way2fast97's 1997 Chevrolet Camaro

This is what she looked like when I bought her in 2001. Yep, completely stock except for the Eagle Alloys she's sittin' on.

Here is the complete list of mods:

Always clean under the hood.

Here you can see just how shiny the throttle body really is. I bought it off ebay from a guy named David Koldos. He will send you a ported body and bore-matched airfoil once he receives your payment, then you send him a usable core in exchange. Of course it is a few bucks extra to have the entire thing polished. After about 1500 miles it still looks great, but more importantly performs flawlessly.

Here's a comparison shot of the SLP torque arm versus the stocker. Traction problems are a thing of the past since the upgrade.

This is the promo pic of the F1 GS-D3 tires from the Tire Rack. It is by far the best performance tire I've ever had.

This is the 1997 Trans Am that I recently sold. It was a great car, but why have 2 of the exact same cars?
