Apex Chase's 2000 Camaro SS - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Apex Motorsports · 12-03-2013, 08:58 AM

So I figured it was about time I posted a build thread on my 4th Gen SS. It is a 2000 Camaro SS 6 speed manual. This is not a shop race or show car, it is my personal weekend toy. I do occasionally hit the track or a car show but I mostly just enjoy driving it to cruise nights, Cars and Coffee, car club functions, or just ripping it up around town. Here is what is done so far to the best of my memory. I know I am forgetting some stuff.

Currently installed

SLP long tube headers w/ cat deletes (swapping these soon)
Full 3 in. exhaust
Flowmaster muffler (coming off soon)
SLP center mount exhaust tips
SLP air lid
LS6 intake manifold painted red
manual polished tensioner
ported throttle body
Racetronix pump and Hotwire kit
Braille Lightweight AGM battery B3121
MSD wires and NKG tr55 plugs
BMR subframe connectors
BMR rear lower control arms
BMR 1 inch lowering springs
4.10 gear
LS6 clutch
Nittos
red painted calipers
Hawk brake pads
SLP grill
Mike Norris catch can (switching to Apex when I get a chance to fab a bracket)
Red gauges
Pro 5.0 shifter/short stick

Currently awaiting install

BMR K-member
BMR upper and lower A-arms
Prothane motor and trans mounts

Clean SS chase! Can't go wrong with some 4th gen.

Badass, that thing looks great.

pv-camaro · 12-03-2013, 11:16 PM

very nice

Hey chase does this car have the factory SLP muffler? How does it sound? I recently picked up a SLP dual dual and I'm debating whether I want to put it on or not.

Edit- just saw it has a flowmaster.. Damn

Make? Probably not. But I know a great place to get them from.

Yeah, straight 3 inch from the headers to a Flowmaster. It sounds really good but I am not a big Flowmaster fan. The entire exhaust will get replaced sometime next year probably.
