Default New MN guy with C5Z

Hi everyone,

I'm making the rounds after just purchasing my first Corvette. I picked up a 2002 Z06 two months ago with 28k on the clock. It was nearly bone stock minus a C6Z shifter, flowmaster axleback, and other small goodies like a shorty antenna, partition, etc.

Well, the mod bug didn't take long to hit me. I tinted the windows 20% a couple weeks later, installed a Vararam CAI and lowered the car using C6 bolts and longer rears a week after that, and I just recently picked up my dream set of wheels - CCW SP500s. 18x10 fronts with 275/35s and 19x11.5 rears with 305/30s.

Plans are to add headers, replace the flowmasters, and tune this year, and next year will likely involve a boost-friendly cam

Oh! I don't know how many posts it takes to make a FS thread, but I do have a set of speedlines with nearly new Michelin Pilot Sports that would sure look damn sexy on a Camaro/Firebird/TA. Linky is here (if this is not acceptable per forum rules I will remove): http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-p...ot-sports.html

On with the pics:
