I'd never seen the car before today...and im sure there are others that havent as well...its ugly as sin theres not much more I can say about it...having it on a TV show means nothing really other than a national audience got a good laugh as well :shrug:
i didn't think it was so bad. i think the clear turning signals looked real nice. the window tints and body kit don't look so good, but the color scheme is nice. i wouldn't say its the worst f-body ever.

The Stripped tires(cant remember the name used) those are hott...i need me a set for the gtp yo. The red tint even on the front window? Thats hott too right?

they're called... get ready... "red line tires". they came as standard equipment on some first gen camaros. she is magically drawn to anything red. if they sold crap in a red can, she would buy it just because of the can.
there is always someone who has yet to see her car. and there is always someone in the crowd that will post it up. in the 5 or so years i've been around websites having to do with f-bodies, i think i've seen it posted up no less than ten times (once every six months or so). TGO is notorious for having it posted up in the appearance area, as some n00B finds it and posts it up, usually with a similar title to "jacked up firebird" or "ugliest car evah". then the redraif supporters come out of the woodwork to defend her honor. then someone tells her that so-and-so over on such-and-such board is trashing her car and she shows up a couple of weeks later to tell you how beautiful her car is. she can justify everything she's done to the car and the fact that she's an innovater, not a car builder or mechanic (shows, doesn't it?). she'll be here shortly, i am sure. hang on for a wild ride.

More like 4. Theres 3 on the back alone. Theres one upside down under the back bumper. She also used to have one upside down under the front bumper. Either the pics are old since its not on, or she took it off. Actually, looking at the wallpaper pics on the car domain page, you can see it on.
She had a bumch of enforcers on TGO. "LT1 guy" (her b/f) would always attack any negative opinion someone had. "Crazyhawiian" and "Revlimit" were her pals too. It was atually funny to see the whole appearance board flame war each other.

Yeah, the oh so popular Scorcher TA's. They have little bands of colored tread. I thought they had discontinued them because they were so unpopular. The tire was designed to attract the sport compact people who would want to have tires match the color of the car.....

at first glance, it's not too bad. then you start to notice little things, like the stacked spoilers, and the spoiler under the bumper, etc. etc. and you begin to wonder "What in the hell did she do?" all in all, it adds up to a slow, and stupid-looking car.

Car is not running what it should... even on drag radials the car si spinning off the line... we ahve been thru all the idiot driver theroies and that is not it... hte car is very lowered and has a non posi rear. So one of my next mods are coilovers up front so i can change spring rates up from for darg days and a spohn torque arm so i can fix my angles! Figure that will make tons of difference!
What I'm running... car weighs 3383 w/o me!
60 foot time: 2.318 1/8 Mile ET: 10.676 1/8 Mile MPH: 63.66 1/4 Mile ET: 16.781 1/4 Mile MPH: 81.07
sounds like stock 3.4 times to me....
and she shouldn't blame her times on a non-posi rear, with 3.73's i might add. my old 3.8 had an open diff, and pulled a 2.1 60' and a 15.4 ET with 3.08's.

I dont believe the 3.4 was optioned until 93 with the 4th gens...it was the 2.8 then eventually the 3.1 in the 3rd gens...I have no clue what they ran stock though.

a) you can't quote worth a ****. b) you've got your facts wrong.
the reason why you own your car is MPG? i know several cars, without doing any research at all, that get better MPG. (about as much nonsense as you are spewing, thrown right back at you.)
if she wasn't about running her car, then why would she be complaining on her website (no one went fishing for that one, it bit us in the ass) that her car is not performing to her satisfaction?
quantify your 33 MPG. was that downhill, with the wind to your back? from one gas station to the next, down I-95? saying you get 33 MPG in the context that you use would lead someone to believe you get 33 MPG every time you drive it, which we all know to be false:
1998 CHEVROLET CAMARO Z28 COUPE
Description: Sport coupe, convertible
Model Options: Sport coupe, convertible
Wheelbase: 101.1 inches
Overall Length: 193.5 inches
Engine Size: OHV 3.8-L V6 OHV 5.7-L V8
Transmission: V6: Manual/5, Auto/4 V8: Manual/6, Auto/4
Drive: Rear
Braking: Power 4-disc/ABS
Airbags: 2
Gas Mileage: V6: 19/30 mpg
further, your tag line (also known as signature) is inaccurate:
Similar styling and an economical engine show up in a base Camaro, also cast as coupe and convertible. Its 3.8-liter V6 delivers 200 hp with either the Hydra-matic 4-speed automatic or a stock manual 5-speed transmission.
if you've got: Forged motor, Heads, cam, intake (the only things i can see in your signature that contribute to power production, not even a better exhaust!), you'd have to have gotten an additional 170 horsepower (ok, 70 horsepower if you remove the 100-shot of nitrous oxide, which i have to assume you added in to make your number bigger) and everyone with a V6 wants to know where you got your parts so they can get some too, and, then explain how it is that you are getting 33 MPG? if you are still on a stock tune, which you claim to be, then your car is running like **** with large plumes of black smoke coming from the tailpipe. that's extra gas, in case you didn't know, and it would bring down your MPG significantly. so, which is the truth and which is the lie?
don't come to my house looking for a fight. you'll lose everytime.

oh, and one more thing: your car is not 2-3 seconds faster than either of my V8s. there is only one person that i know of that is running faster than a v-8 with a v-6, and it ain't you.
The car looks good. I can do without the red tint, 17 spoilers, and the v6 tho. People have different ways of customizing there cars. Fatty's got 19 inch chrome rims, my pro/am had a bolt on cowl hood, Kasey's even got a bunjee cord of some type holding his front end together. Lets look at the good things about this car... its got a nice exhaust setup, the interior is very clean as well as the engine bay, and its a FBODY for christ sakes.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...the internet is made for talking ****. Everyone has the freedom of speech and if they dont like the car, believe me they're gonna say something. you dont have to show up to our clubs website and start taking jabs at members whom you dont even know! Very immature.
Cliffnotes: -I dont like redraifs car
-she needs to accept the fact that her car will always be talked about, good and bad.
-talking bad about established members makes me angry
you forgot one:
-we don't need her supporters coming over here either. Â*she's big enough to defend herself, should she feel the need, and trying to change someone's opinion about something is ludicrous to even attempt. Â*if there is one thing that people on the internet have, it's strong opinions. Â*they ain't gonna change them just because you say so.

slow-v6 i severely doubt your a full 2 seconds faster then my v6...as far as v8's there are a good amount in the 12's or better on this ~500 member site so dont get your ego to big there bud. I doubt youve run your car but from the sounds of it your lucky if you hit mid 12's on your 125 shot as it stands and probably mid 13's NA just by looking at your #'s & race weight. To the person that went and told about this thread i have two words for ya "tattle tail" :P as far as redraif goes I will say Im sorry to your personally...not for starting the thread because I honestly think it looks like ****...but getting bashed from one site to the next just for following your dream must suck so for you to see it on one more site must suck...you should probably blame that on the person who for no obvious reason pointed you to this thread...theres obviously more people that dont like it than do so stop defending it & go your own way(joeja) & we'll go ours(jerzey).

Not directed at anyone, this is my honest opinion... I really dont see what the fuss is about with "who's faster"... clicking this thread makes me think I joined Honda4LYFE.net or something... who cares whos v6 is faster than this v6 or v8 or this LG4 is faster than a modded LS1 (just had to add that in ROFL)... theres a .org after NJFBOA for a reason... stands for organization, not cluster****. As long as an Fbody (excluding Koll's) is in front of an import at all times, then theres no need to argue. Thats my 2 cents. This thread may be resumed :-P

well now, this thread turned into a pissing match.
Slow-V6, if she wasn't about running her car, why would she bother dynoing it and taking it to the track? people don't do that to show cars. also, i seriously doubt you get 33 MPG with your mods. I owned a '98 Camaro V6, and even with some mild modifications, it barely saw 28-30 MPG on the highway.
as for the 4th gen V6's running faster than 2nd and 3rd gen V8's, that may be true depending on which V8 you're talking about. An LG4 (4-bbl 305) will definitely lose to a 3.8L 4th gen, but an L98 will definitely lay the smack down on an L36. hell, even a decent-condition LB9 will take out a V6 4th gen.
I'm all for V6 performance. I loved my car when I had it, and had big plans for it. Don't get me wrong on that.
the topic of discussion here is the ugliness of the car. It is probably one of the top 5 worst-looking F-bodies ever. Redraif, not to diminish the time and effort you put into the car, but you could have had better taste when it came to the appearance. It is unique and all, but that doesn't make it good-looking. Lord knows how you won trophies with the thing.
However, I will say this: It is your car, and you will do with it as you see fit. If it looks good to you, that's fine. Don't get offended if someone (or in this case, nearly everyone) doesn't like it. Just accept it and move on. There's no need to go around and make a whole big scene because someone said something negative.
and to the other members of this club:
Let's chill out, OK? We should try to be a little more mature, and represent the club respectably. Don't degenerate into mindless internet flamers over something stupid.

it's one or the other. you either hit 12s or you get 33mpg. they don't have a car (that i know of) that can pull off both. remember, i didn't go looking for this, it came here on its own legs.
and i love a good pissing match every once in a while.

p.s. i still know of only one person who has a modded V6 that runs better than most V8s, but he isn't gettting 33mpg, either.

Yeah that might be true that 4th gen V6's run faster than most 3rd gen V8's BUT my car is a head turner because you can shave looking at my 87 Z28. Yeah its got a piece of **** 305 4bbl V8 but you know what after i did my minor adjustments to my car to make it pass inspection i GET atleast 15-18 MPG's on a 4 bbl carb with 134,XXX miles on it with 93 octane. I work 0.4 miles from work and the last time i put gas in my camaro was Aug. 25th and i drive around in the area of my town. I don't drive it all day long but i do take it out at least 4 or 5 of the 7 days in the week to drive. I KNOW MY V8 IS ASS SLOW AND I DON'T CARE!!!!! you go out and find a pretty much rust free 3rd gen with SOLID floor boards, 1/4 panels and the works for $400 and you come back to me and let me know. My camaro WILL get a work 350(or 383), new trans and new rear because i don't care if i have to put 15-20g's into my car because i'd RATHER spend the money on that car then buy some new Piece of **** fuel efficent honda or toyota to save money on gas. I put blood and sweat into my car and re did it with my father which means my car has more value to me than anything else SO BEAT IT. People can make fun of my car for "not being fast" but you know what i give 2 ****s and a flying **** what people think of it because i know that if i WANT it to be fast i'll MAKE that mother****er fly because I'm one sick mother ****er and i don't care. But i'd rather lay back with a nice car and after all mods are done it'll look good and be quick and thats what i care about.
NJSPEEDER is right arguing on the internet is like the special olympics....i actually think its the dumbest **** to argue on the internet over some HOMO **** but you know what i had just a few captian and cokes and i feel great right now and i've been reading this thread for a while on what people thought and everyone has an opinion and you just got mine.

Not for nothing i think using Nitrous takes really BIG nads and the more power to you and everyone else on this forum that uses the bottle.
BUT im a fan of "all throttle no bottle" because my friends dads 69 VW beetle N/A runs 11.10s now all day long on a flat-4......yeah i said it FLAT-4. OH and it uses STOCK VW rear drums to slow down at the end of the track (no front brakes.)

I havent ran my car at the track yet with the new motor... I can tell you last year with a 90 wet shot on my stock motor with the same exaust setup, same intake and with 3.73's I ran a 14.1@102mph.. The car on made 292rwhp and 393rwtq on a 90 shot but the tq only held up ther from 3000-4000rpms and droped off badly.. now Â*with the cam my car makes 400+ tq from 3000 all the way to 5500 and starts to fall off.. But you right the only real way to find out is go to the track.. put it this way 12secondv6 went 12.1@110 with 315rwhp and 380tq and a race weight around 3000lbs..

Car dynoed 370rwhp, 415rwtq on a 125 shot with 900psi in the bottle on a STOCK TUNE.. Thats with a 9.8:1 A/F ratio.. I dont want to mess with the tune with the maf plus I am waiting to get HP tuners next month.. I havent had the bottle on the car since that dyno which was in March.. I sprayed 1 bottle through the car since the motor was built and I broke a carrier bearing on my stock rear end.. My car weighs in at 3380 with me in it and 3212 without me in it.. I get 33 mpg on the highway and 25 around town On MOTOR... My bad for talking **** to you.. I should have checked your **** out before hand..
Well now you know 2 people with V6's running faster then V8's which is kinda stupid since a 96-02 v6 f-body will run faster times then alot of 2nd and 3rd gen V8 F-bodies stock...
How can you say that without stating how fast your car runs?
I havent ran my car at the track yet with the new motor... I can tell you last year with a 90 wet shot on my stock motor with the same exaust setup, same intake and with 3.73's I ran a 14.1@102mph.. The car on made 292rwhp and 393rwtq on a 90 shot but the tq only held up ther from 3000-4000rpms and droped off badly.. now Â*with the cam my car makes 400+ tq from 3000 all the way to 5500 and starts to fall off.. But you right the only real way to find out is go to the track.. put it this way 12secondv6 went 12.1@110 with 315rwhp and 380tq and a race weight around 3000lbs..
:funny: you arent james enough said...as far as 14.1@102 with a 90 shot Craig(little g) just ran 13.5@100 NA no nitrous, stock block, stock heads, stock cam, stock rockers, stock pushrods,...get the picture? Hit the track run a 12 and shut all the people in the 13's or slower up otherwise please stop talking your making yourself sound worse then you probably are.
