Glad To Be Back
Gents,
I have just purchased a C5 Corvette FRC 1999. The car has less than 66,000 miles and I really in love with it. Not only because the car came with a lot of mods but because its all black. I have really missed owning a Vett. I have owned four in my life and this one is the best one I have owned so far. I had a C4, C6 Z51, C5 Z06 and now a C5 FRC. This one takes the cake in power and looks, well at least to me. The car has two nitrous tanks in the back. I am really not sure whether I am going to keep the system or not. I have heard that you can really do some bad damage to the car if the system is not running right. I guess will see, right now I am having issues with the alternator regulator and the belt. The belt is really noisy and I am hoping that the gatorback belt will take care of that. I will post pictures soon.
