I recently seafoamed my Z with 105K. I had some smoke, but nowhere near the amount that others cars had. I didn't really notice a change either, but at least I feel better about the internal components and carbon build up.

meh - the only thing that bothers me about shops is that they cost alot more and they basically do the same thing.

If you DECIDE on the seafoam action - just make sure you change your oil AFTER you do it. It thins out the oil pretty good.

I did half in gas tank and half in brake booster line...

Don't worry about trying to master that at your first autoX event........

Forget heal toe and simply use one foot at a time, coast for a split sec and tap the gas prior to releasing the clutch to keep the RPM needle up after a brake situation.........

Aim for good clean runs, NOT the fastest time of the day.......

Car control is super hard to master...............

you can ride with me prior to doing your runs, etc and ill do my best to help ya out....

OK soooooo Imported Performance is digging deep to get the car ready for out show in July... Already have Sparco Seats, KW V3's, and Takata Harnesses on the way. J, I think I will be hitting you up for a harness bar

I am looking at rolling the rear fenders and getting a massive set of wheels, massive in the rear at least. I wanna get some SF-Winnings in gold, BUT that is big buck, if anyone comes across some at a low price though would they let me know? AT LEAST 18x10.5 in the rear.

HKS twins? Powerlab single? Thoughts, ideas? Just looking for what would be a big BAM factor.

powerlab seems like a great bang for the buck and easier install.
