The ULTIMATE 3rd gen Camaro! 1986 "Storm Trooper" IROC-Z 

Glad you liked it! I'll be sure to get a follow up video with Rob after he finishes with the 2 67mm turbos he has mocked up on his other car. Hopefuilly I can catch him at some autocross drag events next summer too!

Thanks! That means the world to hear. I'll be sure to bug Rob for a follow up next year when he has the twin turbo set up all sorted!

I agree!

Don’t like the single exhaust on the back , this beast needs dual outlets

Glad you enjoyed it!

I think most of us have a car we regret selling. I'll be following up with Rob once he finishes the twin Turbo set up this winter if you havent already subscribed. Cheers

It is a fantastic car. I'll be doing a follow up video next year when Rob is done fitting the two 67mm turbos he has mocked up on his 88!

And money

That parking lot was extra rough, once out of there its was definitely on the stiffer side but not at all unbearable. Excited to see how it does at autocross next summer

Yeah, my thirdgen is somewhat harsh on almost stock springs, I was gonna say it looks like the suspension would shake your fillings loose. Think I actually did have this as a screensaver at one point. Definitely a nice car.

Couldn't agree more!

That's awesome. I'm based in Moncton and will be doing a follow up video after Rob turbo charges his Camaro. If you haven't already, I'd love if you subscribed to keep up to speed on the car.

100% agree. The stock IROC-Z decals sets off the look of those - as do the wheels. I remember back in the day, that those 16s" looked so big since most fullsize cars were running narrow 15s". That said, they make replica iroc-z wheels in 18". I think that could be a good compromise.

Rob built another for a friend that's all black. They did the car show circuit in 2023 as Vader next to the storm Trooper haha. The link to his socials is in the video description.

@@gearheadsyndrome oh that's awesome thanks

No problem. If you haven't already, I'd love if you subscribed. Going to do a follow up video on Rob's Camaro when the twin turbos are installed.

I linked Rob's socials in the video description. I'm hoping to see him at speedsport 2024. Maybe get some more footage of his car on display

Robs socials are in the description if you have any questions. Thanks for watching. If you want to subscribe I'm doing a follow up video this coming spring after he turbo charges it.

I haven't. Curious to see what that one is like. That's a whole new level of work to interior swap a car!

@@gearheadsyndrome it's on here just put custom interior in Camaros it'll pop up it's white and blue it looks sick

Rest assured I'll be following up on Robs Camaro next spring when he is hopefully done fitting both 67mm turbos he has mocked up on his 88.

That parking lot was pretty bad, and it's built for track/performance use so its really stiff. There is no compliance in the chassis for pot holes with the chassis rails, massive strut braces, and roll cage.

I asked Rob. He got them from Iroc motorsports: the Recaro 6le

The twin 67mm snails are already mocked up on his 88. At this point boost is inevitable haha

It's a VERY stiff chassis with the set up intended for back roads/autocross.

even a stock iroc rode firm,this will ride firmer had an 87 5.7 tpi,it was a blast have an 86 t/a now

That's unfortunate, because this isn't your typical stance, parking lot princess set up. From what I remember its a new system designed for performance. Rob spent the summer tuning it for autocross and track days.

@@gearheadsyndrome bags are for groceries.

That's one man's opinion. Ther have been air suspension set ups in race cars for decades. To each their own. But thank you for notifying everyone about when you stopped caring. We were all so interested.

The 2nd generation had a few major looks with the face-lifts it had but the chassis/roofline were all common from 1970-1981

Yeah I agree, I'm trying to by a black 87 iroc, it's all completely original and only has about 10k miles on it. Its a convertible and the guy bought it for his wife brand new and he said she just hardly ever drove it. Only problem is he wants 30k for it. I offered him 20k but he wouldn't take it, and I haven't got him to budge on his 30k asking price. He said since 1990 it's only been driven a few hundred miles or less a year, and said that was mostly just trying to keep it maintained.

​@GT-43 got a 88 iroc z 350 all black w/ t tops for 10k if interested 140k miles

All irocs look better with 295 rear tires though.

Give me his phone number, I will buy it tomorrow………

I would normally agree but this car is sweet!
