Post New member from Woodstock , Ontario
Hi all, Jay from Woodstock, Ontario.

I'm new to this forum but not at all new to the car scene. I'm a technology guy by day, but my passion for cars keeps me in the garage most nights.

I just picked up a 2011 Camaro LS last week, and I love it. Certainly makes the ride to work a little more fun :)

Here's some links to a few of my past projects

1985 Fiero (sold) - sat in a field for 10 years before I picked it up. Complete rebuild, re-body, paint, engine upgrade, etc.

2002 Toyota Celica (sold) - Bought as a write-off... rebuilt front end and engine, safety system redone, rebranded to roadworthy, upgraded sound system, body kit, etc
I am really a GM guy, but needed a change of pace. This was more of a Fast 'n Furious type build with my boys, just for fun.

Currently in the shop - 1999 Sunfire GT Convertible - replaced interior, fixing sunroof, rebuilt 0KM 2.4L engine on the stand waiting to go in once I finish the brake lines.
This one will be for my teenagers to run about with.

Lastly, we've got a 2010 Chev Cobalt as the grocery getter and a 2009 For E350 12 seater as my family hauler.

Anyhow, I was active for a long time in the Pontiac Fiero and Toyota forums and car clubs, look forward to meeting a few of you folks!

Hey Jay, Welcome to CCFBG!

Nice ride buddy, enjoy it and look after it ! it certainly makes the drive to work more enjoyable!

Lots of mods out there for a V6, I would say stay away from the exhaust mods unless you like the Honda sound but I'm assuming you don't thus why you bought a Camaro.
The less expensive cold air kits work just as well as the more expensive ones and actually wake the car up a little.

if you have any questions, just ask were here to help!

Mark

Right on, guys thanks! You read my mind. I'm loving the car as it is and not in much hurry to mod this one besides maybe a CAI. I have an old Aem CAI in my shop I was thinking I might modify to see if I could make something work. Otherwise, no loss :).

There's not a spot of rust on this thing so it will be babied!

I've be away on business all week, on the train home now. I miss my family, and can't wait to drive my car again.
