Default Got a new car! what should i do with it?

i just bought a 1998 RS camaro for $1000, i love the 3.8, i thought for sure i would hate it but i like it alot, its a nice change from a v8 IMO, i have big plans for the car and hopefully i follow through with them lol what do you guys think? and for now im just gonna get headers, exhaust, and a CAI and maybe a 100 shot

i need to redo the whole exhaust from the y-pipe back before anything cause someone cut the cat out and removed the o2 sensor 2, im keeping the cat off but should i put an o2 sensor back in or not? and how would a magnaflow bullet muffler sound? i know it sounds really good on other things but never heard it on a 3.8, i want as little rasp as possible

Nice ride, but ditch the rs emblems. RS was only a gm option on 96-97 and slp rs 01-02.

Also borla or true duals are about the only way you going to get rid of rasp and even then it want all be gone.

^ I'm surprised your eagle-eye didn't catch the 96 and older tail lights!
$1,000 is a pretty good deal there. The wheels and tires alone are worth close to half that.

yeah i swapped the tail lights, the right one was cracked and im definitely gettin rid of the RS now, i wasnt sure if it was an actual RS cause the back one is kindof weird, so without those emblems the body will be kindof plain, what should i do with it?

I'm on my phone and for some reason it's cutting the pics in half....lol. I can't see the tail lights in any of the pics.

Getting rid of that fadded body side molding makes a big difference, free easy mod to do.

Wash it, wax it, vacuum the interior, change the fluids, and drive it.......to the barber shop (assuming you're the one on the right)! lol

I love this car in silver that's the color mine is. I bought mine for the same price as well. I changed the side markers and the front drl housings. I wanted those style rims
