And how does the targa brace install?
‘The Vette2Vette kit is fabulous. I can drive with the roof off and no more squeaks and rattles.

Default A few thoughts from a fellow C4 supporter

By Pouria Savadkouei

Buying a decent C4 Corvette in today's tough used car market is not as easy as it once was.

A few ideas. When you replacing tires you’ll need to swap wheels to opposite sides. The saw tooth rims rotate different than what your photo shows. Rims are factory stamped LF RR etc. tires are not to rotated. Bilstein shocks are a good 👍 option. Eliminating the mufflers are a great option for sound effects. Most Corvette retailers sell these pretty inexpensive options. Not sure if it affects smog or not. This greatly improves throttle response.
Aftermarket throttle body bolt on units are good as well.
Has your opti spark and water pump been replaced? If not, when you do replace, there are options on increasing performance etc.

Default Your wheels, Pouria

Nice car, Pouria. You do realize the wheels on your red beauty are on backwards? I've attached a picture of my '92 showing the correct orientation.
