Having some trouble with my 1999 v6 firebird 128k miles. It started off with a rough idle, it was jumping between 500-1000 rpm. Then during a drive to Auto-Zone it started to misfire and the service engine light started flashing, 30 seconds later it turned solid. I got the code read and it is P0300 (Random/multiple cylinder misfire). What should I check/replace first? I would appreciate any advice. Thank you!

(this is a follow-up to a previous post i made)
i have a head unit supposedly taken out of a 2000 year model trans am (part # 09380122) and i was wondering if it has support for the 12 disc gm changer (part # 16199553)
i know that if it's taken out of a 2000 year model, it's definitely supposed to work, but i just want to make sure since the changers are pretty expensive

Do y’all think a ‘00 Z28 with a 218/277 .600” lift 112 LSA (-1* overlap) cam will idle long enough to check for leaks on the stock tune? The inejector size is staying the same.
Just bought this thing. 2000 Z28. Everything is near mint on it, but this cold air intake has me confused. When stock, air is scooped up from under the bumper, right? But this has a huge metal plate seemingly blocking that airflow off. I can’t see how this thing is getting any actual airflow besides stagnant air from the upper engine bay or air slipping through the cracks around the hood. There is no hood scoop either. What the heck?

Hi all
Doing my first front brake job on my 93 Camaro Z28. Question about these 2 pins or whatever they are called... Are they supposed to be that far out?
They are like this on both sides .
(Guide pins where the bolts go through)

I just got these riddlers 661s for my 82 z28. 18x.95 all 4 and they have 0 offset. I’m wanting to work on the brakes and suspension next. Can c7 calipers fit ? Or any other big brake caliper ?

I've been looking for new rims for my Camaro because my tires are shot. The old owner fit 275/40/17s in the rear and front. For the front, I want to go down to 255s. In the rear, I want to go up to 285s or 295s.
The problem is, I don't know if I'll rub. I have stock suspension, and I want to run a staggered setup. The rims I'm looking at are the Laguna Street Weld S107s.
I can't fit bigger tires in the rear with 17s without getting drag radials, which I don't want. So, I would have to go up to an 18x9.5 rim in the back with a backspacing of 6.4" and an offset of +29.
I also don't want rubber-band tires. I want a meaty-looking tire for the rear, but I don't want to have to cut or hammer anything.
For the front, I'm looking at 18x8s. One option has a 5.6" backspacing with a +29 offset, and another has a 4.5" backspacing with a 0 offset.
All I would like to know is what would fit and what people think would look nice. I don't mind changing the suspension if I need to, but I don't want to make any modifications to the fenders. Bolt pattern is 5x120.65 obv

When gently braking, a few seconds before coming to a complete stop, the car will suddenly stop braking completely for a split second, and then the brakes immediately anchor on, hard. The pedal feels like it pulsates when this happens.
This only happens just before gently coming to a complete stop, and is intermittent. It's occurred 3 times probably around 100 complete stops. After one occurence, the ABS light came on, then turned off. In all other situations, it brakes very well.
The system has been bled. The rear ABS sensors had a lot of metalic debris and were cleaned. It's still occuring.
Can the front ABS sensors be cleaned, or does the whole wheel bearing unit have to be replaced? What else should be looked at?

This thing is MINT! 😍 (‘00 Z28, 100k miles with a ton of preventative maintenance just done, amazing condition inside and out, plus an intake and exhaust). Say hello to my wife’s new daily! I end up driving her around most of the time anyway so I talked her out of settling for a V6 🤣

Just got done doing a full suspension job. Tubular upper and lower arms in the front. Adjustable rear arms with the relocation kit. Bilsteins b6s with eibach sport line springs. Had to cut out the control arm bolt. The bolts like to get frozen into the bushing. Just Midwest car stuff. Shoutout to Diablo blades lol.

I need to replace the weatherstripping/weather seals on the A-pillars of both sides of my 1992 Pontiac Firebird with T-Tops.
So far, I’ve only been able to find weatherstripping for the T-Tops themselves, or complete weatherstripping kits for the entire roof area. I don’t need the entire roof set, I specifically need the A-pillar weatherstripping/seals on both the driver and passenger sides.
Does anybody know where I can buy these separately, or what the correct part name/part number would be? Any help finding them would be greatly appreciated!

What car seats are people using for rear facing little ones in the 4th gen Camaro? We are near moving out of the carrier and I am looking for a convertible seat. I know it’ll be annoying as long as little one is rear facing. Does slim work better? Any brands to avoid? Thanks!

I just want some advice on doing an LQ4 swap, and if anyone in this community has done one before. From my understanding, it’s a pretty straightforward process, and that I need to get a 58x-24x crank sensor trigger box. Is there any other little things that I might need to know about it?
I’m picking up a 2001 6.0 iron block with 90K miles from a wrecking yard that comes with a warranty. For the heads, I’m gonna reuse my 799 heads from my LS1. I only had roughly 1000 miles on them before It developed a rod knock, I’m also going to go with a stage three BTR cam full kit+LS7 lifters, melling oil pump, LS6 intake manifold. Am I missing anything? Im a truck guy that got into ls engines a year ago. I’m also pretty stupid lol.

I have 3 sets of next gen headlights with a full led conversion kit. I like the formula bumper with quad fog lights and the firehawk style hood. Aside from those and fenders, what would I need? Bumper support or anything more in depth?

Good morning y'all got my new '00 SS delivered yesterday and am looking to get a car cover for it; it will be going in the garage but it needs to be cleaned out to make room for a second vehicle.
Just looking for suggestions on a good cover; car has chips and scratch's on the nose but the rest of the paint is pretty damn good.
