My new Z Hey guys, just picked this up the other day from Milwaukee (400 miles away) and must say I can't be happier, let me know what you guys think. Besides switch out the exhaust, I already plan on it, I think they're flowmasters, but they couldn't tell me if that was the case or not.
Everything on it is the way it came from the dealer, so I haven't had a chance to play with it. Let me know if there's anything you think I should do to it. I cleaned off those letters from the lid already so once I clean it up I'll take some better pics.

I'm almost positive it's after market. Once I clean up the engine bay and clean the car and all that fun stuff I'll post some better pics. These are just the ones I got off AutoTrader when I was looking for it. The engine pics are ones I requested they send me before I drove up there. I must say, I absolutely HATE Chicago and the traffic up there. But other than that a six hour +- drive one way was totally worth it.

yeah, you can see the breather hose tied down off to the right with the k&n breather on it. Mine is the same way. Trying to find a clamp with a peg on it so i can place it in one of the stock holes on the lid support. Anyway, Nice car man. You're gonna love it if you've never had one before.

It just turned 70k today. I washed it today and took some pics but no insides, I'll have to post em up in a minute. And no, I've never owned one before and I definitely love it.

Haha, thanks for all the comments guys. Snowflakes will be removed as soon as I get some new rims and some Nitto's, not sure which ones I want yet. Will definitely lower it, and I plan on putting some LT's on it with a magnaflow exhaust instead of flowmasters. Also a different hood will be put on I think.

Brings back memories...
My buddy had one EXACTLY like yours except it was a V6.
He was doing doughnuts in a parking lot and hit a bunch of gravel and totaled it. He tried telling the insurance company that he hit ice and lost control, lol
Anyways, great buy and keep her clean!
I drove about 12 hours round trip to pick up my bird...WELL worth it
And don't do burnouts in rocks!

M6, had to have an M6, I just enjoy them so much more. I've been so busy this weekend that I haven't had a chance to even clean out under the hood. But I plan on cleaning that up nice, probably doing the wire delete and a couple other mods. An ls6 intake or a fast 90 will go on there as soon as I get some extra cash. Still undecided on LT's but I'll probably go kooks or American Racing. But first, the rims have GOT to go lol.

thats cool. I would say ls6 intake by far unless you plan on modding real heavy because thast when the fast 90 will start to shine. Besides, the ls6 intake is much cheaper. Kooks and ARH headers are good! Most ppl will tell you get pacesetters and they have been just as good for performance and fit real good! I personally have hooker headers on my f-body and love them.
