american's luv their vettes thats for sure..and so many power upgrades. Imagine how quick it would spool up to with the big block..

I used to like them, but seeing some of the older ones on the road these days and even sat in one at a dealer.. not really that impressed. They look pretty old and dated.

A new one of course would be a total different story.

The Z06 will continue to be outfitted with the unique six-speed manual transmission for 2002. It will enable skilled drivers to achieve 0-60 mph times of 3.9 seconds and to cover a quarter mile in 12.4 seconds at 116 mph.

nasty...almost makes a GTR look slow!

thats fair enough i guess u can make any car go fast with 10 grand worth of mod's

but the fact is

most of the 7sec cars even the top fuelers

they r all big block 8s if not big block they r 350s.. u never see much 5 sec 2.6L

at the end of the day

no matter how much boost u run..

its cubic inchs that will get u the power if ur after a FULLY SICKKKK ANIMAL ahhaha

those engines r only good for full throttle and in a straight line.

has no relevance to a street car

zdenko,

is the 91 vette a C4? my old man has an 86 C4 which i think is the same shape and engine and everything as the 91. Goes VERY hard and looks the goods i don't care what anyone says!

Check out the ZR-1 corvette which was a 91-only model that is suped up from the factory and is a bloody beast over the normal vettes (which are beasts anyway!).

Ive sat in a C5 vette and of course my dad's and i prefer the C4 shape and the interior.

thought this seemed relevant...

Waz.

yeh

i love the c4

only problem being it doesnt have the power over da c5 which have the LT1 motors in em

bad point of those motors

compresion to high

to much hassel turboing em

so the c4 looks like the way to go..

i love them

allways been a dream car of mine

i loveee emmm

hahah

is ur dads manual or auto?

what do they do on the 1/4 mile?? any ideaS?

dad's is auto and stock 0-100 is 5.6sec

but he got a chip for $350 when he went to america last year! don;t know quarter but i would expect high 13s or low 14s

do u know of the ZR-1 vette? check this out before you buy anything coz its probably as quick at the TT one...

    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
