Good choice in parts. The B&M should help out quite a bit with shifting for sure. Good luck with it all man.

[Hondafrk]

Looks good man! I remember those days lol, getting all the parts together. :) Good times. Good luck and I can't wait to see it!

[z24sport]

Thanks guys! Me and my father went ahead and installed it this evening and took it for a test drive....mucho bueno!

that shifter looks nice, good choice on the motor mounts. i have some as well..im looking to get a torque dampener like LP

[z24sport]

Those are actually bushings for the transmission mounts...luckily both my dogbone engine mount and the upper insert survived the crash from the other car :nice: I wish they made a torque dampener for the LD9 motor :(

[z24sport]

UPS rocks...kinda. Bummed that they didn't have my D-specs yet, but at least something came! :nice:

[z24sport]

Got it running right again. And man does it feel good...I missed that whine.

[Hondafrk]

Thats awesome dude, glad to hear that shes running again! :rockon:

[Snare Beast]

Good to see your doing much better and congrats on getting the car together again man...I'm always reminded of your car at Dyno Day when it backfired and your mom was standing there and she jumped 10 feet back....I've never laughed so hard in my life...

You ain't kiddin...Eight months seemed like forever!

[z24sport]

Just a little update. Visually, the car looks like the red one now except for different hoods (will be going back to the SS style when I get around to getting it painted), and finally have a nice set of wheels. Pictures should be coming within the next few weeks.

Now I need to decide whether to buy a meth injection kit and throw the smaller pulley on or just be done with it all together.

smaller pulley and meth injection.......i demand it

[z24sport]

But if I do that, the bug will bite again and then I'll dump $500 into tuning software...then I have to try to be smart, cause I don't know of anyone around here wanting to tune a supercharged turd.

[92GreenGT]

I vote to keep enjoying the car instead of adding more stuff right now. You can add that stuff later, thats how I see it anyways:nice:

[Turbo vw]

nice on it buddy nice

[z24sport]

Just thought this was a kinda neat picture. Can't really tell much about the car from it, but I still like it for some reason.

I still need to get Andy or Shane to shoot it.

[L.P.]

Looing very good man, I must have a ride from what I can tell the car looks very clean.

:scratch: Maybe it didn't load right on my computer but the car is blacked out from the darkness/shadow except for the outline?

[montepower]

Project cars can be fun. Especialy when new parts arrive---keep it up!

It looks good to me...i dunno maybe your monitor is too dark.

[z24sport]

I can only really see the outline of the car in the picture, which is sorta the reason I like it I guess.

[Maximuscr31]

THe pic is cool... I just can't make out anything on the car neither.

One of my buds has an almost identicle car to this. I installed the GM supercharger kit, Eibach springs(ride like ass lol), header, and he has the same shifter in a red 01 Z-24.

Nice. Got any pictures of it? I miss my red one every now and then. Which Eibach kit? Sportlines or Pro-kit? Any struts? I've got the Sportlines + Tokico D-specs and it rides pretty good.

[11SECSVT]

Some on www.its2bad.com. Chris Light has it.
