This trip was all about the twisty's Moses.. Although we did end up on a few parkways where we stretched our legs

YES Hotrodz yes.. Was just thinking about ZdayZ earlier, can't wait to see you guys and your Z's again.

Right on...what seems the best, just gets better!!! I can't...

Why must you guys torture me about Zdayz next year. You know I couldn't wait already and made a trip back :rofl2:

Now I want to go back yet again!

you got a sick build there bro!!!

This has one purpose Mr Donnie :tup:

"WIN" :iagree:

Good lord, what axles are those, I have been thinking about that upgrade but I want to complete some other thing for now.

Nice axle roses you got there. What brand are those?

They are DSS 1200hp axles, I'm working on getting this thing to hook so axle upgrade was a concern for me.

Nice!

Are you going to have a shop do the spl bushings? If not then I suggest making a heavy duty puller for rear bushing. Mine was a royal pain in the dik. I had it in the freezer for a week and it still didn't help.

Ha-ha yeah I've heard about the difficulty of swapping the bushings out, so that's going to be a job I'll have to let the shop do. Kuddos to you for gettin er' done lol

I was so happy when I finished it because the results were amazing. Night and day difference and the gear whine is very minimal. But it sounds like a race car at full throttle and around 40mph. But my wife and I avoid that speed as much as possible. :bowrofl:

You know I really dislike you right now lol.

I am aware of this :D

Build look great! I hit you up on FB messenger (Moses gave me your name). Just looking at some details to assist with my G37x build.

Haven't posted any updates for a while because I haven't really changed anything, just been enjoying the hell out of it. Yesterday I finally ditched my heat cycled out Advan AD08 tires that I basically had NO traction with (was fun blowing the tires out at 100mph in 5th tho lol). So since its near winter I needed a tire to hold me over till spring that didn't need to be stored in doors during cold weather and I ended up with S-04 pole positions. Well to my delight they hook like hell!!! 2nd gear I still have feather throttle a bit but on up is basically grip at wot. So far they definatly suck in the corners but I'm sure will get better with wear. Sooo impressed with the straight line grip tho. Just wanted to share my excitement and also some pretty big things are in the works that will be made in few months. Going to be setting her up the best I can for some 1/2 mile racing next spring :driving:

Been a while since I've updated and wanted to share with you guys some big additions and changes that will be happening over the next couple months. I have RPM 6pt roll bar, Corbeau 5pt harness's, Corbeau FX1 Microsuede, and Sparco wheel with NRG quick release on order and im hoping to have every thing installed by early next month. Will be doing some sound deadening while I got everything ripped out as well as fixing some of my original shitty audio wire job. Also got new shoes on order (not disclosing yet :stirthepot:) and will be rolling on them when I break her back out of hibernation :happydance:
Hope you guys are having a great start to the new year!!

Looking forward to see the new bolt ons!:tiphat:

Wanted to give a little spring time/pre ZdayZ update here. Finally got all the parts I've been accumulating all winter on and wanted to share the updates. I'm extremely happy with my RPM roll bar and new fixed back seats w/5 point harnesses. Also finally had my axles, solid diff and sub frame bushings, solid tranny mount, Z1diff cover, spl camber arms, arp wheel studs, and carbotech pads installed. Very anxious to put everything to the test soon :tup: just wanted to give a quick update.. Pics with the new shoes on coming soon :driving:sorry bout the big pics

Very nice. Axles have been on my wants but havnt decided yet on what diff to go with. Did you wield yours? Or what did u go with? What did u use for solid tranny mounting? Your pic makes me want to go Into the picture and pull the parts out i havnt bought and been to lazy to do ��

Outstanding Mr Donnie :tup:

-Clifford :tiphat:

Thanks guys!
tturbo my diff is not welded and I am using OEM diff. The tranny mount is Z1, I had their urethane mount already and switched to the solid aluminum. It along with my other solid mounts make for a noisy cabin, basically like full out race car. I like that though :eek: Haha

Rolling out on the new wheels :tup: better pics coming soon

jesus christ loooooooooooool:bowrofl:

Truly inspiring!

Had a conversation with my buddy (hjo1078) earlier and he asked me how the Z is performing with the latest additions. Since I don't feel like retyping my review lol here is my response


I pushed the car hard yesterday and it is fantastic with the latest additions. Your gonna love the feel with the roll bar in especially in the corners. I did a few 2nd thru 4th pulls and was by far my best pulls to date. 2nd I can almost get grip at wot all the way thru but still have to feather the throttle just a tad. 3rd and up is wot grip all the way thru. The car is pretty much exactly where I wanted /expected it to be at this point. If Hal has time I might do some tune by gear before zdayz

Lol, my brothers... it is cool hearing that your experience is similar to mine. The roll bar maybe the best thing I did for the suspension. The car is so planted.

I agree! I was completely sold on it after our conversation at ZdayZ 2015. Can't wait to get our cars grouped together at ZdayZ this year :happydance:

Oh hell yeah! Hendersonville first! And we def need knock a couple of cold brews down together.

Pssshhh... :rolleyes:





That was the sound of all the air suddenly escaping my lungs :eek: :icon17: :driving:

Amazing build. Thanks for sharing

So she wasn't back together for long lol, I'm scrambling to get everything I need done before ZdayZ. I have the need for a rear mounted tow hook, because the greddy intercooler requires removal of the Fr cash bar. So I'm having one fabricated into the rear crash bar (same location the Japan spec tow hook slot is).
