New Guy...2002 SS

**SuperSport346** · 02-09-2010, 07:56 PM

Hello!

I joined the forum awhile ago but hadn't posted anything until today. I also post at MotorTrend.com, CarFanatics.org, and RegalGS.org

I have a 2002 Camaro SS/SLP with 29k on the clock.

Mods I have done:
SLP intake and Exhaust (from factory)
Custom leather seats
Smooth Bellow
Red Face Gauges
UMI Subframe Connectors
Baer Slotted/Drilled Rotors
BMR Strut Tower Brace
Skip Shift Eliminator
T56 Viper 3-4 Shift Fork
T56 Billet 3-4 Shift Keys

I'm from Michigan.

Also looking for suggestions for other mods. Mostly looking for appearance, since I already have planned what I want to do for performance and handling.

-SLP headers
-Shocks/Springs
-MAF and Throttle Body
-One Day a new cam and maybe even a turbo setup.

For Appearance I'm thinking:
-Tint
-Custom Headlights
-Dash Kit?
-Painted Calipers
-Custom Rims
-Some kind of Striping (GS hash marks or hockey stick stripes, in red)
-Some engine dress up goodies

Thanks in advance for suggestions!!

Nice looking ride you got there and welcome to the site.

Any future plans for her?

PS - I am tired of seeing that sweet ass looking CME. Making me want to get one!

Beat me to it.

First things first....NO on the SLP Headers. Do some research on here about headers. SLP are way overpriced, have high HP claims, and have terrible ground clearance. Quite a few nice budget friendly brands (pacesetter) and then more top of the line (Kooks, ARH)

I would also suggest NOT touching your MAF. Stocker is good for about 500HP.

Other than that, I like your plans!

I love the CME...but ever since I bought the car the tips have been dirty and I cannot get them clean...

Welcome to the site

What have you been trying to clean them with?

If you have not tried it yet, steel wool or wetsanding them may get them cleaned up.

I took mine and had the tips powdercoated, they clean up much much easier that way.

Love the seats! Plans sound good, minus the SLP headers and MAF swap. Lots of options for shocks/springs.

I see your trying to do some dress up to the whole car. We have a few sponsors here with some really cool stuff. Check these threads and sponsors for some things that might interest you.

Welcome to the site!

Thanks for the links!

I just have to decide what I'm buying first, and where the money is coming from...
