Looks very nice! I am going to contact your wheel place and see if they will widen my firehawk wheels!

 

wow that has to be the meanest looking z i have ever seen. Love the color, the wheels, the tires, i love all of it lol

 

you actually think i need lt's and a stall jeff? i was only 12 hp less than you before the manifold and tb . . . the manifold adds 10-15 rwhp by itself, when it's stock not ported anyway. bring your z this saturday and well run em

 

I think you are getting your hope up, hp wise with that manifold..... don't claim numbers till u dyno, u never know what ur gonna get.

Also, the stall soaks up peak hp, but don't let it fool you, it makes the car faster. This saturday is the bbq man. I'm going to the track soon, lets line em up there, loser buys the drinks. Enough now. durka durka.

 

Sweet man, they are pretty cool. Talk to James, he handles all the widening stuff. Make sure you get a set of wheel adapters, NOT spacers!

If you are gonna go 11" (why would u go smaller? ) you will need 1 1/4" adapters, with no change from the stock bolt pattern. These guys have the ones you need.

Its from the Eastwood Co. I borrowed it from someone nearby who was kind enough to lend it to me.

Yeah, it doesn't line up very well, I got it used, already painted, and saved many hundreds of dollars....so it doesn't bother me.

 

I'm digging the tires and how long did it take you to change the front?

 

assuming i can pick the drink IF i lose i'm down

 

Thanks.

Change the front? you mean the suspension? It took all day and then some, since the bolts were frozen.

 

If you don't mind me asking, about how much did you have in both the wheels? I talked to a different company about a year ago and they wanted $225 per wheel (also to fix some minor curb rash).

 

they fixed some of my curb rash, no charge.

 

those rear wheels look great, your car has a good stance, just low enough but not so low scrape everything, nice work!

 

i love the stealthy/aggressive (lets pretend that makes sense) look of widened factory wheels. Very cool

 

Clean car! I like the new wheels!

 

One word=WOW

 

Man what a lot of work!! Did you do all that in one shot or did you do this over time? How long was the car down? Looks really great!!

 

The car was down for 1 day for suspension. I was driving around on some borrowed wheels while I was waiting for my widened ones to come back, that was embarrassing for 3 weeks. haha. Did the detailing over 2 days. And it was down for 1 more day when i did the wheels and fender rolling. All of it was spread throughout about a month. Thanks!

 

I normally dont like ground effects but I think your car looks great

 

I think your car looks great! I've been thinking of doing the same thing to some SS wheels and chunking my TT IIs. Everyone has these wheels already. No everyone keeps their stock wheels. I've always liked them just have been waiting for some wheel reproduction company to make them in 17x11 or 17x10.5 I like the GFX package. Looks good with the SLP hood. There's another hood I'm also considering. Probably wouldn't have to wait forever to get it either.

 

Very nice! You did everything right, brackets and all, I'll bet she rides great, and hooks too!

 

EXACTLY WHAT HE SAID!!!!!
