Kinda new?

Thunderfury · 03-07-2016, 04:48 PM

Hi there, I've been a 'member' on here for a decent bit, but just never posted much other than looking in the parts section. I don't really chat on forums much, but I have a pretty decent mechanical knowledge, mainly in tires now at this point since I've worked in a tire shop for a couple years. No ASE certifications or anything, but I'm always looking for good tech info and upgrades on my newest vehicle, a 2011 Summit White 2SS/RS A6. I bought it over in Louisiana so the water spots on it were unbearable at first, did a solid 10 hour buffing job on it to remove most of them. Most of the usual. BR Racing coilovers (1.25" lowered), Vitesse throttle controller, QTP cutouts, CAI Inducitons intake, Apex washer bottle and air scoop, BFG Comp-2 A/S's, MRT rear window louvers and catch can for now. Some JBA shorty headers will be on the way soon since I plan on moving to California at some point, so holding onto all my OEM parts for now.

I drift in and out of forums every now and then, so I may make a couple posts here and there. Sorry my post count is as low as it is, if you see me don't think I'm trolling you just because of that, I just never have time to chat online much any more. Lol

For those in the North Florida/South Georgia area, you might see my car around a bit. I'm over in TallaNasty as of now because of work, so if you see one with blue HTR850-style blue side stripes with blue rally sport stripes, that's me.

EDIT: I'll get around to posting some pictures eventually, haven't detailed it much recently because of all this pollen and rain.

CONGRATS on your ride and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, dad's, wives', husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

Welcome! I personally LOVE the white with Blue strips and the rear louvers! Great job with the additions.

Thanks guys, appreciate all the sentiments.

I had previously owned a 15th Anniversary Trans am, hence where the white and blue came from. My 91 Camaro and 2000 Firebird ended up with similar color schemes, so it seemed fitting to go with that on the newest toy. THe HTR 850 is such a badass car and the side stripes are really unique but fit the body well.
