New to me 2004 Corvette!! Hi guys!!
Just thought I'd throw a thread in here amongst the sponsor threads and all and see if I can get any tips, tricks, or advice for my new to me Vette. She's my first, and I'll admit it right from the get-go, I'm head over heels!!
All she has now is an Ecklers Corvette "Power Duct" with a Donaldson Blackwing filter, and a Corsa Sport Exhaust. 1-4 shift light does NOT come on though, and it doesn't skip me from first to fourth, so that tells me she HAS been tuned in the past. (Even with just a skip shift eliminator, the light would still come on...)
Any advice, please feel free to send it my way!! I'm a Corvette NOOB!!! All I've bought for her so far is an MGW and the filler plate for the front license plate area.

Change every fluid it has then new rims and polish those calipers. 10 coats of Zaino and start modding! Wow, that under hood shot looks amazing, looks like a dam nice find man! My first performance mod to that car would be headers, definitely LT headers

That's upcoming as well. Still torn between Phadt and ARH, but leaning more towards ARH.

Anyone have any pics of using a "crossbeam" to jack up the rear of the car?
I hear guys use about a 3' piece of 4x6 and span it somewhere under the rear of the car to do this once the front is on ramps?
