  1. Hi Everyone, Does anyone make a carbon fiber gnose and airdam or any pics. of a full carbon gnose? I did a search, but nothing much came up. I have a gnose and airdam that just needs clean up. If there's nothing out there, I will attempt to make my own. thanks, Hoover
  2. time to clean out fuel tank....... still no axles... no gear box.... this is never ending.......
  3. Scrap scrap Scrap. ...... Must keep saying to myself that the car is old.... Even stored made things worse....
  4. crap happens---- sent someone to pick up the gear box and it's not the right one. Lucky I didn't spend my day to pick it up...... sooooooo............now what???! Hmmmmmm...........
  5. Can't get a break... Fuel tank had lots of debris.... Will remove it and get it cleaned up....
  6. it may have been cheaper to just keep the Z running for all these years. rebuilt trans. new clutch, bumper, engine install, 4.11 (and i need different inboard adaptors or an r180 so I can retrofit the side gears), new fluids, modify trans. shifter opening, seat belts, all new fuel lines/pump, header and exhaust (since I lost the header), upgrade firmware for tech3r (glad I found that), new wheels/tires and probably some small amount of paint work too........ well as the saying goes- priceless!!!!
  7. Well.... New fuel pump being installed...
  8. Fuel leak... Yup - all new lines now!!!!
  9. New seat belts arrived---- too bad it still doesn't run... Never easy.!
  10. Building another z for a customer....
  11. It's out!!! Now where's my new gear box???!
  12. just need to add in the O2 bung and this exhaust is done..... I don't have a stock R180 to make the K R180 work...... left a message for John Coffey.....
  13. i agree.... i have to find a solution for the snap in type axle.........don't think I could solve this in a day.... hmmmmmmmmm what to do....what to do......
  14. it's NEVER easy!!!!!! my limited slip is the wrong size for the r180 I picked up. And, my axles don't work. This 4.11 diff. requires the clip in type axle and I have the bolt-in type. I'm going to have to run peg leg for a while....well, I have to figure out which direction to go.....
  15. i know it doesn't look like much- a tip with a slash cut.... we just made it, then polished it to look period correct. But, it just took more time than I wanted and still have to finish weld the last 1/4 of the exhaust...... you'd think we'd be faster at exhaust systems by now...since we build stuff everyday......
  16. What a royal PITA!!!!!!! you'd think it'd be easy and maybe without the resonator and if I didn't have to retrofit a muffler and fabricate our own exhaust tip, we might have saved some time........ SO------ it's 2 1/2" all the way to the muffler which is 3" with a custom 3" exhaust tip. It does fill up the exhaust outlet much better, however...... Now I feel like I'm behind...... didn't get the diff. in!!!!!
  17. Due to time constraints, I can't wait for the correct muffler. This would have been done....!!!! Made a tip, polished it and will get this done one way or another....
  18. that is very nice. I'm near certain that it is the set I lost in my warehouse...LOL!!! I may look one more time. I'd love to see the trans. mount you made. thanks!
  19. 4.11 Gear set!!! Check!!! Thanks to one if the Bay Area Z guys!!!
  20. Getting there.... Will weld tomorrow.. Stainless .065 wall, manga flow resonator and muffler...
  21. hopefully tomorrow, I can dump old fluids, finish weld the exhaust, install bump steer spacers.......
  22. I have no patience. Found a 3" magnaflow in the warehouse.... Using it!!!
