Re: Car and Driver 0-150-0 2023
Definitely outstanding that the LPE ZR-1 still holds up so well. I think the C8Z could have done better if 5th & 6th gear were optimized better for performance.

Re: DRM coilover height for best ride
Adjusted the rears up some more, I'm now right at 5" to the frame rail in front and right at 5.25-5.5" at the rear. The ride is better but still has some bounce, but nothing near as bad as it was...

Re: DRM coilover height for best ride
Not sure on the spring rate, they seem fairly soft and if I remember correctly 425/250 was the common spring rate for DRMs. The problem with going too low is the car becomes really "bouncy" on...

Adjusting the ride height on my new to me Admiral Blue ZR-1 with DRM coilovers and FX3 shocks. Any suggestions for best height for good ride comfort? Scott had it super low, which looked great, but...

Re: I'm back with an Admiral Blue ZR-1
There's just something about the ZR-1. I love our C8 HTC, but I need something with a manual and that's a little noisy/rowdy. Something that's an event to drive. And speaking of drive:...

Re: I'm back with an Admiral Blue ZR-1
It is Dave J's old car. He sold it to someone else, and they did it as part of a trade to Scott for another one.
Needs the speedo gear for the 4.10s, and I may want to change the wheels from the...

Re: Highest Mileage C6Z?
I'm about to turn 70K miles on mine and it's still going strong. As far as I know, it's still on the original brakes. I recently saw a post on CF about a C6 ZR1 for sale that was something like...

Re: Hittin the back roads.......
I can't speak for WydGlydJim, but I'll give you my impressions. The C6 ZR1 is the perfect blend of modern enough to be used as a daily driver (not that I do), while still having a raw, analog feel. ...

Re: Loose headliners
You're probably better off asking this over on Corvette Forum dot com. This is a ZR1 forum, and there weren't any convertible C6 ZR1s.

Re: NCM INSURANCE
I have them and have been very happy with them. Great rates comparable with other classic car insurance and they have specific clause that you can drive it to work occassionally.

The time has come to pass on the ZR-1...
Sold my Steel Blue 391 ZR-1 tonight to a fellow forum member Chris Scheib. I really enjoyed owning it, but it's time to make room in the garage for other options. I still have a 2012 Carlisle Blue...

Re: fuel pump question - which is primary
Both pumps were changed in in 2017 and have less than 6K miles on them, and 2nd pump definitely works good (had pulled pin from ECM so it was running full time when I realized primary was acting up)....

That's a lot of money for what's essentially an appearance mod. You can already fit 345s under the stock rear fenders (don't think there's really any wider tire available). I knew a guy with a...

Re: my 2009 ZR1
C6s in general are pretty reliable, and the ZR1s probably more so. They also take really well to "light" mods. Since they are forced induction, all you really need is a pulley change and tune to...
