Re: 5th gen 20" staggered Camaro wheels.

Not sure why you still have these. This seems to be a great deal on one of the better looking factory wheels on these cars in my opinion. Those wheels just look "right" on a Caprice.

Re: 2013 9C3 - Black - NW Indiana

Totally agree, I'm right there with ya. I guess my stand is mostly financial. And it should be noted I'm notoriously a cheap ass... I like to chase the major gains first, and then attack the minutia later. So... Let's just say that it's $1,000 to port a set of heads, shipping etc... To me, that $1,0...

Re: New Member from North Carolina

Total bummer about the V6... The L77 engine is the only reason to buy one of these. But, as you say it'll get you some experience with the platform while you search for the car you ultimately want.

The 18" V6 Camaro wheels at the top would be my vote for the best looking, but they're pretty common.

Welcome. I have also looked at Asia Motors, and agree that their stuff is clean. And they're proud of 'em.

Re: 2014 CHEVY CAPRICE PPV AIR CONDITIONER NOT COLD

Not picking on the OP here, just offering help. Seems his knowledge of how A/C systems function is particularly low. So, that said.... Don't try to replace the expansion valve yourself. You'll release all the refrigerant. You have to evacuate the system before replacing components. If you're already...
