It seems like no matter what there is always a problem with the Z. Finally after two long years I finally have my car running great mechanically! After doing countless things to my car As of tonight its finally running perfect, And I mean perfect! The last problem was a clogged up fuel pump which was keeping me stumped for about a week now until l I hooked up a fpg.
So now, since I have my car running I decided to take it for a spin. My brother is driving a 328i 2003 bmw and where getting on the freeway onramp starting from 0. We say "What the hell, Lets see who's is quicker 0-60" we take off. Were pretty even untill I hit about 5,000. Right as I pull to shift my friend in the car goes "WTF!" and see's me holding my shift lever in the air, As my engine just revs to 6K plus.
I coudnlt believe it, What are the chances that the day I finally get my car running the shifter breaks. I wasnt evem mad. Me and my friend started laughing. It seems like no matter what, somethihng is going to break on this car. This was an after market short shifter, so thats probably why it broke but I got a good laugh out of it so I thought I would share. I just think its funny how no matter what, something goes wrong.
