Default hi from 2002 ss owner

LOVE the forums guys!! this site is great. i have a 2002 ss camaro 35th anniv. it has 16k original mile and i've had it for about a 1 1/2 years. i just put some nitto nt05 tires on it. i'm wanting to start with a few bolt on parts but i still have a lot of research to do.

so far i think i want an SLP lid and some subframe connectors (welded). i look forward to chatting with you all.

Welcome, great mods to start with. I agree that you should get some longtubes as well, and a tune. Throw it on some stranos, and it'll sit pretty too.
