ZROSSA Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Well Mike............You dont apear to have a rear strut bar on your list. You could however inncorperate that into your roll cage. I also think you should drive the thing first, then you can work on thing progresivly so that you will actually realise the diference the changes you make have on the handeling. So, in saying that, i think your next purchace should be "prepare to win" and "tune to win" buy Carol Smith. Douglas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelman Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Mike, You haven't even driven it yet?!?!?!? All that work and money and you don't even know how it rides or handles yet. I agree with Douglas, get the books, read them, drive the car, learn it's short comings and then address them. How can you possibly make a decision about what to add or change before you determine where the weak spots are. I guess you could go for the gee-wiz factor and add all the currently popular parts, but that sounds like a ricer attitude to me. Anyway I'm just joking, but I would drive it first then decide what to do next. This from a guy who hasn't driven a Z since 1989 and has many more moons worth of work to do before the new one is road worthy.

Guest ON3GO Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 i havent driven the modified Hulk yet.. i drove it when it was stock for 2 weeks. ya the roll cage will take care of the rear strut bar. i just want to have the car fully done up suspension wise, because the 1st time i really get on it will be at a race track, its been my goal and dream for this car. i no the short comings as i drive my blue Z each day and im gonna be making my own suspension parts for it to help it out some but thats down the road.

260DET Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Trade the Tokico's in on some proper shocks, like Koni's or Bilstein's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. G. Olphart Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Nah, they won't take used shocks in trade... but I'll pay shipping so that you can get rid of them !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
