  • New guy here...

    Well, I own a 2002 3.8. This is my second car. My first being a 2.4l Alero which I was sad to give up, but it was starting to knock. So I sold that and found this beauty for a solid $4500









    Car had 100600 when I bought it. Now its up tp 103000. It has the Y87 package and 3.42s with the LSD in the rear so it handles alright. It has T-tops. And its a automatic sadly :/ Its quite alot more car than my Alero was. That was lowered and had KYB struts all around so that thing would def out corner this beast. However I still like the handling of the Camaro. It just needs lowered.

    I know its kinda of an odd color, not too many Camaros in that color im sure. Does anybody know what its called? Is it the Sunset Orange?


    Next weekend I will be replacing the LIMG as that is leaking. My first time tearing that far in to a motor. Future plans are:

    New tires and possibly rims
    Dynomax Super Turbo muffler
    Headers and a full 3'' exhaust
    3.73 and upgraded LSD.
    Eventually a nice cam
    And maybe if I can get my hands on a good turbo later on down the road I will go with some boost :D

                  Yeah this thing needs lowered badly. The stock springs are way too soft. And it needs some LCA bushings badly. Theres wheel hop like crazy every time you get on it even just a little.

                            Take it off. Looks better in my opinion without it.
