C4 Corvette ZR-1 | The Forgotten King of the Hill

[@DtRockstar1]

Thank you very much!

[@fatpatlives1998]

DtRockstar1 in your opinion is the zr1 better than the LT4 option. ?

[@DtRockstar1]

Sorry man, I just saw this. Sadly, I haven't experienced the LT4 option yet, so I won't have much to say. I do know that they used the LT4 in the C4 Grand Sport, which was a very rare Corvette in the 90s.

[@Kyle-c7i]

DtRockstar1 Just to further clarify your statement, for 1996 only, the LT4 engine came in every Corvette with the 6-speed manual. Automatic corvettes got the LT1.

[@Goldcylon1]

Correct statement

[@blackericdenice]

3:25 if a man drove a Corvette zr-1 for 1 hour in valet mode and did not know it. He was not a car guy.

[@sgfreak96]

The story about the normal mode with your friend of a friend...man that's wild. I can only imagine how bittersweet that moment was. 8 years wasted, but also the sheer excitement of getting nearly a "brand new" car in full power mode!

[@MrZdvy]

I'd say that was a BS story, how can you not know about this extra key when you buy a car like this. Cars like these were bought by carlovers so how do you not know this after 8 years when it's staring at you from the center console?

[@MikeDunn]

MrZdvy Agreed. Sounds like BS. Unless the guy was totally unfamiliar with sporty cars and this was his first one. The difference between 200 and 400 horses is pretty distinct.

[@331Grabber]

Wouldn't you get curious about the obvious key slot with "Normal" and "Full power" labeling?

[@mr.butterworth]

sgfreak96 - Imagine how it would have felt to learn of valet mode *after* selling the car thinking it was only “alright”. It’s quite possible the story is true, we all know about guys with fast cars who really know nothing about cars, or even the one they drive.

[@billybrooks7845]

Chevy advertised this mode to all buyers. Could not miss it. Just for valets as advertised!

[@blackericdenice]

@@pontiacmaniac7772 Some years ago I was wondering is the NS really that bad or is the problem just broke-a$$ owners. I've own my 2001 Deville for 2 years now. The problem is broke a$$ owners and stupid techs. I have put 10k miles on my Deville and it run great. Yes I have had to install brakes, front struts, rear air shocks and a power steering hose. Any car with 146k miles will need the same stuff. I don't think there is a NS blown head gasket problem. My car has run hot 3 times. Neither problem was a blown hg. 1st was a water pump belt tensioner broke. 2nd. was a bad water pump. 3rd. was a plugged purge tube. It has not run hot in more than a year. Stupid techs wont find out what the real cause of the over heating. They just say blown head gasket and want to install another engine. If you don't believe me. Watch my videos. I just installed a front wheel bearing.

[@KittyEvangeline]

I think it's more of a ppl dont talk about it. The C4 zr1 gets lumped with C4s in general, and aside from grand sports and zr1s, the c4 is dirt cheap. It's like the most readily available corvette out there. I personally love the c4 tho. I own two of them.

If you have never driven a first generation ZR-1 in Full Power mode and heard the heavens sundered by the absolutely feral howl of the exhaust above 4,000 RPM , felt the G forces compressing you into the bolstered leather seats as you make seemingly effortless, lightning fast shifts up through the gears while negotiating twisting mountain roads with telepathic ease, then you have missed a truly unique automotive experience. Love or hate C4's, this car represents a special time in American automotive history and is truly the first American super car.

Great video, well done! I have owned a 1991 ZR-1 "Black on Black" since 2005, 33,000 original miles. It still is capable of 0-60 MPH in 3.6 seconds and a 13.2 quarter mile. Although only the 375 HP version of the LT5, it may not be able pass a new Z06, but it will keep up with it all day long! These cars are still a bargain in terms of the "HP per Dollar" ratio, but lately the prices of surviving ZR-1's are beginning to go up after years of flat lining. If you want a fun ride at a used Chevy price, this may be the 'Vette for you...

[@DtRockstar1]

+James Carson Thanks for the kind comments James! I have driven the new Z06 and it is fast as hell, but the C4 ZR-1 feels so much more special to me because it's something you rarely see. Speed isn't everything, and the C4 certainly doesn't lack speed.

[@danielfair4675]

James Carson, your not doin 0 - 60 @ 3.6 in a c4 ZR1, they did it in 4.4 - 4.9 depending on the year. Ran the 1/4 in the high 12's in a '95 to low 13's early '90's ... again, depending on the year. Road & Track got 4.9 @ 13.4 out of a 1990. That ran 375hp until 1993 when a head job got them to 405. And trust me, your not touching a new Z06. As a matter of fact my '10 GS 6-speed does 12.2 - 12.4 @ 115 - 118 and its at 436hp. Then again, it does have launch control. And what a Z06 with 650hp will do is crazy.

[@amgheaven9831]

My first car was a 96 vette black on black convertible. 16 years old with that beast omg I was in love with that car like the batmobile. Honestly it is till this day one of the most amazing cars I've ever driven in my entire life. The way that it would corner so flat really is unmatched to this day in my opinion anyways right now I'm daily driving a C63 AMG with the 6.2 L V8 550 horsepower at the crank with a tune and some other bolt ons and the only reason I'm driving that car is because it reminds me of the way that Corvette moved in the way of Power Band and just overall feel but a no way shape or form does it corner like that and to be honest with you I have an experience that car that Corners like that car did. Now I haven't driven any of the new Corvettes or anything like that so I don't know but I've driven M3 M5 Audi's RS models pretty much anything with four doors and over 400 horsepower and I've never come across anything that was even close to the way that Corvette handled. I think I want to start looking for a ZR1 C4 in the next couple months just to test it out just to see what it's like I kind of missed out on that when I was younger because I didn't know how to drive a manual. I do remember my dad test-driving one with me though and it was simply Irresistible the exhaust note was amazing. I don't understand the whole thing behind people saying that American cars don't handle well because to me the Corvette was the most amazing handling car at ever driven. I will say though at 16 years old it was way too much car for me I crashed at several times until I turned 18 at which time I got a gmc sierra and had several of those. Moved to mercedes at 21 and then to an amg at 26. I wouldn't mind having another c4 though thats for sure. Might test drive a c6 Becuase those or gorgeous as well. C7 look isn't my favorite c6 is better imo

[@pgtmr2713]

Your story reminded me of the Yellow 90 Beretta that was at my school... yellow with, black interior, convertible top. If you Google Beretta convertible, you'll see 2 pics. One a red one from a brochure. The second is of a 90 Indy pace car. The actual pace cars for the race were the only convertibles made. The unibody wasn't strong enough for consumers and street use. Anyway the school car was one of several cars made. Some say 3, some say 5. I doubt that this one was an actual pace car from the race, but that kind of makes it more special. This one for sure had a regular 3.1 v6 under the hood. While the actual pace cars for the race had 3400s. Certainly been crushed by now :/

The ultimate C-4 Vette! The LT-5 was truly a rare, exotic engine. At the time a "normal" Vette had about 250 hp. Until 1993 when the LT-1 came out. Then it was like do we really want to spend another $30,000 for 75hp? There was also the LT-4 optioned Vettes that had 330 hp. I've heard rumors of some Camaros getting LT-4s, but I've never seen one.

[@JD-dr9sx]

Yes, key feedback I get from car show visitors and other car show owners, the C4 ZR1 does not look dated, even in 2018 because of the "extra wide" stance of those 315 tires and the very, very cool engine design from Lotus. They see a C3 next part next to a C4 ZR1, especially a 1990 without that rounded front nose, and they see the lines of the corvette car and how it evolved from the C3 to the C4 so beautifully.

I worked at a place called corvettes unlimited back in the 70's. A customer came in with a 1967 L88 tri power. He had owned it for 5 years. I was too give it a tune up and some other things. So I took it for a ride to make sure that after the tune up, It drove as good or better then when it came in to the shop. I found that the car never came off the center carb. I called him to see if that was some thing he would liked put to stock he said yes So I made it so all 3 carbs opened fully. After that it would burn the tires in all 4 gears at will. When I gave him back the keys I told him he would need to relearn how to drive his cart. All I heard was tires squealing when he took it for a ride.

I have a 500 horsepower crate motor in my C4 and it really flies. Seriously I caught air twice.

8 years, I mean at least he got to feel it and it was like having a new car so he didn’t sell it like he was about to do.

[@derpanzerkommandant4641]

I got mine in 1992 and was my most reliable car. I regret selling it.

The C4 corvette has a classic beautiful look that never gets old. A la Sofia Loren or Audrey Hepburn ❤

[@cardinaloflannagancr8929]

No way somebody would spend 27k at that time and not notice. The dealer would have shown him plus having a different size and cut key only fitting that, cmon. Who was the first friend the easter bunny lol.

That lt4 had some power going on

[@AnManHydro]

❤the equivalent to the new flat plane Z06

[@Tommyblueeyes]

Why would it be compared to 80's cars and not 90's cars????

[@rprovasoli]

95 or 96 last year of c4????

[@DtRockstar1]

96 was the last year of the C4 Corvette altogether, 95 was the year they discontinued the ZR-1.

I love this engine , the front looks better than the ealier model.

[@georgiesonymusic675]

I think is the coolest engine.

[@there_is_nothing_here]

It is still quick even by today's standard

Put headers on it and a better free flowing exhaust and it will sound awesome. Port the plenum, injector housings, and the heads and you will have a beast of a car. Or just do a stroker with cams and hold on for your life.
