    The Tariff Thread

    Very sad to see enthusiasts getting caught in the crosshairs. I hope the classics and modding community will survive and remain resilient. Most of us have longterm plans for our cars and none of us look forward to suffer to find and source parts in the future. What worries me the most is GM...

    Replaced rear marker lights with ACS smoked reflector lights and installed ACS rear diffusers and blacked out rear tail lights.. Looks awesome.

    Great call Pocono! That would create a nice contrast. Please share more pics once complete.

    N/A vs Supercharged for Street Use

    I agree SC and Turbos wouldnt lump together, that's why I opened up with FI (Forced Induction) in my comments. To your question - I dont particularly see supercharged options as "upgrades" thus created this thread. Z06 may do some things better than Stingray/GS and can be other way around for...

    N/A vs Supercharged for Street Use

    Strictly talking "non-track" - spirited driving on the streets & twisties, We often hear people preferring N/A (naturally aspirated) engines over FI (forced induction) ie supercharged or turbo applications. N/A usually gets associated with precision, fun and "driver's cars". In C7's world the...

    C7 Oil Change / Mobil 1 Supercar 0W-40 Cost

    Thank you Cobravenomous! So because Grand Sport LT1 is dry sump but not supercharged, the liter requirement is still the same as the supercharged LT4 then? The chart is kinda confusing in a funny way. Cant see a straight LT1 Grand Sport capacity =) thanks for clarifying

    C7 Oil Change / Mobil 1 Supercar 0W-40 Cost

    I see Amazon has 6 quarts pack for $95 like you mentioned. Do we need to order 2 packs then getting 12 quarts? How many quarts/liters does Grand Sport/Z06 oil change take with dry sump? 9.5 quarts?

    C7 Oil Change / Mobil 1 Supercar 0W-40 Cost

    Hello Everyone, Curious to know how the looming American tariff situation will affect our oil changes in Canada, given the GM recommended Mobil 1 Supercar 0W-40 comes from US. And to my knowledge, we dont have a local dealer that brings it here which was already a problem. Only GM sells the...

    Love it Pocono! Those mods completed the look. I'm also a big fan of ACS parts - all of their items are OEM quality.

    What part of this great country are you in?

    Even though the poll heavily leans ON, glad to see almost all provinces are represented ! I've moved from BC to Greater Toronto Area (GTA) several years ago. Still travelling in between (not with the Corvette I'm afraid). I would still choose both Ontario and BC if I could =) Cheers everyone!

    What would you consider low kilometres when buying a used C7 Z51

    Year of the car and the maintenance/type of drive history aside, the general rule of thumb would be anything around 30k kms and under would be low kilometers for purchase. One heads up I give everyone, as I see 4 digit kms in the survey like a trap - too low of kilometers is also not a good...

    C7 Z51 Manual v automatic

    Driving manual creates fun & engagement in any journey. Many say drive the automatic for daily driving. I for one believe in most cases, even in daily driving situations in traffic, manual is essential for turning boring commutes into fun trips. Maybe because I'm originally from Europe, having...

    What's a good after market company for ZR1 conversion grill, high wing, front splitter, side skirts, and diffusers

    I would recommend ACS Composite in Montreal with free shipping. It's Canadian, they make OEM quality parts as they used to work direct with the manufacturers. Very happy with all the parts I've sourced from them so far. Just email them with the parts you need, they're very responsive.
