Two things I have decided on... Kinda.

Wheels and LS6 intake are my plans for the car within the next 6 months. I really like how C5 Z06 wheels look on Fbodys so I think I am going to wait and see if I can find a good deal on some, however, I also like ZR1s so I am somewhat torn. I also want an LS6 intake and I bet if I watch tech enough I can find one for 250ish. I really wanna get the car cleaned up real good and slap some nice wheels and rubber on it then top it off with an LS6 intake and maybe a few suspension mods like LCAs and Panhardrod bar. Im in no hurry to do this, but I think that is good as I can wait for some good deals to filter their way through. Im also leaning towards a new exhaust, or at LEAST new tips. Ive put a lot of miles on the car in the past month and she has treated me wonderful so I figure its time to reward her with some new goodies in the near future.

Well I'm currently trying to unload some new chrome ZR1 wheels if you are interested and I'm in Fairfax also so it would save you shipping! Don't worry, the $850 doesn't stand if you look at them in the classifieds.. i realize it was a bit much after listed.

Ive got my original chrome ZR1's im trying to sell but they all have dings in them from running over a curb. Im sure they're repairable and the tires may be good too. You've got my number if you wanna look at them sometime.

LS6 intake...watch craigslist daily...great deals come up there.

Zr1's or C5Z's? I've had both...sold the 18x9.5 c5z and now run the 17x9.5 zr1's. The c5z's are sick if you can find 19's...but they only look good with 18's or 19's. 17's are definitely zr1's all the way and are lighter. I painted mine graphite metallic.

Dude Brian Zr1's man. No doubt. I'm all for the LS6 intake, for sure. Have you considered cam/heads? I know it's your daily driver but man that would be bad to the bone. There is a GREAT F-bod performance place in Moore than does just excellent work. When are you heading back again? Also let's chill again August 6th, if not before then too. 39th on August 7th?

ANOTHER 4th gen with z06 wheels.

Everytime I go to a car meet with my car, the more I like my wheel choice.

I agree about the c5z's they don't look good in 17"s. Zr1's are common as well but they do always give a clean look esp. if the car is lowered. For exhaust tips some 4" corsa clones look sweet on T/A's.
