"New" South Jersey kid
What's up everyone? My name's Vinnie and I live in Forked River. I'll be 17 next month and bought a 99 Z28 as my first car  . I've been a member on CamaroZ28 and LS1tech for a while but never joined over here, but now that I'll be getting my license I'd like to meet up with some local f-body guys. So anyway I have a black 99 Z28, it's a 6SPD and I bought it bone stock in January. Since then, I've put a LS6 intake manifold, magnaflow cat-back, SLP lid, free ram-air, and put on an SS hood(still needs to be painted). Growing up my dad had a 91 Mustang GT vert, 95 Trans am, 68 camaro race car, and a 2000 Trans am. He was a mechanic, so I like to be the same way and do all the work on my car. Anyway, here's a picture of my car:

Welcome! Just be careful, having a car with power like that as a first car can be dangerous. Be safe and have fun

Thanks for the compliments. I plan on getting the hood painted within the next two weeks and then it's time for headers and a tune. Then, maybe move onto a little suspension. Btw, the car has 175K miles on it and you would not know it by looking at it and the way it runs(oil pressure is great)  .
