Used 2002 corvette z06 Videos

+The Hooniverse              There is difference between changing pads and adding ducts and changing the brake system.  Needing a better system would mean having to replace the system with a different one.  Installing track pads and ducts is par for the course for just about any street car to run 9/10ths this side of carbon ceramics.  Since the car only needs the same basic changes just about every other car needs done to the stock brake system, it is wrong to say the car needs a better brake system for the track.  That implies needing to change the brake system, which is just not true.As for Competitive Driving mode, its not really saying the same thing as the Active Handling System's settings like slip angle do not change when in Competitive Driving so what you said is misleading and indicates ignorance of what is actually going on.  There are really just three simple settings.  1) AH on / TC on = normal driving mode.  2) AH on / TC off = Comp mode  3) AH off / TC off = OFF.  The system is not like more modern, more sophisticated systems that have different levels of AH which is what I would think by watching your video if I didn't already know better.

+01Z06guy Did you just say it's wrong to state the car needs a better brake system for the track... and then talk about an upgraded brake system for the track?And this "I also don't think you understand how Competitive Driving mode works.  Its not that the Active Handling System allows you more slip angle in Competitive Driving, it just means that traction control is turned off and Active Handling is left on."It's basically the same thing as saying "Competitive Driving Mode allows you more slip angle..."

+donnyinlakai561 I try to at least somewhat know the cars I'm talking about. I'm not perfect, I don't know each and every detail as some of the owners of them. I just know...enough.

+GGScOpEZ He's a good dude.

+MilesPerHr Much appreciated.

cool man, thanks a lot for all the info. enjoy your Z.

+donnyinlakai561 If I did it over again, I'd have spent the extra $2-300 and arranged for the car to undergo a pre-purchase inspection. I knew all the common C5 problems, but there were a few more that my car had, that I didn't know about. A PPI would've helped me make a more informed decision. The biggest thing a PPI would have told me is, that the crazy loud road noise wasn't normal, and was not the tires, which I had replaced. Turns out it was the wheel bearings. As it is, my car is still around the same price or slightly cheaper than one of the same condition or mileage, and I have the benefit of having fresh parts.

I guess that's the risk you run into while buying a car over ebay. Would you do it over again, or would you do something different? (buy in person) 

19.5k, off eBay Motors "Buy It Now." I chatted to the seller, had a buyer for my old car. It wasn't perfect though, I've put nearly 3k into the car on maintenance and minor repairs. 

How much did you pay exactly if you dont mind me asking?

Dave dun you 11 year old troll. Go try to make Matt farah mad like you try to do on his one takes.

+Joel deSanto ... dammit!

+1994C4Vette did you have the bypass mod done on your stock exhaust?

Light throttle cruising it was really docile. It opened up a bit once you got on it. Nowhere near as loud as it is right now with the straight pipes and no cats. You'll love the Corsa exhaust. They sound awesome and are a quality piece.

hahaha yup

you see the fake cowl hood to lol

+1994C4Vette yea iv notice in the video how it was. Jealous you got the car for 16k cheapest I found a z06 was 21k with 60k miles

+bigkarl24 The Hurst was okay. It had its pros and cons. I loved how precise and accurate it was, but it was certainly very notchy and I did experience issues getting the shifter into first gear and reverse. Took a little bit of muscle to get it into gear sometimes. I have an MGW shifter that is coming in soon. I've heard nothing but great things about it so it should be much better than the Hurst.

+EDWARD GUERRERO I have a couple videos up of this doing quarter mile races at my local tracks, along with one video of the car on a road course. I'm putting in a new clutch setup before I do anything else since my slave/throw out bearing assembly is on it's last leg.

Excuse him for being a cool dude in a world full of uptight assclowns

Headers are a must!

nice*

Orlando Dragway, high 50's

+quinner444 What altitude and temp outside? I'm just curious since motor trend or road and track etc. only did a test that I can find a vid of for the 385hp 2001 Z06 as I'm sure you know. Some vid of an 02-04 acceleration would be awesome.

+Infidel SF Yea you're right. A 12' GT500 on the other hand would be a hell of a race. 

lol exactly. The M3 is out of its league. I've owned a few different cars over the years (Evo IX, 04 Cobra with a KB 2.2, 12' GT500, 11' 5.0) and I can tell you I wouldn't even waste my gas trying to roll race a Z06 unless I had a supercharger and was putting around 450rwhp down 

+Infidel SF I have 02' Zo6 that ran a 11.96 bone stock 1/4 mile :)

+DrBIeed said, CAMS... not cam... but CAMS... retard.

+ElteeMullet theirs tons of cam only ls1 F bodies run in the 10s, and theirs even nitrous + cam only F bodies running deep into the 8s.

+DrBIeed Sounds like DrBleed's has been penetrated by a LS hahah! Sucks to suck

+DrBIeed LS motor with cams you say? LOL Go learn you something before commenting... Stock cammed ls1s have made over 400rwhp with the stock untouched heads time and time again. I'm not a ls guy, but damn dude your flat talking out of your ass.

LOL, sounds like you've raced a Chevy & lost lately. Was it a Z06??? You sound kinda, you know.....But Hurt

Heads on my ls3 won't do 500hp, and it naturally comes with 40 more hp than that z06.

+718 Dips Vettes are made for the track too not drag racing. You're thinking a mustang or muscle cars from the 50s-70s

+718 Dips Lmao you still think corvettes aren't made for the track either?

+718 Dips bmw suck douche mobile

+Lina Gallardo awww!! :'-)

Me too!!;)

+trollArceStaff wiiYup. I would get AFR heads, a big FI cam, long tube headers, forged rods and pistons, and then a huge F1 Procharger. I would also get a nice roll cage installed.

Agreed. I'd supercharge it. Loud exhaust black tail lights and windows. Also I'd lower it nice rims and 5 point raceing seat and harness

I agree with you but at the same time I guess he want's to keep the car clean. Still a sweet ride. 

+1994C4Vette thanks a lot man big help  

I know that there's a couple of different companies that offer the harness that eliminates that feature. If you Google search "cags eliminator" you'll find a bunch of them. That feature was turned off when I had my car tuned after the headers and intake were installed.

hey goofy am i still stupid af haha

+free goofy Yes, the LS6 is still a 5.7. Like I said, it's essentially just an LS1 with different heads, intake and cam along with a higher compression ratio.

+1994C4Vette Thank you, are the ls6 still 5.7?

+free goofy Dude, you clearly don't know what you're talking about. The C5 Z06s never had the LS2, which didn't come out until 2005 for the C6 Corvettes. They only lasted until 2007 and were replaced in 2008 with the LS3. The 2001-2004 C5 Z06s had the LS6. The LS6 is just an LS1 with 243 heads, LS6 specific cam and intake, 10.5:1 compression and sodium filled valves. The LS6 also has a bit different block structure compared to the LS1 featuring windows cast into the block between cylinders, improved main web strength and bay to bay breathing. Besides, you could have also found out all of the information I just put here by just doing a simple Google search or finding the info on Wikipedia.

yeah your stupid as fuck. they have ls1 only z06 have ls2. you really dont know about corvettes you lil whore

you really dont know much about vettes do you haha all c5 z06's had ls6's but the 2002-2004 ls6's were redesigned and stronger than the 2001 ls6

+1994C4Vette nice, I have c5 conv. with bolt ons also firehawk conv. with bolt ons and keep them nice with carbon fiber and chrome toys.  Winter time I only drive them when the roads are clean from salt, that's the way to keep them that way.  4x4 f250 plays in the snow instead;)

So far I've done headers, intake and a tune. I'd love to do a 383 stroker with a nice heads/cam package next!

+OhHeyThereGuy never knew that! Haha, weird.

+TheArfdog Car has shitty tires. I was kind of annoyed they never went back and retested the car after they put new tires on it.

From my experience with Corvettes, the brakes aren't what they should be. My hardtop has itty bitty rotors, there's so much empty space in the wheels lol

+Max Germain Haha yes, you're right. My friend told me after and I forgot to change it lol. As you can tell I'm not exactly a chevy guy.
