First Time Vette Owner
Just wanted to say hi to all on the board. I just took delivery my 03 Blue ZO6. Love the performace of the car in all aspects, reminds me of my 69 DZ302 Z-28 and 68 Hemi Road Runner. I'm going to have to get rid of my 00 Turbo GTS Celica now as I have no more room in the garage between the Vette and My Harley. Here's a link to see my toys. http://photos.yahoo.com/goforit2816

Re: First Time Vette Owner (CPT Z06)
Thanks for the welcome the Celica is in the process of being sold as we speak! I do want to mod the ZO but I'm looking for your advice on what mods I should start off with? No lets not get out of hand right off the bat and tell me the Lingenfeld or Vortex S/C's, that will come at a later date being I do want to join the 500 club :cheers: I did a search and really didn't see too many mods for the car, steer me in the right direction and I'll buy them :flag :party:

Re: First Time Vette Owner (jersey jay)
Nice car! Good Taste, too.
Got a brother-in-law in Ridgewood and another in Wycoff. Next time I'm up your way, we should get together.
Put a cold air intake on for some immediate bang-for-the-buck power. Lots of good ones. Make sure it brings in COLD air. Keeping the filter under the hood iwth all that hot air is a total waste, IMHO.
To see some really sweet Vettes from stock to race car, go to E-town for the Corvette Challenge. March 22nd is the first date this year.
:steering: :D
