Minimal sound deadening for a lighter car for me plus I like the exhaust note. I get some differential sounds from my solid mounts back there but that’s not part of the CXR stuff. Handling is great but my car has all adjustable LCA’s and camber plates..... may be a bit darty for some but turn in is great and very neutral steering that can be modulated with right foot. If I did it again I would use the new cross brace that ties in to TC area (forget the manufacturer name) then bolt in the CXR stuff on top of that. I run the car hard and have no regrets. Happy with my outcomes. Hope that helps. Jim Thanks for the feedback on this. When you talk about the cross brace that ties into the TC area, are you referring to Apex Engineered? I attached a link below. Front tubular crossmember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackzpeed Posted October 24, 2018 Author Share Posted October 24, 2018 Yes “Apex”. Thank you, I must be getting to old to remember. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackzpeed Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 On the To-do list is raising the exhaust for better clearance, in tank fuel pump and electric power steering..... but I’m kind of out of steam and motivation right now. so I spent some time on my other Motorsport passion... happy thanksgiving to the HybridZ community.

Nurgleton Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Very interested to see how things go with the electric power steering, as I'm considering the same thing down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackzpeed Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 Talk with Edan at Silvermine motors. Great to work with and awesome product. Just saving up my nickels for the his steering kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackzpeed Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) Lots or rain and cold weather in NorCal...... had a brief opportunity to stretch the Z’s legs. Sometimes I forget how freakishly quick this car is. It’s easy to get behind and overcook the apex on a spirited run. Looking forward to next AutoX season.

alainburon Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Your car is looking great. I hope to be driving mine soon, getting closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trackzpeed Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 Not much to report. It’s been a rough year in far NorCal. Record fires last summer, and record snow this winter. Lost tress and fencing around the property and had to shut down the office a few days without power anywhere. Hoping and praying for an un-eventful weather pattern for spring and summer with plenty of opportunity to run the Z. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trackzpeed Posted April 24, 2019 Author Share Posted April 24, 2019 This mornings commute. Z parked in front of my office. Great weather to stretch her legs. First AutoX race this coming weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpdlawdog Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Love the red! I've been debating a color for my 260 but wow the red and black looks amazing on the car! Where did you get the short antenna by the way...mine is broken off?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box5 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Very sexy build. I really enjoyed that last autox video you posted where you slid into that corner perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackzpeed Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 Thanks box5...... didn’t get to race last weekend. For some reason I have a caliper that has been hanging up after braking and didn’t have time to investigate. I’m going to have all the brake fluids drained and replaced as well as clean up all the pistons. Next race in May should be good to go.

If it is a rear caliper and you have the T3 kit with the handbrake option, make sure to check the clearance where the handbrake cable goes into the caliper bracket. I had an issue where the cable would be able to go one way and not the other, causing the pads to be engaged some of the time. Just filed it out and problem went away! Excellent build by the way!
