I don't know where I can get them, but I want the C6 Z06 calipers, rotors and pads. The whole setup.

I guess time would be a big factor also...

I just need to finish the two major mods I've already undertaken!

1. Complete my flares

2. Finish stereo fabrication and install

After that . . .

My next major mod, I'll be custom painting my C5.

If I had the $$$$? A polished, intercooled maguson!

Money would certainly help, but since I do everything myself, I need MORE TIME!

Aside from small things( worth between $50-$200) here and there. My next major mod will be a 3.42 rear end. Already spoke with Rick or rickanthonymotorsports.com about the possiblity of installing this for me. But no offense Rick, I'm still looking for a better price although the price you qouted me is about lower average. I'll call you again in a few months.

My last appearance mod was a week ago. Chrome screws in the engine bay and trunk compartment.

Two hours later, after the show, I was creamed by a Bronco. The other driver was cited for running a red light and being drunk.

Car is currently being repaired. The next mods (carbon fiber covers) are still in boxes except for the 1 piece fuel rail-plenum cover which I pick up tomorrow from the custom shop that's air-brushing it's chrome lettering.

My last mod for the year (I Hope) is a B&M shifter that I'm waiting on, already received my new ****. But, if money was not a problem it would be a head/cam package RIGHT NOW. Of course I do want a Caravaggio spoiler pretty bad right now to. I think I'll just quit there because I could go on and on.

Well, I have been wrestling with all my engine mods and exhaust mods. Now, what I would like to do next is to install some killer electronics (stereo, iPod, DVD, etc.).

I'm doing a custom stereo system next. I was going to do the basic bolt-on performance mods first, but the stock system is practically useless on the highway with the top off.....
