Tyler's Stealth RT Twin Turbo to '99 3000GT VR4 Conversion

So if you guys have been following the Facebook page or my Instagram @lexilaron, you would have seen this car.

Even better you may have seen the picture showing the drastic difference between what this car looked like one month ago and what it looks like now.

About two months ago, Tyler was still driving this jolly green giant with two big 'ol centrifugal pumps force-feeding mass amounts of air into the V6 power plant while at the same time looking for a daily driver to use while he was building his car.

Only a couple of weeks into this decision, Tyler came across a Toyota Camry needing only minor work.  He picked it up for only a couple hundred of dollars, did some work to reset the timing and replace some oil pump gaskets, got it registered and inspected, and viola-- his 3000GT was sitting on jack stands in his garage.

So while we work on changing this car over from something like this:

To something more like this:

I'll be documenting his build as best as possible to bring you the best of content on this process.

Tyler drilling out his old headlight buckets' spot welds with a drill.

Until next time, stay tuned to Lexi.Laron.

Tim's '91 C4 Corvette

Hey guys, so back once again-- it is I, Lexi.Laron's main writer!!!  There is only one writer, but still it's pretty cool to scream at people.

ANYWAY.

Tonight my boy posted a picture of his '91 C4 Corvette to Facebook, and I knew he had been wanting to get a shoot in, so I commented on that picture and he got to my house faster than a bat outta hell (not that doing so would be a problem driving a '91 C4 Corvette).

We decided we'd go to Tyler Park in Newtown, PA to celebrate the nice weather we've been having recently and find some nice springtime, windy roads.

When I first got out of the car to take pics of the car, Tim told me he had just got finished washing the car.  This was a miracle as a dirty, white car is a disaster for any shoot.

Here's some ass action.

More ass action from the WIDE angle!

Now, on top of this beastly L98 V8 engine is a Z28 with machined internals.  The owner said that a family member works as a machinist and all he had to do was pay for the parts.  Props to "Mike," the owner of the Camaro.

Big ass brake master cylinder, huh!  Two reservoirs for extra braking power!  I'd expect a sports car to have a smaller master cylinder for a harder brake pedal, but a lot of this engine bay seemed strangely engineered, so I'll take that, Chevy.

Flip-up headlights hiding under the fiberglass hood.

Not a bad interior for a '91!

Then Tim and I headed to a side-road at Tyler Park.  I had the foreground, but I didn't have the backdrop in the field that we shot at in the above shots.  More photos!

PEEDON.

From a distance, she lurks.

Like a tiger, she growls.

She lets out a ROAR! 

 I love pop-up headlights.  <3
 

At the end of the day, Tim's Vette is one hell of a fast car with a six speed and a big-ass V8.  From the blade-like wheels wrapped in sticky Goodyear Tires to the fiberglass body, this is one present day American-Made marvel.

Thanks for reading!
