M’s - Z silver bullet LS1 fun toy

Ready to replace these lights.

 

Oem headlights and fogs have terrible light output on these cars even if they're not hazy. You could alway wet sand, polish and go with aftermarket bulbs.

 

They replaced one but not the other. It’s yellow to a point beyond repair. The output is garbage though. I’ll get whole new units. Bulbs I’ll probably stick with factory anyways.

 

Contemplating a shift kit for the transmission.

@MGMDesertTaco well my little one loves going for rides in the Z. On that I’ve decided to only do stuff to help it stay mostly reliable and comfortable. So no crazy performance mods and keeping the suspension close to factory. That will keep the ride comfortable. It badly needs new speakers though lol. It got a good drive today.

 

Have you seen TWA Motorsports YouTube channel? It's run by a car/chevy enthusiast named Travis and he's got several 4th gen Pontiac and Camaro videos. I watched this one recently.

I know I've mentioned it before, but Ian Kee from Kee Audio has been selling CDT speaker kits with the correct ohms for these cars for decades.

These are the cheapest subs CDT/Kee Audio sell for the Camaro. They slam pretty good.

Seen the TWA before has some good stuff. Not sure if you told me before or not on the audio. Can’t remember either way so that’s helpful. Just looking to replace factory speakers only, nothing crazy at this age in life. Been there fine that with audio stuff, just realized today the factory ones are toast ha ha

 

To stay close to original or a dark background? Still be a clear lense.

 

New headlights purchased. Can’t wait. I’ll let that stir for a bit lol.

 

Well new headlights are in. Better pic of overall change to come later. I’ll lie up the light on my garage soon to I hope.
This is the headlight that looked bad.

 

Switched out my head unit. Furthermore identified my crappy speakers in the car. Pretty sure only a couple are working lol.

 

@MGMDesertTaco
Going to be looking into getting some speakers now sooner than later. I think those CDT ones will be perfect for my needs.

 

Funny you mention the CDT's as I was just thinking about ordering a set this evening.

I got tired of leaving my driver's side window 3/4 rolled up in parking lots and mustered up the motivation to finally swap the power window motor. Hardest part was holding the window motor while simultaneously holding the screws and threading the nuts, but I managed to get it done. Window rolls up/down super fast now. 7/8 hole saw bit and 3/16 drill bit for the rivets.


I've got 5-6 sheets of sound deadening left. If there's any left after I finish the back cab wall of my Tacoma I'll replace the 20 tiny piece's the previous owner used on this Camaro's driver door.

 

Oh that looks like fun (scarcasm)

 

Yeah, it was only 105 today too.

 

Gross, same kind of heat here too. Upper 90’s or low 100’s

 

@MGMDesertTaco do you have to take the panel off the door to replace the speaker? That one vid you linked me to had me thinking maybe not.

 

yes, super easy just a few screws; several YouTube videos showing how; also a few write ups on ls1tech I think
