Soory for the night pics but the 13 is finally home.

List of mods....

KOOKS 2" STAINLESS STEEL LONG TUBE HEADERS
KOOKS STRAIGHT CONNECTION PIPES
K900 FUEL INJECTORS
10% PULLEY UPGRADE
NICKEY PLUG WIRES
ATI DAMPER
AMSOIL FULL SYNTHETIC OIL/FILTER CHANGE
TUNE
ROLL BAR
6 POINT CHROMOLY .95WALL/SCCA
ROAD COURSE DESIGN ROLL BAR UPGRADE
INSTALL HARNESS & ROLL BAR
STAGE I CAM KIT/INSTALLED AND RETUNE
BOOST A PUMP INSTALLED
PORT UPPER SNOUT & 2.55" PULLEY CHANGE
PORTED THROTTLE BODY
UPGRADED TRUNION KIT


The end result...






The 13 literally shakes the very ground at idle and when the light turns green you have to get your RPM's up or the car will bog down, there is no gentle driving of this baby. It wants to run hard at all times. The line-lock makes things really fun as leaving tracks everywhere is easy and just plain fun.

The hole ride home from Nickey people were taking pictures, giving me a thumbs up, along with a few requests to rev it up. It was kinda creepy and surprising all at once. The power and the handling are just off the hook. I took my girlfriend for a ride and the car scares the shit out of her.

Once I upgrade the cooling and get some Hoosiers we'll she how the 13 does at the 1/4 mile. Again I apologize for the night time pics but I hope you guys enjoy them. This car is truly an animal.

I know many of you didn't like the matte black hood but I added a Nickey sticker to it and the rear spoiler is functional with carbon fiber. I'll take better pictures when the sun comes back out.


Stefano Bimbi and the crew at Nickey did a great job and I can't say enough about what they done for me but here it is Nickey #13 Stage II Super Camaro!









































More pics to come tomorrow.

Beautiful car and incredible numbers. I hate to tell you this but they made a typo on your car. The K is backwards.

Haha! That's the Nickey trademark.

Corbeau. The stock seat belts are still in the car for street driving and tank plates were installed for the 5-point harness on race days.

Nice numbers. That's really spinning the blower high at that rpm. What are the SAE numbers and how are those seats compared to stock? Any cooling mods?

Nice.

A few bolt on mods and a tune = bye bye Hellcat. lol

Loose that front lic plate and get zl1addons front plate holder. Your loosing too much cooling by blocking the lower vent on your ZL1. Your going to need every bit of cooling with these new mods.

I have to wait to rack up more cash but dual AFCO fans and a coolant reservoir is in the plans. The Z is 850 at the crank. On the Dyno it came in at 731 hp and 672 torque.

The Corbeau seats are real comfy and you won't be moving around in them like the stock seats. You settle righht in and no movement at all.

Yeah it's a Hellcat killer if I drive it right. The front plate will unfortunately have to stay for now.

Awesome! +1 on the ZL1addons. Looks like a JacFab plate holder so that can be removed when the beast is unleashed!

Hello kitty...

As promised sunny day pics!



























The guys at Nickey did a phenomenal job, the shop is all-pro, I highly recommend them to anyone even if you have to drive from out of state Nickey Super Cars is well worth the effort. They built me the car of my dreams.
