Default My first ls1, 02 SOM SS! With pics

Well first off, Im going to say, ive been looking on this site for years..Have owned 3 third gens. Ranging from my very first 90 auto v6, and my last one being a 92, 5 speed paxton supercharged. All of these cars were amazing to me, but I was always wanting more.. Always look on here, autotrader, ebay, racing junk, and wished. Well im over sea's in germany and Hell there is Zero Camaro's here period. Well the one I was looking for. Still currently doing my tour in germany before I go down range in a few months and I stumbled on this car, in my home town on craigslist. I immideatly knew. Called up my litlle bro after countless emails back and forth. Parents went out and Looked at it just today, its 3 am here. Just couldnt wait to actually tell everyone at a ls1tech that im finially a member of this awesome brother hood and family or ls owners. Ive waited years. Just a little info on me, now about the car. Shes a 02 SOM Camaro ss. Hardtop, 6-speed. Motor is stock for now, with the exception with some longtubes.

Heres the list:
Jet-Hot ceramic coated long-tube headers
Texas Speed catted y-pipe
SLP Loudmouth catback exhaust
Spohn Tubular Lower Control Arms
Spohn Sub-frame Connectors
Spohn Strut Tower Brace
New 255 lph Walbro Fuel Pump
American Racing Torq-Thrust M wheels:
Front- 17x9 Rear- 17x10.5
New Nitto NT555 tires
Front- 275/40ZR17 Rear- 315/35ZR17

Now with some pics:
Well damn Idk how to upload pics? URL???? F***
