Nice purchase, congrats. Needs lowering on the stock bolts and the stance will look 100% better.

The first two I did were a pain in the ***, everyone i've done after that has been gravey to me. Dave hit the majority of the issues on the head, all of which are easily fixed weather you replace them with stock replacement parts, or if you buy aftermarket versions.

All in all, I have owned two vettes, driven probably every platform, the C5 is a unique machine, and I love it to death. I don't think I will ever sell my C5,..as I feel it's timeless....especially the FRC/Z06 design/roofline. They do get more loose then a C6 vette,.... for example launching,..hard. The C6 seems easier to pilot out of the hole,...as the C5 seems to require more pilot skills, especially once you get to bigger HP numbers.
Same here


Congrats on ZO6 OP!
