I will wait until we get it apart to check then.

I am excited to get started honestly. We can get started on the diff, gauges, interior, heater and A/C this week if you want Jake. Get all of that out of the way, then finish the clutch/flywheel and turbo kit. Maybe even be able to get the car back in time to do a couple of practice runs before the first race.

I would love to watch/participate. I plan on changing out my diff in the near future and I would like to see what it's going to take to get it done right.

JLS2GOZ, I'm telling you...with these youngster's...you need all the advantage you can get ( I'm Old ). So anything I can do for the Z to get my times better....I will.

I don't mind losing....just hate losing to myself. All these guys are very good drivers and I just try to keep up with big boys.

I now that that all the mods won't make me faster or better.....but I will keep improving my skills to compensate for with the mods.

I would hope there will be more of us turning out to events and participating for fun ! ...... Because in the end...it is really all about having fun with good company !

Staying at the apartment, throwing a bit of a party. Mixing New Years, my birthday (the 2nd), and the fact I finally got a job all into one party. Huzzah. I got a job so I can finally buy car parts again.
