Very weird. Factory service manuals all show a 170 degree thermostat for the Zs. Why have we been wrong for so long?

If all the info has been coming from the interwebz, thats probably why. I chase down mislabeled and misrepresented parts almost everyday, its very very very stupidly common.

So to get this back on topic, DE, you don't need a thermostat.

The Z1 Urethane mounts are really good. I have them in my car, motor and trans. My car has a slight vibration at times but nothing too bad.

If you end up going that route you shouldnt have to worry about them ever tearing again.

where do i get one of these? sounds like a fun read/refrence book :P

lol, if i told you, i'd have to kill you.

So... Getting the Momentums tomorrow-ish
TPs for it tomorrow-ish

Z1 urethane motor mounts (held off on trans)
Rear camber arms and tow bolts (sick and tired of tire changes)
Z1 brake booster hose to match my other Z1 blue hoses
eBay'd the 2 radiator hoses


And I just didn't like Z1's price on a PS cooler... For $200, I can hook up my spare 19 row, and it'd be just as cost effective, lol.

Yea, you do not want stiffer motor mounts or your car will vibrate...it sux, my brother did that to his audi and i didn't like and good luch trying to explain that to a potential buyer

Update!
Ordered the headers!
FINALLY! Thank God

What exhaust do you have? Thought u were gonna stick with HFC's? Regardless, it is gonna be sick!

I had HFCs for like 5000 miles, then TPs then stock cats, and now back to TPs

The dealer should quote you 30/45minutes @ hourly shop rate for changing the transmission mount when you do decide to go that route.

I hopefully won't pay anything at my local shop ;)

Honestly, the trans mount anyone could do at home with basic stuff. You need socket wrenches, a way to lift the car a little, and an extra bottle jack for the trans itself. You basically hold up the rear of the transmission with the bottle jack (not raise it, just hold it in place), and then the support bracket that usually holds it up (with the mount you're replacing) just unbolts from the bottom of the car, swap the mounts, put the support bracket back in, and you're done. There's like 4 bolts involved all total.

Headers and Z1 parts are in hand!!!

AWSOME!!!

Congrats! Sounds like the car is going to be a beast when you are done!

I think you need a hubby :wtf2: :)

So confused

Andrew,

It sounds like she's going to be a blast once she's all done :driving:
