I bought a 2014 Z28 Camaro!!

[@isnowyazn]

The subtle wide-body of the Z28 gets me every time, appearance wise… I know the OEM parts are kinda hard to find, but I guess if you want to drive and enjoy the car to your heart’s content, then they still have some aftermarket replacement parts options out there.. The OEM 5th gen Camaro Z28 wheels and rear exhaust diffuser are so sought after, most people with the 14-15 SS 1LE (either 1SS or 2SS) love the rear bumper valence/trim and the quad exit exhaust. The vented hood on the 14-15 SS 1LE, as well as the front bumper splitter and rear trunk spoiler (with wicker bill), is what I’d love to eventually put together on my 2010 2SS (unless I manage to get ahold of a 2013 or 2014-15).

[@freemaysin5088]

I had a 15 ZL1 and I loved it, but was too much for a daily vehicle. Love the Z28!

[@dougb3740]

Congratulations on your purchase!! I have a 2015 and I love the car!!

[@josephgaeta3531]

Nice new car, I feel sad about your project car because it was almost ready to go. I have a personal appreciation because I've been working on my firebird for 25 years hahaha and I bought the same stuff as you except Holley EFI I think you've helped me with mine. I did mine before I watched your channel so it made me confident, oh I have the torquehead

[@Batman_992]

Congrats 🎉 enjoy brother

[@Pitchpullin5]

Good for you man. I was just looking at one today myself

[@yung829]

Such a beautiful beast, I've been lucky enough to see one of these in black in person and honestly I think gray looks better. Definitely a looker🔥🔥

[@Devon_Lewis]

Thanks man!! Ya I love it so far!!

[@paulc858]

Nice Z and congrats. Good luck finding anything OEM on the Z. Somebody is hoarding them parts. Front splitter, carbon rotors, brake pads, whicker bill, rims, intake covers, list goes on and on. Enjoy the ride dude!

[@isnowyazn]

I haven’t looked it up, but isn’t there some way you can downgrade the pads and rotors on the stock Z28 brake calipers? I know the OEM brake parts are some super pricey 2-pc GM Performance rotors, and some kind of GM Performance or Brembo OEM pads; but there has to be some kind of alternative, I’m sure… You might not be able to get it back to 100% OEM shape for the specific stuff, like the wide-body or carbon fiber body parts; but the other non-discontinued parts usually have some form of replica aftermarket replacements.

[@Joshua932-l2c]

Love the New Camaro Only new car I would buy today 10/10 💪💪

[@Devon_Lewis]

Same! I was wanting a C6Z but couldn’t find one! Then I found a procharged C7 I almost got, but then I seen this and I was sold!

[@americanosbadassius9292]

The head's on the Z28 are different than the ones that came with the C6 ZO6. Also, the lifter problem on the 427s did not span all years that the ZO6 was in production.

[@Devon_Lewis]

Sweet!! That’s good to know!

[@isnowyazn]

Do you know what the exact differences would be, besides the engine heads or top end engine parts?

[@ChuckBeefOG]

@@isnowyaznI think they just corrected the valve guide issue. The engine is basically the same.

[@Superkid778]

You can add the console gauges pretty easy.. the wiring should be there.. awesome car and congrats

[@Devon_Lewis]

Thanks man! Ya I’ll look into it! Just a lot of money to not have a gauge for the oil psi lol

[@bobforpples]

The only problem with peeling off the wrap, is that once you go black, you’ll never go back.

[@mitchford4821]

Proud of you Devon!! Love it.

[@SunrayTelevision]

Congrats bro!!!

[@ZxTHEJAILOR]

I worked for a chevy dealer in 2014-2015 drove a blacked out z28 and have never wanted to take a car home so bad. Besides my uncles 70 Z28 this is my number 2 dream car.

[@jorgejefferson8251]

I have a 5th gen 2011 base model SS, that did not come with the factory four gauge pack, but it was pre-wired for it, and was an easy plug and play retrofit.

[@Devon_Lewis]

Ohhh gotcha! Ya hopefully this is pre wired and I’ll get the gauges!

[@hvt-01]

Still looks nice bro bro dope color wrap and car

[@thewanderer899]

2:27 they don't have lifter issues, its the valve guides that go bad over time which can lead to valve dropping and destroying your ls7. still a awesome car

[@Devon_Lewis]

@@thewanderer899 I know just while I was recording idk why I said lifters

[@phantom_cutfilm2ss]

The wicker bill will make it look much more aggressive. Sick camaro bro!

[@mud911]

Great pickup man!

[@patbrooks626]

The lifter problems were in the very early motors. It was fixed in about 2010 I believe.

[@aldojimenez4487]

Congrats !! 👏👏

[@mattbradley4631]

Should be a mode button on the turn signal switch that you can push until you get to performance mode and it will show you the oil pressure and a few other things

[@Devon_Lewis]

I’ll check it out when I get home! Didn’t even look in that area 😂

[@mattbradley4631]

My 1LE has the track info on the middle screen of the dash I’m pretty sure the Z28 is the same way. Nice car by the way

[@brendadoran7201]

Sounds awesome.you can add gauges,I have seen them.congratulAtions

[@koalaluv6894]

Why does the front bumper lip suck ? Do you know how many times you'll scrape that. Thank the plastic

[@Zay-X]

man I been eyeing that car for a min it was right down the street from me. if you sell it let me know 👍🏿

[@FlowTieGuy]

How much was it. I like the carbon on it

[@torqueracingproduction]

So much carbon, love it.

The headlights are gonna be a problem because to get HID ones with the halos are like 1500 for the set

[@Devon_Lewis]

The Z28 spoiler lol

I think I will! Or may get it re wrapped! But the same color!

[@mikeriv60]

Nice, i thought i seen a Z/28 with steel aftermarket rotors ??? Could that be true because those carbon fiber ones of insanely expensive.

[@Devon_Lewis]

Either it was a clone, or someone swapped out the brakes. Which I never understood that if you buy the car it’s for the performance of the car and the brakes on the z28 is one of the key performance parts of the car! They also should last the life of the car unless you’re tracking it all the time lol

[@mikeriv60]

@@Devon_Lewis Gotcha, when I seen it I was like..wtf 😂 Well I hope they last form your sake lol

[@jaden.sanderson]

If I recall you can add those SS gauges to any 5th gen Saw a guy add one to his V6 RS, it's plug and play

[@Devon_Lewis]

Yep I seen that video! I’ll probably do the same!

[@djgoodot]

Plus the z28 comes standard with gm direct cold air intake, the wires could be there for fog lights maybe since they got deleted on those, I mean the options are limitless with this but if you got it outright that’s one thing but if it’s on a loan that’s another you can’t change a whole lot, just basics but I’m pretty sure you know that already, bro I’ll do anything to help ya out just because a friend of robs is a friend of mine and you can guarantee I can put you in the right direction on how you wanna do some things, like why not get the LED brake lights instead of the halogen ones??? They look ten times better and better then the aftermarket ones that have the 6th gen look but have a delay on the electrical system… I’m a wealth of knowledge when it comes to these cars and I wanna help ya out as much as possible

[@Devon_Lewis]

Thanks man! Ya I’ve been looking at tail lights and stuff all day 😂 there is so many options! I’m not used to this, because everything custom on my 93 I had to hand make. Everything I want for this car is already available!

[@djgoodot]

@@Devon_Lewis I got you on Instagram

[@djgoodot]

What kind of deal did you get with how many miles??? You can add in the factory 4 pack gauge cluster in the console for like 150 bucks I am pretty sure… I can help with that instead of trying to add on other aftermarket stuff you can get the direct gm stuff pretty cheap, it’s the cable plus the gauge cluster that’s all, secondly why didn’t you go with a ZL1 of this era? Only because you wanted the bigger motor? I’m interested to hear this one, I think ole mr pitts has been paying you too well lmao, I’m only kidding bro…

[@Devon_Lewis]

I’ll look into the cluster! Also I forgot they even made these 😂 but come to find out they only made about 500 of the 14 models! Also I love being different and I know not a lot of people have the Z28! Also I’m from way back in the boonies where it’s all curves and back roads so I wanted something that could hang a curve!
