Default Re: What Does a Forum Do for You?

To me it's the idea of sharing the knowledge, pain and pleasure of ownership is what the forum is about.

I choose to fix rather than yank. I choose not to put the playing card on the spokes like I did when I was 10 but revel in reading the accounts of those that do. My car is somewhere between a NCRS garage queen and a full on NASCAR race ready bling mobile complete with stick ons that look like headlights.

Secondaries (fixed by me)
ZF6 (rebuilt by me)
FX3 (fixed by me)
Clutch plate, stock (installed by me)
Slave Clutch cyl (new installed by me)
Alternator (fixed by me)
AC (converted to 134 by me)
Coils (replace by me)
Brakes (rebuilt by me)
Breather bezel (opened up by me)
Breather accordion (reinforced by me)
Head lights (fixed by me)
Door bell circuit (fixed by me)
Tire Sensors (fixed by me)
After market alarm and remote door opener (added by me)
Front bushings (replaced by me)
Seat lumbar (fixed by me)
Air bag sensors (fixed by me)
Radiator Screen (added by me)
DIC cover w/LT5 emblem (added by me)
Antenna (rebuilt by me)
Rubber plenum gaskets (created and installed by me)
Door sills (added by me)
Bose Amps (repaired by me)
CD player (repaired by me)
Custom Floor mats (created by me)
Wheels Polished to shine (by me)
TB (replaced by me)
Grounding bolts above tranny (removed and cleaned by me)
Fuel pumps (replaced by me)
Fuel sender (repaired by me)
Secondary vacuum pump (repaired by me)
After market fog lamps (added by me)
Shot shifter mod made to stock shifter (by me)
Ash tray clean (not thrown away by me)
back up switch (repaired by me)
Clutch switch (repaired by me)
Fuel pump hot wire switch to enable FP2 (added by me)
Fuel pump switch added to the test lead (by me)
DRM chip (bought by me
Corsa Exhaust (same thing as putting a playing card on my spokes.....added by me)


Next project is to replace the under hood lights with LED lights.
They'll be brighter and use 1/50th the power.
LONG LIVE THE ZR-1 and those that keep her going!

Well you've heard of WAZOO and FBI ?
Well ME is "My Entertainment"
Everything fix, replace, rebuilt, added or repaired by "my entertainment".
In fact the only time the car has ever been in someone's shop is for dyno, new tires or an alignment.
All the screw-ups are mine too

Default Re: What Does a Forum Do for You?

Wow! My list is pretty short it seems!

ball joints
Spicer U-joints
trans seal
Fidanza aluminum FW
sprung - hub clutch disc
new ZR-1 pressure plate
plenum, IHs, heads ported (by me) according to FBI models
Haibeck chip and tune
Cam timing by Pete the Greek and Bob G
C-beam plates (love 'em)
Stainless works 2" primary LT headers
Stainless Works "x" pipe
3" exhaust tubing to Magnaflow muffs (reminds me...I need to get with Al to install the DynaMax and tips he's holding for me...)
new red carpet with black accents
standard 95 Vette black seats (hated the 90 sport seats - a personal thing)
cooling fan and fusible links
chrome A-molds
sans secondaries

Comming attractions:

63mm TB
4.10 rear gear
fresh Nittos (555s, methinks)
391 cid AES conversion (long way off just now, less I hit the lottery)

P.

This forum and the BG Gathering have helped me to make some good friends and absorb all I can about the ZR-1.

It's also interesting to see the views of others when it comes to modding vs no modding.
