I also had the 18s which gave me confidence in rough streets and really wish I had gotten the runflats. Instead I carried a summer one in the trunk as backup, really reduced trunk space.

Trans oil change

I’ve been having the old shuddering issues with my transmission after doing a 1000km road trip back in January. After doing a bit of research and finding this site got a lot of fantastic information, thanks guys & galls. I put my car into the local auto trans shop as I don’t have any warranty as I’m in New Zealand & our local GM dealer was as helpful as a cup of cold (you know what). Anyway they double flushed the trans & used Castrol equivalent to the Mobil 1 that GM recommend & I’m happy to say after about 500 kms, I’ve no longer got any more shudders & the gear change is more positive.

If you have a printer or have local access to one, you are most welcome to download the part files at this URL-

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3157021

It is a super easy print (even in ABS) and assembles quickly.

So far more than 120 people have downloaded the files.

I'm not sure how many of them actually made one though because almost no one on that site will ever tell you.
Let's see a full shot of that H50 sir!

I guess it’s my turn.....

While that’s a great looking Camaro, they all are great looking to me even though I’m partial to NGM, it’s not a 50th Anniversary Special Edition unfortunately.

All 2017s are commemorative of the 50th Anniversary of Camaro, this is true. They put the 50th emblem on all the steering wheels for all 2017s.

But the 50th Anniversary Special Editions have RPO code H50, which includes unique graphics, wheels, interior, badging, etc.

You’re more than welcome to chill here. Lots of cool people and plenty of wallet busters aka mods to see and read about. But this thread is geared more towards the H50/50th Anniversary Special Edition.

There are posts missing. Looks like we unfortunately scared off a member who just bought a 2017 NGM LS or LT. Nothing wrong with that, of course, but when it was pointed out that it is a 50th year car but not a Fifty, he jetted and took down his posts.

Drove in to work today. Actually I also drove it in to work most of last week, too. Youngest was home on Spring Break and confiscated my SRX.
