yeah they really are, i could only imagaine how difficult they are to Germany when its tough to find a clean one here in america. Glad to here there is love for the fourth gen in other countries too.
I own a 98 FIREBIRD FORMULA LS1 its been sittin for 15 years outside in CANADA, just put a bunch of cash back into it fo get it rollin.Still love this beast,its a factory beast
Glad I'm not the only one that likes the interior of these cars. The ergonomics are nice. Everything is pointed towards the driver in true cockpit fashion. I miss these kinds of interiors.
yeah I'm a really big fan of interiors that are not over complicated. nice large buttons that are easy to push while driving don't need to take your eyes off the road. a/c and heat controls are very simple. And when people complain that it looks cheap, for me simple is better. the plastics are a little hard but they last which is what i like.
In Cali you can find those on used car lots well taken care of with the LS1 and 4L60E w/ 50K-70K miles for around $12K on average.WIth all the LS and 4L60E aftermarket it's not that much to replace engine and trans. Those cars weigh about 3,400lbs and with 325 horsepower you can keep up with almost anything on the road. Not much will easily pass you unless they have 500+ horsepower.
i like your cold air setup.. however, i do prefer the ram air hoods.. true that there are alot of aftermarket parts for them.. always something you're thinking about adding sometime in the future.. but yea great looking cars with great motors.. mine is a soft top and has a cpl like sub frame connectors wielded underneath the belly of it.. my guess is the hard or t tops don't come like that
Corrie Brown yeah the ram air hoods are a better set up, my car came with that intake on it already from the previous owner and I have subframe connectors on my car as well that I added they are a ton of fun to drive and build.
Hey man, good review & nice car, I have a 2002 SS convertible and It handles like crap. I have been told that the lower control arm bushings go bad causing this to happen but it also has 305 45 17 tires on it that wander all over the road. I know you arent happy with your tire size because of the diameter but I wouldnt go too fat in the front so you can avoid the issues I am having. Ill get those bushings replaced and see if it makes a difference in the handling, not for sure that is the whole problem though.
hey welcome to the F body Family dude I have the same car except with the automatic transmission but I have Bilstein shocks on the front and I'm looking for some really good cheap ones for the rear it will end or really damn well if you get Bilstein shocks all the way around and you forgot to mention since Mid Engine and it sits lower than the newer cars and it handles better on corners
Your camaro looks very clean literally and figuratively nice job man! But how much can I find a clean LS1 camaro (100,000 miles or less) in the tri-state area? and btw I just subbed and looking forward to your reviews!
+ILoveNewYork93 thanks man i try to take good care of the car. As far as price it really depends on how long you look. you can find them for around 10,000 dollars and under with between 50,000-100,000 miles.
dirt2595 you can get them from amazon. They are spyder headlights. I removed mine due to the fact that the seal around the edge of the lights sucked. I currently have the stock ones installed again.
I just don’t see n feel it In my opinion 4th gen Camaro’s were pretty ugly hey but that’s just my opinion enjoy your car I prefer my 1979 Trans Am n 2021 Camaro V6
depends on where in the us you are buying them and what condition they are in. my car looks like it just rolled off the show room floor and does not have nearly that many miles so i paid a higher price.
No I purchased it on summit racing.com unfortunately it's coming off the car and I'm selling it shortly due to clearance issues with the new subframe connectors I'm going to be running.
do you know ls1 specs,they were also in c5 vettes and they will endure 1000hp plus,now monsoon and vats just sucked lol,dude most gm cars of that time and before suffered from electrical problems. the stereos in those including mine suck.
