I need to upgrade my pads/rotors. I run Hawk HPS on the Brembo's and at these speeds by 100mph decelerating from 150+ they feel weak, thats why I have to do this with nobody around. And I just changed to stainless lines + Motul fluid. Gotta upgrade the stop as well as the go....

holy **** dude. that is insane how fast you hit the limiter. but yeah, definitely be careful on public roads. Let me know when you hit capitol again so i can see how fast the 15 psi. takes you on the quarter mile. i'm guessing below 11.50 or so, but we shall see. I can't wait for racing season in march myself.

just to let you know ... he's already told eveyrone his cost for anything will be kept to himself ... sorta a touchy subject ... not because it's outrageous ... more because it's kinda rude to ask someone what their setup was when they've never met them ... if you know him personally he might let you know ... I know him enough where I really don't care ...

I assume your powershifting in this video. Is it safe for your rpms to hit 7500 and 7700 like that when driving. Im sure your car can rev safely to 7 or 7200 but is there any reason for concern?

Bro I'm old on this forum and I no longer own a Z. I got rid of it for personal reasons. I'm coming back to the sport car world in beginning 2008. I miss not having my Z but it's cool though. Alberto knows who I am and we had quite a few pm's going back and forth back in the days. I haven't been on this forum in awhile and I just jumped on here today to see what's new and see if there is any good informative information on here.

Alberto if you don't want to put your business out there if you don't mind shooting me a PM to answer my question please. TIA!!!

BTW your car is one hell of a beast from you going from full bolt-on's except the headers...lol, to turbonetics to twin turbos w/ fully built motor. I ENVY THAT POWER you have now! Love the vid and your car definitely pulls like it can do easily over 200mph if you had the gearing!

Not powerwshifting, the tach/throttle is lazy and jumps when i let off.

Southern-long time no see. I wont get into specifics but if you had a stock car and did this ballpark guess---> $20K+ easy
