Default c5z06 in central NJ

hai,

i've got a stock-ish 2003 c5z06 that i bought in april 2011 with just about 30,000 miles on the clock and as of today its' a tad above 39,000. 1,000 of those miles were the drive home from florida where i bought the car, and the rest is daily driver fun in the summer and five track days at NJMP. the only mods i have done are a borla xpipe and dual tip stingers without a tune.

do hash-tags work around here? i'm using @pharoh 's garage from time to time haha.

obligatory pics:

they are chrome and a bitch to keep clean. i'd like to get some ccw classics or fikse fm10's but i'd rather spend the money on better seats or time on the track.

Welcome to LS1tech.

That is a great looking Z06. Were those pics taken in Edgewater?

If you want a tune I suggest Tune Time Performance in Toms River.

Very nice c5. I also have a c5 but not a Z06. I wish I could find a good tuner in my area. I live in Hershey, Pa. I'll have to keep looking. I took my side mouldings off so it looks a little like a Z06. One pic still has the side mouldings. I love these things.
