Beautiful car i was a kid in highschool when these and the gta and the grand national and the monte carlo ss came out what a great time for the cars of that era from 1985 to 1988
666mrjimbo just because it has a aftermarket radio doesn’t mean the car ain’t all original. When us car guys say all original we mean motor transmission exhaust etc. radios don’t mean shit.
Though not considered powerful by todays standards I still think that TPI intake is the best looking one GM ever made. So much more stylish than any that came after.
Had this same car except mine was brand new and red back in the day. It was one of the faster production cars on the road in its day. Today there are minivans that can beat the "Magnum" Ferrari in a straight line no problem, lol. Crazy but true!
This car in Red was my very first car when I turned 16 back in 1996. Fun car & seemed very fast back then. Crazy how now compared to my Z06 vette & ZL1 Camaro it would probably feel slower than my regular daily drivers. But still a Iconic car, Wish I would of kept it & put it away in storage way back then
I just turned 21 in 1989. Went up to Butler PA. and there was a little car dealer right before Zanotti's motorcycle sales that had this EXACT same car. Drove off the lot after about 3 hours of paperwork. Beautiful summer day. I'll never forget it. Joe Jackson's Steppin' Out was on the radio. Drove thru downtown Butler....turning heads at every light.
My car in high school 89 305 tpi 5 speed. I thought i was the shit! Loved my Z28 Btw we all wished the iroc-z came with 350 tpi 5 speed would've been sooo nice.
@@edmelungeon2239 a World Class T5 can handle a lot of torque, I even prefer T5 over T56 because they are lighter. They sell automatics because American buyers prefer them. There's two kinds of T5 from that times, the ones in the V6 (non World Class) that can't handle big power, and the World Class in V8 that you find even in Mustangs. I been running my 2000 Firebird with one and a Land Rover 4.6 engine (AKA Buick 288) and it runs smooth.
All the comments about how fast cars are now compared to this IROC with the TPI intake. Does it really matter how fast cars are now? Are they as fun to drive when you can't race them in daily driving conditions compared to how fun it would be to drive an '89 IROC that you don't have to get up to high RPM?! I own a 1997 Trans Am and I want a TPI intake on my engine, speed not being a care of mine when I want those lower RPM thrills that third gen guys talk about with their cars. I will stress this all to you, just because something is new doesn't necessarily make it better and we all focus too much on high horsepower numbers to ever be able to enjoy them when daily driving such cars. When all you can do is enjoy brief launches from green lights up to 50 mph before hitting traffic or going too fast in a speed zone, that slower IROC seems to take the cake when you need to go fast in a newer car to really enjoy it the same way at the same torque level! Think about that!
My sentiments- Perfectly. I had a 3:73 gear and a 2500 Stall on my 5.7 and it was a trilling stop light racer. In a way it was more fun then my friend's LT1 and LS1 in normal driving conditions on the street. Unless you feel the torque at low RPM and own a TPI most get lost on paper high HP numbers.
@@scottsmith6571 Eh, I have had my 97 Trans Am for too long. I love the interior styling as much as the exterior, although she now has an LS style Trans AM hood to finish off the "look" I was going for. My biggest complaint is the engine, I resent having to rev up to beyond 5000 RPM before I can start enjoying the car, I just don't drive that way, I keep her below 5000 and my shift limit is actually at 5000. This is where I did research and since I am happy with my current axle gear ratio and don't want to stroke the engine since I drive her in winter, and since I can't throw a truck LS intake on my LT1, I had to look back at the predecessor intake to the LS1 intake, and that was the TPI! I already have a complete TPI intake system off of a '91 Camaro and the TPI base off of a '91 Vette so that I can use the EGR tube. I just need a machine shop to add material to the Vette TPI base and rework the bolt holes so that it can directly bolt on to my LT1 heads and so the ports will be properly aligned. Since the car is reverse-flow for coolant the original coolant passages in the TPI base don't need any modification, they simply won't be used! Short of wanting a 117 or 120 LSA cam with slightly less duration to mimic my stock cam and paired with 1.7 rockers, I should then have the thrill ride I am seeking for a daily driver.
I don't know anything about cars, but couldn't you make this car go a lot faster by adding to the engine like they do in the fast and furious movies? Or would you have to replace the motor with something more powerful?
I’m not as old as what this sounds like but I loved every one of my Camaros. I had a 67z, 72, 76, 81z28, 86 iron z and finally a 1991z350tpi. I miss those cars. They held the road, turned knuckles white & turned heads
HAD A 91 CAMARO RS RED/RED INSIDE-UPGRADED THE EXXHAUST, CHIP AND PULLEYS ALONE IT WAS A BRAND NEW BEAST. REAL HEAD TURNER-HAD A LOT OF FUN TO DRIVE-GOT STOLEN. IF NOT WOULD PROBABLY STILL HAVE IT-LOOKIN FOR ANOTHER ONE SOON
Iconic era... The auto industry made a dedicated effort to offer cars that could actually corner. Remember the Goodyear Gatorbacks they all came with? :)
not always a bad thing to find a bit rough-then you can do whatever you want and not be judged too badly. If authentic originality, then perhaps yes, much harder to find
Used to love "Borrowing" these back in the day. My good friend had IROC tattooed on his fingers. A cop once asked him as he got caught in a "Borrowed" one, "What does IROC mean anyway?" My buddy replied "I run over cops!" Needless to say, he got his head caved in and went away for awhile. RIP MM!!
The main reason I didn't buy a iroc is because of the damn automatic transmission. All the manual ones I've seen were around 10 grand for the same condition. So I bought a 92 fox body instead. Regardless gorgeous iroc man. Maybe one day I'll add one to my collection.
God I love z/28s. Got a chance to drive a 2015 around a track this weekend. That thing is a fucking race car man holy shit. The sound and handing was incredible. Made me rethink muscle cars entirely.
I don't care if its not as fast as a 2019 Camaro, its still a work of beauty. Ive always wanted a black IROC-Z but with T tops. I don't give a shit if it leaks or not. LoL Anyway, I was 10 years old when this baby rolled out of the factory. Last time the Camaro looked good until they reintroduced it in....2010...? I didnt like the 90s era Camaro very much, but this silver '96 SS with T tops that my moms friend had was a nice car and had some power to it.
Same exact color scheme although 5.7 5speed. My 16yo freind picks me up i was 15 / man that car was a rocket ship to us. We didnt leave any dam thread on the rear shoes. I never even asked whos car it was, too busy holding on to dear life. Ahhhh 1987. I beleive it was factory 235 hp and the Vette was 245. At that time it was big leauge power.
Nice my dad bought a brand new one of the show room floor 86 black t top but they stole it 3 times in 1 year and damaged it pretty bad what a shame 😢 there worth big money now
Needs gas...this beauty running on fumes...As a 88 Iroc-Z owner put the recommended fuel on the stockish camaro, cause we had the problem the knock sensor did not like higher octane on mine...It kept it on limp mode until we restart the car
I remember how the IROC was significantly faster than the base Z28 do to different gearing. I also remember the 5.0 5-speed was significantly faster than the 5.7 liter with automatic. The guidos were always in denial and bragged about their "bigger 350." Mine was an 85, carbureted Rochester Quadrajet, and i was fortunate to have a COMP Cam. It might have been about 275 horsepower. Rare combo 5-speed and locking T-tops. I cracked the driver's side t-top thanks to body flex and a hard shift into 2nd.
I'm late to the video but I hope you still have the car! Absolutely beautiful! my uncle had one, sitting in that car as a boy I felt like I was in a fighter jet! Good on you mate!
That boy looks like its fresh off of the show room floor.
And it's black. Probably the hardest color to maintain on a car!!!!!!!!
@YT User probably a light shade of silver ir gunmetal grey. They conceal dust marks alot better.
@YT User Brown not so bad but black will contrast against even the lighter scratches.
