May be adding an lsd in there too... any suggestions on witch on I should pick...?

 

ATS Carbon LSD or Cusco RS if you plan to drive the car on the street more then the track. If the other way around any of them will suffice.

 

Cool a guy from my hood! I made the drive to z car garage couple months ago. Wheres scotts performance? Is it near Great America? Man we need a good shop here in town!

 

My car is sitting at Scott Performance as well. Did you see it when you dropped off your car? Its the silver one with the Volks SF Challenge with the Greddy TT? I am getting build-up.

 

Yea sick ride.... didn't you blow your motor....?

 

Scotts is in santa clara.... Ted knows whats he's talking about...Best place to take your z in northern cali area.....

 

I can't believe you just spent $15,000 either to better your car! To me, the price of a Z + $15,000 = a new car!

If its what you want though, thats cool. Im sure it will be nice!

 

Hmm...that parts list sounds really familiar...

I just saw your Z in the parking lot dropping my Z off to Ted today for some exhaust pipe tweaking. As for dropping that much money into the Z, it is like driving a new car. Just make sure you use that investment by driving/tracking the car. You will not be disappointed. As for finding a car at this same price point with the looks/stares that the Z receives, combined with that kind of power, a comparable is few and far between.

 

I didnt really blow a motor. I just broke a piston ring on cylinder #3. Good thing its nothing major like putting a hole in the block.

 

Yea 15 grand...... but I figure what kind of car has 500 hp and handles like the z for 45grand....?? NONE! I almost bought a new car this month cuz I had a good month... I looked at new corvettes....Drove one and drove an aps Z.. The Z was by far faster and handled a lot better.. The corvette was fast and handled good but nothing like the z....About the blown motor.. good that nuthing major....how much boost you going to run now that your built...

 

probably around 15-16 depends on how Ted tunes it. Since I have the E-01, I can tune for 2 settings. Low setting maybe around 450-475 rwhp, and high of maybe 500-575rwhp.

 

aight, all the SP guys sharing in one thread!

i just finished break-in for my built-up Z, so hopefully get in tuning and bbk this week. with the unichip SP has, you can have two settings as well.

 

Damn!!! I didn't realize that there was so many TT z's around here. We should all head to the Drag strip or something and show these other car enthusiasts whats up. Im thinking a Sat at Sacramento.

 

Thats a good idea but I never can get a Saturday off. Only Wed.

 

I'm off every sat I'm down..... let me know... I'll go as soon as I get my baby back....

 

ill be down for sat

 

Just got a call from Ted today. Looks like my block is damaged by the pistons. Ted has already ordered another block. Looks like it was worst than expected.

 

ah man, sorry to hear that

 

I love that twin center exhaust they had at Z Car Nationals.
