Ordered all my shiznit today from Z1. I got the stainless brake and clutch lines plus all the fluids I will need for that and my oil change! Headed up to CIN Motorsports on the 24th to get it all installed, and for a retune since I have changed my exhaust since I did my initial uprev tune!!! Cant wait to finally have the car all complete.

I wonder if they are going to have to take off your header?

For the price of 161.00 bucks I doubt it (plus 200 for the retune). I did look at the DIY install and it didnt look that bad at all to be honest. It might be a little tight getting to it but didnt really seem like a big deal when I put mine on the lift the other day.

ok, cool. Let me know when you start working on it. You will be my test dummy expert.

My car is on jacks right now. Found a screw in my RE-11s. So POed! They are building a house next to mine and those moron contractors make such an Fing mess. Leaving wood, nails, and screws all over the place. I'm putting the stock tires and wheels back on for now. That will give you guys a small chance to try and keep up with me in the mountains.

Thats a lame excuse. My front stock tire has had a plug in it for well most of its life. Just plug it dude. They said the worst part of the clutch line was getting it to bleed properly. At CIN they let me wonder around the shop and ask questions so if I see something I dont like ill let them know. One thing I really liked about the install is that they flush the system out of all of the old oil to make sure I have the good stuff. If not and I crash on the mountain cruise by all means please sue them on my behave and donate the rest to my sons clemson college fund (I dont know why he loves clemson so much)

Good luck! Hopefully Bobby has resolved the issues he was running into during my tune. Kept losing connection with the ecu. He was pissed that the new uprev release was being a PITA.

Did you buy it or are you just looking at it? Black on Black!

I have actually looked at these ZL-1s myself. It's just hard to pick between this or the 2013 Shelby. Both are insane values but both have there pros and cons.

Matthew · 08-20-2012, 08:49 PM

I have not bought yet. I to am torn between this and the Cobra. I think in the end I like the ZL1 better. I was reading people putting an intake and retune and getting 60hp. It rides really nice but feels heavy.
