My name is Kubus. Im 20 and Im living in Chicago at the moment. Im from Ontario but work has taken me to Chicago for the summer. I should be back in Ontario in September but for the time being Im in Chicago.

I have a 1991 Camaro RS that I bought when I was 16. I bought it with a 3.1L V6 with an automatic tranny. I hated it but I dealt with it until last year. Last year I swapped in a LS1/T56 combo and it really brought the car to life.

Since then I have added a Walbro 255lph pump, LS7 clutch, C5 front brakes, LS1 rear brakes, EBC spot drilled and slotted sport rotors, EBC Greenstuff pads, Canuck Motorsports springs, C6 wheels, TA leather interior, some stereo stuff, custom blue paint, Z28 grille and probably some other fun stuff that Im missing.

This past weekend I picked up a hybrid rear end that was built for me by another member of this forum (cam-). It is a Ford 8.8inch centre section, fourth gen width, moser axles, motive gears (4.10), Detroit truetrac posi, 1350 yoke etc.

Here are some pics of my car and some of the new rear end install








Old ten bolt


New one





Car is going in hopefully this week for cam install at Straightline Performance. Cant wait to see how it does.

 

congrats! love that color.

 

Oh SNAP!!

Car looks nice and CLEAN just the way I like them!

How about some pics of the torque arm setup!








Ohh and I hate the FRENCH.....

 

Good think Im not from the French part of Ontario lol

Best pic I have of the torque arm setup

 

Don't give up that car. I still have my first vehicle for 9 years and swapped a ls1/t56 into it. Did the ls7 clutch in june with a trans rebuild. Going to do the tires, slide-a-link, and c5/c6 rear brakes. My buddy had the same camaro as his first and if he seen what you did he'd go buy another to start a rebuild. Boy you don't wait around to find the right guys to do a dyno. I haven't been since my ls1 has stock internals but I do all the car shows and goto route 66 and everyone likes straightline.

 

Nice!!! Same color as my old L98 car.

 

nice lookin car man

 

I have seen that car many times and it is one of the best third gens ever!

 

car looks great man!

 

Wow, thats awesome

 

That is gorgeous!

 

whats up dude... i remember you doing your swap on thirdgen.org, at the same time i was doing mine... turned out really nice!

 

That's bad a$$, I traded my 91 RS for my 02 Trans Am. If I had kept it I would have done the same swap. I'm sure it flys.

 

Where in Chicago are you stayin?

 

Evanston

 

Those are some amazing pictures....any of the shopped? Did you take them?

 

I took all the pics myself. They're all HDR'd except for the black and white one. I just desaturated that one. But all of the work was done in Photoshop. Other than the HDR and desaturation, nothing was changed

 

nice pics, i like your thirdgen too.

 

AWESOME MAN!!!! You end up hating those brakepads tho..
I had them, and the dust is unbelievable so i went back to full ceramic

 

That looks awesome, love the color, one of the things that I noticed is the old yellowed coolant bottle in the nice clean engine bay with the new engine. If you haven't replaced them by now let me know, I just took the originals off my GTA with 2600 miles to replace them with new ones, they are still available from the dealer, but I have my originals in damn near new condition that I can give you, other wise I'll prolly toss them. Let me know.
Nice looking car!
