Some new pictures of the 98 Z28 w/ 143k miles!

**98Z28importslayer** · 09-01-2008, 09:15 PM

I took these photos with a camera phone so there not the greatest. I was actually very surprised i washed the car 3 times with Dawn super concentrated dish washing soap and it came out alot better then using any car wash soap i have used (Meguiars Gold Class, Armor All etc. pretty much all the most expensive stuff you can buy at autoznne, advance auto parts, Oreillys) The car is a 98 Z28 bright red w/ 143k miles with all org. paint besides the hood and front end which i just got repainted 2 months ago from rock chips.

Hey 98Z28importslayer,

Nice car.
Great photos.
It sure is clean and straight, along with those great wheels.
I also have an A4. How do you like your tranny ?

All the best,

jess

looks real good for 143k miles. what exhaust set up do you have? I always liked the dumped exhaust look

Did you wax it after you washed it with Dawn? The reason I ask is that Dawn you used just stripped off all of your wax.

Dawn is the perfect old wax remover which is probably why yours looks so good. Definatly want to get a fresh coat on there asap though.

But anyway, very nice car. Well kept. You'd never guess it had that many miles on the ticker from looking at it.

So far with 143k miles on the tranny, it works amazing and i love it, no problems with shifts at WOT or anything. The guy before me looks like he had the shift points raised alittle so it really gets up and gos.

Well the car came with stock exhaust, with just a magnaflow muffler in place of the stock one. I didnt like it so i had the exhaust redone from the Y pipe back which for some reason the car came with only one cat

so i changed to a cherrybomb crossflow design muffler with a 3" inlet and dual 3" outlets with 3.5" slashed rolled cut stainless steel tips. I loved it at first and highly recommended the muffler for anybody looking for a good deep rumble and is quite at idle and opens up at 3k+ rpms. But i desided i wanted a change and i cut it off before the axle and thought i was going to do a diffrent setup, but im leaving it as is tell i get my headers then im doing true duals. Right now its just a Y pipe and I pipe.

i didnt wax it after i used dawn, because i usally spend about 3 hours waxing the car and i didnt have time. But i am going to wash the car again this week and then apply Meguiars Yellow 26 Wax

Any advice, tips, or comments is greatly appreicated!

For appearence mods im looking at doing... nightshade corners, side markers, and tail lights, Whistler mod, paint rotors and calipers red and black grill. Most of my $$$ is going into the engine so i gotta wait on getting a sunco cowl hood or the 3-4 inch SS dominator hood and ss spoiler.
