New guy here....found teh place by accident...looks like teh paint is still drying....:D

Here's my car...
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r185/Shifter_album/cars/Vette007-1.jpg

89 A4 Coupe....stock internally 5.7. I've done a C6 front brake conversion using Hawk ceramic pads, drilled/slotted/zinc'ed rotors, Motul fluid and
Earl's braided hoses. I'm running C6-Z06 repo wheels, sporting Michellin PS2 315-30r18 rear, and 275-35r17 fronts. I'm also running a BMAD
air dam, DUI distributor, Taylor 10.4 409 wires, Hooker ceramic Super-Comp headers, with hi-flow bullet cats, true 2-1/2" duals back to B&B
mufflers. Inside I've covered my seats with Iggees red/black covers, and have teh red/black steering wheel and Lloyds red mats to finish teh red
stripe through a black interior thing. As far as injectors, I've got SVO 24lb units. I'm sure there is many more little stuff I've forgotten, but that's
teh basic ride so far....

That is one cool C4 guy. I have a 1989 coupe too. I just bought it and have a lot of wants to do to it. I use to build supermodifys (like sprintcar) that we raced at San Jose speedway back in the 80s. I also built a dirt car and helped the guy set it up for Antioch speedway in Antioch California. That car was more like a stockcar. For two years (80,81) in was the jackman for a Winston West car when he would come up here to Sears Point raceway. This is my first Vette and so your post is a big help for info on things I can do to my car. I really like the way you have your car fixed up. Did you have to use spacers to mount the wheels?
