My '94 C4 ....pics
So I bought the red car ...this is it
tell me what you think about it
Car has good exterior ..the interior is good also but it has some moving parts like door panel it's little not fixed ok .
I have some questions also :
- seats control are not working !! I checked the wiring but I don't know
- How can I upgrade the suspension to improve the riding and handling ..I dont want to lower it more it's perfect for me with this clearence.
- Stereo and ac and odometer switched are not working ... it's all darkness except for the cluster . why ?
- Do you think if I put a white stripe in the middle and made the wheels black with silver edge the car would look nice ?

Very nice looking vette! Really clean looking!
The emblem on the hood of your car is a C5 emblem. This is just my opinion, but I would remove that emblem and get the proper C4 emblem that belongs there. I know many others here would probably agree with me. However, ultimately it is your car and you can do what you like to it.
The first place to start when trying to fix problems with these cars is to obtain a set of Factory Service Manuals or "FSM" for short. They are usually a 2 book set for the C4, make sure you get the ones with the red covers for your year corvette. They aren't cheap but are well worth the money.
Then it's just a matter of following the troubleshooting procedures in the FSM and see what you come up with.

looks great-loose door panel is common for these cars-there are some threads in the forum to repair the panels. My corvette mechanic has brackets made up for this problem.
good luck. To fix your car you would need a fsm-factory service manual as mentioned above.

Those are 18'' wheels , 295/35 tires
just a cover for protection , I removed them
I think I need the fsm now , but What's the best upgrade for suspension ?? brake system ??
which paint to use to make the wheels look dark grey or black ?? can I remove the paint later ?

very nice looking - 
. the color keyed door handles are a nice touch - sets it off a little from the norm without overdoing it. 
on replacing the c5 emblem - somehow that just seems sacrilegious - 
. love those wheels - i don't think i've ever seen 18 inchers in the zr-1 repros - can you (or anyone else) give us a little more info? i've been kicking around a wheel upgrade for my 90, but really can't decide on anything - those 18 inchers might just fit the bill. again, nice ride!

Damn nice ride. Personally, I like the C5 emblem...keep it. For brakes, I'd go with a wilwood six-piston front, 4-piston rear set up if you have money to blow. Will run over $3,000. For suspension, check out vette brakes, they've got some of the best stuff out there. Van Steel is another great source for brakes, if you want to go the coil-over route, and other vette parts.

Nice vette.
can't help with electrical issues, that is definitely not my thing. But the stereo may be kaput, if it's a bose, it probably is.
