you are going to mod it, there is no point in spending $20K+ on a Z06 with high mileage when you can buy a mid-low mileage FRC for $17K+. The only MAIN difference is the 50HP and the gearing. > > **With the few grand you save when you buy the FRC, you can put that in the engine and for the same price as a high mileage Z06, have a low-mid mileage FRC with mods that will be just as fast if not faster than the Z06 for cheaper.** this was my thought exactly, having a Z would be awesome, but i already have plans for mods to the car, they will come slowly but nonetheless i plan on doing werk! If im not mistaken a Z51 car has the same suspension as a Z06, so why not spend like you say 17 or so on a decent mileage car because the 50hp down the road rly wont matter with my plans for the car. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/c5-lsx-guys-i-need-some-help/249926)._
