2002 V6 Camaro
this is my 2002 v6 camaro. bought it a lil beat up and had alot of it repainted. its a 5speed car, one of my favorite things about the car. it had 50,xxx miles when bought now has roughly 80k and has given me a serious problem since. it current has a leaky slave and is getting the clutch redone so it will be running good as new.
as far as mods go its a v6 so im not even going to dump money into it to get it to move. i picked up a set of headers off here for cheap so those are going on but other than that im leaving the mods to appearance. so far ive added an ss hood and rims, color match shifter and a billet grill. more appearance mods will come in the future. this is my first car and i couldnt ask for a better one. i plan to drive this one into the ground and i will continue to dd as long as it lasts. id only trade it for another som ss stock http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7713702_n.jpg hood http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._4745903_n.jpg rims http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._6213518_n.jpg grille http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._1497455_n.jpg http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._2975976_n.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...G_1548edit.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...k/DSCF4586.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...k/DSCF4581.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...DSCF4528-1.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...DSCF4508-1.jpg http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...DSCF4501-1.jpg plasti-dipped from grille http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...71968551_n.jpg |
One of the cleanest v6 cars around. Looks great Nick
|
thanks matt, takes some elbow grease but if its not gonna go fast might as well look good
|
very nice 6er :)
|
Sunset orange was a limited color...car looks real good...not too bad for a first car, my first was an '84 h.o z28 that the prev owner spot painted w/the windows down..needless to say 'nothing more needs to be said'.
|
looks really good. ever consider a black sail panel for it ?

well it has been more than a year since this thread has been updates. since then ive done a few things to the car
new chrome zr1 rims 17x9.5 with Michelin pilot a/s plus 275.40.70 eibach pro lowering springs eibach sway bars bilstein hd shocks and struts energy suspension poly bushing kit umi 2 point subframe connectors lakewood PHB k/n cold air intake ss spoiler http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/83...0107131035.jpg 9.5 rims with +38mm offsets give it a good stance compared to the stock 10 spokes http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/594/img6061z.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/607/img6046h.jpg this was the first day with the lowering kit and suspension parts, it has since settled about half inch more http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/83...0317001334.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/84...0312170559.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/34...3040223201.jpg most recent pic of car, about 2k miles on suspension. such a difference in handling future mods..... v8 swap or project car to tinker with8-) |
looks very nice. you get into the details of an ls1 swap? I'm looking to do the same when my 3800 goes also with a 6 speed swap
|
Looks very good, i hope that is a lesson to all to not leave your hand in the fenderwell when working on the suspension...haha.

as for the project, i would mind swapping and putting motors in that since i wouldnt need to drive with that . |
It would make a really nice car to swap since it looks like its in such good shape. Swap it and buy a beater and you can probably save some money over the price of a z or ss. Plus you already know the condition of everything else in the car so no need to worry about it like with a new car.

i think i may be able to source a t56 for a decent price too, what all would i need to swap? engine, cooling system, trans, computer system, brakes? rear? |
The rear should be the same your gears will just be different and probably open diff. Brakes are the same,the ss has a larger radiator, youll need a harness, k-member, pcm, engine, trans. Might as well just get a tubular k-member while your at it. Look for a wrecked ss or z28 that would probably be easiest.
|
is the suspension any different?
|
Suspension is all the same I believe where the motor mounts go in it k-member are different

Don't swap a damn thing.
By the way, love this shot!: http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/34...3040223201.jpg Looks much better with the front plate removed. |

funny enough that pic was just taken in my driveway (obviously) with my cell phone after school one day. i as well was suprised with the quality of the pic. i havent got to take the car out with my DSLR to get some decent pics with the lowering kit. |
