Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

That is great information. I finished reading Heart of the Beast not too long ago and recall that the potential of the LT-5 had not fully been achieved. I’ve wanted a ZR-1 since 1990, I remember...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

It’s a nice car, I remember seeing the pics of it. I must admit, I am partial to the later style seats in the Z (‘94-‘95), they provide a little more back/shoulder support for me. I can...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

Sage advice, thank you. There are too many questions about this particular car, I’m steering away from it and will focus on moving to a ‘94. Time IS a factor for me, I work a lot and my job...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

If it’s the car I’m thinking of, it’s a red car with a white stripe and a ZR-1 “splash logo”. From what I remember seeing here on the Registry, it appeared to be a well-sorted car.

Thank you, this is great information, I was not aware of the storage bag. In the past I have seen the tie-downs in photos, but never any images of the bag.

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

It’s small world, what a great looking Z you have! I especially like the color, I currently have a Polo Green/Light Beige LT-4. The start I experienced with the ‘91 was accompanied by significant...

Re: LT5 Lettering Refresher

What about using a liquid mask, such as what model builders use? It’s used to mask-off areas they wish to protect from overspray/paint. Liquid mask can be applied with a brush. Once its dry, spray...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

That’s a shame the owner has to go through that, I’m sure they work hard for their money and it sounds as if it’s adding up to be quite a bit of out-of-pocket money.

To compare as best I...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

Thank you for your input KILLSHOTS. I agree with you, this car does have the potential to be a money pit; from the bolster to other items such as the loose steering column, I think you are on-point....

Thank you, sir. I have noticed Bosch filters adorning LT-5 engines here on the Registry. Was not aware of Amsoil as a go to to reduce cam chain noise, that is great info. In regards to the color, the...

Thanks for the input! The shaking cans of spray paint is a good description of the sound I experienced. I confirmed it was a cold start by placing my hand on the engine before starting the car.

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

Thank you, this was helpful. What I experieced was not a distinct rattle or clatter but vibration with a “bumping sound”. If I have time tomorrow, I can inquire about the injectors. The dealer...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

Would have to agree. From everything I’ve read in this forum over the years, I’m amazed at the level of support and effort ZR-1 owners will go to help one another. This is a very tight-knit...

Re: Opinions on this ‘91 please.

Wow! Thank you, this is a great checklist. The noise upon start up, I don’t know if it was generated by the timing chain or not. I currently do not have enough experience with the LT-5 to know if...

Went to look at this ‘91 this afternoon, it’s number 360. It’s a one owner car, unmodified with the exceptions of an update to ‘92-‘96 exhaust and Hella headlights. The body is straight,...
