Kinked_Chrome Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 I finished my conversion about two weeks ago and installed new ball joints and poly bushings. Drove her around easy for while, to get comfortable. Took her out tonight and my first hard run was 14.6 @ 101.3 on the G-Tech. The second was 14.2 @ 105.2. Both were horrible launches, one was two way much tire spun, the other it bogged. I'm in Idaho and my elevation is roughly 4300ft. I'm hoping with some more tuning (has an exhaust leak and a few other little things) and better tires I can get mid 13's on the G-tech. Pictures are also coming soon, although it's not exactly much to look at (except the LT1). Does this make me the first high school kid with a hybrid Z?

80LS1T Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 Lucky bastard! Glad to hear it! I should get to drive mine soon. My driveshaft is done all I have to do is pick it up this week then I get to take my car in to get the exhaust done! Is that 14.2 with skinny tires? (stock?) and is your engine stock as far as internals(cam, heads, pistons,etc) or is it a fresh rebuild? Just wondering how my LT1 will perform in my 280ZX, thats all!

Phantom Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 Kinked, Know how you feel. Been waiting 11 months on mine. Finally got it on the road last night. A few things that need fixing but they will wait for a while so I can ensure everything is fully sorted out. At this point it's almost as good as a cat shot off a carrier. I love terrorizing other cars, even LS1 equipped Fbodies. They just aren't expecting what happens when we start to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
