Pretty much!
Found out recently that over the air updates were being used by GM as a new firmware update loaded on my infotainment system while it sat in the garage. The car now has the GM marketplace app (cool concept, looking forward to it being deployed widely) along with multiple news sites apps. The biggest gain was the Pandora app for me personally. All apps work off of the vehicle's own wifi/LTE connection so no phone is required anymore. Pretty nice tech and I had to share it with my former colleague who does the infotainment systems for an OEM. He wants to play with one since it does things that are a few years down the roadmap yet. Now if GM could just make the appearance of the menus and on-screen buttons look more professional, it would be a home run system. Oh and wireless android auto and Apple carplay are going to be a matter of another firmware update since the car possesses wifi capability. Just waiting on Apple to make it work.

Is the Apple CarPlay update hardware change free? Ford had to add a new interface box to the USB ports, but Android Auto works without the updated hardware box.
I did like your system, way more features than Ford's. It looked a little "playful" but not in a bad way? Not sure how to describe it, lol |

Otherwise, Carplay and Android Auto both work on the Camaro through the USB port like always. Haha, that's a good way of describing it. I'd prefer something closer to the look of the VW Group systems, which are more austere looking.

Finally got some numbers/letters for HPDE and Autocross days from iZoom Graphics:
10" height, orange peel edging with silver metallic inside in Nurburgring font. Now I need wheels and tires.

Thank you!
Pretty damn nice when the snow hits haha. Sooo after being convinced that my car isn’t going to be worth anything special for a good 30-40 years, I’m close to pulling the trigger on a set of longtubes and a Rotofab cold air intake to replace the ineffective GM one. With the ported TB/IM and the Rotofab alone, there are appreciable dyno gains. With the LT’s, 20-30rwhp is to be gained further. Also looking at a flex fuel kit since E85 is more plentiful around here. Just need to find a reputable shop down here to handle the LT’s as it’s a PITA from all I’ve read.

It's almost getting to be spring, which means time to start going through the car and making sure everything is still tight. I'll be putting the car up on stands soon to fix loose front swaybar endlink nuts. GM actually has a TSB out for dealing with these on the 1LE/ZL1. They replace with larger nuts with higher torque values, but we're finding out that the true fix is to use Nordloc washers with Loctite. No more clunk! In other news, this was a cool thing to see pop up on youtube the other day: https://youtu.be/wIofaAOayaU

Nice 1LE build up... Love the platform, very underrated and extremely capable.

Thank you! Another 1LE owner on Tristate? You'll have to start a journal of your own!

What do you have done to it? The 1LE came out maybe 3 weeks after I bought my Fifty. I'm a bit attached to my car, otherwise a trade-in would be something I'd be looking at heavily with the new 2SS 1LE now out for 2018.

Interesting info on the nordlok washers and such. I may need something for my new endlinks, they're definitely pretty small diameter studs so I was concerned about torquing them hard like the OEM or Whiteline parts.

I need to head to Fastenal and pick up the eight Nordlok washer pairs i'll need and some loctite to do mine. I also need to order the improved larger GM nuts online (would be quicker than dealing with the service department with the TSB).

I've been doing nothing but working on the house, hard to fit the car stuff in but the house is getting closer to "done" now with the major stuff out of the way. I've put my GM CAI up for sale: http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showth...9#post10089649 and plan on going to a Rotofab dry once it sells. As much as I hate Rotofab's choice of marketing (by spamming the forum in every CAI thread), it's the only one that has consistently shown to actually make some power. Go figure.
