Default New to the forum, Heres my Z.

Hey everyone, Ive been fishing around on here for a few months, but decided to finally post up. Ive had my Z for around a year now. I bought it from a buddy in Lexington, KY, I live in West Virginia. I have a 2005 Touring Z. List of mods & pictures below. Im new to this forum, I was big into the J-body game the past 6 years, figured it was time to step up. My previous project was a 2004 cavalier with a saab td04 turbo kit, 20's, etc. Hoping to meet a lot of new people on here & maybe meet up with some locals, in my area there is about 6 of us with Z's currently that I know.

The old car:



The Z:
2005 Touring, 6 Speed.
19x9.5, 19x10.5 Varrstoens with 245/35, 275/35
Eibach Pro-kit
SPC Camber kit all around
Motordyne Intake Mani w 5/16 spacer
AEM intake
ACT clutch
RevUp tune
APS test pipes
Injen SES dual exhaust
LED tails
Custom Projectors
Stillen splitter
Ricks2K voodoo shift ****

I believe thats all. Thinking about powdercoating the Varr's gloss white & throwing some spacers on it soon. Heres some pics.














Thanks for looking!

He may have been on here, not quite sure. He probably was. He did most of the mods on the car, the only main thing I have done is the camber kit.

Thanks guys. I want to go a little more aggressive with the setup, im +22 all around right now, thinking about going down to +12 or 0..Ive never rolled fenders before though, so that scares me a little bit. I need help there lol.

No, the fenders arent rolled. It doesnt rub at all. i used to be camered about -3ish all around, and it sat better, but i wore through tires really quick, but i might be going back to more neg. camber. But ive never had any rub.

Thanks everyone.
