hoodilio Posted November 18, 2003 Report Posted November 18, 2003 Here are some pics of my little bro's new car, http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/robilepore/lst?.dir=/Camaro&.src=ph&.order=&.view=t&.done=http%3a//f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/. He got his liscence on saterday, and also got the car on saterday. Tell me wat u think, and also tell me how i could get my car up to par with his (my car ----->http://uhaweb.hartford.edu/mrusso/carpictures.htm) Quote
Redfox340 Posted November 18, 2003 Report Posted November 18, 2003 Tell me wat u think, and also tell me how i could get my car up to par with his... Good looking Camaro, but the way to keep with him is to either invest in displacement, juice (NOS) or a mild blown or boosted set-up. His and your car are on two seperate levels; what would you like to accomplish? - Erik Quote
99RegalGS Posted November 18, 2003 Report Posted November 18, 2003 Looks good. What year and model is it. I'm assuming it's not a very slow RS w/ the 2.8 Quote
hoodilio Posted November 18, 2003 Author Report Posted November 18, 2003 his has a 305v8, and mine is a 3100v6, a big displacement difference, hp might be close (his 175-190 and mine 160), but his has alot more torque then mine. I would love to do a 3800S/C swap into mine, but dont have the money or time, and i have just about all the aftermarket engine performance engine parts available for mine (becides internal engine stuff like a performance cam and stuff). So just for now i would like to visually get my up to par with his, he didnt get those rims in the picture. I want people to nitice my ride like they will notice his. My mom says my exhaust is still louder then his, so at least i got him on that. Quote
hoodilio Posted November 18, 2003 Author Report Posted November 18, 2003 the camaro is an 88 IROC-Z with a 305v8, i havnt seen it in person yet, i will over thanxgiving break though. Quote
99RegalGS Posted November 18, 2003 Report Posted November 18, 2003 I think the 88 305 is 170hp and 255lb. tq. If his was a year or two newer it would have the 305 TPI w/ 210hp and 285lb. tq. Quote
hoodilio Posted November 19, 2003 Author Report Posted November 19, 2003 my bro's taken the car to school tomorrow, lets all cross our fingers and pray that no one hits it. Quote
Big Blue Posted November 19, 2003 Report Posted November 19, 2003 That's a nice first car.Were you guys those rich kids at school that would get mommy and daddy to buy them everything. Quote
hoodilio Posted November 19, 2003 Author Report Posted November 19, 2003 nope, we both paid for our cars, all all the stuff we have done to them, and the insurence too (my insurence is 2400 a year and his is 3000 a year). I bust my balls every summer workin for a fence company to pay for my stuff. My car was around 4000 grand, system was 3000, and other mods add up to around 1000. His car was 4000, and he hasnt done anything becides maintence to it yet. I regret you asking if our parents pay for all our stuff Quote
hoodilio Posted November 27, 2003 Author Report Posted November 27, 2003 yo, so today i finally got to see his car, and took it for a little test drive. It isnt in mint condition, but its ok, but the torque...wow. Around corners if u punch it, oops fish tail. Its soo fun. It is really makeing me think that i should sell my 1993 Cutty 3100v6, and get something with a little more balls and rear wheel drive. Or a little euro car like a 5-speed Focus ZX3 or an SVT Focus if i can afford one in the next 3 years. I donno, i hate to turn my back on all u guys and the W-body cars, but my car is soo freekin slow its anoying. Quote
phantomFE3 Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 hmm dont get me wrong but the 305 TPI's came in camaros waaaay earlier than 88's. my gf has a '86 iroc with the 305 TPI Quote
luminator94 Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 Yeah, one of my buddies at work has an 87 Iroc with the 305 TPI. Aaron Quote
PJB Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 IROC= Mullet Car If you get a Focus theres a company that makes a kit to convert it to rwd and V8 power and keep it looking stock. Quote
conley3.1 Posted November 28, 2003 Report Posted November 28, 2003 Go with a rwd, not a focus... RWD is the most fun thing in the world. Well... not quite heh heh my mom has a 98 GMC truck, and it has a 350 with 260 hp and like, 350 lbs- of torque... power-induced oversteer and drifts! Quote
