Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
This is what I believe is a RS that I got this month for $800.00, & has been sitting for three years in one spot on the GROUND.

I have these door codes: 'Y87' The V6 Performance Package: 'G80' Auburn or Zexel Torsen Limited Slip Differential
3.42 gears Auto/3.23 gears Standard
14.4:1 Sport Steering (same as Z28) P235/55R-16 tires (required with RPO Y87)
16" aluminum wheels (required with RPO Y87)
dual muffler outlets.
Y3F (which was the "sports apearance package" and had all the stuff an RS would have had, only no badges)
'B84' (Ornimentation, Exterior molding)
'CC1' (T-tops)

Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
The engine is blown up, and I have no idea of the damage inside. It sounds like there is several parts broken inside, but it does start and moves the car. I need another 3.8 engine.
This is why I joined this forum: to get help from others on the remedy and subject of installing a new or used moded 3.8, and to have some future ideas on the performance mods along the way to the engine installation. I hope this project will go smooth and by spring I have the doner car an or parts to do the switch. Please add comments to the page for insight to the rebirth of "Blue"

Suspension Modifications:
Stock as of today: New cliper and hanger LOL, front rotors and ceramic pads around. D.side inner an outer tie rods from 1st owners wreck into a tree. Want to lower the stance just a little to hold Z06 wheels.

Wheels/Tires Modifications:
The chrome wheels that look blingish instead of the mean look I want. Black or chrome Z06 will look way better.

Interior/Exterior Modifications:
As of now stock grey int. I would love to change the seats to black leather one day. Exterior: I need new Halos headlights with the LED strip @ the bottom. I need to buff the paint out and replace the front d.side fender an paint.

Future Modifications:
Engine work,to get it to move forward to point B. an not break down LOL Read more ยป

Blue's good side :)  Yes I have the center caps.  I want the larger Black Z06 double spoke wheels though!!  I'll be looking for those once the engine and exhaust is up to par.

Feel like I'm droping my pants showing ya this...Blue's hurt, but not out the game!!!  Notice the wheels?  Swear they were GREEN AND BLACK before I used the 5 coats of Turtle wax chrome cleaner.  The Quasar Blue is popin in the sun even before the first car wash in three years!!!

Notice the pass lower trim missing....yeah that's in the trunk waiting to be put back on LOL  The front grill will be the X3 billet style grill chrome an black strips. It's going to look mean with the blue halos an led strips.  I need a fog light upgrade too, the stock ones are hued, and ugly.  Led will replace the stock.

T-tops!!  They don't leak, but drivers side window is jacked an needs put on track, having caused the rubber to be folded with a twist?  A heat gun & a easy hand should take out the twist I hope.

This is just a pic of 3 year spoiler funk consisting of algae and dirt, prewash.  The side trim that runs along the car was funktified also.

I think this is moss LOL  No, just more algae.  The chrome wheels had moss on them though.  Five coats of chrome cleaner took the layers of break dust and mossy funk off leaving a shine.
