depending on what year your Z is, the viscous came stock late 05-06. I was running the stock viscous LSD with twins, motor wasn't built yet. It handled the power o/k, kind-of a one wheel wonder around corners, and I couldn't leave the famous back to the future tire marks. I had the 2-way Carbonetic put in last year. Almost night and day, the back end is really easy to kick out-sometimes to easy. Achieved back to the future tire marks. I don't know if that helps but as fare as traction I would compare a posi-rear end to a limited slip, that is the difference.

 

This mesh for my Nismo V2 sucks...

 

Yes sir this does help. As we will have a 40r we will need moar traction so i think we shall try this

 

Cool, if you need more info about the LSD's I will try and help. if I wanted to drag my Z I would need slicks/drag radials. I have PS2's & R1's on last year, the PS2 would brake loose at 4500 rpm's, the R1's would skip/hop really badly on 3000 rpm's launches and brake loose at 5000 rpm's. I had the same problem with my 944(different rpm's) 26' tire on a 15 inch rim. MT-Et/Street with 15psi sure helped that.

 

I want to use some mesh to deter rocks from denting up my intercooler, what type of mesh, why does it suck, and if and deed it does suck, can you tell me where I could pick some up at?, that doesn't suck

 

bastid!

Nice pics, Steve. Finally, your car is clean! However, your engine isn't as clean as that Z32!
I've been thinking that for a long time. Maybe Steve is grooming his daughters...

ORLY?
Should have asked me first... I could have steered you in the right direction.

Custom Car Grills

 

Ya rly im either having doug and guy do it or i am buying a forged preformance short block im leaning towards FP but we shall see what i will do when i get theor quote

 

I think we need to have a chat sometime. I think I may be able to learn a thing or two from you.

I did a full price out of my build today as well and it will be cheaper than i thought so it may be done sooner than i thought as well. Also are we still going to F&F3 on friday?

Thanks, Nick. I am pretty much a dumb a**, but I do have some experience with the Z gladly help. Zivman knows his sh** you could ask him just to be sure. And good luck with engine, it wouldn't be needed but it helps

 

Thanks for the link Dave, in MI to sweet! faster shipping time.

 

Im thinking i will need it for the numbers RS is exoecting me to put down

 

DON'T use DG.....
I used them on my motor. they were to do the machining and they were 'supposed' to assemble the motor. they are complete idiots, quoted me 2 weeks, and it was there for 12! They didn't assemble it. In fact, they never even opened the shop manuals they requested from me.... They talked a HUGE game about how good they were and in the end, couldn't figure out how to put the motor together..

Some of the highlights:
They were to put JWT springs and shims in the heads. They call me one day asking about the springs I gave them in a bag labeld 'JWT'..... hmmm I said, ummmmm those are the new springs for the heads; the reply I got was, "well, I guess those will have to be redone"

They gave me a full quote WITH assembly included. They somehow managed to go 25% over the quote without assembling the motor

Then there was the lack of communication.... don't even get me started on that

Long story short, if you are building a 4 banger honda motor, or a built ford windsor, they might be the shop for you. If you are building a VQ, go to another shop. In the future, I will be using headwerks in bloomington

 

Thanks for the compliment

 

Omg guess what I'm gonna do!!!














Shovel snow...

 

LMFAO, no snow here in Apple Valley

 

You guys got lucky.

Looks like quite a bit of accumulation atm. I'll let you guys know how much when I get back in.

 

We had some downtown which melted right away.
Waiting anxiously!

 

So is anybody really wanting to get together this Friday for F&F?

 

I would be willing just give me a time and place
