If your motor has the dry sump oil system then it takes 9.3 liters…….if your changing the oil yourself there are instructions on how to check the level of the oil when filling…….follow the instructions carefully and top of as necessary……don’t overfill. As well if my memory serves me...
The Grand Sport, Z06 and ZR1 have wider bodies…..so I would want to find out for sure if the tires I bought would fit. There’s no way the tires from those other Vettes will fit on a Stingray….they'll be too wide at the very least!
I realize that, thank you however. I only have Stage 1 aero so my Z should have a higher top end speed than those Vettes, as you have stated having more aggressive aero. I just found an article that claims 200 mph for a C7 Z, so it’s getting better ha ha.
The only reason it’s of importance to...
I find it confusing relative to what I see as a controversy regarding the “Top Speed” of a C7 Z06. I have read that it is anywhere from 205/206 mph to now being reported as 195 mph. When I ordered/purchased my Z the higher number was easily found with a simple “Google” search. It seems to me...
Interesting and humorous read ……Vacek I hope you get your C8 “Supercharged” from Calloway.
I would however recommend confirming with your insurance company the “new” premiums you will be experiencing post supercharging your Vette as they certainly will be higher, if they chose to keep you on as...
You’re correct if you’re comparing “identical” C7 ZR1’s, one being an automatic and the other being a manual. The one with the manual will attract a higher price!
Read the posts…..it’s a given that automatic’s are faster than a manual, but they don’t provide near the feedback you get with a manual transmission…..and with the severe consequences today (stunt driving) who’s racing when that really draws the attention of not only the police but amateur...
I feel more at “one” with a car with a manual transmission. Downshifting is a blast and ensuring you’re always in the correct gear and RPM range instant torque is there when you want it (no hesitation whatsoever) ….………and considering you could take first gear up to 100 kph you’re not shifting...
I agree with your statement preferring a C8 (DCT Automatic) versus a C7 Z06 Automatic. The C7 automatic transmissions have (milliseconds) delays when shifting. The shifts with DCT transmission in the C8’s are immediate which is desired. That’s why my Z is a “manual”……….
My understanding following reading the available literature on this issue was that the overheating problem which occurred when tracking the C7 (Z06) was problematic only on those with automatic transmissions and not those with manual transmissions. I also read that the overheating issue was...
I’m in the Soo……Sudbury has them but they keep getting vandalized…….I wonder why!
Our city council wants the speed cameras despite Sudbury’s problem, despite a $1,500,000 annual cost to the tax payer and they portray the speed cameras as promoting improved road safety. I wrote our city...
No front plate on my Mustang Cobra which I drove in the summer for twenty years, pulled over twice for no front plate, but not fined and not requested to put one on. Same with my Corvette since 2019, summers only and I refuse to put on a front plate. Got pulled over last summer apparently for...
I’m surprised with the comment that the Ministry can’t do anything with the business’s that sell these so called novelty plates. Wouldn’t copyright laws address this? And the example plate shown by the news anchor did have physical differences than that of the original provincial plate. Are...
