All you do is complain anymore. If you want something to work on, get a girlfriend you'll be begging for the Camaro again.

If it had a cam,longtubes,clutch and a strong rear end you wouldn't be bored.

Start modding it, and it will barely ever run right. Then you'll appreciate it more when you can go for a cruise.

Essentially, you need more decals.

That's kinda the goal, but it'd see street duty as a fun weekend warrior too. I'd drive the piss out of it every day it wasn't rainy. Track only cars are useless.

This is why I don't plan on doing much go fast stuff....straight line speed is only fun for so long, and I plan on seeing lots of street duty so it'd be bolton/ maybe 224ish cam with gas mileage of a stock car. Twisties never get old, neither does a manual transmission.

Its muddy, takes turns fast, gets good gas mileage, and you can always rock the top down.
Get it and stop whining.

After the car sitting for a month, I enjoyed driving the car to the meet today. And driving a stick never gets old.

True. And yes that's the idea. Maybe throw headers at it, but stop there. We've had it 10 years already so it's almost nostalgic, I'd like to just keep it simple like it is now and do like you said.

Nick some nutral drops should help the auto along to the salvage yard. Then again mine is an auto and I have fun driving it.

6spd vert would work for you. wasn't there a black bird 6spd vert in the classifieds a while back?

Stay away from the convertibles, Mr. my Intake/exhaust heavy ass LT1 went 13.7....Unless you like the idea of a roll bar for your track visits (which be honest they do happen) I don't see the point. You already have the vert you can drive and look bisexual in. I say its time for an Ls1 hardtop/t-top car that you can throw some modest bolt-ons at and call it a fun car. A 6 speed sounds like its in order or else you'll complain about that too, but LS cars can be had for cheap these days (cheap meaning 4-7k). I don't know man, I just can't see you rolling up in a car other than the 'vert.

I would do suspension upgrades, wheels, and tires.

Either mod the hell out of it or move on to something different. You know which way I chose. Simple bolt-ons are fun but only for so long until I would get bored again. A car needs to be able to get my heart racing a little bit for me to stay interested. I got comfortable with the juice after the other mods but at least it took a little while.

Exactly. Build it, break it, build it better. Here we go spending your monies.

Nick if you do buy anything new...MAKE SURE IT HAS A 6 SPEED...worst mistake I ever made and pay for it every time I pull the stick into D...

I vote 2nd car, hard top LS/T56 car. Build it to go fast around corners, trim the fat off it.

same reason ive had so many cars... i buy em, make em look and sound pretty, and sell it and get sumthin thats faster stock... now im 'stuck' on the vette cuz basicly its tops for a while, until i can afford a C6Z er sumthin lol
Eh I have a auto in my vert.... That car doesn't get old to drive. :D *mumbles something about being able to go sideways at the stab of the throttle passing people* ;)

^^ +1, especially since I wanna do this to my car myself. 1/4 mile's fun... For 13-9 seconds. What about the race track that can last anywhere between 2-5 minutes depending on its length, turns, and your car's limits?
Track-Oriented Daily Driver FTW. Then get a beater and just make it Track Car. :)
