Hood dampeners?

Illmatic370z 10-10-2012 02:11 PM
Yeah instead of using the factory rod that keeps your hood open , they sell hood dampners that are gas filled and make the engine bay look a lot cleaner then seeing a rod in the middle.

Might sell my wheels for 900 shipped..... If anyone local wants to pick them up for $800 they're yours.... 20% discount from vendor and they are brand new. Jump on it!
I hate you. I'm trying to resist the urge to jump on it. (trying to save some dough)

I heard the hood won't close right?

And which would you recommend?

If I was looking for wheels, I would jump on it. $800 for brand new in box Varrstoen 2.2.2's is an absolute STEAL.

I'll take payments for local buyer... $400 now / $400 in 30 days or something.

Sorry bro, just saw this post.

Not sure how much of a difference octanes make, but since I'm tuned for 93... I don't want to risk detonation since I filled up with 87 on accident. Trying to burn through this tank as fast as I can, but right now it seems like I'm getting the best gas mileage ever... :ughdance:

It's cool bro no prob! Well my first time at the track I was able to hit 13.73, I don't think I did horrible:p... I guess I just need to work on the launch. I swapping out my nos jets for a 75, and filling my tank to go hit the track again on Friday, if i get there early @ 7:00 I could get at least a couple runs with the nitrous.

Those are expensive. If you do the install right, it will close, just not totally. you won't really notice the "bulge". Let me know if you wanna check it out. I'll meet up with you somewhere so you can check it out.

USMCram 10-11-2012 12:32 PM
or you can just drive by STC and check it out.

I should hit high 12's with my current setup especially since I got some decent rubber now. However, I've never launched the Z like I mean it so it will take a couple of runs to find the sweet spot. I'm shooting for next Wednesday!... Hopefully I can burn through this tank of gas by then. :icon14:

Take a cruise to harlingen or the island. It'll eat that gas away. I made the same mistake a few months back. luckily only poured in a 1/4 tank.
