Im nee here. First post. Just wanted yall to chek my baby out. Its a 2004 commemorative edition corvette. M6 car. Bought it for 12k with 100k on the clock. It had typical issues of a ten year old car but its my dream car. It was bone stock. So far its recieved a newish trans with 35k on it. A mgw short shifter with the lower box. Tick master cylinder and a monster stage 2 clutch along with a dte trans brace. Its been lowered on stock bolts for now, hopoing to go to coilovers eventually. Its also recieved a callaway honker ram air, lingenfelter ported throttle body, 1 3/4 american racing headers with 2 1/2 inch x pipe and borla cat back.

I absolutely love this car. Her name is elvira. Ive had her now for about 20k miles. Been having the normal c5 issues. Ebcm acts up. Horn decided to stay on, i think thats the membrane. Ac came out from all vents, easy vacuum fix till the compressor went out. And lastly my hud doesnt display up anymore. These are all relatively small issues for me as i have other toys and a company work truck so it does not get driven regularly. Next on the list is changing from the stock 3.42 gear and moving up to a 4.10

I was hoping it was ground issues so i cleaned up as many as i could find. That worked for about a month. Then back to service traction control/service abs. It doesnt hurt my feelings to bad because its just one less button i have to pushwhen i get in now.
