I remember seeing this car on here a couple of years ago. Looking back at the old thread the previous owner stated a couple issues. Though they are nothing serious, I just wanted to know if they have been resolved? Also does this car burn through plug wires often, I know that seems to be a common issue with most turbo vettes I've seen?
Small issues with the car:
- Computer occasionally throws a light for a clutch switch code (P0704). I talked to Vengeance Racing about this (they performed the auto swap) and they said that this happens because the computer doesn't recognize a clutch. The code can easily be deleted through HP Tuners so the light doesn't pop up. I usually just clear the code and it stays off for a few hundred miles.
- The driver side door sometimes doesn't unlock with the fob (I sometimes have to use the key). This is a common C5 Corvette problem and is most likely due to a bad relay in the door module. A new relay just needs to be soldered in.

Driver side door lock does sometimes not unlock with the fob. I never corrected this as I haven't seen a critical need to do so.
Plug wires are fine, they have the fire-proof boots around them.
