I wish! I PM'd someone on Motoring since they're looking for an exhaust system for their ZR. He's local.

LOL who keeps saying that I'm getting a turbo??? I wish!!! lol.. Going FI isnt in the near future for me right now, I have a motorcycle that gives me my addrenaline rush for the time being. I'm not saying its out of the question, just not this year or probably next.

And if I do go FI I'll probably go the Vortech route, (Save your breath Aaron I already know what you're going to say lol) I only want to have around 400whp and I'd be happy. In fact I have browsed around already seeing what kind of deals on can get on one, for a brand new polished V3 tuner kit I can get it for $3900, than you figure in injectors, walbro fuel pump, and a utec it will run around $5200..

BUT then you need a new clutch/fly, gauges, oil cooler, and some other misc stuff and you're getting closer to $7000. Than you gotta figure in the price to tune and you're getting closer to $8000. So It adds up mighty fast, and right now I have some better use of $8000 dollars right now. I don't have to worry about labor price cause well I'd do it myself.

If you were around a couple months ago, you could've gotten some like new 19" Nismo LMGT4s wrapped in RE050A Pole Positions for a good price.

Welcome.

I have a front bumper, exhaust, and popcharger intake up for grabs if you want any of it.

WELCOME JON!!! Where in AV do you live?? You're not the only one Me (Greg) and SmoothZ (Dave) both live in AV off of Gardenview. Glad you found your way over here post pics up of the car if you have any.

As far as wheel and tire combos talk to one of the venders on this site they usually have some good deals. But for good deals on tires check out tirerack.com

Speaking of labor, I need to do some major work to the van. Anyone want to join me over at Aaron's garage?

I can bring beer and food!

Hi, Jon. Are you thinking of any style of wheel that might interest you? There has to be a thread on this site with ZR pics.

Been awhile, prob b/c its upsetting with the Z sitting in garage with snow outside...anyways bought a 99 audi a4 1.8t as my new winter daily...fun little car, prob just fix it and sell it before end of winter and pull Z out earlier than usual.
Needs some interior and bumper work, nothing too major but got a great deal on it...and I must say beats the Suburban in MPG and off the line!

p.s. Does anyone here run NOS on their Z?

One of the members, Ben, used to run with nitrous. I think he sold his kit after he sold the Z.

I just ordered the Fumoto oil drain valve. Yay!

Greg, got your voicemail. I must have been outside shoveling when you called. I couldn't hear the phone, and the battery just about died from the cold. Did you mean this one?

Cool, I am debating going with the zex kit...just trying to figure out the actul value of ownership. The turbo setup seems the way to go, but budget issues and a few other areas I am not sure on...of course, Aaron's car was redic. fast!

Will you be using the kit at the track/drag? If you set up the kit correctly, I think it's a good way to go for a little 'oomph' when you want it.

That's not Ben's car....lol
