iroc differences

i have been looking to buy a 3rd gen. iroc but i have had trouble finding one. what are teh differences between an iroc and a RS with a 350 put into it?? is there an upgraded suspension in the iroc?? what are the difference between them and how much would it affect the performance?

The iroc has a better suspension and also some frame rail reinforcement. There is a post on this we had a little while ago.

thanks man. sorry to repost. i normally run a search but i forgot to because i was in a lil rush. it answered my questions.

Nobody mentioned that the IROC/Z-28 (third gens) all have 4 wheel disc brakes: the 1LE performance package. 2 piston calipers in the front. If you need to but new pads, expect to pay $70 for the cheapest ones. They don't mount like most brake pads.

not ALL IROC's have 4 wheel disc brakes, only the ones that were optioned that way.

There werent a whole lot of 1LE cars produced so I wouldnt worry too much about them and their brakes. They basically just had corvette brakes anyways so the price shouldnt be very different. They are still common.

o and lets not forget, the rs had a rs logo on it and the iroc had and iroc logo on it :naughty:

Ya and stay away from the RS if you want something that will perform decently without spending any additional money on it.

Im selling a iroc:-D all it needs is a tranny, 1500 and its yours, and yes, the white car is it, there is no rust, and t-tops, and well, i live in iowa, anyone who has been watching the weather and has noticed that we have been getting dumped on by rain,no the t-tops dont leak a drop of water,

My RS has eaten up some Irocs and it handles well with some 245 50Z's ZEXIUS =D

mmm....350...

i love how ppl say stuff that dont pertain to the subject at hand, damn newbi's lol. i do have a question for once though about these cars, the front and back tires, do they have a different offset to the rims??? i am to lazy to go look at mine. lol but you cant put the rear rims on the front correct?,

Why would they unbalance the vehicle with un matching sizes ?
If the rims differ , not the factorys fault

ohh ya,as the wife now wants to kick my ass because we need to get going, lol, but i just loooked at my camaro's rims, they are a different space i belive, because the lug nuts in the front sit in a lot farther then the ones in the back, plus, the the 16inchers that my iroc has, it say front on the front rim, and rear on the rear rims, thought i would pass then along

I think the backs have a larger offset than the fronts. Either that or its the other way around.
My 89 wheels are stamped Front and Back.
