Pauly's 2001 Red Corvette Z06 Thread

link motherfucker, i need it. I want a GT so bad… would sell house.

Carvaggio rear wing and mud flaps…

very nice, cam, headers, tune!

thanks jammer!

haha i know! i already cleaned the brake fluid reservoir, i have no clue how it got so dirty. Oil is changed. and i planned on doing plugs and wires and trans and rear end oil. but how come change clutch fluid??

nah, enzyte…

Im hoping for about a 115 trap speed out of it. Anyone know (pending i get a good hook and run out of it) about what it would do in the quarter?

prolly mid 12s

Gotta get it on the road first!! But that is the plan, a nice moderate cam, kooks headers and catless xpipe. Then a tune. Ive been thinking, however, just to do headers and xpipe, my problem is for the money it will cost say:

  1. $1000+ for headers
  2. $600+ for xpipe
  3. $500+ for cam and springs
  4. $450 for the tune (about)

Is all that money and labor really worth the extra, what, 35-40 wheel horse? Im still debating over it. Either way, i wont be doing any of that until the end of this season anyways. I just want to tint the windows and drive it this summer.

thats what i was thinking but i wasnt sure. I feel like thats a respectable number for what it is.

cant you get a blower for like 4-6k that will do 500whp ish?

i kind of like those jammer. Im not a fan of those type accessories on these rides normally, but i kind of like the ones in that pic.

THATS exactly what i was thinking about. In a few years when this cars paid off. I can buy a Procharger kit run 6-8lbs of boost and make about 580-600 whp. The P1-SC kit is $6400. Includes absolutely everything, injectors, brackets, fuel pump, belt, head unit, even a plug in tuner for the setup.

With that HP and a good clutch i could probably tap into the high 10’s

Pauly there is a multiquote function. USE IT! Lol

^^ haha sorry, i only use it half the time.

Just for shits and giggles i went on compnine.com to run my vin and this is what it came back as

There are 2 2001 CORVETTE NOTCHBACK vehicles (0.035%) matching your exact options list. There are 7 (0.121%) with at least as many options.

I also just looked at the title, weight is 3042 brett, i was wrong before.

This thing should go pretty good. When you putting it on the road?

So unlike Emuscles and TurbzTrav your actually gonna drive your z06

probably next week, but ill only drive it on days like today until we get one or two really big rain storms to wash the roads.

and yes def, im gonna DD this bitch lol. Only days i wont drive it is raining or work days, then ill give the truck a work out.

The clutch fluid gets wrecked in these cars quick, go take a look at yours, it’s prolly very black…

Go on www.corvetteforum.com c5 section/ parts for sale and you can buy alot of if not all of the things you want for a fraction of the price, and most the guys on there are good to deal with. fwiw

i forwarned em about that and all the other little quirks they devolop already

Awesome!!! It looks nice man. If the weather holds out next weekend we should meet up. You can show me yours, i’ll show you mine. :wink:

But seriously, you were quoted WAY high on the headers and xpipe. They have amazing deals on CorvetteForum.com I just saw a deal for LT headers and catless xpipe (w/ cats or w/o) for $700. Brand new.

You can pick up a good cam for $300. Shop around and you will find good deals.
