Heavy Z Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Well, it's been a while since I posted any progress info so here goes... As some of you know, I recently replaced my nwc T5 w/ a rebuilt wc T5 w/ gearzone countergear stabilizer. After bleeding the master and a couple other hurdles this tranny rocks and I love the overdrive(2400rpm at 80 mph )!!! I then spent some time addressing my holley 650dp, jetting up from 67 to 70 in the primaries and from 73 to 75 in the secondaries. Definitely running better than ever. Lastly, I picked up some nitto 555r's in 275/50/15 for the back and moved my 225/60/15's to the front in place of the old 205's - what a difference!! I had to crank up my rear coilovers a bit. No rubbing, better handling, and best of all, traction!!! Any ideas what the optimal tire pressure is on the street? I'm at about 25psi now. I'm heading to the track next wednesday to see what it'll do, I'll let you know how it works out. Thanks everyone for all the help on my Z!!!!!!!

auxilary Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 should be 30-32 psi for the street. if you take it to drags, lower pressure to about 22psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z-REX Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 i don't feel fresh down there either... wow man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Z Posted June 2, 2004 Author Share Posted June 2, 2004 Thanks guys, that's how I'm feeling now that I can gas it through a turn and mash it on the way out with none of the usual dangers. The launches are grab-and-go strait without any sideways walk. I hope my new T5 likes 'em too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 I like the aggressive look or "stance" as some would say (and the plate ). Looks great.....Are those tits I see? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
