Got a chance to make a better video of the car at idle since the new cam. I've been driving the beast for the past couple of days and I don't know what turns more heads, the Tahoe or the ZLX. The speed on the Camaro is simply crazy, breaking wheels up to 4th gear! Also re-carpeted the trunk area with a nice black plush carpet over the sound deadening Dynomat and it came out damn good, better than the pictures show. Also added my true metal diamond plate mats & you can see the custom paint job on the interior & door panels that were painted gloss black from the backside, thus allowing the light strip around the panel to show through. I color sanded the car the other day and tomorrow I'll be breaking out the Porter Cable, Adam's car care products & giving her a shine. |

Thanks Tommy! I really can't explain how happy I am with how everything turned out, from inside to outside. The scary thing is I still have a few more tricks up my sleeve! Quote:

You're killing me lil' Bro! Besides my wife would kill me too, I don't even want to think about how much I've spent between the 2 whips, I may have to But I will say it sure is nice to have a choice of which head turner I want to take out. I still have a few more things planned for both of them, I just got a set of heavy duty towing mirrors with LED turn signals, Recon LED Amber Cab lights, a smoked 3rd brake light, and I'm going to put on a Rolling Big Power black powder coated exhaust system on the Hoe. I'm also going to upgrade the internals on the Mag-Tec rear differential with a different set of gears. Plus I have some custom Z71 Offroad decals that are going on. Then on the ZLX, we're going to do a prototype on some LED tube lighting around the inside door panels, kind of like the new Benz has. And with 700+ RWHP and upgrading the rear, I want to take every precaution to keep her running great so I'm going to be installing the Mantic 9000 Twin Clutch & the larger Brembo Brake kit. Plus it comes in this cool metal case! Then that'll be it as far as performance goes, and I'll finish up with my custom design wrap job. Things never end over here, but it's getting close! |

Oh and one more thing, if you're near a Barnes & Noble bookstore, make sure you pick up the April issue of GM High Tech Performance Mag, you'll see the ZL1 EATR up close!

Hey Kronix! As always your ride is amazing and gratz on the mag. I have a question for you though. Do you think after all the time and work you have put into this car you would ever sell it or do you see yourself keeping it till death do you part? I like to think I'm going to be the old guy still waxing his old 2012 SS in 30 years. What do you think?

Yea I figured as much Luke, the SS Brembos are kick ass, and even though they only have 2900 miles on the car, I just want to get this shit done and out of the way. With the power I'm putting down, I want everything to be bulletproof. BTW smoked a Shelby 500 last Saturday like it was a 4 banger, my buddy in the car turned white as he got sucked into his seat! |
