Yes, they are like the mini struts that hold up our hatch. A member by the name of HarvesterUT or TU did a GB on them not to long ago. Look him up maybe he still sells them. Sure is nice just opening the hood and letting it fly up. One of the nicest, most inexpensive mods Ive done that help me stand out...

Anyone that has legitimately looked into or put together a built motor and TT setup has a pretty good idea of the money it takes to get a setup like this. Based on some of your other posts and threads, you have a rough idea, and you feel it isn't worth it. Well, good for you. If you were truelly interested, call a shop and get a quote for yourself

My car isn't pushing the kind of power that Alberto's is and have given numerous rides to people and they have done everything from laugh, giggle, scream, cover their eyes, to all sorts of strange things


From your other thread:

That's fine for you, but please don't rag on someone because they have the money and are willing to throw that 30 grand down just because you aren't. Based on your comments, I doubt you have even driven a well put together FI Z. If you had, I am sure you would think a bit differently. That is not to say it would make you open up your wallet and throw down the money to setup your Z.

Alberto,
Are you running the stock LSD on the car? If so how is it holding up?

Stock LSD for now. Its been decent to me, but the car when I do burnouts peg legs half the damn time. ATS in the future but no time soon, as Im obviously done with the car for a while...

Thanks,
I was just wondering since my power will been around yours and I didnt change the LSD on mine, Sharif did tell me to bump up the axles though. Your car looks sick fast, congrats.

Thanks. FWIW-IMO axles are not necessary. I ran many times NA and with around 400whp with the TN kit and NEVER had any issues with stock axles, you just have to be a little conservative off the line. When I finally do snap them, Ill be going to level 5's....
