Looking around to find a "new" ride and was looking at 2dr Blazers. I seen one that was a 5spd and was like wow! no way! I didn't think Blazers ever came with 5spds.

How much power could they take? Like could I get a PCM tune, intake and exhaust? How about a V8? Could it handle a stock one?

Thanks for listening to the newbie questions and I hope I get some answers.

Most of the 2004 and 2005's were standard, they used whatever parts they had leftover to make them, and made them the same price as an automatic.

 

Really? The one I was looking at was a 00
What suprises me is the prices dealers are wanting for them.. There are some 01/02's I've seen with lowrr miles (70/80k) and they are asking $7-9k

I'd really like a Black 2dr 4x4 manual with low 100k miles for less then $4-5k

 

They did make them in other years but the last 2 years are the most common.

 

well theres your problem.. dealers ask way to much for a lot of things. A lot of ZR2's came with manual in the later years, which i think would be the optimal Blazer.

 

Whats the differance between a reg 4x4 and a ZR2

 

It's a high rider or wider suspension package that is slightly higher and wider.

 

Doesnt the ZR2 come with beafier trans also?

 

It very well could, I didn't really go into detail about everything it has, like fender flares, wider fenders, 31 inch tires, 3.73 gear ratio. Stock gear ratio on a 5 speed is 3.42. etc

 

No, it does not. Suspension parts and fender flares were the only area's touched.
