DON'T FORGET TO VOTE. IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH ENERGY AND IT'S JUST GOOD MANNERS.

This car is gone now. It won't be coming back. It's been sent to a car graveyard to become an organ donar for camros still on the road. =(

Update 10/3/07

So a little over a week ago I wrecked this camaro. I was going probably 75mph in the fast lane on a 4 lane freeway when a lady on her cell phone in a black toyota SUV merges all the way over from the onramp into my lane while going probably about 45-50mph. By the time she had gotten in my lane I had about a 3-4 car gap from her which isn't very much when you're going 30mph faster than someone. So I slammed on the brakes which locked up and I skidded out of control all the way across the freeway. I went from the far left lane off the freeway on the right side. Luckily I didn't hit/hurt anyone and just my back was a little spazzy afterwards. A witness said the lady pulled off on the left shoulder right after I crashed, looked at me while I was getting out of my car, and then she took off. Dirty whore...I loved this car but most likely it will not be fixed. The bodies in good shape but underneath the car (i.e. the tranny, exhaust, springs, shocks, rims,etc) is messed up badely. The motor still works fine though...I'll post an update if anything changes.

Here's a few pictures

My new custom rims...

Somehow my mirror got torn off which doesn't make any sense since I didn't hit anything except a dirt hill under the freeway overpass....

My eddlebrock exhaust likes to drag on the floor now...

Some of my skid marks across the freeway...

I'm going to be the first person to vote "yes" to the law banning talking on the phone while driving. I'd gladely give up my right to do so if it will stop everyone else too. It's a MIRACLE I didn't hit someone or hurt myself all because some idiot lady wasn't paying attention. Whether or not her phone was to blame, it couldn't have helped. Plus my car doesn't have ABS which is why my brakes locked. Hopefully I'll get this car back but unfortunatly, I probably won't. =( But more importantly, at least I'm ok.

Update 5/22/06

New video of me reving the car a little bit. I just started the car just before filming so I didn't rev it all the way since I didn't want to be hard on the motor when it was still cold but I gave it about 3/4 throttle and got up to about 5400-5500 rpm's. And yes, you can see me walk into and out of the car since my friend, who was supposed to be my camera man, got the runs and was in the bathroom for a long time so I decided to just make the video myself. Enjoy.

History
My 94 Z28 was a hand me down from my sister, who bought an 01 Z28. My camaro was built for the Japanese market, and therefore, came stock with side turn signals and a japanese signiture engraved under the hood.

This car really is one hell of a trooper. It has been to and seen hell. Despite what some people have said about domestic and Chevy reliability, my car is all the proof I need that Chevy makes a reliable car. My sister alone put this car through SEVEN accidents. Yes seven. This also validates my theory that women can't drive =P I too have put it through two accidents. One was just a minor bump, the other was a collision on the freeway. Despite all of this and including how hard I drive this car (which is usually very hard), I have had little to no problems ever with the motor. In fact, the only motor problem I've had was December of 05 I blew head gasket. Not a bad history for a car that's almost 13.

Mods
As of this writing, I've got 84k miles on the car. So far I've installed edelbrock headers, edelbrock exhaust, a shift kit (it's an auto), a functional ram air intake, hypertech tuning, and an upgraded transmission. I haven't dynoed the car recently, but just with the headers and exhaust several years ago the car put 287hp to the wheels and 320hp at the fly.

When I blew my head gasket and had the motor out, I also replaced all other components that looked like they were showing their age (belts, spark plugs, water pump, thermostat, etc). The guy who did the work also completely cleaned and honed my motor so that it is pretty much better then new.

Performance
Recently on some old crappy kumhos that are pretty bald(which squeeled all the way through first gear and almost turned me sideways when i stabbed the throttle) I ran a 14.1@ 105.7mph in the 1/4 mile. I know what your thinking, that I'm a douche and my time doesn't match the speed but mind you my tires sucked hard. Really hard. Harder then a priest at a playground. With slicks or radials, this car could give an ls1 a run for it's $$$$.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to drop me a line. I'm really easy going and love to talk cars. Also, if you want me to check out your car, let me know.
