I have just recently traded my 02 Z-28 a4 in for an 02 35th SS m6.... WOW what a huge difference between the 2 models..I can smoke a C5 and give the Z06 a run for its money,is it just me or is the SS faster than what GM claimed??

unless its got something really going on. it shouldnt be that far off of a z28. i think its mostly in your head. does it have center mounted exhaust? if it does its got the 345 hp pack. that could be a bigger difference. but between a basic SS and z28 the main difference is in suspension and wheels. SS has a slightly lower restriction exhaust. but thats it. let us know.

No i have a GMMG exhaust....Even if it is all in my head this car still rips!

Its prolly the 345hp package. The m6's is going to make it seem a lot faster also.

have fun. lay some rubber

It may "feel" faster...but it's probably not. An m6 car can feel faster than an a4 that is actually quicker...

Well have you actually raced a Z06? Because my 35th when it was stock would smack my 03 Vette around. It wasn't even a challenge. It also trapped 109mph. But my 35th is M6 and the Vette is A4, so stock for stock the manual gearing was a big advantage.

That's a huge trap for a stock SS

I have raced an M6 and an A4 C5....they arent a challenge but when i came up alongside the Z06 we went from a 35 MPH roll and i was maybe half a car length back the whole time...I will have to look at my car once winter is over here in MN.

A4 with a stall will beat a m6 no problem.

From a dig, maybe, from a roll, good bye.

Got crack?

My Z traped 110.18 4 weeks ago at Englishtown with my mods. When it was stock I traped 108.73 in the heat. All these were on the stock tires, I can't wait till the drag radials go on this winter and I can cut my 60' times down. She should run mid to high 12's as long as the rear doesn't go BOOM!

CRAGER

Center mount exhaust OR the Dual-Dual exhaust PLUS the SLP lid options rates the SS (or Firehawk) at 345hp.

J/K LOL .... that makes no sence man the both come with the same eaxct motor BRO.and dyno the same. He howerver is prolly reffering to the 35th ss camaro that laid down close to 345 which will take a 97-02 vette stock & hang with a z06

You sound really smart, the ZO6's have LS6's in them, not LS1's, better heads, bigger cam, better flowing exhausts, they arent the "exact same motor', and no stock ls1 is going to lay close to 345 at the wheels, i asume you mean flywheel. And the guy in the ZO6 he ran probably couldnt drive, if he could his lighter 360rwhp car will put cars on a 310rwhp ls1 car.

i agree from a dig auto...but from a roll you cant beat the gear

Z2K_MrJ

this is athread about the 35ss camaro which will put close to 345 at the wheels and will pull a regular c5 vette as i stated..search for it.& it can (hang) with a zo6 but wont win thats for sure .. & i know the zo6 comes with the ls2 in it. 98NBM_Transam
