@@CarGuyV8 were here in michigan my son has a 94 camero exactly like your white one. It's Immaculate inside outside and underneath no rust anywere.garage keep.has a blown motor.will sell for $1200.00. You wont find another one this clean.
Recently modified my 96 Z28 manual. Owned since Oct 95. Beautiful black paint job. Golen 383 LT1 460 hp/440 ft lb; new T56; Centerforce dual friction clutch; Baer Brakes, coil over suspension, aftermarket control ams, Koni adjustable shocks; Watts linkage, subframe connectors, anniversary 17x9 chrome wheels with sticky 275 Nitto autocross tires, & a lot more. The Z is immaculate everywhere. What's awesome is that it looks stock except for lowering. Obviously, I'm proud of it. It's a keeper.
I bet man! That sounds like a good fun car. I currently have a lowered 04 Mustang GT with NITTO 315 rear 275 front tires. TR3650 w/ short throw shifter, 3.73 gears, headers, h-pipe, borla catback, bbk Tb, and custom grind cams! It’s pretty fast for stang!
Awesome man! Be careful and learn the car before testing it out. They’re a lot of fun but can get out of control in a split second. I bet you’ll love it 👍
You're going to love these F-bodies bro! I've had many Mustangs and right now I have a 2002 Trans Am and these are as good as they get for bargain performance!
My 1994 Camaro Z28 1LE is a monster. However simple maintenance like changing the spark plugs is nearly impossible from the top and you find yourself underneath the car changing them. So many senors that it canbe a problem to nail down when they fail.
i own a 96 z28 very few electronics and that is good basic torqui v8 and a m6 t56 trans the perfect maro of its time and today a geat car still i have mine sinse 2001 its been 20 years now ans no way i would ever sell it
Back in the day Motor Trend did an Article comparing the 97' Z-28 LT1 to the 98 LS1 both with stock exhaust while the LT1 booms urgently the LS1 played a more delicate tune even though it had more torque, The setup of the LS1 with the aluminum block seemed to absorb more sound and make it a little bit quieter, They also commented on the 93 through 97 Corvette exhaust which is not nearly as throaty as the Z-28 of the same period ,the Vetts were tuned to be much quieter which doesn't make sense to me.
I like both the Camaros and the Mustangs the only problems I ever had with my LT1 Camaros that damn optispark distributor and it's tight engine bay the Mustangs never really had an issue
My issues were usually the optispark and fuel pump. I had to replace the fuel pump 2 or 3 times in 2 years. Now I have new edge gt mustangs and they’re a lot more reliable.
I have to disagree on the feels like a "rocket ship" i have both a 92 c4 vette and 96 camaro the vette feels more like a fighter jet or rocket ship than the camaro the camaro feels just very roundy and modern
If no key just remove the three 10mm bolts that hold the hatch latch under the trunk carpet. Once you get the bolts out, then you can unlatch it, and then bolt it back up. I ran bout 8ft of speaker wire that i jumped into the hatch release button. So if im by myself and need to open the hatch just touch the wires and lift the hatch up. Just temporary till i get new hatch struts though lol!
The Berger panel meant something, in the 60s and 70s when they were new. That, Berger panel meant big block power.... Look it up, think Matt Berger or his dad was the first. So never was a fan of Berger panel 4th gen.
Can you reply to this post woth the link to the cons video . I love tbese cars id like to see your video o the cons i loved the pros were on the same page i wanna know if we have the same cons @CarGuyV8
This should have been a ten second video. The cons are so numerous that it's impossible for me to think of a pro. Yes, I had one. Eight Camaros, from 67 to 86 prior to owning that 93 piece of utter fucking trash. Worst car I ever owned. You people who like this car are crazy. Don't you get that this trash heap is what killed Camaro sales, thus killing the Camaro? I guess people were just smarter then.
we have a 94 Z28 White, LT1 6 speed, T top, we are selling it have owned if since 2000, new radiator, ac clutch, starter, battery, car runs fantastic 91000 easy miles on it.. Our Mechanic says she is one mean bitch. 4500 or best offer
The 4th gen camaro is not the car we mightve wanted, but it was the car we needed, this car sparked the modern muscle car revolution that is just now starting to set.
I had my white T top 97 Camaro 3800 series for 8 years and love it. Kind of sad I don't have a V8 but then again the 3800 series can last probably into the 300,000 miles at least :P
I have a 3800 V6 powered Firebird and it's sitting at 210,000 miles right now. It keep the miles off of my Trans Am. I may own the birds but the Camaros are just as sexy and will both last as long if you take care if them

I was wondering if I was the only one who though this was funny as shit!! There’s one reason these cars are good right now this is what race tracks are full of to make race cars that’s pretty much it! The new Camaro bodies has taken over the cool street car scene you risk looking like Joe Dort driving this body style around!! Lmao
Love me a 4th gen F-body, especially the 93-97’s! Now, I happen to prefer the Firebirds, but the Camaro is a looker, too! I have a 1996 Pontiac Trans Am Comp T/A (120 of ~200) with 31k mikes, and I freakin’ love it! Plenty of power (the Comp T/A got 310 hp), makes heroic sounds, handles like it’s on rails, and looks cool as hell. And the performance per dollar is hard to beat!
These lt1s are NOT bad motors at all. They have a bad reputation but i thinks thats just because they were misunderstood when they came out and were quickly overshadowed by the LS motor. Of course if you can get an LS do it, but if your just gonna mod a car slowly over time, these are fine options. Ive had one for years and it has the 24x coil pack conversion with 200,000 miles running strong.
Just got an 01 5 speed manual v6. Love it. It's definitely fast enough for me, I'm not trying to race anyways, just love the way the car looks and feels.
these are ok cars. can be fun if you enjoy the torque. ride is rough. thanks to rudimentary rear suspension. to get in and out of the car, it helps to be short, trim, and flexible. if you are tall, stocky and stiff, it can be a workout. keep an eye on the plastics and gauges, pray that they stay working
I had a "94" identical to this one. I added red racing stripes which really set it off. I bought it with 70K miles. It was a one-owner when I bought it in 2004. I kept it 17 years and used it for work. When I sold it 2 years ago, it had 341K miles on it. Still ran like a new car and never used a drop of oil. Did I put money in it? Yes I did, but it was a fun car and not a week went by when someone didn't give me a compliment in it. Even in traffic! I may buy another one before I die..

I bought my 1997 Mystic Teal Metallic Z28 in 2003. A one owner car with 56,000 miles. Just reached 100,000 miles on 9/4/23. It runs great and still gets the same mileage as when it was new. One of the first things I replaced were those not so attractive 5-spoke 16 in. wheels with a set of 2000 SS 17 in. 10-spoke take-off wheels from SLP for $400. Currently running on Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus 275/40 ZR17 tires. I also added tubular lower control arms and panhard bar, larger sway bars, Flowmaster cat-back exhaust, cast aluminum diff cover. Still a blast to drive. I've had it up to 125-135 mph a few of times. No tickets so far.
My first car was a '96 Camaro. Color was teal & had the t-tops. 3.8 engine. Man I miss that thing! I sold it when i got older so that my wife could get the wedding dress of her dreams.
Never owned a 93-97 but I’m on my 4th 98-02 first being a 3.8 and the last 3 being the SS I love the 98-02 with the LS1 platform highly underrated at 335hp and 350 torque mine dynoed stock at 307 to the wheels and now with just headers full exhaust, lid, smooth bellows, ls6 intake with ported and polished tb and 12 bolt rear with 410s is putting down over 360 to the wheels.
Wowww you put 5k into your car and make 53 horsepower. Should have just boosted it, stock LS1’s can take it easily, you would have made a lot more than 50hp for the same money or less, depending on how much you wasted.
How did he put 5 grand into his engine ? 12 bolt and gears ,don't get you horsepower ! Just gets to it quicker . Better redo your math .@@love2fight205
Great video! I have a 94 z28 1LE with a six spd. Done a few bolt on's but only has 31,000 miles. I'm hoping it will become more rare in the near future.

I have fun with my 97. 96-97 had 285hp because of the dual Cats. It's an auto. Mine has a blueprint 4 bolt corvette spec engine with edelbrock lt1 heads and BBK shorty headers.

@@CarGuyV8 the cowl is the part of metal that the glass is mounted on right?. But from what I have heard the LT1 350 and the L31 share the same design except for the reverse Cooling except for that they share the same intake bolt pattern right ? .the L31 has the stronger 4 bolt main block 🤷🏽♂️
Not bad i had a 96 Rs from 18-20. Then got an 02 Firehawk. Now rollin a 94 Z28. Your driving record will play into your cost, and what type of insurance you go with. I have comp on my Z with 24-7 roadside, and liability on my HHR daily driver.
I'd recommend looking into broadform insurance, especially if you own or drive multiple vehicles. Broadform insures the driver, not the vehicle, and even covers you if you're driving someone else's car (as long as you have permission, that is ;)
ChaosLord is that I like what they call a bond insurance? Thats what i had from like 18 to 22. Very good deal price wise, but if you have project car thats important to you, thats where it sucks because theres no coverage for it.
@@justinfbabay I don't think it's bond insurance, (tho I'm not really sure what bond insurance is. Insurance is super-confusing by design, and I don't really get any of it, honestly). I think we're comparing apples and oranges tho. Broadform (or maybe it's "broad form") isn't the level of coverage like limited liability or comprehensive. It just insures the driver instead of a specific vehicle. I believe you can get full comprehensive coverage with broadform if you so choose. I personally just needed legal coverage, and when I switched from insuring just my Saturn SL to broadform, it only cost about $50 more for 6 months (so like $8/month more), which is a lot cheaper than covering two vehicles separately. The most important thing to remember tho... is to honk when you drive by Vern Fonk.
@@CarGuyV8 I’ve been watching videos all day love yours man! I know she’s old af but to me she’s a great car! I wanna get upgraded cams and a supercharger I’ve seen so many people turbo there LS1s it’s crazy lol the owner just dropped in a new motor too but she’s really old the interior is a mess. I don’t know what to do first.
I have a stock 1995 Camaro V6- she had 117k when I bought her last June 2021- 2 owner- want to put flowmaster exhaust on her for a bid of rumble- or better opps? (she is arctic white with those same seats)
About to pick up a 94... Comes with an 80k mile LT1 I'll just have to install it. Should I do anything cool to the motor before I Install it? Sadly I think it's an auto tho :-/
I’d put a mild cam in it. CC503 or something similar. Also longtubes or midlengths. Those two things are lot harder to do once the engine is in the tight 4th Gen engine bay.
Pros: They are bitchin, Cons I dont have enough space for more of them.

How can you open the rear hatch if the glove box handle is broke 🙋
If no key just remove the three 10mm bolts that hold the hatch latch under the trunk carpet. Once you get the bolts out, then you can unlatch it, and then bolt it back up.

Never owned a 93-97 but I’m on my 4th 98-02 first being a 3.8 and the last 3 being the SS I love the 98-02 with the LS1 platform highly underrated at 335hp and 350 torque mine dynoed stock at 307 to the wheels and now with just headers full exhaust, lid, smooth bellows, ls6 intake with ported and polished tb and 12 bolt rear with 410s is putting down over 360 to the wheels.
Wowww you put 5k into your car and make 53 horsepower. Should have just boosted it, stock LS1’s can take it easily, you would have made a lot more than 50hp for the same money or less, depending on how much you wasted.
How did he put 5 grand into his engine ? 12 bolt and gears ,don't get you horsepower ! Just gets to it quicker . Better redo your math .@@love2fight205
I’ve got a 97 Z28 parade car with 45k miles. One of 50 manufactured for the 96 Brickyard 400.
Pros…….none 😂
im getting a 95 camaro soon and need to replace the wiring harness on it. any tips or anything on how to do it?
Just be sure to pay attention to all of connectors and mark them just to make sure you put them back in the correct places.
I'm getting a purple 1997 camaro on monday. It's the 30th anniversary edition. I am so excited so I'm doing my research.
Awesome!! Is it a z28? Auto or manual?
@@CarGuyV8 manual
Awesome! You’ll like it alot
so how is it??
I have a ‘97 RS at 15 and it’s so fun to drive
Great video! I have a 94 z28 1LE with a six spd. Done a few bolt on's but only has 31,000 miles. I'm hoping it will become more rare in the near future.
1LEs are rare!! Awesome car man
Those 1le's are rare man !!! My buddies gots a real 97 ss and its a convertible 💨
@@505racing3 Thanks for the reply! I really love it! Hoping it will hold its value as time goes on. It's becoming a sentimental piece for my kids and if I ever wanted to sell it my oldest one said he would take out a loan for it. Lol. Thanks looking forward to many years of enjoyment and frustration as well. Lol
@@CarGuyV8 IMO

I have fun with my 97. 96-97 had 285hp because of the dual Cats. It's an auto. Mine has a blueprint 4 bolt corvette spec engine with edelbrock lt1 heads and BBK shorty headers. I used to hate autos but after my accident left my left knee weak, now I'm glad I have it.

Nice
I’ve owed a 91. Z28. Convertible an a 98 z28 loved them. Both miss. Them both you. Lt1. Or. Def then 5.0 tpi. In 91 an 98. With ls1 love all. Camaro s awesome man wish I still. Had both of mine I’d video. With ya lol awesome 👏 man
Cons: you can't see the hood from inside!!! Back when I was 16 I hit my parents garage in my 6 banger catfish cuz I wasn't used to seeing the hood🤣
3:47-3:52 so basically you can just swap in a L31 vortec or a sbc 350 gm creat engine and it bots in no cutting up required?🤔
You’d have to cut a little bit of the cowl to make a distributor work. With an automatic you’d need a trans controller with a carb setup.
@@CarGuyV8 the cowl is the part of metal that the glass is mounted on right?. But from what I have heard the LT1 350 and the L31 share the same design except for the reverse Cooling except for that they share the same intake bolt pattern right ? .the L31 has the stronger 4 bolt main block 🤷🏽♂️
Nice! Badass body style , i wish i could get one
i was looking to get a 96’ rs and I was curious about how much the insurance would be. That’s the only thing I am worried about
Not bad i had a 96 Rs from 18-20. Then got an 02 Firehawk. Now rollin a 94 Z28. Your driving record will play into your cost, and what type of insurance you go with. I have comp on my Z with 24-7 roadside, and liability on my HHR daily driver.
I'd recommend looking into broadform insurance, especially if you own or drive multiple vehicles. Broadform insures the driver, not the vehicle, and even covers you if you're driving someone else's car (as long as you have permission, that is ;)
ChaosLord is that
I like what they call a bond insurance? Thats what i had from like 18 to 22. Very good deal price wise, but if you have project car thats important to you, thats where it sucks because theres no coverage for it.
@@justinfbabay I don't think it's bond insurance, (tho I'm not really sure what bond insurance is. Insurance is super-confusing by design, and I don't really get any of it, honestly). I think we're comparing apples and oranges tho. Broadform (or maybe it's "broad form") isn't the level of coverage like limited liability or comprehensive. It just insures the driver instead of a specific vehicle. I believe you can get full comprehensive coverage with broadform if you so choose.
I personally just needed legal coverage, and when I switched from insuring just my Saturn SL to broadform, it only cost about $50 more for 6 months (so like $8/month more), which is a lot cheaper than covering two vehicles separately.
The most important thing to remember tho... is to honk when you drive by Vern Fonk.
...my 95 is still setting still BUT soon... ;) (smaller radio replacement the panel they use to cover space can be used for more switches if needed)
Cons? It’s not an LS
There is an LT1 out there that holds the street stock quarter mile manual record. It whips LSs on a routine basis.
I have had ls engines in 3 of my cars. I prefer lt1. I do like my ls2 tho. I hate the ls4.
You sound like Hosea from RDR2...
Cool video too
U2
I just got a 2001 z28 I love your headlights better I love these cars!
Congrats! I’ve always wanted an LS car, they’re just really expensive lol.
@@CarGuyV8 I’ve been watching videos all day love yours man! I know she’s old af but to me she’s a great car! I wanna get upgraded cams and a supercharger I’ve seen so many people turbo there LS1s it’s crazy lol the owner just dropped in a new motor too but she’s really old the interior is a mess. I don’t know what to do first.
Cool video. Just bought one of these and its good to hear the positive!
Just bought a 94 dropping a new motor in a couple months.
Some guy tried to tell me my 93 z28 lt1 6 speed wasnt a t56
I’ve always dreamed of owning one I’m gonna get one
I have a stock 1995 Camaro V6- she had 117k when I bought her last June 2021- 2 owner- want to put flowmaster exhaust on her for a bid of rumble- or better opps? (she is arctic white with those same seats)
Honestly the only exhaust that sounds good on the v6s is the Z28 stock exhaust. Sounds decent without being over the top
put some zr1s
Hell yeah, they looks so good with them
About to pick up a 94... Comes with an 80k mile LT1 I'll just have to install it. Should I do anything cool to the motor before I Install it? Sadly I think it's an auto tho :-/
I’d put a mild cam in it. CC503 or something similar. Also longtubes or midlengths. Those two things are lot harder to do once the engine is in the tight 4th Gen engine bay.
