Thanks guys.

If things go well, I may be going the 'corn' route :driving:

Brother
we need an update

Long time since I've been in here. I've been busy getting settled into a house and all, but as far as the Z goes, no big updates really. Been on the fence about parting ways with the car to move on to something new. Before doing that though, I did want the car on E85, so I had that done last week. Car is now tuned with ECUTEK making 552whp/481wtq on 12psi. ECUTEK's built-in traction control works pretty well :driving:

I may purchase a Zeitronix Ethanol content sensor and wire it in to allow full flex-fuel control...we'll see

As she sits today, minus the blacked out fangs, I removed that and went back to blue:

I don't know if you remember talking a couple years ago, I had a almost identically modded MB 370. I regret selling mine. I will be interested in yours when you decide to sell, so PM me when that day comes. PLEASE.

BTW, Looks fantastic as always, excellent numbers too!

So I just breezed through the 814 posts in your build. Awesome car! I especially love your current wheel and tire fitment with the Volks.

I saw some info on your early setups where you were running some pretty aggressive camber in the rear without camber arms, but didn´t spot any alignment info on your current setup.

I would love to run the same offsets. What camber are you running? Also, how´s the traction with 305s and the turbo?

I vaguely remember but I will definitely keep you in mind!

Thanks for the kind words. I can't recall off the top of my head, I'll need to look for the sheet. My front tires are pretty much eaten up by camber wear now, but the rears are much better. The 305s are ok, but the RS3's dont hook as well in the cold; ECUTEK is doing most of the traction work right now. I'll be looking for a new tire to try out soon, perhaps an NT05 or similar. Got some good W's against a modded M4 DCT and a modded CTS-V wagon yesterday though :tup:

Jealous of the TE37SLs....I wanted those lol. Are you moving forward with the flex fuel? I was looking at the Zeitronix kit as well, but haven't found much as far as reviews or ppl who have used/do use it.

^they're G2 :tiphat:

my bad, didn't read thru the entire thread...

only so many ways to make the workday pass by w/o drawing attention lol

Beautiful Z; definitely one of my favorites here.

thanks all! I haven't moved forward with flex fuel yet, running on ECUTEK isn't as bad since you can switch maps on the fly.

Now I'm contemplating on stepping down to an 18" wheel to get some beefier tires...

:iagree: +1

I just went through your entire thread, and read just about every update you went through. Keep it up man! I have some ideas in my head for my MB, but I have to find the money for them first lol.

How are you liking the Specialty Z clutch kit? Im between that and the Southbend setup. Either way, I won't be going with any kit that involves the Z1 CSC Elimination kit after what my friend is going through with his currently and for the last 10 months.

Thanks for the kind words

I love the specialty Z clutch. The tilton race csc adds peace of mind and when paired with the RJM pedal, it feels like a normal car :D
