Currently working on fixing my traction issue so I can post up my new timeslips hopefully soon. This car has been surprising quite a few people for what few modifications it has. |

Only mod done so far is a ported and polished throttle body, and it needs a better driver mod (since I'm still learning). By next summer I plan on re-doing the suspension / brakes / tires before messing with any extra horsepower. |

The engine is basically stock, just added an LS6 intake manifold. It currently has a single 3" exhaust and 3.42 factory gears. The car also has some minor suspension upgrades and 4th gen leather seats. I love this car to death, its the reason I'm an auto technician. |
November Car of the Month Mark68's 1968 Camaro RS/SS http://www.njfboa.org/JustinImages/C...ark-Camaro.jpg Name: Mark Erdie About the car: This is my '68 RS/SS Camaro. I bought it about 10 years ago and have refurbished or replaced almost every part on it. The only thing that didn't need to be addressed was the paint. I have a 350 cu. in, 400 hp engine in it with a Muncie 4 speed trans and a Hurst shifter. I just added a Comp Cams Thumper cam that gives it a big block sound. The exhaust is a 2 1/2" stainless kit from Pypes with Violator mufflers. I installed a push button start that makes it kind of unique. The wheels are 17" Troopers for Rushforth. The original seats have been replaced with Arizen racing buckets in black leather with red inserts, the rears have also been recovered to match the front buckets. The front seat belts have been replaced with 3 point racing belts from Morris Classic Concepts. There's much more but I think you get the idea!! |
December Car of the Month sweetbmxrider's 1995 Camaro http://www.njfboa.org/JustinImages/C...dam-Camaro.jpg Name: Adam B. About the car: This 95 Camaro started life as a 3.4L six. With help from some pals, some money, and lots of dedication, it has become a high 11 second DAILY DRIVER. I couldn't ask for more from the car at this point, its simply a joy to drive. It is getting old though and has some wrinkles to show. We'll see what the winter brings for it. |
January 2012 Car of the Month RiggsLW81's 1987 Camaro IROC-Z http://www.njfboa.org/JustinImages/C...ris-Camaro.jpg Name: Chris R. About the car: I purchased this car in the summer of 2005. It was a stock 350 TPI/700R4 car with some basic bolt ons. I envisioned a supercharged street machine with daily driver manners. After a two year nightmare with a (cough cough) "performance shop" that could not handle the build, the car was shipped to Josh at JS Performance. He did an excellent job of building both the motor and transmission. I am proud to drive this as often as possible, and show everyone how awesome a 3rd gen can truly be. Motor: JS built 355 w/ Vortech (V-2) Supercharger, Edelbrock Performer Aluminum Heads, SRP Forged Pistons, Scat Rods, full roller valvetrain, Lingenfelter Super-Ram Intake, 1000 CFM throttle body, Edelbrock shorty headers and a Magnaflow Catback Transmission: JS built 700R4 / 9.5 Vigilante Stall Converter Suspension: Spohn torque arm & lower control arms, Edelbrock Panhard bar, Eibach springs, Hawk pads...more I'm forgetting Appearance: (Exterior) Daytona Iroc Cowl Hood, billet grille, Silverstar headlights, Diamond Clear parking lamps, clear turn signals, blackout taillights, tint (interior) Nordskog Digital Gauges on dash and A-pillar triple pod, 1997 Camaro Seats front & back, and a Grant steering wheel |
February 2012 Car of the Month KirkEvil's 2000 Camaro Z28 http://www.njfboa.org/JustinImages/C...lor-Camaro.jpg Name: Taylor K. About the car: A 1995 Firebird 3.4L was my first car, which I had to part with when going away to college my freshman year. When I came home for the summer, I got the F-Body itch again and found this 2000 Camaro Z28 for sale privately in Toms River, NJ and bought it that day. The previous owner was a middle aged woman that always garage kept it, and had leopard print seat and steering wheel covers and beanie babies on the dash, bone stock. Needless to say its gone through quite a transformation since then. All modifications on the car were done by myself with the help of a great group of friends. These guys are always willing to help and have kept the race passion alive through the ups and downs of the car. I cant thank them enough. My goal for the car was to always stay street drivable so that it always keeps my interest. The current trim as it sits may push the threshold of comfortable, but I love driving it. The car has gone a best 1/4 mile of 11.48 @ 121 mph on street tires, and 10.89 @ 124 mph on drag slicks. There are too many mods to list, so the basics: Custom Ram Air aka HVAC FTP 104mm lid, 100mm MAF, FAST 102mm TB, VR Ported FAST 102mm intake TEA CNC 243 Heads 228/232 .615/.600 111+2LSA Mezeire EWP, ASP U/D Pulley 1 7/8 ARH LT's, ORY, Cutout, Hooker C/B Walbro 255, booster, 42lb injectors, billet rails Full Tubular Suspension, Strange SA front coilovers, Summit Drag rears Vigilante 4k stall, 4L60E w/ Transgo HD2 kit PST 3.5" aluminum DS, S60 w/3.73 gears Lots of stickers for maximum RWHP |
