RedZ85 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Another Hybrid V8 240Z is now officially on the road! I was sweating bullets when i first took off...thinking about all the bolts and torque specs...did i forget anything?? But Success! Once i get my exhaust installed, i will be able to really see what she can do. As of now, its so loud with open headers, i cant really get over 2500 rpm without getting my whole neighborhood pissed off. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know how that shifter feels, I have the stock shifter and it's pretty sweet with my custom short shift stick, it sometimes doesn't like going into 1st after I've been sitting at a light for a while without a little force, but never grinds, but it's the only transmission I ever drove that does NOT grind into reverse. There are synchros to reverse, I hear them spooling up when I put it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
