  1. Ross, my point is, that the unit is only setup for 12mm bolt. I have no idea what my R200 is.
  2. ON3GO, your Super-Lite.com link is a no go...
  3. It always gets expensive going for that last little bit.
  4. My understanding is that past break in, they leak down just like normal rings. But I await an experienced answer with you
  5. I wonder about those fargin holes on the floor boards, why are there holes and no plug? Maybe my plugs are just gone...
  6. Shoot, the one I rode in (84?) had less interior room than the 240Z, which is already not much! The rear is basically a front suspension until the very last year, so most criticize is as not being that good, before the Z (many months ago) I considered one, looked at the mods available...
  7. Shoot, if its a good unit thats better than half price of the Quaife, too bad about the huge backorder, hmm?
  8. Definately something to look into, only issue is it looks like 12mm only, FWIW.
  9. "Ed", someone mentioned a possible firewall leak, any thoughts?
  10. I like the Fiero and I think it was under appreciated, as well as plagued with problems. But a 15 second car stock, I dont think so.

    Top Speed?

    KPH or MPH? I'm assuming KPH otherwise that is one majorly modded Mercedes. I remember a guy on an LT1 editing list, who works for Microsoft who has a V12 Mercedes with nitrous, I bet that cost some duckets.
  12. Agreed, but if its a race car, they better at least serve a purpose, styling is a big second to function - otherwise I'd mention that I would not be seen driving on the street with that wing, for harrasment reasons if nothing else.
  13. Wow, that thing actually looks similar to BlueOval's car.

    Phantom Grip

    Try corner-carvers too, from about 95% of what I've found, unfortunately says that its a ghetto solution, and so is a welded rear but that one is more hotly debated with about 80% against and 20% said its "fine" to "workable". Once your done searching like mad on LSD, Phantom Grip, Welded Rear, Torsion, yada yada, I'm getting a Quaife.
  16. If the custom wheel guys are still around, $1600 is what I'd expect to pay, I sure hope they are still alive.
  17. Engine compartment sucks unfortunately, twin turbo, wow. I wish turbos didn't make heat such an issue, then it would be easier for me to play with, but then again what would you do with 1,000 RWHP anyway... Break stuff and go broke!
  18. Just make sure you find the correct torque spec for em.
  19. 245s work great on an 8" wheel if its bead to bead, and about 9" lip to lip. If you can find 16x9" I want to know! So long as they dont cost a meelion dollars

    deadly cars

    Its the driver, not the car. The Camaro had 5 star crash protection on every corner until the rules changed I think in 98. Stick a bad driver in a Hummer and I'm sure they could still kill themselves.

    Top Speed?

    I can say the car is totally stable to 100 MPH, but thats all I have so far. With traffic how it is in my area it would have to be early AM to try for more than that. Better safe than sorry, a little air the wrong way will toss a car over, especially a lightweight Z car! Without some aero work I dont expect to see more than 130, and I dont even know if I have the HP to get over 120
  22. There is a guy that road races his Ford pickup, with Hoosier slicks, its only a V6 but hes actually pretty fast LoL
