Sounds like a plan then. I'm just happy that this car can take an additional 250hp without any "meaningful" upgrades. Meaningful meaning engine or other drivetrain issues... I come from a Mustang...

From what I've been reading on this forum and from my own general mechanical knowledge it seems like I'm on the right track so long as I don't want anything insane.:ughdance:

I hear you on that but for this car I wanna keep it to just head studs and easy stuff if possible. I have a Jeep 4.0 stroker project and eventually an LS3 for my 56 Bel Air that'll give me all the...

FI newb on a rebuild project

I've been lurking on the FI section for a while but until recently it's not something I'd seriously considered for cost reasons. Then, suddenly a Winnebago pulls across a major highway and f*cks up...

I should probably make a build thread. New stuff on the way: Mishimoto radiator, Z1 diff upgrade kit with Whiteline bushings, every idler pulley on the engine plus tensioner, serpentine belt, oil pan...

Thanks. The more I thought about it the less I wanted to lose my Z. I can't justify replacing it with another RWD sports car now that I have a 13 month old and everything else I like is out of my...

It pays to bitch apparently. I'm getting 17k plus the car plus the 2.5k bribe to not sue the sh*t out of Progressive. I can live with that.

Resale value is now nil, so after I inspect the unibody...

So funny story. Not only was I able to mitigate injury by leaning back, relaxing, and (mostly) getting the hell out of the way of the airbag, somehow I also managed to not even stall the engine...

Yeah that's what I found too. I'm asking for an explanation of their value assessment and I may push the issue a bit. In any case the buyback is $2566, which would be dumb not to do.

Shop says over $18k for repairs. Pretty much spot on what another one would cost from a dealer right now. I'll ask about buyback and might have parts for sale in a bit. Or maybe not depending on what...
