I'm new-ish!

[3800SoloWing]

Good Morning fellow V6 Camaro/FB owners. My name is William and I live in the rather barren state of Oklahoma. Although I'm 19, I am in the Navy and attending full time at the University of Oklahoma. I am the proud owner if a 2000 3800 Camaro with all the options except the T-top (pics to come soon, as I lack the time and the weather will not permit a good time outside). I have owner this beast for about 3 months now; I had a '95 3400 Camaro before it eventually died after 238K miles and I could not repair it due to the fact that I was leaving for boot camp a couple weeks after is died. Current mods include a 45 series flowmaster exhaust system and a twin plate clutch. I look forward to being an active part of the V6 Cam/FB forums, and thanks for letting me be here!

Re: I'm new-ish!

I'd love to take a few pics, and even a short video clip, but the car is rather dirty. I'm going to be washing it on Friday due to the fact that a snow storm is due in tomorrow, and its a bone chilling 38F outside.

Car description - 2000 Camaro 3800 series II V6
Exterior - Pewter
Interior - Black leather (wicked comfortable)
5 speed manual
16in snowflake rims
100025 miles on the odo
Purchase price - $5755 from a dealer
No known problems with the engine, transmission, and NO BODY DAMAGE!

The only mods that I know of:
45 series Flowmaster exhaust
Clutchmasters twin plate clutch

Mods to be done after my sign on bonus (hopefully I get it tomorrow:banana: ):
SS hood_____________________________
SS tail_________________________________
Black ZR1 rims and tires_____________________
Ram-air intake_______________________________All on stand-by order
Turbo/SC (whichever I find first)
Tokico 1.5in lowering suspension (medium-hard springs)
1.5 way LSD
T-56 6speed Manual swap (if possible)


My 1995 3.4 I had before I left for boot camp was a 5 spd with custom straight pipes I put on the car myself, a venom racing chip, and I redid the intake to take air from the high beam head light area. The only problem with it was the air filters kept getting crap in it. I thought it was a unique concept, but it had its flaws because it was my first attempt at a major modification like that.

My Camaro, nicknamed Harkonnen, as dirty as she is...sorry about the quality.

Harkonnen alongside a Dodge Ram SRT/10 I had the privilege to drive as a valet (6spd manual, it was AWSOME!)

Re: I'm new-ish!

I am at Michigan Technological Univeristy in Houghton Michigan. Today we had only the second snow day in 25 years. It is -35 out with the wind chill and snowing. I really wish it was 38 out. My Camaro is almost completely buried in snow. :(

Re: I'm new-ish!

Hmm...then I guess I'll use the money in the budget to convert to a T-top.
